Can I Keep Him - Lyrics - Anja Garbarek

Title: Can I Keep Him
Artist: Anja Garbarek
Composer(s): Anja Garbarek, Gisli Kristjansson

Lyric:
In the end there was no one to see
No helicopters in the sky the next day
Or the day after no one was searching
'Cause no one knew he was missing

He followed me home
Can I keep him?
He followed me

A pretty boy like you
With hands that could break me in two but don't
Breaking away gently
Come on, let's go

He's still warm
And close to me
I can see tears in his eyes
And I feel better

He followed me home
Can I keep him?
He followed me

In the end there was no one to see
No helicopters in the sky the next day
Or the day after no one was searching
'Cause no one knew he was missing

My Fellow Riders - Lyrics - Anja Garbarek

Title: My Fellow Riders
Artist: Anja Garbarek
Composer(s): Anja Garbarek, Gisli Kristjansson

Lyric:
Pleasantly removed
Into lush darkness
Into the dreamless place
I begin to sing this song

Staying loud enough
To drown out any noise
In presence of strangers
I begin to sing this song

It appears to be done
For the pleasure of the doing
But I'm in no better shape
Than my fellow riders

Every now and then
I'm slipping back again
Empty and mortal
I begin to sing this song

My mind is moving fast
Trying to make connections
Taking shortcuts
Noting events

Listing all, filing away
Along with opinions
Making connections
Taking shortcuts
Noting events

Listing all, filing away
Along with opinions
Making connections
Taking short-cuts
Noting events

Listing all, filing away
Along with opinions
Making connections
Taking shortcuts

It appears to be done
For the pleasure of the doing
But I'm in no better shape
Than my fellow riders

It appears to be done
For the pleasure of the doing
But I'm in no better shape
Than my fellow riders

It appears to be done
For the pleasure of the doing
But I'm in no better shape
Than my fellow riders

It appears to be done
For the pleasure of the doing
But I'm in no better shape
Than my fellow riders

It appears to be done
For the pleasure of the doing
But I'm in no better shape
Than my fellow riders

Word Is Out - Lyrics - Anja Garbarek

Title: Word Is Out
Artist: Anja Garbarek
Composer(s): Anja Garbarek, Gisli Kristjansson

Lyric:
Only for a second do they freeze
It's too easy to do it up here
Just a gentle push and you'd be over the edge
So they let you slip in and out of sight

There is no moon
There is no breeze
And this won't turn out
The way you please

This place has been crossed many times
Never was there cause for worry
But there's creatures living here now
Who pray on anything that moves

There is no moon
There is no breeze
And this won't turn out
The way you please

Stop and strain your ears
It's scarcely more than a whisper
Still the word is out

You shoot to attention
You shoot to attention
Recognition is immediate
Recognition is immediate
Answering is an instinctive reaction
Answering is an instinctive reaction

There is no moon
There is no breeze
And this won't turn out
The way you please

There is no moon
There is no breeze
And this won't turn out
The way you please

'Cause no matter what was said
You know you're dead

Sleep - Lyrics - Anja Garbarek

Title: Sleep
Artist: Anja Garbarek
Composer(s): Anja Garbarek, Gisli Kristjansson

Lyric:
And it is so strange
With these eyes out into darkness
And it is so strange
All they want to do is sleep

And it is so strange
They want to sleep through silence
And it is so strange
'Cause I am wide awake

And it is so strange
How all this could be over
If you would walk in
If you put me to rest

And it is so strange
That my voice seems to have gone quiet
And even stranger still
That I never will be found

All I want to do
Is to drift away
Hush-a-bye, baby
All I want to do is go to sleep
To sleep, to sleep, to sleep

Dizzy With Wonder - Lyrics - Anja Garbarek

Title: Dizzy With Wonder
Artist: Anja Garbarek
Composer(s): Anja Garbarek, Gisli Kristjansson

Lyric:
There were buildings here long ago
But now the blade of grass cuts my feet
I proceed with caution and lay low
Just visible through the trees

Breathing carefully, I crawl up
Onto the surface of tension
I glimpse the rocks from below
What I see will never be mentioned

Dizzy with wonder
I shake my head to clear the view
With a hunger to know
I come to this place to be close to you

Dizzy with wonder
I shake my head to clear the view
With a hunger to know
I come to this place to be close to you
Close to you, close to you
(Lit, lit, lit, lit, lit)

Lit from inside, I go to the switch
I rise quickly from the dark
Through white clouds that I tear apart
Releasing drops of water all over

Dizzy with wonder
I shake my head to clear the view
With a hunger to know
I come to this place to be close to you

Dizzy with wonder
I shake my head to clear the view
With a hunger to know
I come to this place to be close to you

Dizzy with wonder
I shake my head to clear the view
With a hunger to know
I come to this place to be close to you

Dizzy with wonder
I shake my head to clear the view
With a hunger to know
I come to this place to be close

