Calling Out

I just can’t keep myself from calling
Calling out your name
The familiar sound helps keeping you around
While I just keep waiting
I just can’t keep myself from calling
Calling out to yours
In my head I hear you laugh
From this faded photograph
I’m just commemorating
With time, love, you’ll see
The bottles pile up to a tree
And I know whatever will be
Our love will grow stronger than you and me
Now darling, since you’ve been gone
I just can’t keep myself from holding on
To the memory of our highs
The memory of your pale blue eyes
With time, love, you’ll see
The bottles pile up to a tree
And I know whatever will be
Our love will grow stronger than you and me
Oh why did you go?
You owe me one more chance to get this story straight again
You hold your life inside your hand, so pull the trigger if you can
Why does your finger keep shaking?
Why can’t you follow your dream?
I know whatever will be
Our love will grow stronger than you and me
Yeah our love will last longer than you and me

I made it one step up from suicide
On the ladder up to heaven
I heard my demons calling out so I climbed down and met them
I spent ten years alone
Out in the unknown
And I’ve come back to tell of the wonders of hell
Where days can turn to weeks and years
And time can lose its value
When you’re floating on a sea of tears
There ain’t that much you can do
So, just take a deep breath
If you’re up to the test
Atlantis will wait and the bounty is great
So just come my way
I’ve paid my toll
I’m good, I’m healthy, I’m whole
I feel closer to the living now
Then I’ve ever felt before
I’m listening to the siren’s call while resting at the shore
And when toes touch the cold
And the shadows unfold
My song parts the water and my promise will hold
So just come my way
I’ve paid my toll
I’m good, I’m healthy, I’m whole
I’m good, I’m healthy, I’m whole
I’m good, I’m healthy, I’m whole

Give In To Me

You please me, oh, you release me
You’ve built me up and you stayed true
And now I’m looking down on you
You heal me, oh, you reveal me
It took some rain to my sight
It took some pain to feed your pride
My love will weigh you down until, my love, you will give in to me
My love will weigh you down until, my love, you will give in to me
You are my quest, you are my quarry
Once the morals hit the story
You know that the story ends
My love will weigh you down until, my love, you will give in to me
My love will weigh you down until, my love, you will give in to me
With all that you’ve got to give up you will be mine
Yeah all that you’ve got you’ll give up just to be mine
You live your life and I won’t bother
I’ll watch you thrive with all the others
My love will weigh you down until, my love, you will give in to me
My love will weigh you down until, my love, you will give in to my love, until you will give in to me

You Surround Me
03:26

|
It’s just another kiss goodbye
And we’re bound to go live
To lives that barely coexist
Who has the time, who has the space to just embrace
All the beauty that lies untouched on the crossroads of our ways
I walk the line but on the go
I take this time to let you know
You surround me
Wherever I go you’re with me
You surround me
Through sunshine and rain you remain
You surround me
Like a ballad you ring through the night
I just sing along to the joy that you bring
And everytime I’m stuck
You rewind me to the start
You remind me of my luck
And overwrite those shady parts
When it’s all over my head
And the days just leave me wrecked
I try to think of you instead
Feel your kisses on my neck
I walk the line but on the go
I take this time to let you know
You surround me
Wherever I go you’re with me
You surround me
Through sunshine and rain you remain
You surround me
Like a ballad you ring through the night
I just sing along to the joy that you bring
And whenever we part
To keep your place for a while
Somewhere in my heart
Stays a trace of your smile
You surround me
Wherever I go you’re with me
You surround me
Through sunshine and rain you remain
You surround me
Like a ballad you ring through the night
I just sing along to the joy that you bring

Just go, pack up your kindness and leave
The only joy in the life of a thief, my precious, is make-believe
Let’s roll, an unguarded heart’s a good deal
A thief is intended to steal, my precious, lock up your soul and heal
Don’t let me in
Don’t let it start
You will find your fellow, mellow heart
Don’t let me in
We’ll break apart
You will find your fellow, mellow heart
You know, there’s no place where I wouldn’t go
My heart is stuck on death row, my precious, I can’t go slow
Cause I know God’s judgement’s getting closer every day
But eternity seems short to me, so listen when I say: just go
Don’t let me in
Don’t let it start
You will find your fellow, mellow heart
Don’t let me in
We’ll break apart
You will find your fellow, mellow heart

silent neighbor Zürich, Switzerland
Wilco? Tom Waits? Daniel Johnston played by a free jazz combo or maybe an Ed Sheeran-
Stravinsky
crossover? «Tired Of Your Smile», the new album by silent neighbor, is just as multifaceted
and sometimes seemingly contradictory as these comparisons suggest. «Tired Of Your Smile» is an album filled with musical wit and
lyrical poignancy, bipolar emotional states and unexpected turns. Enjoy the ride!
