Ane Brun

Brilliant Brun!

[1] To Let Myself Go

To let myself go
To let myself flow
Is the only way of being
There´s no use telling me
There´s no use taking a step back
A step back for me

[2] Humming One Of Your Songs

I’m walking
I am walking along
And I am humming
I am humming
One of your songs

I just know one small verse in the middle of it
But it makes me wanna hear it
On and on and on and on
I just know one small verse in the middle of it
But it makes me wanna hear it
On and on and on and on

Everyday I hear your song now
Everyday
It won´t go away.
So I am humming
I am humming
One of your songs

I just know one small verse in the middle of it
But it makes me wanna hear it
On and on and on and on
I just know one small verse in the middle of it
But it makes me wanna hear it
On and on and on and on

So I am humming
I am humming
One of your songs

[3] My Lover Will Go

What am I gonna do?
I am crying a bottle of wine over you
This is something I don´t usually do
But I am crying a bottle of wine over you

For me it is red or nothing
Hey-ho my lover will go
And this will ruin everything
Hey-ho my lover will go
I´m just too romantic
Hey-ho my lover will go
Without any sense of strategies
Hey-ho my lover will go

Twelve days and many long days have passed
Since I let go of my heart way too fast
Too many long summer nights
I´ve been checking for errors on the telephone lines

For me it is red or nothing
Hey-ho my lover will go
And this will ruin everything
Hey-ho my lover will go
I´m just too romantic
Hey-ho my lover will go
Without any sense of strategies
Hey-ho my lover will go

What am I gonna do
I am pouring my heart all over you
I guess I recognize this too
I think I´m falling in love with you

[4] Where Friend Rhymes With End

My friend, you left me in the end
I can´t believe I´m writing a song
where friend rhymes with end
But today I must cave in
I have trouble forgetting those beautiful eyes
As it is
I must fill your space with lies

Friend, you left me in the end
I guess I knew it all along
I guess I expected this song
And it is as it appeared
Like a fist in my stomach and
Swallowing tears
Your song turned out a sad one
Just as I feared

[5] Stop

All that I have is all that you’ve given to me
Did you never worry that I’d come to depend on you
I gave you all the love I had in me
Now I find you’ve lied and I can’t believe it’s true
Wrapped in her arms I see across the street
And I can’t help but wonder if she knows what’s going on
You talk of love but you don’t know how it feels
When you realize that you’re not the only one

Oh you’d better stop before you tear me all apart
You’d better stop before you go and break my heart
Ooh you’d better stop

Time after time I’ve tried to walk away
But it’s not that easy when your soul is torn in two
So I just resign myself to it every day
Now all I can do is to leave it up to you

Oh you’d better stop before you tear me all apart
You’d better stop before you go and break my heart

Ooh you’d better stop
Stop if love me (you will remember)
Now is the time to be sorry (that day forever)
I won’t believe that you’d walk out on me
Oh you’d better stop before you tear me all apart
you’d better stop before you go and break my heart
Ooh you’d better stop

[6] Temporary Dive

I fell down in that hole again
I am a lump of jelly
I am a dead fish

I look up at the blue sky
Aand I know that it's just
A temporary dive

Sometimes we tip toe
Sometimes we run
Sometimes we wander while
Looking at the sun
Sometimes we tip toe
Sometimes we run
Sometimes we wander while
Looking at the sun

Sitting on the cold dirt floor
I want to finish the counting of days on the walls
I build a ladder from broken wish bones
And square-shaped stones
That my friends threw down in the hole

Sometimes we tip toe
Sometimes we run
Sometimes we wander while
Looking at the sun
Sometimes we tip toe
Sometimes we run
Sometimes we wander while
Looking at the sun

And even though I read maps to avoid them
They change location every day
And somehow all of my traces they vanish
But shall one stay put
Shall one lay low
Shall one not go
Just to avoid this hole

Sometimes we tip toe
Sometimes we run
Sometimes we wander while
Looking at the sun
Sometimes we tip toe
Sometimes we run
Sometimes we wander while
Looking at the sun

[7] Headphone Silence

I´m travelling
The wonderful loneliness
Of the headphone silence
Feels like noone can see me
They see right through me
Cuts me off
From the rest of the world

The useless strangers
Sharing my time and space
They might hear my humming
My tapping of fingers anyway
At least I have my thoughts all to myself
My content and the view outside

I see a rainbow complete
Resting its feet on the hill and the ground
Works as an illustration to the sound
This is a whole in time
A couple of hours when the day is
More abstract than usually
I star in this movie
I play the part and unify
With the soundtrack in my head
It could be morning it could be night
I could be anywhere
The headphone silence
Which fills my head

[8] Lullaby For Grown Ups

Go to sleep
with closed eyes
your prophecies
won’t be fulfilled tonight

when you think
of falling skies
remember there are a million ways to die

don’t be afraid
anymore
don’t wear your inside out
to keep you warm

so rest your head
it’s just as well
you can’t keep the sky from falling
anyway

[9] Ten Seconds

He spends his days worrying how
and when he is gonna die
that is irony in fine
he loves life so much, that’s why
even if he knows that it is true
he can’t help it in the end

it is those ten seconds
those ten seconds in your head
when you don’t wonder if you’re alright
you’re just hanging around with yourself – with yourself

now the weight comes crashing in
I’m trapped in my own skin
silence – where did you go?
you left without letting me know
I don’t want to hear this music
I am a careass I cannot use it

it is those ten seconds
those ten seconds in your head
when you don’t wonder if you’re alright
you’re just hanging around with yourself – with yourself
