Black Black 03:08
Black Black Everything Everything Bye bye Everyone Everyone When I woke up you were holding me You were holding me Don’t just smile I’m at the end of the isle Watching the stars blow by The stars blow by Red Red You’re in my head You’re in my head There’s a fire in the building There is sun when it is windy Blue Blue Everything Northern California Kiss it all goodbye There’s a fire in the building There is sun when it is windy Black Black Everything

Mr. Cohen 03:11
Living in a blue suit Hallelujah California Smile like a buddha Viva has a new dress Leonard Tea and oranges Lorca in the front room She misses you She misses you She misses you Sing it like a poem We want it darker Come down from the mountain Viva has a new dress It’s the saddest song in the world and I relate It’s the saddest song in the world and I relate I gave my heart to a girl a bit too late It’s the saddest song in the world and I relate Leonard Living in a blue suit Hallelujah Lorca in the front room She misses you She misses you She misses you

Snowflake 02:52
You are a snowflake In a crowd Didn’t anyone tell you That is not allowed It started on a holiday Ended in a white cloud You’re alright You’re alright now Come on and dance with me Until our clothes fall off Stay here and dance with me Until our clothes fall off Until our clothes fall off Until our clothes fall off I’m from the USA I wanna sleep today You are a snowflake In a crowd Didn’t anyone tell you That is not allowed It started on a holiday Ended in a bedroom You’re so pure But I forgive you Come on and dance with me Until our clothes fall off Stay here and dance with me Until our clothes fall off Until our clothes fall off Until our clothes fall off I’m from the USA I wanna sleep today

In a violent summer In a violent summer You sit home Here comes a wave Here comes a wave Here comes a wave In a violent summer In a violent scene Here comes a wave Here comes a wave I sit at home In the kitchen Anyway There goes my pay There goes my pay There goes my pay In a violent scene There goes my pay Here comes a wave

You owe me 02:47
The way I see it You owe me You owe me The way I see it You owe me You owe me For the drinks For that bracelet For the moment we met and the summer we split For the bones in the basement And the fights, fights, fight, fight Stay with me one more night The way I see it You owe me The way I see it You owe me You owe me For that ring For those dances For the shade For the sunlight For the beaches in the South And the peaches in your mouth You owe me

Jacob 02:46
Jacob woke up hungry He opened his frog heavy eyes Into a cluttered room around him With all the blankets that surround him There’s a thief behind a painting He’s always there Forever waiting Jacob woke up hungry Like a ghost between a sheet He only wanted a warm meal And a better place to live And a woman from the Bible With a sacred golden rib Jacob woke up hungry Like a spider in a cage Into a cluttered room around him He could see his knuckles bleeding He heard the rain on the ceiling He only wanted a real life And a better place to live And a woman on a desert island And all she could give

Move me 03:22

What I like about me I’m making records in France Staying light on my feet It’s a real romance What I like about me I really know how to dance I know how to dance I know how Because it’s easy I know how to dance I know how It’s easy What I like about me is I’m staying out on the street I’m not falling to pieces No not me Hell yeah! I like the way she sees me Hell yeah! I like the way she sees me What I like about me I’m leaving nothing to chance I don’t know how to dress But I know how to dance I know how to dance I know how Because it’s easy I know how to dance I know how It’s easy

Lorsque je fais taire le monde extereiur Le monde interieur s’allume La est la musique Ici se trove une chanson infinie When the outside world is quiet The inside world turns on That’s where all the music is There’s the endless song

Tell me a story A poem The truth Until the day you love me you love me I promise I will wait for you And hold my breath Until the day you love me Buy me a river I’ll pull you across Until the day you love me Always close But never near Always right But never clear Why are you Always home But never here Give me a signal Your poem Your curse Until the day you love me you love me Break the door Climb the stair Ring the bell I never saw two people who Fit so well I never saw two people who Fit so well Until the day you love me you love me Until the day you love me you love me Until the day you love me you love me I’ll wait Until the day you love me you love me I’ll wait Until the day you love me you love me I’ll wait

I remember sugar things Dairy queens and burger kings Men who wanted everything Money lies And music sings Power lines Ferris wheels Buddha saves Jesus steals Cigarettes Burning beds My god is blue My Satan’s red I show my love I show my love Exactly the way that I was shown love J. U. S. T D. O. N. T I.T. Everything is changing Come and lay beside me J. U. S. T D. O. N. T I.T Maybe Everything is changing There’s a bird inside me I am in Follow rules Another world But what if not Give me back A living thing My morphine drops A rifle shot Asleep behind Power lines A steering wheel Ferris wheels A turning road Buddha saves A wall of trucks And Jesus steals I show my love I show my love I show my love Exactly the way that I was shown love J. U. S. T D. O. N. T I.T. Everything is changing Come and lay beside me J. U. S. T D. O. N. T I.T. Maybe Everything is changing There’s a bird inside me

Other people 01:55
You walked in and I knew for sure other people’s beauty is something we have to endure sometimes I wish I could look away A face in the crowd that hits like a nail in the floor sometimes I wish I could look away other people’s beauty is something we have to endure and live with it

End Crazy 03:50
It ends like crazy You’re not alone Your email saved me The prince is home It ends like crazy No means no The future’s hazy Put down your phone But what have I got to show When I come home While we’re still here While we’re still here While we’re still here It ends like crazy You’re not alone Your email saved me The prince is home

Our love will surely burn With the trash in the gutter One thing that I learned Our love with surely burn Our love with surely burn Wait, wait a minute You move me so much Wait, wait a minute You move me so much Wait, wait a minute You move me so much If we make it to the spring With the crack in the pavement You made the rain wet Then flooded everything I thought I saw you walk In the grass and the clover When the Holy choir begins I wish it was over Wait the cars they love you so much I’ll wait for you at the bar In the strobing light strobing light Wait, wait a minute You move me so much Wait, wait a minute You move me so much

about

This album was written, recorded, and mixed in La Creuse, France by TvB on a bunch of old gear, going into Protools 9 on a 2009 macbook with 4gb RAM. It was magical to spend time with these songs and bring them to life. This is what it sounds like inside my head. Maybe our landscapes can meet.
