lyrics

They will light up a trail
And say this is the one
They will hold out their hands
Like father to son
They will root deep in concrete
They'll say all of us live to please
They will tell you stories
Of what's right and what's wrong
They'll make up the rules
Of what's sad and what's fun
They will show you the alleys
They'll tell you there's no need to run

They will cry
They will smile
They will do all the things
You're denied
And then late at night
They'll wave goodbye

Rivers they'll sail
And mountains they'll climb
Roads they will cruise on
And gaps they will mind
Joy like a trophee
Behind glass and stainless steel
They will walk down the street
They will put up the signs
They will whistle on grass
A guide for the blind
They will let your words drown in tears
Your thoughts buried in sin

They will cry
They will smile
They will do all the things
You're denied
And then late at night
They'll wave goodbye

They will place a safe bet
The will breathe down your neck
They will brighten the corners
You cannot forget
They will mark only truths
And words that are easily said
When you think that they'll stop
They'll light up like fire
When you think you just fought
The fight will get harder

They'll say you are nowhere
Unless you've got somewhere you'll stay

about

a Singer of Songs Barcelona

I sing songs in the bathroom. In packed and empty venues. In gardens, sheds and churches. Once in a weird Finnish gym and also in the oldest house in Switzerland. On a boat and in a bus and in a horse farm. In noisy Italian bars and spookily silent Belgian rooms. On my own and with people.
I sing songs and if you want, you can listen.
