Music – The Wolfwalk Experience

Jigsaw (Single, 2020)

The concept of Vision is based on a dissociation between what you think you see, what you want and the realisation of what you are.

Imagine the ideal. Imagine pure beauty, what ever that may be to you. Imagine perfection, unreachable but still hauntingly beautiful. Always too far out to have.

Now what if this ideal reality started to crack, lose its charade? What if bliss had actually always been in our reach but we just never tried?

This song is begging for those things to keep their mystery, so we can keep peace for a bit longer. So we are not tortured by our worries, that it was our own fault. That we could have, should have been a braver version of our selves.

Lyrics

I really don’t know whether it was easier once
But now I look a the pieces sprawled out before me
Beckoning border, jagged teeth biting my fingers at the touch
And the image remains
Broken

I really don’t know whether it was ever complete
But now I look at the mess that I have created
The more pieces fitting, the more pieces fail
Despite rearranging and searching the way
The image remains
Broken

You deviant genius, jigsaws some pieces swept under the rug

Mad scientist you stole a piece of me
Mad doctor you took my life away
Mad word you left me no escape
Mad picture in front of me, incomplete

You lier, you cheat
You deviant genius, jigsaws some pieces swept under the rug
The nuks and the creases are slowly filling up
Filling up with blood

There are better things for timber to become
Than blueprints for a life
Heavy ink grounds paper planes
And plans and thoughts in lives

You liar, you cheat
You deviant genius, jigsaws some pieces swept under the rug
The nuks and the creases are slowly filling up
Filling up with blood

Vision (Single, 2019)

Imagine the ideal. Imagine an idea, a concept you built, so beautiful, so powerful that you long for it every second of your existence as an excuse for your own shortcomings.
But the second you reach this state of absolute perfection you know you will be forced to admit that it can never be true. This means you can never have it because if this ideal loses its all-possessing glory you have to acknowledge your personal inadequacy.

We tried to capture this existential conflict by giving the song a dreamy, mellow sound held together by the guitars staccatto picking. Slowly building up Visions erupts in the moment the character realises this dissociation, ending with the plea for the ideal to never change.

Lyrics

From my tiny dirty window
In the wall that is the past
I can see the things that made you
The angel that you are

Like a TV with one channel
Compelled by what I see
I keep staring at the future
And the things that used to be

Please never change
Please never change
Even if it means I can never have you
Please never change

As you move among your people
Their words adorn your crown
I stand rooted in your cold path
My feet fused to the ground

You captivate my mind
As you invade my dreams
And when the flicker of the times subsides
You’ll still be here with me

Please never change
Please never change
Even if it means, I can never have you

Keep your mystery, majesty
Never, never, never become mundane
Keep your mystery, keep your majesty
Never, never, never become mundane

Even if it means, I could never have you
Please never change

Bring It On (Single, 2019)

This song is about the things we don’t dare to say. The things we try to coax out of each other. There is a point where all you want is to finally get it on and see what is left over when every single word has been said and everything has been done.

We tried to capture this dreadful calmness, the mental buildup and the storm you encounter when you finally address these issues.

Lyrics

I feel your presence
Sniffing at my feet
The black dog needs his walk
I feel your asking
Neglected for too long
The black dog needs his walk

Well maybe finally we’ll see what we’ve buried
Well maybe finally we will talk

Extracting confessions
By means of wine and beer
The black dog needs his walk
Misery loves company
And black dogs need their packs
The black needs his walk

Well maybe finally we’ll see what we’ve buried
Well maybe finally we will talk

Let’s see what’s left
When everything is said and done
I can’t stand the tension any longer so bring it on
Bring it on, bring it on, bring it on
All means to an end
Face to face with a friend
Bring it on

Blue Matter

Lyrics

When red turned to blue
Blue matter in the sun
When clouds filled the sky
Certain dawn would never come again

When blood turned to sand
And rocks obscured my sight
The surge in my ears
No longer blue its tide

When grey turned to blue
Blue matter in my brain
When I turned to you
To tell you ‘bout the pain

You held me and told me
That everything was gonna be alright
If I just made it through the day
Catch me when I fall
Far away from this world
Pour me in a bowl
Let me rest until I find my form again

Blue matter, blue matter in my brain
Blue matter, blue matter in my brain

And here now we stand
At the edge of the abyss
Casting glances into the dark
From which we emerged

