Won't you smoke with me this last cigarrette while the bell tower chimes kneel infront of the new day? Won't you smoke with me then? 'Wanna know where're you from, 'wanna know why you came, are you refugee my friend, I will give shelter then, won't you smoke with me then? We don't care anymore about what rich might say, they can't keep coins in their hearts and we can see fear in their brains, won't you smoke with me then? Now it's time to run, to go to the sun, Sun is beautiful place, one day the darkness will with love, it will fade away.

La nit ha arribat i estic sol, Sota el tel blanc dels llençols. La llum ha rebotat damunt els núvols vermells de la ciutat on ets tu. A la muntanya de l'Elefant que dorm no estic cantant per ningú no. A la muntanya de l'Elefant que dorm no vull que vinguis no em cal ningú. Els vagabunds fan l'amor dins els caixers demà treballaran al Parlament, I jo esperaré de nou la nit, i la nit arribarà i estaré aquí, A la muntanya de l'Elefant que dorm no estic cantant per ningú, no, No estic cantant a ningú no vull que vinguis no em cal ningú, Feliç és aquell qui està sol bevent estels sota un cel nou, No estic cantant a ningú, no vull que vinguis vull ser tot tu. Aquí dalt no em cal ningú més, Aquí dalt no em cal ningú més. Aquí dalt no crec en res. Aquí dalt no em cal ningú més.

Meranti 15:16
300 years ago The Dutch arrived To my Little town, They’ve stolen me From my kind The name of the biggest one Was Pieter Nuyts. He raped me every night since, Treated me like an animal, ‘Told me about his wife, He said she was not Free as I, All his family were living In the lowlands Country. So, I got used to him And ‘taught him Some Chinese, He used to grab my hair in bed In the sweetest way I’ve ever seen, So, I fell for him, So did he… I was only 16, I was supposed to marry a guy My family agreed on, He was such an honest one, But when they captured me No one claim my freedom, No one… Pieter had a son Who came visit him From Japan, And he played guitar with me, ‘showed me some ballads Of the western countries And cried. We became good friends, And ‘gave me golden jewelry, And one night before The winter came They ‘got into the fortress And they’ve killed 60 soldiers And ‘captured 20 more, We were sleeping in the inner rooms, My heart’s drummer Was performing Into his ear, Only for him, Only for him And then the morning came And they’ve told him Hey they have your son. Tomorrow We will bring him To the emperor Of the rising sun And he will decide If he saves his life If he saves his life or These are the last suns, Tomorrow! And he died, Later he died, Into the prison They’ve killed him, So, he grabbed my arm And under a waterfall A priest married us And later we had a son…. Oloro el fum dels temples Mentre camino per Taiwan I intento entendre Com tornar-me un fragment de Tao. El viatge més llunyà Comença amb un simple pas, Si no veus la muntanya És que estàs a la muntanya atrapat. Canviaran Algun dia les coses Si primer no canvio jo? Qui dirà Allò que vull sentir Si primer no Parlo jo? I was reading the news And I’ve found something weird, They said there’s a mansion In the Pyrinees, That a Golden witch Had a Golden son, She was horney And he got laid, I wish I wasn’t born here With this nationality, I wish a wolf could replace me, But I’ve smoked all alone, Under the moon shines, It wasn’t just another night, no, It was New Year’s Eve And I was disconnected, Drinking the bears craft beer, Thinking It feels so good To be alone in the wild When you are in love with you, When you love to love yourself, It feels good to be alone, Everyone has its own nightmares, Tryin’ to find a murder for them, It feels good to be alone, Alone in the wild, Alone in the wild, In the wild, In the wild, I què hi veus? No res, un fum. I don’t know why, Why ‘u send me out? First I hated love, yeah, Then I hated men, yeah, Let it be power I said So, let’s hate power, And later the government. We should rise We should rise up Even if we don’t know the way, I’m so tired and I don’t understand, Money kills the ideas of men, Why do we play their game? Why do we play their game? Why do you want to be one of them? She went to a new country Looking for love, Too many fights on her back, She ‘bought a ticket And ‘packed her stuff And flew to the light, That is how I’ve met her, I was lost too... So we got drunk And ‘made love, If I’d knew She would be That hot I wouldn’t ‘let her scape, The morning after Everything And everyone Has to play its role. So now I’m looking for her, Everywhere I go And I know one day, She’ll walk by my side And I’ll tell her: dear You won’t be alone again. Some nights I dream she is hear And I tell hey dear I will provide for you And you will provide for me.
