lyrics

I saw a whole empire bursting at night
Going up to smoke
And then blown away by a giant guy
And then I saw the growing habits
Replacing the dreams
Of a shall-not-speak fifty years old man

He's now hiding every night
And he does ask for all the maps
In every explorer shop he finds
Which suits to wear
For his mind and body to come along
Anywhere
He feels comfortable
Yet the daylight seems like warm foam
Ready to eat his night

Youth may be a room, made to warm up our
heads
While the forgetful cold of a winter makeshift
shed
Wanders through the cracks
Of the old vapoured oak

I saw it burning in the dark
In the dark
Of newborn factories
Sitting here like bookends
Our past still glows
As an old fashioned torch
Coughing glimmers
Under the reeks and smokes
And Future starts now
Behind the steamed-up window
Of the house that's not anymore a home
And Future, it starts now

And the Water, does it remember ?

I saw a whole empire sitting on its own
Standing always here
Until the waves they turn it into foam
Thumb up in the lying sea
Hitching a ride
What does the water remember
If it's all been washed away ?

What does the water remember
If it's all been washed away ?
What stories could tell the sea
About castles living for a day ?
Could the sea tell us tales ?
What does the water remember ?
Which traces will remain ?
