WILD MILD
  • USE IT BEFORE YOU LOSE IT
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/01-Use-It-Before-You-Lose-It.mp3

    When you’re risking to get killed

    You’ll use all your ammunition

    Even if it seems to be built

    On nothing but superstition

     

    Use it before you lose it

     

    The plan was to put bars

    So no one would ever see

    That when you wear your scars

    The stranger stands in front of thee

     

    Use it before you lose it

     

    Asking to learn and teach

    Ploughing for that to grow

    What first was out of reach

    Now rises from below

     

    Use it before you lose it

     

    Your waters are profound

    And so is your soul

    So give her solid ground

    She’ll lead you right to your goal

     

    Use it before you lose it

  • UP TO ME
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/03-Up-To-Me.mp3

    When all around you is changing

    And no-one seems to see the signs you’re making

    The sailor’s curses keep breaking

    This bloody sorrowed ship that you are taking

     

    You should swim back to shore

    You could swim out to sea

    I could swim back to shore

    I should swim out to see

     

    That all around me is changing

    As vessels deep within are taking

    New roads even though no signs were given

    To redirect this life that I was living

     

    I should swim back to shore

    I could swim out to sea

    I could swim back to shore

    I should swim out to see

     

    That structure forms the basis for the function

    I’m slowly pulling off towards the junction

    And choosing my very own direction

    Without the deep need of love’s protection

     

    But the currents keep changing

    ‘cause that’s what they do best

    And frankly they don’t care

    About the rest

     

    I could swim back to shore

    I should swim out to sea

    I should swim back to shore

    Well it’s up to me

  • RAIN AS A REMINDER
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/06-Rain-As-A-Reminder.mp3

    I am part of this world

    The sea and me

    We’re a continuity

    I’m not bound I’m a crystal globe

    I reflect I respond I project I confront

     

    Before I was a child

    I used to grow on plants and herbs

    But then I separated

    Myself from the dirt

     

    Or so I thought I could rise above

    But nothing ever gave me

    That feeling of truth

    But lying on my back

    Feeling the wind

     

    Rain as a reminder

    That I am one

    I am one   (x2)

     

    There’s the silence of my soul

    My own beastlike being

    An awareness

    Of everything

     

    Reflections as flashlights

    Won’t keep me up tonight

    They sinner down below

    Up here it’s high and dry

     

    Rain as a reminder

    That I am one

    I am one   (x2)

     

    I hear them scream

    They can touch me

    But they cannot reach

    This ever being

    Nevertheless

     

    It does not cease with me

    Nor mine nor thine

    Nor theirs or where ever

    It is

    Pure bliss

     

    Rain as a reminder

    That I am one

    I am one   (x2)

  • TIME GIVE ME PEACE
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/02-Time-Give-Me-Peace.mp3

    I do i do i fear the darkness

    And why that is i do not know

    To know what the darkest core of my heart is

    I need time, time to heal this sore

     

    Give me time time give me peace

    Render my mind with ease

    Lift these weights off my back

    Give me time to find what I lack

     

    If I if I could figure out

    What all this craving is about

    Maybe then I could find a way

    To openly live and not fear the day

     

    Give me time time give me peace

    Render my mind with ease

    Lift these weights off my back

    Give me time to find what I lack

     

    Cause as the dark the light is painful

    It shows the true colours of my soul

    And dark and greyish tones

    Are often mistaken for a hole

     

    Give me time time give me peace

    Render my mind with ease

    Lift these weights off my back

    Give me time to find what I lack

     

    Why should I more over we

    Need to hide that what is ugly

    Fix the mind knows what to say

    When Grim Reaper sails our way

     

    Give me time time give me peace

    Render my mind with ease

    Lift these weights off my back

    Give me time to find what I lack

     

    This song may heal it cannot cure

    This pain is not only mine

    It’s a deep wound that marks our time

    It will leave a scar for sure

     

    Give us time time give us peace

    Render our minds with ease

    Lift these weights off our backs

    Give us time to find what we lack

     

    But as an old Indian tale tells me

    A heart that’s whole and pure

    Will further more fail to show me

    The beauty of a heart that can endure

     

    So take my heart and have a bite

    Taste my blood taste my delight

    Replace the piece that you take

    Let mine be a heart that can ache

     

    Give me time time give me peace

    Render my mind with ease

    Lift these weights off my back

    Give me time to find what I lack

  • WATCH THE WOMEN
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/07-Watch-The-Women.mp3

    watch the women

    witnessing slow death

    on arrival

     

    watch the women

    slowly killing them

    on arrival

     

    they cannot hold

    that what they long for

    they cannot let be

    that what is free     (x2)

     

    oh so very proud

    but untameable

    oh so very lovely

    but inflammable     (x2)

     

