Simple answers, where can I subscribe?
I’ve been laying down so long I’ve died
At least in your mind
I tower above you my little friend
I’m a giant in your world and you want me dead
Hmmm…cold clear night
Hmmm…winter is nigh
Way up in the mountains I came across
A man covered in nothing but some moss
He said he was boss
I tower above you my little friend
I’m a giant in your world and you want me dead
Hmmm…cold clear night
Hmmm…winter is nigh
At your tables love
I can’t keep losing
Though King Darwin’s dead
He’s still choosing
Without my baby girl
There’s nothing that I would not do
So I killed you tonight
Clawed your face and lit a fire
Only when nature calls for blood
Will you wonder if it’s been enough
For the dead I sing
For my next of kin
For a baby born
Into a world forlorn
For the dead I sing
For my next of kin
For a baby born
Into a world forlorn

Dead Out Of Time

I am a broken man apart
I hurt but will not lie to you
I am what I am
Just a sham
I count a hundred things we could do without
We both, we brought them home with us
Now home is just a place
To feel alone
I fear I’m losing the light
I’m dead out of time
And everything just melts into the dark
I’m losing this fight
Just ’cause I’m tired
Of my few words never being right
You are so beautiful in my heart
The stars in your eyes I see
But I can’t breathe
And I can’t leave ’cause of the
Fear I’m losing the light
I’m dead out of time
And everything just melts into the dark
I’m losing this fight
Just ’cause I’m tired
Of my few words never being right
Right…
I fear I’m losing the light
I’m dead out of time
And everything just melts into the dark
I’m losing this fight
Just ’cause I’m tired
Of my few words never being right
I am a broken man apart
The stars in your eyes I see
All you’ve done, all you’ve been
Just a dream

I’m a little bit hurt
I’m a little bit lost
That you don’t know Madonna
I’m a little bit baffled for us all
I’m a little bit shocked
I’m a little bit awed
By your whole generation
This shit don’t fly and never will
Got a few more words for you
Roll down your window
And cover your ears
You will not like what
You’re going to hear
All the love I had for you just went out the window
All the love I had for you is d-d-dead, d-d-dead
Wish it was more trouble, but it’s really that simple
My love, my love, my love, my love is dead and gone
There’s a thing you should know
And I’m telling you straight
’Cause I don’t want you not knowing
So let me lay it out for you
I only listen to Oasis
Not because they are the greatest
Though they are but that is not my point here
It’s that you don’t know who they are
But somehow still know Wonderwall
Roll down your window
And cover your ears
You will not like what
You’re going to hear
All the love I had for you just went out the window
All the love I had for you is d-d-dead, d-d-dead
Wish it was more trouble, but it’s really that simple
My love, my love, my love, my love is dead and gone
Fly away, little bird
Fly away, yes, you heard
Slide away, songbird
Fly away, yes, you heard
All the love I had for you just went out the window
All the love I had for you is d-d-dead, d-d-dead
Wish it was more trouble, but it’s really that simple
My love, my love, my love, my love is dead and gone

Suiciders

I never really paid much mind
To some of my friends talking suicide
It’s just a thing we talk about
And no-one ever acts it out
But that just ain’t the truth no more
The other day I sunk to the floor
What if I never got back up
Would anyone care for what was lost?
Oh Jesus, will you let me drown?
I don’t think I’m well to do
But thanks for asking how ’bout you?
I know you’re never well yourself
But today I’d like you to help
This sure as hell ain’t just a phase
I’m telling you I’ve lost that race
The race for happiness and pride
Neither of which stick by my side
Oh Jesus, will you let me drown?
I don’t think I’m well to do
But thanks for asking how ’bout you?
I know you’re never well yourself
But today I’d like you to help me lose
This aching blues with you
I don’t think I’m well to do
But thanks for asking how ’bout you?
I know you’re never well yourself
But today I’d like you to help
’Cause I don’t want to spend my days
Listening to people with nothing to say
And I don’t like spending my nights
Contemplating suicide

Hate, it sounds so biblical
No, what I feel must be a chemical
Sometimes I’m high just like the Jesus kin
Right now I’m down with all the rest of men
Heaven’s gates open up just to rain on me
You wish you saw it in me
A love so watered down
Yeah, nothing’s gonna sting me
I’m gonna wait it out
Love, it sounds so casual
I heart you not, please switch to manual
Everyone expects only the greatest things
Of themselves and the world they’re dreaming in
Heaven’s gates open up just to piss on them
You wish you saw it in me
A love so watered down
Yeah, nothing’s gonna sting me
I’m gonna wait it out
’Cause all the people here
They’ve all found a way
And I’ll follow them right into our doom
Yeah I’m down
With all these other men
Yeah I’m down
And I don’t know what to believe in anymore
You wish you saw it in me
A love so watered down
’Cause all the people here
They’ve all found a way
And I’ll follow them right into our doom

The Fisherman & The Sea Helsinki, Finland
From Finland – a country that allegedly holds more metal bands than park rangers are able to rescue from their gothic photoshoots in the hinterlands, and where disoriented polar bears roam downtown shopping centres – hail singer-songwriter Jon Eden and his band. His roots also put him in Hamburg, Germany thus planting him somewhere in the Baltic Sea in compromise – hence the name of the band. ... more
