sun ; ; ; set

 
all i want to do is
bE here; , , ,
feed me bread of tears (&
love at sunset, ?)
 
there is room for silence
’ ’ next to you
do hush your eyes do !? !? !,!
and hm hrrr it anew
 
(open air for flying
by your (.), side
/ laughing and / crying
with the tide)

boy in his teens
 
----------------
 
the boy in his teens he
turns his back to the wind he
rides his bike in the sun he rides his
bike in the rain
 
on San Martín the sky is
bright the sky is dark (and there’s) a
rising sun on San Martín a rising
storm on San Martín
 
beautiful boy if
i don’t talk to you now the
train will take you away the train will
take you down to me
 
at Pueyrredón the train is
stuck the train is gone (and i’m) a
bit too slow at Pueyrredón a bit too
bold at Pueyrredón
 
the boy in his teens he
holds his bike on the pier he’s
waiting for the train to come he’s waiting
for no train to come

LONG GO I START RUN
WAY OUT OF ME

ABSTLY NO KNOWING
WHEN I(T)LL NEVER DIE

HELLO BE NAKED
I LIKE THE GLOW

(I GLOW LIKE GLOW) AH
 
HELLO BE RISING

COME TRY JUMP FIRST TIME
FEEL REEL GOOD
 
I’S SO FULL WITH THIS
FAR HE AND SHE
I’S SOULWAYS NEW ONE
BE LIKE IT

Spacehelmet (America)
 
 
I’ve got a spacehelmet and bright dots for eyes
I’ve got a humming motor in my thorax
I’ve got moonlanding boots
 
O Prince or Princess of a planet toyed
I’m coming to you with beeps of joy
Small nickel tickles and a big smile on my spacehelmet
 
Rocket hardon, skeleton ship
Raving madness in the hips
I’m sailing to you with my spacehelmet on
 
I’m Monkey Two Feet
I’m Monkey Look Ma No Hands
I’ve got a round sharp head the shape of a spacehelmet
 
The stars are hot, the void is smooth
I ride my drives and swim my youth
Pure burst and burn