    I love you I think

    I love you truly

    love is so neurotically

    untrue     (x2)

     

    madness shifts

    my numbers

    and outlaws

    my porch     (x2)

     

    to be run down

    by many

    to be run down by many

    but none     (x2)

     

    it is never

    enough

    it is never

    enough       (x2)

     

    give me

    more

    give me

    many     (x2)

     

    it is not mine

    to carry

    your anger

    your pain and hurt     (x2)

     

    your borders

    are so crossed

    I protect

    mine     (x2)

     

    let’s have a war      (x4)

  • SLEEP BABY SLEEP
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/08-Sleep-Baby-Sleep.mp3

    Sleep baby sleep

    Down where the wrecked ships meet

    Sleep on the ground

    Live with the tides

    Never forget

    How to make your soul feel peace

     

    Do you hear the fireworks

    Are they thrilling you     (x2)

     

    Sleep sweetheart sleep

    Down where lions meet

    Deep in your heart

    The storms will fade

    Never forget

    To remember your name

     

    Do you see the stars

    Are they guiding you     (x2)

     

    Sleep dearest sleep

    Down where strangers meet

    Rest with your head

    And your back on the earth

    Never forget

    She is carrying you

     

    Do you feel your spirit

    Is strong and rising

     

    Sleep sleep sleep sleep sleep

  • THE PLAYGROUND
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/09-The-Playground.mp3

    This is just me

    Just let me be

    I have nothing to offer

    But starlight sometimes

     

    Weak and distant

    But honest

    One galaxy too far

    Threw down a gauntlet

     

    Show me your cigarette

    I look just like it

     

    You know nothing of me

    But what I look like to thee

    You know nothing of how

    It is where I am

     

    I may have gone

    But my light shines on

    You won’t really know

    You can’t really tell

     

    Grant me your wisdom

    Save me your judgment

     

    There’s nothing you know

    That really matters

    Here

    Where I am

     

    Grant me your wisdom

    Save me your judgment

  • ROSITA
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/05-Rosita.mp3

    I banned you into the wild wild woods

    You hurt me so

    I left you and didn’t look back

    I thought I’d get away with it

     

    I thought I could leave you

    And forget you

    I thought I could kill you

    And forget you

     

    But you never left me

    You dwelled deep within

    And you made my body ache

    Thank god you made my body ache

     

    The symptoms grew on me

    I couldn’t but listen and see

    That you were there

    Deep within

     

    And you were feeding on all the things

    I couldn’t digest

    On all I detest

    On all I couldn’t have and fled

     

    So you grew so strong and strong

    Until I could resist no more

    My body fell my soul gave up

    In sweet surrender

     

    And you saved me

    As true as never a friend can be

    I kicked you so you loved me so

    Unconditionally

     

    Dear Rosita dear sweet wild whore

    You murderess

    You priestess

    Of the denied

     

    You never left me

    Not even when I tamed myself

    To silence my wisdom

    You saveguarded my core

     

    This is all I’ll ever need

    If I can let it be

    And evolve into

    Whatever it needs to be

     

    Interrater reliability none

    But this subject’s one

    It is one alright

    It is one that’s won

     

    You never left me

    You never left me

    You never left me

    You never left me

  • LATER ON
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/04-Later-On.mp3

    Later on I told you so

    The show goes on

    It must go to show

    The dream goes on

    The toys are lost

    The game is set

    The rules are taught

     

    Nothing goes to waste

    The hast cuts out the taste

    Nothing goes to waste

    The haste cuts out the taste

     

    Later on you told me so

    The fields will reep

    The seeds I’ve sown

    You told me so

     

    Nothing goes to waste

    The haste cuts out the taste

    Nothing goes to waste

    The haste cuts out the taste

     

    You could put up with me for  a while

    You could stick up with me for a while

    For a while I made you smile

    For a while I can make you smile

  • ARMISTICE
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/10-Armistice.mp3

    You are perfect in many ways

    But that don’t make me less

    So perfect throughout the days

    But just let me confess

     

    That I fell in love with you   (x2)

     

    And by doing that

    I left myself so blue

    ‘cause compared to you

    Myself just would no longer do

     

    That’s how I fell in love with you   (x2)

     

    So I took you in my heart

    Hoping you’d become

    In some weird old way

    A part of me

     

    But I took you in too deep   (x2)

     

    So that I feared the day

    That you would go away

    And fear can run high

    I knew you wouldn’t always stay

     

    So I started to fear you    (x2)

     

    Until it dawned on me

    This is no way to live

    And even though I tried

    I could not truly give

     

    My gifts were like poison   (x2)

     

    They stung deep in my heart

    ‘cause that was where you lived

    And they hurt you too

    So you started to deny my gifts

     

    And then ofcourse you went away    (x2)

     

