Brighter Bigger

Falling into sleeplessness
All my senses are queasy
And I’m feeling uneasy
Moving through all the strangeness
Daytripping to a place I’ve never been
Stone-playful stepping
White paper wishing
A temple union
In a world full of madness
For a moment I could catch my breath
Somewhere under those neon lights
My world seemed to get brighter
In that bar and grill I found someone who speaks my language
Nothing out of translation here
My world seemed to get bigger
Late night in your hotel room
Drinking sake from masu
With Fellini in full view
Masquerading the gloom
Who am I? What will my life become?
How you softened the blow
Making jokes on the go
I’m such a serious one
Brighter, bigger, brighter and bigger
Mystery, how did we meet up here?
I want to run away
Live this dream everyday
Until my conscience is clear
Hold me, tell me what I want to know
Remember when we were younger
It was all for the hunger
There was no letting go
Brighter, bigger, brighter and bigger
Brighter, bigger, brighter and bigger

I Will Tell You Now
05:33

I woke up in a neon storm
Feels a lot like a dream to me
I could be doing a play somewhere
But I sold out to a Japanese whiskey
I turned around and there you were
Like an angel from another world
You brought me back from my reverie
I knew right then I had discovered
A hidden pearl
By the way, I’ve been meaning to tell you
What you really want to hear
It’s a secret I’ve been holding for you dear
When the timing is right
I will tell you what you need to hear
You let me into your circle of friends
We karaoked till the morning light
Pink hair and a longing stare
I never wanted you to leave my sight
A week later it’s time to go
You made your way out of the hotel
I came after you as soon as I could
It was hopeless I was under
Your spell
By the way, I’ve been meaning to tell you
What you really want to hear
It’s a secret I’ve been holding for you dear
When the timing is right
I will tell you what you need to hear
I’m a sucker for those other worldly eyes
When the timing is right
I will tell you what you have to hear
Let’s never lose the feeling
Of that warm embrace
We gotta find a way to
Get back to that place
I will tell you now
I will tell you now
I will tell you now
I will tell you now

Ghost in Tokyo
08:54

I see you
Over and over again
The images burn into my brain
Is it blind luck
Or a higher intelligent aim
To deliver us from the shadows
We became?
Is this real life or a game?
If we turn back the clock
Does it always end the same?
All the memories I lost
Will they ever find a name?
In another world
Will I ever see you again?
In another life
Will I ever know you again?
I’ll keep on searching
Keep on searching to find you
Keep on searching
I’ll keep on searching
Till I find you
I’ve lost track now
Wandering the streets alone
I don’t know if it ever feels like home
Like a ghost in Tokyo
Haunting into the unknown
Could be justice for the visions I have sown
I know my eyes deceive me
What’s lost searches for beauty
You think you will ever know
Where do all the souls Go?
