Melancholia

Melancholia.

An epic story of depression and death. What myth can carry us through such suffering? Sometimes, its symbolically the end of the world and yet being united in our human frailty.

No Room for Doubt by Lianne La Havas

No Room For Doubt
Lianne La Havas (feat. Willy Mason)

You caught me, guilty
Taking the pieces of you
That night, you took flight
I couldn't decide what to do

I won't let a safe bet
Continue to make me go blue
I could go solo
Would that be the right thing to do?

We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you
We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you

I tiptoe, too slow
Out of the door to your house
I know you know
That this way leads me out

Outside, too bright
You're within I'm without
You're within I'm without

We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you
We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you

Please sleep softly
Leave me no room for doubt
Please sleep softly
Leave me no room for doubt

Please sleep softly
Leave me no room for doubt
Please sleep softly
Leave me no room for doubt
Leave me no room for doubt

We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you
We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you

We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you
We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you, oh

Please sleep softly
Leave me no
Please sleep softly
Leave me no room for doubt

Please sleep softly
Leave me no
Please sleep softly
Leave me no room for doubt

Western Laziness

Western laziness is quite different. It consists of cramming our lives with compulsive activity, so there is no time at all to confront the real issues. This form of laziness lies in our failure to choose worthwhile applications for our energy.

Misread by Kings of Convenience

If you want to be my friend
You want us to get along
Please do not expect me to
Wrap it up and keep it there
The observation I am doing could
Easily be understood
As cynical demeanor
But one of us misread

And what do you know
It happened again

A friend is not a means
You utilize to get somewhere
Somehow I didn't notice
Friendship is an end
What do you know
It happened again

How come no-one told me
All throughout history
The loneliest people
Were the ones who always spoke the truth
The ones who made a difference
By withstanding the indifference
I guess it's up to me now
Should I take that risk or just smile?

What do you know
It happened again
What do you know
