Fire 04:19
When lights go out, whisper turns to noise My desire’s not you I’d rather count the sheep and fall asleep Room ambience makes me suffocate Things are loud in me I feel that mud cheating on my heart, my heart There’s no fire We're full of empty days and sleepless nights There’s no fire I feel ash So pass it over, man, like you used to do You brought me down for my tears I just wore my heart on my sleeve Fence of the heart leads to mind violence We stayed blind cause of Godot waiting, loon You know there’s no fire You know there’s no fire Waiting for a Godot, loon

Siren 04:13
SIREN Complication, justify, justify Banned temptation, mystify, mystify You have to hide it from your love — is this love? But truth is hidden in your pocket... Messing around like don’t mind me babe Testing the patience of the best you’ve ever had Messing around and heading for the rocks You don’t need no oars because the wind's my servant anyway On your own feel that pleading tone Time is foam filling every bone On your own feel that pleading tone All alone Cigarettes, pity, tears, false promise Empty bed, opened scarves are bleeding Your lame excuses and borrowed phrases bug Your boat is leaning Missing the bounds and calling her spy God knows the best it all smells of a big pile of lies Messing around like don’t mind me babe Testing the patience of the best you’ve ever had so far lust ~ rocks ~ water ~ bottom ~ breath

Witch 04:21
Watch your steps not feet They say nothing can stray Sorcery crept in here You may cast a slur upon me, I pray A shiver ran down my spine, voodoo’s done Frozen lamb is gazing Legs from kerosene Light its limbs like candles ~ no! You may cast a slur upon me, I pray Mills of Gods are turning slowly You can hear their sail-arms creaking Mills of Gods are turning slowly You can feel them grind your bones

Dresden 05:31
DRESDEN Ten to ten howl, grab your toy Lets run down, be a nice boy Don’t look further Now it’s your turn, sow the wind Reap the storm and let all my flesh burn It’s called murder
 What a helpless Goodness if my hands were made of stone What a heartless Goodness if my eyes were made up to be wide open There’s no wolf , there’s no sheep We’re so called humans for whom willows weep For whom the bell tolls it tolls for thee All on the floor, hug your doll Sing her a lullaby, war devours all Father, son holy, spirit, heu mihi!
 I saw people there I felt the weight of grief I heard the noise of pain I heard... Please don’t leave me, do not leave me Heu mihi... Those bells were tolling for thee... I saw people there I heard the noise of prayers I saw people there I heard, I heard

Bare bones 04:15
Some things make me separated from the rest I feel isolated Maybe I strive hard not to disappoint Maybe I care way too much and that’s why I just got to point where I'm lost in solitude I’m stuck in dark I’m scared of those nights of breaks cause I love dreaming Sometimes I can fall asleep calm, it’s because of you but Now I am reconciled of losing and wish not to awake I know you can’t make it better and I know you tried I’m sorry for my blaming letter, peel by peel till naked heart and...
 Bare bones, shields of lashes Night scars, grave is blooming Smooth light, rays are falling down on me Bare bones, shields of lashes reveal... Night scars, grave is blooming in the... Smooth light, rays are falling down on me

Falling and rising, keeping on trying Love drags out all what’s not love Love drags out all what’s not love Love must be more than just peace, fluff and rose It can stand bones, shards and pain overdose It must be further behind towns of foam It can be homeless but feeling the home You are my soulmate and worst enemy You’re good at waking up all ghosts in me You know that moment splitting the world in two You’re my best echo when I’m with you Echo of starving, echo of hunting Bury your eyes and plunge yourself in a fear Go a bit deeper and dive till it’s clear Can’t keep on tying and binding and blaming There is no losing we’re diving for pearls Drag out what’s not love I love you to see all the mess in me Drag out what’s not love

She was a keen girl of the wind, churning blossoms around A light beam of a polar day, seeking for a sun blackout A burning doll made of wax, a phoenix living in the rain A turtledove caught in a trap, grateful for her pain He came and stood in front of her, lighthouse cropped up in a storm Flooding in dried up land, bursting chest of warmth An eagle brought back to life, poison on tongue to kiss A monsoon giving last rites, strong shiver of bliss He took her head in palms and covered her with a wing He cried her glory up and said: Birdie, sing me, sing Love’s blind, love’s deaf, but loud Things are allowed to die, there’s no other way So kill me now to keep it, don’t let it fade away Things are allowed to die, it’s too strong to stay Please, kill me now to keep it, don’t let it fade away No, no ~ Be mine, be mine Be brave ~ Be mine, be mine You fool ~ Be mine, be mine Cause the one who shot first still stays alive... I don’t wanna know what’s it like to lose my friend How it is to be sick of the love, sick of my life in the end I don’t wanna feel what's it like to lose you, my best friend How it is to be sick of the life in the end Kill me now to keep it, don’t let it fade away...

Why are you shaking I feel your fear My arms are comfort My hug is peace So dance with me You come to feel me You feel it inside Why do you defy I’m here on time So dance with me You come to feel me You feel it inside Why do you defy I’m here on time Make love with me

Exit 05:39
You said I’ll stick by you But once I got lost You said „It serves you right“ You called it starry-­‐eyed Cotton candy dream My own lost fight Feeling of losing freedom What’s wrong with my head It can’t feed my soul Feeling of losing freedom Excitement of heart Gives rise to make a goal You can ruin, you can lie, you can trample by back, all the things I live for I keep running You can loot, you can plunder my chest take any trifle there that’s dear to me I keep running You said I’ll stick by you But once I got lost You said „It serves you right“ You called it starry-­‐eyed Cotton candy dream My own lost fight You can ruin, you can lie, you can trample by back, all the things I live for I keep running You can loot, you can plunder my chest take any trifle there that’s dear to me I keep running

about

Beps'n'Johnnies Brno, Czech Republic

The three-piece band, Beps’n’Johnnies from Brno melds three distinct personalities into a wildly satisfying rock’n’roll whole. Driving riffs cut with soulful PJ-like vocals burn up into waves of feedback and skronky noise — a sound drawing from the past but with both eyes fixed firmly on the future. ... more
