Star in daylight

A star in daylight
And the sunlight held him like an angel in it’s arms
as he looked up to the sky and saw the star,
almost crazy feeling flustered but cold
his eyes were opened to the world..
He lay down alone in a state of fear
of what may come of him for knowing
he sat there kind of feeling priveliged but proud
to be the only one who knew
A star in daylight sitting peaceful in the sky,
hoping, waiting for the world to settle down
it’s unseeable to all of us but him
And he crawled away to face his fear
to find the reason for his knowing,
his eyes were open and his arms outstretched
he never knew where he was going..
A star in daylight sitting peaceful in the sky,
hoping, waiting for the world to settle down
it’s unseeable to all of us but him
And he was taken somewhere on his own
by an imaginary train
he never said if he was happy in the end,
and he was never seen again.
A star in daylight sitting peaceful in the sky,
hoping, waiting for the world to settle down
it’s unseeable to all of us but him
to be the only one who knew,
his eyes were open to the world,
and he was never seen again...

Nothing to say.
Your thoughts drown.. in a cup in your hand.
And oh.. it´s full of the sea,
you´re facing a sea storm.. swimming away,
it´s just the feeling, deep down below.
Your footsteps sink in a box full of snow.
And oh.. it´s cold like the sea,
you´re facing a snow storm, running away,
you don´t want to freeze now, with nothing to say.
Say, why there´s nothing to say..
why explain what you know.
You´re always fighting the storms in your mind,
looking for somewhere to go..
You´re walking under a sky full of clouds,
and oh.. it´s going to rain,
you´re facing a thunderstorm.. walking away,
you´re wet and you´re lonely, with nothing to say...
Say, why there´s nothing to say..
why explain what you know.
You´re always fighting the storms in your mind,
looking for somewhere to go..
You´re lying under a lonely tree.
You´re looking up to the leaves.
And then there´s an earthquake.. it sweeps you away,
and so you said nothing, with nothing to say.
Say, why there´s nothing to say..
why explain what you know.
You´re always fighting the storms in your mind,
looking for somewhere to go..
somewhere to go...

Painting the clouds
I'm painting the clouds, sometimes I wish you'd go away
other times I think it would be nice if you could stay
stay with me
so I´m painting the clouds, to a translucent colour I can't see
almost as if I'm hiding them from me
pushing them out of my mind
and now you're painting my clouds, I didn't ask for you to do so.
don't paint my clouds!
sometimes I wish you’d go away.
other times I think it would be nice if you could stay
stay with me.
