Waveforms 04:02
lyrics
Side B I’ll play more sounds for you to enjoy These yé-yé tunes are brighter, lighter and bloodier See what they sold me under the counter yesterday It sounds like Verdun and it looks like James Dean I see people through the window They all seem to fade Someone’s standing in the corner Excited and afraid Waves in the air Make houses tremble All these waveforms Abduct me Conduct me Waves everywhere All houses tremble All these waveforms Abduct me Conduct me When a young man shot me with an electric guitar I decided to use an intonarumori myself I saw objects in the sky In my early days All the sounds from Mars and Venus Were like gamma rays Waves in the air Make houses tremble All these waveforms Abduct me Conduct me Waves everywhere All houses tremble All these waveforms Abduct me Conduct me See the waveforms everywhere See the waveforms everywhere See the waveforms flying in the air Waves in the air Make houses tremble All these waveforms Abduct me Conduct me Waves everywhere All houses tremble All these waveforms Abduct me Conduct me

Escape 03:44
lyrics
I’ve been planning this for a month Soon I will be out Soon I will be out of this place There are many gunmen And they must not see me And they must not notice And they must not notice My escape I’ll cross the border Unknown, in disguise Now I’m just someone They don’t recognize Through barbed wire and through the snow It is not far from here And I try to reach it alive I will find my life in exile I hear someone shouting And a gunshot then another Now I hope they cannot catch me I avoid the bullets In the dark I’ll cross the border Unknown, in disguise Now I’m just someone They don’t recognize Across the river Now I’m almost there The no man’s land The land of nowhere My escape My exile I’m unknown In disguise I’ll cross the border Unknown, in disguise Now I’m just someone They don’t recognize Across the river Now I’m almost there The no man’s land The land of nowhere

The Chanson of a Pervert 04:22
lyrics
I wish I had forgotten The things I heard in a bar The rumours of your basement And talk about your boudoir I’d heard your name many times And met some people you’d see Your boyfriends looked like my sister Your girlfriends looked like me This time of year I can’t be here If you’re still young There’ll be no sun Life was unclear Until last year You’re not so young There’s still no sun I often walk past your house It’s not so far from my home My vague ideas of its splendor May be too monochrome By now you must have forgotten That you’d been warned of me Now you’re what you thought I was You are what I’ll never be This time of year I disappear If you’re still young There’ll be no sun Life was unclear Until last year You’re not so young There’s still no sun

Streets of Sound 03:11
lyrics
Are those noises crushing me I can’t escape, I’m falling Running through the streets of sound Uncovered and defenseless Through the many waves of noise I hear a distant call Moment of tranquility I hear my thoughts and feelings Running through the silent streets Uncovered and defenseless Then the sound is here again The noises make me fall Are those noises crushing me I can’t escape, I’m falling

The War to End War 02:53
lyrics
I was sent here by a president or a governement I was sent here by someone who I’d never met I am here to defend some strangers’ interests They’re the ones who should be here and clean their own mess In this chaos I don’t know who’s on my side and who’s against me In this chaos I don’t know who or what I’m fighting for The sky looks gray and brown just like this pool of mud There is something red, I hope it isn’t my own blood This war like the next war is a war to end war In this chaos I don’t know who’s on my side and who’s against me In this chaos I don’t know who or what I’m fighting for I am here to defend some strangers’ interests They’re the ones who should be here and clean their own mess This war like the next war is a war to end war

200 Kilometres from Purgatory 06:58
lyrics
Many days later I walked past a village It looked abandoned But I knew I was not alone I saw many footprints there I saw many footprints there I saw footprints heading towards the woods The current inhabitands don’t understand this land They feel strange things but don’t know their origin I see echoes in the sky I see echoes in the sky I see echoes scattered in the sea Silence Silence in the valley Sounds Sounds in the mountains Many hours later I woke up in a barn I looked out of the door and saw many forms of life I saw planets in the sky I saw planets in the sky I saw different planets in the morning Silence Silence in the earth Sounds Sounds in the sky I saw a girl with the cross of Saint Peter She was standing on a hill Listening to the echoes I see echoes in the sky I see echoes in the sky I see different echoes in the morning Flames shine Flames in the horizon I see the towers I imagined long ago Flames shine Not what I thought at first Flames shine Flames in the horizon Then I looked up Up through the skies and saw that space was covered with blood The disappearing ship on its way to the future I see the towers The towers in the horizon I saw that space was covered with blood Silence Silence in the earth Sounds Sounds in the sky Many days later When I had seen the mountains I saw the village It looked abandoned I saw the towers The towers in the horizon I saw that space was covered with blood I saw the planets I heard the echoes Silence Silence in the valley Sounds Sounds in the mountains Many days later I’m still walking I realize I’m still at the starting point

The Years 05:27
lyrics
19 years since the last time I was here In the village I once called my hometown 19 years since the last day of my life I was taken somewhere east from here Everything looks dead to me In the hometown that is not my home Everything looks just the same I can’t see myself living here I will leave this town behind And erase it from my mind 15 years since 1945 When suddenly I was alive 15 years since I walked into the city And my years of wandering began Someone lives in my old house Hoping not to hear about its past I’m looking at it from afar Then it’s buried in my faintest memories Now one final look behind I will leave this town behind