Slightly wiser yet scarred
I thank you everlasting friend
For staying with me
‘till blue matter turns grey again

Blue matter, blue matter in my brain
Blue matter, blue matter in my brain

I thank you everlasting friend
For staying with me
‘till blue matter turns grey again

Big City Cats

Lyrics

Chalk smiles, bright lights
Reflecting gods in window panes
Lone cats amongst grey cars and black dogs
A loner hides in perfect view
And nothing is a shield sublime

Eos knocking at your door

Your mind now wanders stranger paths at night
Where the sane thoughts never tread
Luminous eyes of all the streetlamps
Are searching for the wounded spot

Eos hands upon the wall

Sealed lips, eyes closed
No reflection, no one knows
Big city cats, they are alone
Hide behind the wall of glass
Just don’t move and wait
They’ll pass

Sealed lips, eyes closed
No reflection, no one knows
Big city cats, they are alone

Hide behind the wall of glass
And let all the people pass
Big city cats, they are alone

The city lights have drowned the night
Photonic threat, the rising tide

Try to wipe the drops of light
That seep across the great divide
With your palm against the glass
The last cigarette has burnt out
As trembling hands reach for the heart

Eos stretches out her claws

Your feet are damp now from the light
Leaking pain across the floor
Foreboding of the coming tide
Slowly rising up, leaking through the milky glass

Eos tightens up her grasp

Sealed lips, eyes closed
No reflection, no one knows

Big city cats, they are alone
The city lights have drowned the night
Photonic threat, the rising tide

Big city cats, they are alone
And you try to shut the blinds
To block out the morning light

Big city cats, they are alone
When the flood has reached your room
You’ll jump the ship and we’ll meet soon
Enough again

Coming Home

Lyrics

Hello, I’m coming home
To where our dreams collide
To where my past resides
To where my sun does rise
Come on

This house of rising sons
And daughters
Grows children into bigger children still

Because
There’s a house for kings
And there’s a house for lords
And there’s a house for those
Who don’t care at all

Welcome
To the house of many colors
Welcome
To where I’m gonna stay

When the fog rises up from the fields at dawn
And the mist from the night before starts to clear before your eyes
You’ll see with friends surrounded to the east
And realize that you are finally home

Because
There’s a house for kings
And there’s a house for lords
And there’s a house for those
Who don’t care at all

Welcome
To the house of many colors
Welcome
To where I’m gonna stay

Mars

Lyrics

The angel has left Earth again
No need to check her apartment
No need to ask her friends

The angel has left Earth again
No need to check her head
No need to check her bed

Yes sometimes she walks on Mars
The little figure in the dark
The red dust on golden hair

We will never get there
We will never get there before she’s dead

I know I scared her off tonight
Her world is bleak and dead
Brought shadows and destruction
To the haven of her head

She’s looking for a hero
And I cannot be the one
Please look on, please look on
Little angel, please look on

Yes sometimes she walks on Mars
The little figure in the dark
The red dust on golden hair

We will never get there
We will never get there
We will never get there before she’s dead

Yes sometimes she walks on Mars
The little figure in the dark
The red dust on golden hair

We will never get there
We will never get there
We will never get there before she’s dead

Know

Lyrics

To the spy inside my head
I sometimes wish that you were gone
Cause bitter skeptic’s talk gets me no help
And all your words
They’re acid to me now

I thought you should know

And with the benefit of doubt – I guess
Your intentions are still good, I give you that
Still I get the feeling that the bitterness has
Clouded your judgement ‘cause I see
That clear skies are ahead

I thought you should know

And still your acid words infest my head
Filling me with fear and hate instead

I swear to you this war is over now
Time to leave the stage and rest in peace
Your time has gone and so is my demand
For spies lest we forget

Once a servant now you are a threat
To the things that I hold dear
Still I get the feeling that the bitterness has
Clouded your judgement ‘cause I see
That clear skies are ahead

I thought you should know

And still your acid words infest my head
Filling me with fear and hate instead

I swear to you this war is over now
Time to leave the stage and rest in peace
Your time has gone and so is my demand
For spies lest we forget

Please, please, let me love again
The way that I once loved before
Please, please, let me feel again
Don’t want to bear your yoke no more

I swear to you this war is over now
Time to leave the stage and rest in peace
Your time has gone and so is my demand
For spies lest we forget

Please, please, let me love again
The way that I once loved before
Please, please, let me feel again
Don’t want to bear your yoke no more
