Troubled Time
We all enter into troubled time
Human breathing makes a giant cloud
But we've got to try...
Every new step leaves a drier ground Buildings growing leave less room to smile
But we can slow it down...
So please
Look all around The trees are calling you
And please
See and think wisely
While we step into darkness.
Why would we prefer solid to stone Why put walls on every place we live in
Cause we're just fragile beasts...
Now the earth comes knocking on your door And there's no god to protect us from fate
So we can stop all prayers...

Good days are gone
Oh I know how lonely you can feel
And I know 'cause it's the same for me
How really close we used to be
Now there's just nothing (else) but spiel
Oh I know I should have kept things up
Simply be strong but I screwed up
I know you tried to let me know
As your pain grows with every blow
How many games we used to play
We won, we lost but now we pray
Could we really be someone else's
I wonder, I wonder, I wonder...

Poison
You lie to me
And I'm falling into darkness.
God what a blow
To get to know this long after it's done
And now you cry
You cry for a loss, so painful loss.
I should have tried
I should have cried
I should have died
But I'm still here, with you again.
I've got a lie
Running through my veins
Sucking my blood and bringing me pain
End of the lie
This is life
I let it fly away...
No matter how
No matter now
I'll be by your side
I've got a lie
Running through my veins
Sucking my blood and bringing me pain

Stupid cupido
Sweet love I'm sorry not to be
The angel you were dreaming of
But such a stupid cupido
Such a stupid cupido
I get so easily wounded
By the holy poisoned arrows
I want my heart to be stronger
When it's only smooth
Sweet love I'm not one of the brave
King of angels you were counting on
But such a stupid cupido
Such a stupid cupido
I wish I could, I wish
I wish I could, for you and me...

How Strange Is The Man

How strange is the man
From place to place
He roams, he roams
Blown by the wind
Raised from ashes
From light to dark
He writes, he writes
Whatever he lives
Carving out the word
How strange is the man
Drifting down the road
He carries on his back
Pages and pages
For fear and love
He fights, he fights
With tears and gloves
With piercing eyes
From time to time
He talks, he talks
With anyone
Who shakes his hand
How strange is the man
Drifting for ages
Been raised from the ground
Word by word
Day by day.

Waiting For My Soul II

Waiting For My Soul
I am waiting for my soul
To rise up
I am waiting for new bones
To be my shelter
I want to feel the wind again
Upon my soft and fresh skin
I want to touch the grass again
With those fragile little hands of mine
I want to smile and cry again
Taste my own salted tears
I've been waiting for too long Turn to dust under the ground
I am only a thought, a whisper
No longer known in any lands
But I still remain somewhere And far under the ground
I'm listening...

Cherry Plum Angers, France
Cherry Plum's world is one of warm, richly coloured folk music with a hint of blues, which brings to mind stripped-bare
movie landscapes.
A world of two flavours, bittersweet, where beating hearts collide plaintively, sensually, lusciously. The dream of 2 men exploring the depths of their inner selves.