    So there I was

    With my poisoned heart

    And my tears they ran

    And in some way made me smart

     

    So that I could clearly see    (x2)

     

    That the one I should love

    Is never far from me

    She is always there

    Together we can be free

     

    So I am starting to love myself    (x2)

     

    As the days grow dark

    Deep in my heart I feel

    This growing spark

    Making me feel so real

     

    And I am proud to say

    That I feel okay

  • ANOTHER ILLUSION
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/11-Another-Illusion.mp3

    And I will not move into

    Another illusion

    Until I have found

    Peace in my heart

     

    And this storm goes on

    For whiles and miles

    It shakes my roots

    And tears apart

     

    Destruction serve me

    Be my trigger

    Conducting me into

    Construction

     

    This function will lead

    To newly found grooves

    Out of this I plead

    For constant movement

     

    Right now I move

    Small small small steps

    I tremble and fall

    And get up again

     

    I don’t know where this

    Road takes me

    It frightens me deeply I

    Underestimate me

     

    Failure comes

    To those that stop

    To renew love

    And give up

     

    Fight for your life

    Win this contest

    Fight for your life

    Win this contest

     

    A wolf that knows how to howl

    Will find its pack

    My long lost soul

    Will find its way back

  • THE WOUNDED SOLDIER
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/12-The-Wounded-Soldier.mp3

    My dear my wounded soldier

    The battlefield a galaxy

    That shot you

    And harmed you

     

    I’ll build you a bed

    Soft and warm

    But sleep out in the rain

    If that is what you please

     

    Take your time dear

    Take the time it takes

    To get back

    On your feet

     

    I’ll make you ointments

    To treat your wounds

    I’ll suck out

    The bullets

     

    I’ll stitch your gaps

    And give you new food

    Nourishment

    For now

     

    Take your time dear

    Take the time it takes

    To get back

    On your feet

     

    And tell me if you will

    About the pain

    And how some things

    Never ever go away

     

    I’ll picture you a garden

    Of flowering darling buds

    Colours bright and shiny

    Bricks and ruins overgrown

     

    You showed me the sunsets

    Colouring all red

    And yellow grew the sky

    The anger glows outside

     

    Remind me if you please

    Of the fool on the hill

    He’s living there still

    Living his life in peace

     

    But does he never ever feel

    The longing for a woman

    Does he still the hunger

    How does he? Tell me

     

    I’ll scratch your back dear

    You don’t have to scratch mine

    I’ll scratch your back

    Because I want to

  • THE DOLL SONG
    http://wanderingwoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/13-The-Doll-Song.mp3

    Part one

     

    Wake up my love

    My purest of all lilies

     

    Rise up my love

    And show me who you will be

     

    Stretch your wings

    And do not fear the darkness

     

    You make me sing

    To show the world what love is

     

    Part two

     

    You leave your cage

    Your senses have awoken

     

    It smells so great

    The cookies and the roses

     

    But soon enough

    Much finer airs are rising

     

    You meet your love

    Life is ever so surprising

    Part three

     

    The life of a dancer

    Is moving so quickly

    The ways of the world

    Make you say “pick me”

     

    No-one is waiting

    For you to flower

    But once you have grown

    And shown all your powers

     

    All the world’s a stage

    And no-one can stop your rage

    You feel your blood pounding

    And soon you are rounding

    The edge of the world

     

    That’s when you fall

    And then you call

    On to the

     

    Part four

     

    One power help me to aim

    Help me to aim to aim

    And to pull

    And be as I am

    And be as I am

     

    No dark legends no dark legends

    Obscuring obscuring my light

    No vengeance

    Of myself

    To lay me stretch me out

    You are forever light

    And love for you

    I know not what is love

    What is this

    What is this love

    Is this love     (x 2)

    Part five

     

    You might grow up

    And blossom like a flower

    But soon you are bound

    To kindly retire

     

    The ways of life

    Will trace body and soul

    And sentiments

    Will lead you to see the all

     

    But still you fall

    And still you call

    On to the

     

    Part six

     

    One power help me to aim

    Help me to aim

    And to pull

    And be even more

    As I am

     

    No dark legends

    Obscuring my light

    No vengeance of myself

    To lay me stretch me out

     

    You are forever light

    And love for you

    I know not what is love

    What is this

    What is this love

    Is this love      (x 2)

     

    Part seven

     

    Your movements turn

    Much more to the inside

    Your lips but curve

    To the memory of the past light

     

    Your trembling hands

    Can still recall the touch of love

     

    Oh to be lost

    To be broken

    To feel that what is

    Unspoken of

    Drawing near

     

    Part eight

     

    Then let go my love

    You will flow my love

     

    And you’ll rise again

    The purest of all lilies

     

    You make me sing

    How wonderful this life is