Shock Activities - Lyrics - Anja Garbarek

Title: Shock Activities
Artist: Anja Garbarek
Composer(s): Anja Garbarek, Gisli Kristjansson

Lyric:
The street's reaching up to the open window
Too much information leaks in and shoots up my spine
Lifting my head off the pillow
And the dust rises when I set my feet on the floor

I breathe in and out while I try to focus
When I feel okay I twist my mouth
To save what little air is left

'Cause it's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions
It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

To survive, to survive, to survive
This situation, situation, situation, situation
To survive, to survive, to survive
This situation, situation, situation, situation

I keep far away but I'm missing nothing
My eyes are an endless panorama of blue
There's nothing here to block my view
And with a sideways glance
I am shown as much as I want to see

'Cause it's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions
It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

In full motion, no variation
This need for speed
The notion of convulsion
This seed of greed

Shock activities, lack of memories
Don't wanna be
Cannot see
Anything wrong with the picture

'Cause it's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions
It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

To survive, to survive, to survive
This situation, situation, situation, situation
To survive, to survive, to survive
This situation, situation, situation, situation

'Cause it's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions
It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions
It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions
It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions
It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions
It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions
It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

It's a question of constructing
An imitation of conditions

The Last Trick - Lyrics - Anja Garbarek

Title: The Last Trick
Artist: Anja Garbarek
Composer(s): Anja Garbarek, Gisli Kristjansson

Lyric:
From standing to crouching, silently falling
Falling from nowhere to nowhere
Nothing between, nothing beyond
Nothing behind the stars

And this is the last trick I'll do
The sound can be seen
This is the main title
Briefly shaking

It's the last trick I'll do
The sound can be seen
This is the main title
Briefly shaking

Remain for some time down here below
Allowing the doubt to feed upon me
And even the ones who've never been
Are climbing the wall up ahead

I get up, start crawling into the same
Over and over and over again
Smelling the plastic, smelling the spit
And smelling my own breath

This is the last trick I'll do
The sound can be seen
This is the main title
Briefly shaking

It's the last trick I'll do
Sound can be seen
This is the main title
Briefly shaking

The presence convincing
That most of what I've written is false
I mention this 'cause I'm talking
In the light of what's [Incomprehensible]
I get out of the sun

And this is the last trick I'll do
Sound can be seen
This is the main title
Briefly shaking

It's the last trick I'll do
Sound can be seen
This is the main title
Briefly shaking

It's the last trick I'll do
Sound can be seen
This is the main title
Briefly shaking

It's the last trick I'll do
The sound can be seen
This is the main title
Briefly shaking

It's the last trick I'll do
Sound can be seen
This is the main title
Briefly shaking

It's the main title
All together now
Everybody

This Momentous Day - Lyrics - Anja Garbarek

Title: This Momentous Day
Artist: Anja Garbarek
Composer(s): Anja Garbarek, Gisli Kristjansson

Lyric:
On this momentous day curious seduction
The most striking thing
Changes color and its shape
Hissing words of no safety any more

On this momentous day
Already in position
So delicate so clean, I forget to leave
And my name has long, long gone

Hey James, if you wish the race is on
Hey James, if you please the chase is on
I'm ready, ready, ready to recall
I'm ready, ready, ready to recall the visual

On this momentous day
The story's in the background no need to tell
I've got shadows crossing my face
As I run my hands along

On this momentous day
Seems to have cracked wide open
Leaving nothing left to dream, I hear myself scream
Is this land or more sky

Did you notice that we moved
Moved fast along this thin strip flashing
Do you think we were followed here, follow me
'Cause there'll be no flight, there'll be a killing

Hey James, if you wish the race is on
Hey James, if you please the chase is on
I'm ready, ready, ready to recall
I'm ready, ready, ready to recall
I'm ready, ready, ready to recall
I'm ready, ready, ready to recall the visual

On this momentous day
No effort is made
No visible sign of any kind
That this will ever end

Still Guarding Space - Lyrics - Anja Garbarek

Title: Still Guarding Space
Artist: Anja Garbarek
Composer(s): Anja Garbarek, Gisli Kristjansson

Lyric:
Hums of conversation
Lip glows
One leg crossed
Driven back into this corner

It is the same when I leave
As when I come
On a higher or lower frequency
It means nothing to me

'Cause it's the same when I leave
As when I come
On a higher or lower frequency
It means nothing to me

Watch me turn the volume down
It's always cold before the last day
Still guarding space
Snow piled up by the road to my house

The one time I tried, it was a fine view
Through and across
Then there was restlessness
And in that movement
I dressed in the light from outside

It is the same when I leave
As when I come
On a higher or lower frequency
It means nothing to me

'Cause it's the same when I leave
As when I come
On a higher or lower frequency
It means nothing to me

'Cause it's the same when I leave
As when I come
On a higher or lower frequency
It means nothing to me

'Cause it's the same when I leave
As when I come
On a higher or lower frequency
It means nothing to me

This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me

This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
