king with no throne i am a king with no throne with no land of my own. once loved a woman whose face i forgot now it's a name i love. i wander these forests of concrete with blood on my hands. i am a stranger i am a stranger in my own land in my own land. summer, where did you go? all the light that i have known? i keep secrets to keep you safe and warm. september's pale light i beg you come, shine on my skin. i'm spending my last days of summer, wondering how the rain fell oh my friend, my friend i drank from the well.
2.
rostock/show me where you hide your longing i found a place to live in bowed to the dream of home. home's an illusion. home's an illusion. i found someone to love. loved him fiercely but it wasn't enough. love's an illusion. love's an illusion. but i still say: show me where you hide your longing. a late snow hits the sea my friend i've been weary all day. i've been told life's an illusion. life's an illusion. but i'll always say: show me where you hide your longing. i was blind. i've been blinded by illusion. so, hold my hand till dawn. maybe it's me that you long for and a winter's sun may be risin'. a winter's sun my be risin'. so, beware my friend. 'cause you know in the end we've been blinded.

i'm a bird now i'm a bird now i carve songs out of my bones. someone hurt you you won't know how.
4.
wish you were a hunter wish you were a hunter wild. fierce and reckless killer with a tight grip to my thighs. stab me with a dagger, watch me in my pain. fever in my eyes, cold blood in your veins. i would eat my heart out, throw my soul away, to be right what you aim for, to be a hunter's game. oh, my. marry me a churchman kind. and i'll raise those kids though knowing all beauty must die. sweet breath when they're sleepin', smell of summer skin. sweet mary when they're wheepin', sweet songs when they sin. once i got lost in wild waters, that's where my soul got stained. feeling when feeling's unspoken, words when words are in vain. oh, my.
5.
it's the wind love stood on your doorstep and told you you weren't enough. surely, you're a hunter but not to me. someday i'll see your face in the window of some café. you should have learned what to leave and what to burn. when this ship of mine sank before its time. who stood by? now i live in the belly of a whale. lit by lonely hopes. who said the tide would turn at your choice. it's the wind i serve, my dear. i don't believe true love is set in fear. when this ship of mine sank before its time. who stood by? i serve the wind in my face, blessed by a song you knew too, once. proud to bear nobody's name. oh no, i'll be alone.
