Asphalt City
02:19
|
|||
In the asphalt city I'm at home from the very start.
Provided with every last sacrament.
I've got brandy, tobacco and newspapers.
To the end, mistrustful, lazy and content.
(Lifted from "Of Poor BB", Bertolt Brecht.)

Kitchen Window
01:37
|
|||
Don't come to my house.
Don't knock on my fence.
I see through the kitchen window.
I can wait it out.
The tools are in the shed.
The locks are on the door.
There's food in the kitchen.
I can wait it out.
Go away from my window,
leave at you own chosen speed,
you can stay wishing,
I can wait it out.

Concrete And Lies
00:53
|
|||
Take a little walk to the edge of town,
give a little thought to the past of the ground,
take a little view of the scope of time,
we live in cities built on concrete and lies.

I'm letting go of my rage,
It's been in there for most of my days,
like a thorn in the paw,
it ain't right to live this way,
I'm kicking off the shackles,
not everything can be a fight.
Turning a fresh page,
letting go of my rage.
I owe it to the ones,
the ones that came before,
the ones that survived,
4.5 billion years of unbroken life.
The famines and the floods,
the wars and the wolves,
I'm gonna live another day,
letting go of my rage.

Long Term
00:26
|
|||
The words in my head I can’t get across,
The memories I had are in the past and lost,
Short term, long term it’s all the same to me,
The only thing I’m lacking is my memory.

Australian War Crimes
02:25
|
|||
This is the opposite of nostalgia,
a sick distaste for the fatherland.
The Australian Special Air Service
murders prisoners in Afghanistan.
Whose wages do you pay?
Whose lives do they take?
