Hypnos

about

a song about left out options and choices. written in a hotel room in berlin.

lyrics

In this room there is only
one pair of eyes
which finds itself in three simple framed mirrors
two in the bathroom
and one on the way to the door
the air is stale and smells like the hotel floor

the next step
given up to soon
all these piled up options
left for dead in bloom

the next spark
burned out to soon
all these piled up options
left for dead in bloom

it took all day for the loneliness to get pressed
to one hard lump
ripe without any use
now it fits into a glas

the next step
given up to soon
all these piled up options
left for dead in bloom

the next spark
burned out to soon
all these piled up options
left for dead in bloom
just the sound of the street
flows through the window
and the head is crammed
starring occasionally out of the window
just to find again
this one pair of eyes
meaningless because well known
sleep calls
opiate like
the time capsule to the next overfilled vacuum
