On Most Surfaces (Inuït) (06:54)
The Gathering • Nighttime Birds
The frost hits me in the eye
And wakes me
These are blury winters
And I cannot see

I walk into the white light of the snow
When the sun comes
I break it with my shadow
Which tales me where I go

The frost hits me in the eye
And wakes me

I am the snow falling down on you
I tear up your face with my frost
And make you run to somewhere warm
When I come I see you get away
I brust out about your emptyness

The frost hits me in the eye
And wakes me

These are blury winters

Confusion (06:33)
The Gathering • Nighttime Birds
False eyes are staring
disrespectfully and untrue
The burden that we are carrying
is way too much for me and you

Sometimes it is better to lay
Don't you think?

I'm evaporating
A veil of smoke is what I am
Your thoughts will take on their way
To grow old and to be certain

The May Song (03:44)
The Gathering • Nighttime Birds
I'm waiting for your hands
to fold around my wrist
I'm mellowing in warm grass
and the scent of you I've missed

And blue is representing
the draft in my heart
I'm wandering through thin skies
and the transparent air I've missed

Pale is my face
you might want to colour
while I breathe

I'm following large drops of rain
with my eyes on the sight of you I've missed

Pale is my face
you might want to colour
while I breathe

The Earth Is My Witness (05:31)
The Gathering • Nighttime Birds
Mother earth look at her closely
she looks at her baby and she sighs
the slight breathing pause that she takes it builds her and
makes her strong

She refuses to give her up
and we close our eyes

Her hands touch the round stomach
and feel the kick
The eyes that have seen so much cry
with the water she starts to rinse her face

And refuses to give her up
And we close our eyes
And you close your eyes

New Moon, Different Day (06:06)
The Gathering • Nighttime Birds
I'm at the waterside
my cold feet are numb
and I follow my dream
I want to cross
I want to get inside

The clouds make a circle
on the soil that I'm on
and I trust what surrounds me
I want to cross

I break the storm through the clouds

I'm on the other side
I watch time pass
and I see, I have to go along
with the water that will lead the way
and I feel, the rain on my head
and the drops hit me one by one

I break the storm through the clouds

Third Chance (05:25)
The Gathering • Nighttime Birds
Fear and sweat, my muscles ache.
I smile, but it's just a fake.
I fade away.
It troubles me, what you're gonna say:
Just a day away,
And you will be here to stay.

I wait and I wait,
And what I really hate
Is the panic that stops me from breathing.
My knees hit the floor
And I panic more,
Until you open my door.

This whole world could explode around us.
Will they ever know
We had a third chance?

I wait and I wait,
And what I really hate
Is the panic that stops me from breathing.
My knees hit the floor
And I panic more,
Until you open my door.

Nighttime Birds (07:02)
The Gathering • Nighttime Birds
Their ways are open
they spread as their wings
they want to be certain
of a warm surrounding

When they fly
through the night as beautiful
nighttime birds

The warm wind picks them up

When they fly
through the night as beautiful
nighttime birds

Shrink (04:01)
The Gathering • Nighttime Birds
To feel this great urge
To hold and embrace you
I slowly dry out

I shrink and shrink
Until I'm gone
Nothing to make out of me
Oh what the hell went wrong
My heart gets pulled out
Into your direction
It's no use
You have forsaken me

Strange Machines (06:50)
The Gathering • Nighttime Birds
it has always been in the back of my mind
dreaming about going to the corners of time
i always wanted to fly in strange machines

i wanna do centuries in a lifetime
and feel it with my hands
touch the world war II and Cleopatra
flying...

could it be that my dream would come true
building a machine that would actually do
what i want it to do

russian revolution, let's do that in one day
Beethoven and Gershwin i think that would be o.k.
more than anything i wanna fly in strange machines

i wanna do centuries in a lifetime
and see it with my eyes
watch Jesus rise, if he ever did
flying...

i wanna do centuries in a lifetime
and feel it with my hands
touch renaissance and Chaka Khan
flying...
