[robbyrharris]

Can I get 'dem lyrics for Sunlandic?

I think I got most of them figured out, but damn, not all of them..

I can't wait to buy it next Tuesday!!!

[the_sleeping_friend]

I don't think they have been published anywhere yet. Maybe people can start writing them down and we can all try to sort them out.

[Freek]

they have been published, in the japanese cd. I''m not gonna write all of them down, so if you want to know some, let me know which parts

[the_sleeping_friend]

yeah, landscape in your dream and wraith pinned the... would be much appreciated

[Freek]

from the japanese cd:


I was a landscape in your dream

what kind of comedy is this all of the danger you've discovered
what kind of comedy is this how can you say now you're frightened
you labeled me in forty tries and in case you didn't realize
I was a landscape in your dream and all my mountains were on fire

what kind of labyrinth is this that we're constructing through talking
what kind of labyrinth is this that sends you laughing without smiling
age brings a sad little surprise and in case you didn't realize
while you were calculating tears my head expired


wraith pinned...

let's have bizarre celebrations
let's forget who, forget what, forget where
we'll have bizarre celebrations
I'll play the satir in cyprus you the bride being stripped bare
let's pretend we don't exist
let's pretend we're in antarctica

let's have bizarre celebrations
let's forget when, forget what, forget how
we'll have bizarre celebrations
we'll play tristan and isolde but make sure I see white sails

maybe I'll never die I'll just keep growing younger with you
and you'll grow younger too
now it seems too lovely to be true but I know the best things always do

let's pretend we don't exist
let's pretend we're in antarctica

do you got "Requiem for m.m.2" ?
I liked the "I don't need a photograph / Cause you never left my mind."
But I cant figure out a lot of parts

[Euphrates]

Requiem for OMM2, just based on me listening and typing it out:

When I met you I was just a kid, hadn't built up my defenses
So I gave my heart completely, vaseline over the lenses.

Memories don't go away, I remember everyday.

I never ever stop wondering, wondering if you still think of us.
I don't need a photograph, cuz' you've never left my mind.
No, you've never left my mind.

I remember feeling like a ship, who's captain was too drunk to steer.
And you watched as I was sinking, waving sadly by the pier.

Memories don't go away, I remember everyday.

I never ever stop wondering, wondering if you still think of us.
I don't need a photograph, cuz' you've never left my mind.
No, you've never left my mind.

It's such a burden to carry 'round, the vestiges of dead dreams.
And I don't want to make a wake out of my life,
I just have to let you go.

(edit: Thanks freek, good call! I fixed the lyrics above accordingly)

"waving sadly from the pier", but for the rest it's the same as in the booklet!

[Harnk]

Waving Sally from the pier..is how I heard it.

[lowlow]

forecast fascist future... and so begins our alabee.... PLEASE... those are my 2 favorites

[robbyrharris]

Thanks you guys. Is there a site with all of them yet?

[Freek]

forecast fascist future

the language of the frost lobs dead balloons over ruins today
in view of wan (is this a typo in the booklet? english is not my native tongue, but it seemed a typo to me) wordless crowds that chase waifs to spires with fiery plumes
and incite the firmament's portrait of "A drowning in Styx" that gives impotent kicks

boredom murders the heart of our age while sanguinary creeps take the stage
boredom strangles the life from the printed page

masking vapor trails from Mercury for a killer on Umbrial
who crippled birch mares now briars replace their old cotton limbs
who will tell? I mean would it make a difference?
look metal flowers petal tears do not even appear in the Myopic Mirror

the moon was sagging in the sky as I held her face to mine
all our thoughts were coming in so clear beyond the Myopic Mirror
we were darting from the place where we just couldn't fit
for away from all the violence safely flying in our own orbit

why do I always have to tell you "forget about the prescient sings"
"forget about the life we knew"

may we never be stripped of anything we love
may we grow so gentle never get mental
may we never go go mental
may we always stay stay gentle

what was my number? 114395? I don't care
no no no no no

So begins our alabee

and so begins our odyssey
and we begin our odyssey
and so begins begins our odyssey

the aria is bleeding and the boyish voice is leaving
I've been an evil tenor I filled the innocents doe eyes with glue
you're my only softness you're my only pleasure it's true
and I never want to be your little friend the abject failure

and so begins...

the chrysalis is breaking and the super ego's waking
I've been a gloomy Petrarch with a quill as weepy as Dido
you're my mousy aesthete you're my buoyant cherub it's true
and I never want to be your little friend the abject failure

[Euphrates]

wan is kinda like melancholy, except I guess maybe a little gloomier? At least that's the sense that I get from the word.
