Dying Plant 04:15
I feel like a plant, longing for water going to dry in the sun. I am too weak to get to the liquid the sand of your love is too rough. Is it the change, the change of your place, that makes it so hard for me? Is it the weather, the cold blowin` wind, that is crushing the heart out of me? I feel like a stone, deep in the shade thrown beneath your castle. You`re unreachable, behind hidden walls, why you`re so hard to see? Tell me what I can do for us. I can`t wait no more. Tell me what I`m supposed to do, so my heart won`t be crushed out of me... We were so close together then, seems like everything has changed. Sometimes I hope that you still think of me. Even someday you might return to me, return to me. Hope is not dead, but I`m able to kill, `cause my life is empty now. And I feel like a plant, longing for water, going to die, to die, to die, in the sun.

I feel so sad, I feel so insecure, when I walk around those empty, clean-white floors. When they ask me with their faces: What do look for? I`m quite curious what they would answer oh. I don`t want to be lost in time, lost in space. I don`t want to be lost in time, lost in space. I still feel sad, I still feel insecure when I`m trying to get acces to my dreams. As a lonely teardrop `s falling down my cheek, now that I found my love I`m still searching for myself. I don`t want to be lost in time, lost in space. I don`t want to be lost in time, lost in space. I don`t want to be lost in time, lost in space. I don`t want to be lost in time, lost in space.

I don`t know how far I`m gonna go in losing myself, when I`m with you. Does it really matter which person I become, I guess you never notice the changes I`ve done. Am I gonna need to go that far, in losing myself, losing myself, when I`m with you? I don`t know. Time will show. Am I losing California in my head? Am I losing the illusions in my head? The person that I want to be is sometimes far away. It´s comforting to know that you stay close to me. I know I can face up to issues that arise. I realise that you back me in the task of being me. So I`m gonna keep on working on myself. Don`t care `bout expectations, don`t care what people say when I`m with you. I stay with you. Stay with you. And I`m losing California in my head. And I`m losing the illusions in my head. I burned myself by touching you. Sorrow disappeared. Illusions disappeared. I burned myself by touching you. Sorrwo disappeared. Illusions disappeared. Burned myself by touching you. Sorrow disappeared. Illusions disappeared. I burned myself by touching you sorrow disappeared. Illusions disappeared. Expectations disappeared. Sorrow disappeared.

Yo no sé, adonde tengo que irme, a Triana, vamos al puente, eschuchando, olas del tiempo. Sintiendo, olas del tiempo. Y quizás, a través de esa olas, estoy corriendo riesgo, de perder todo lo que amo, como puedo cuestionar, el núcleo de mi vida? Estoy perdiendome, en las olas del tiempo, estoy perdiendome, al lado del Guadalquivir. De dónde viene ese sed, ese sed por la vida? Esa curiosidad, por los lados peligrosos. Siempre estaba féliz, no me hacía falta nada, casi. Que me pasa ahora? He perdido mi compas, que a mi me importa... Yo espero, ser capaz, de volver a ese tiempo, antes que el remolino, de los acontecimientos, me haya llevado más, más allá. A través, de las olas del tiempo. Estoy perdiendome, al lado del Guadalquivir. De dónde viene ese sed, ese sed por la vida? Esa curiosidad, por los lados peligrosos. Siempre estaba féliz, no me hacía falta nada, casi. Que me pasa ahora? He perdido mi compas, en las olas del tiempo

Acknowledgements:

After four turbulent years of growing up between graduation, Corona, Sevilla and Munich, this EP is finally finished. I'm a bit speechless how you can delay a project for so long, but I guess that's how life goes sometimes.
Without the support of many dear people this piece of music would never have seen the light of day in this form, so a big round of applause goes to the following people.
I sincerely thank Giovanni Raabe for his patience, support, advice and excellent sense of rhythm, Nicolas Christ for his soulful synth playing, Peter Schmidt and Tilmann Waldhier for their guitars, Sabine Staebe for her apartment acting as a studio, Philipp Horänder for the great mix, Marvin Scheler for the well-balanced master, Julius Krebs for his advice and his basement studio and Michael Grobe for the recordings.
And of course my family and friends for their belief in me and my music....

Vocals, guitars and electric bass: Adam Smoleń
