Cloaked in a silence that's pulsing through the darkness
Every day greets me on this hidden trail
An unsurprising view and my soul out of tune
This travelling pattern takes so much of me
In the circle of halting, within our mutual distance
We're heading, we're marching into the arms of cityard
Try to transfer your mind, quickly with the closing door sign
To the garden of your favourite trees
You're one of them right? No matter how you've burnt out
They don't have names, but the finest qualities
Tall, strapping with benches to carry you
Moving or stable, corresponding with your inner rhythm
Rooted in certainty, nourishing with a lightness
Once you bring the water, you leave with the calmness
Tall, strapping with benches to carry you
Moving or stable, corresponding with your inner rhythm
Rooted in certainty, nourishing with a lightness
Once you bring the water, you leave with the calmness
Cloaked in silence, every day greets me on this hidden trail
To the circle of halting, to our mutual distance
I must return tomorrow, to devotedly talk to my trees

Clocks
03:51
|

It’s night, I’m prisoner to one of those electric storms
So quiet just old clock is ticking and the air is so warm
I’m praying for the thunder that could overrule this beat
’cause it’s itching, it’s scratching, is slipping through the skin, yes through the meat
In the spell of the moonlight ceiling filled with tiny dots
I’m forced to sit down and follow the most unsavory thoughts
Should I’ve done that, could I’ve done anything more
Had I really done my best
These thoughts go down to the core
And the clocks keep ticking tick tock tick tock
Dark night, I’m prisoner to one of those electric storms
And I can’t even move to stop the clocks when the air is so warm
’cause a static is all around, I’m caught in the net
And the beat has got the power to nail me down inside my bed
And the clocks keep ticking tick tock tick tock

Heaven

The season has changed
My heart couldn’t
Laying silently in the sand
It tells me I won’t stop missing you
I’m still waiting for you to come with your loving eyes
Will you wait for me too?
Don’t let my poor self stand without a map in the middle of this crossroad
Just promise you won’t
Sometimes I search heaven
Will I stretch my hands up to you
Where you’re having a peaceful time
With those Angels, they will comfort you
I’m still waiting for you to come with your loving eyes
Will you wait for me too?
Don’t let my poor self stand without a map in the middle of this crossroad
Just promise you won’t
And I’ll never stop loving you
I’m still waiting for you to come with your loving eyes
Will you wait for me too?
Don’t let my poor self stand without a map in the middle of this crossroad
Just promise you won’t

Boat of Emotions LIVE
03:20
|
|||
Don’t hide tonight
Let us follow the light
Put down resistance
Have your eyes open wide
Hearing your name I’m trembling, within you
It’s where I yearn to hide
I’ve always cherished the sight
You and the moon shinning so bright
Seeing your face, I’d die for giving in to you
I feel like odd destiny’s child
So I am willing to surrender
But it’s you who’s given me so much
If I could change your behavior
What a price must be paid for that touch
2021 © Venika Hartlyn
We’re both sailing on a boat of emotions
The stars watching us shine in slow motion
We never waited for miracles to happen
We don’t need them too
And I love you
Like the foolish people do
Am I falling in love with you
And I need you
You’re pride to my old blue
Take me far from the Moon
Take me far from the Moon
Take me far from the Moon

What I Used to Know LIVE
05:01
|

When did you leave me
I still can't get used to
Don't wanna be the one who build up the walls
Instead I'd get over to what's there to recall
And I want to see you're still here for me
Let me fall, let me fall, let me fall, let me fall
Fall, let me fall, let me fall, let me fall out of what I used to know
This is how I see you
Moving on, self-centered at all
I don't recognize if we met before
Have tried to be patient
And let the past go
But unwilling to hear that you forgot me
Let me fall, let me fall, let me fall, let me fall
Fall, let me fall, let me fall, let me fall out of what I used to know
It's been a long time, it's been a long time
Since your heart was a friend of mine
Been a long time, it's a been a long time
Since I though we would die, since I thought we would die (for that)
Fall, let me fall, let me fall,
Let me fall, let me fall
Let me fall
Out of what I used to know

Tiny Creatures LIVE
03:43
|

Tiny creatures on the top of the cliffs
My warm nostalgia they want to steal it from my lips
Weirdly staring and I noticed that one starts falling right down into my boat
Who's down there, who holds the key to my soul's mystery
Half-lost half-found, half-lost half-found
Eyes with questions and tears almost dried
Could I be their mate, could I answer what they demand
I'm afraid to tell my new passanger that we are not the same kind
Who's down there, who holds the key to my soul's mystery
Half-lost half-found, half-lost half-found
Lost in a purity, settled in vanity
Different worlds, same feelings
To dive within or to pull through
Our mutual trip to the agelong truth
Our little boat swings from side to side
The unsteady flow's not something to be denied
Reflecting on helps to enjoy the ride
Will we ever return?
Who's down there, who holds the key to my soul's mystery
My soul's mystery
