Lost Map

Lyrics: John Patrick Therrien
The lost map 
Tries to find itself 
X marks the spot 
It animates 
A chase of its tail 
This singularity 
Is for sale 
Oh it’s for sale
The lovers sat beneath the fig tree 
Eating 
Almond bread 
A small box held a tear drop 
No one has heard what it said
It said, it said: 
 
Who would you be 
If the answer was yes? 
What would you do
After your quest? 
Can you laugh at the joke 
Of your echoed behest? 
Test jest chest rest 

One in every atom 
Fathom 
unflappable horizons 
Size can change with scale 
Resignation’s in the mail
The lovers sat beneath the fig tree 
Eating 
Almond bread 
A small box held a tear drop 
No one has heard what it said
It said, it said, it said: 

Who would you be 
If the answer was yes? 
What would you do
After your quest? 
Can you laugh at the joke 
Of your echoed behest? 
Test jest chest rest

Quiet Song

Lyrics: John Patrick and Marie Therrien
There is no stop
To thoughts in your head
Maybe the monster is better unfed
Under the bed
Across the bridge
We build a world
Can we choose to live

I think we need a quiet song
I guess I wish we’d get along
Whatever that means
Playfully 
Where 2 can be 3 can be 4
Gleichzeitig
Less is more 

Im Schattenreich wohnend, unsichtbar
Gebiert sich Macht aus Zweifeln
Wir wähnen uns Lenker
Doch werden selbst gelenkt
Und das Monster hungert leise
Verschlingt uns Stück für Stück
Bis zum Morgengrauen
Wo es verblasst im eigenen Licht

I think we need a quiet song
I guess I wish we’d get along
Whatever that means
Playfully 
Where 2 can be 3 can be 4
Gleichzeitig
Less is

You haunt you like a ghost
Is that your innermost
Charm
Or a deranged smoke alarm
That thinks the ground of being
Is quicksand 
Not worth seeing

I think we need a quiet song
I guess I wish we’d get along
Whatever that means
Playfully 
Where 2 can be 3 can be 4
Gleichzeitig
Less is more 

Hey, James

Lyrics: John Patrick Therrien
Hey James
Darling, why can’t you sleep?
You sharpened the knives
But still haven’t eaten 
Anything
Your bad dream
Is a ghost on your nose
Whichever way you look
It follows you close
Won’t you close your eyes
And come lie down

We have everything we need
I love you 
This is freedom
Won’t you put your weapon down 
I’ll feed you
They can’t eat you

Eden and fruit
Good with evil to boot
The black and the gray
Horses and hay
Dismal desires
Accompany
Angelic choirs

We have everything we need
I love you 
This is freedom
Won’t you put your weapon down 
I’ll feed you
They can’t eat you

They shut down for maintenance 
And almost float away
See the bead of sweat
No memory of day or night
Darkness or fighting
A cloud with an iron lining
Sinks beyond the salt 

We have everything we need
I love you 
This is freedom
Won’t you put your weapon down 
I’ll feed you
They can’t eat you

Hey

Arrangement: John Patrick and Marie Therrien
Hey Ay Ay
Hey
Hey Hey Hey
Hey Hey Hey
Hey Heyay
Hey
Hey Hey Hey
Hey Hey Hey
Heh Heh Heh Hay
Yeh​

Shit Post

Lyrics: John Patrick Therrien
I can’t smell your shit post 
Don’t even see your eyes close 
Both tongue tied tasting blood
I guess that’s just how it goes 
Blink, breathe 
Is this how we feed? 
Underdosed on oxytocin 
Overwhelmed by loss and frozen 

This hobbledehoy toy of a brain 
Creates sensation embodies the same 
A lame duck and a black sheep 
Found love online anonymously
Feigned subtlety 
Hate troubles me 
Disengage the rage 
Fire the sage 

I can’t smell your shit post 
Don’t even see your eyes close 
Both tongue tied tasting blood
I guess that’s just how it goes 
Blink, breathe 
Is this how we feed? 
Underdosed on oxytocin 
Overwhelmed by loss and frozen

Slipstream

Lyrics: John Patrick Therrien
There’s chaos in the slipstream 
Community in the day dream 
Confusions that we’ve seen
Can’t be undone with a delete key


There’s clarity in the get clean 
Humming while we washin’
Saw some aerodynamic scenes 
The next time you see me
I’ll be vortex surfing! 

I for an I
My oh my
Why can’t we just try 
To be one love 
When it’s all sun
When Mama Earth’s around
Oh Mama Earth is round 
When Mama Earth’s around
Oh Mama Earth is round


There’s chaos in the slipstream 
Community in the day dream 
Confusions that we’ve seen
Can’t be undone with a delete key


There’s clarity in the get clean 
Humming while we washin’
Saw some aerodynamic scenes 
The next time you see me
I’ll be vortex surfing! 

I for an I
My oh my
Why can’t we just try 
To be one love 
When it’s all sun
When Mama Earth’s around
Oh Mama Earth is round 
When Mama Earth’s around
Oh Mama Earth is round

Acoustic Chaos

Lyrics: John Patrick and Marie Therrien
 Awesome Weather
(Don’t try)
It’s chaos, drop me off
I could go for a ride
Ground my 
Abuelo
Tomorrow, awesome weather
It’s chaos, drop me off
I could go for a ride
Ground my 
Abuelo
Tomorrow, awesome weather

(It’s ridiculous)

Wolf says:
Stars are in morph
(I hate skeptics)

Wolf says:
Stars are in morph

Wolf says:
Stars are in morph
Wolf says:
Stars are in morph



I say it’s a feast out there
It’s a feast out there
I say it’s a feast out there
(Am I predator or prey, am I predator or prey)
It’s a feast out there

(Am I predator or prey?)


It’s chaos, drop me off
I could go for a ride
Ground my 
Abuelo
Tomorrow, awesome weather
It’s chaos, drop me off
I could go for a ride
Ground my 
Abuelo
Tomorrow, awesome weather

Seelen im Sturm

Lyrics: Marie Therrien
Ich will dich halten
Will Gewalten in uns spüren
Mit den Tiefen meiner Seele
Deine Wurzeln berühren
Durch Dornen wandeln 
Und dich tragen durch die Nacht
Wo Stille uns umhüllt
Und das Licht in uns erwacht

Wenn der Himmel zersplittert 
Und der Morgen sich neigt 
Was erloschen erscheint
Dem bloße Auge sich zeigt
Baden wir in den Fluten 
Aus Furcht und aus Mut
Sinken ertrinken
Werden neu geboren

Wir halten zusammen
Halten auf den Sturm
Federn ab das Feld 
Das brennt und das tobt
Und inmitten des Jammers 
Ebnet sich der Weg
Der Zweifel erstickt 
Und uns ins Leben erhebt
Wir halten zusammen
Halten auf den Sturm
Federn ab das Feld
Das brennt und das tobt


Wir falten die Hände 
Werfen ab die Last
Halten uns fest 
Bis der Zweifel verblasst
Im Atem der Stille
Im Feuer der Nacht
Zwei Seelen

Die wandeln mit Ahnenkraft

Wir halten zusammen
Bis ans Ende der Zeit
In einem Tanz aus Stille und Ewigkeit
Bis mein Körper fällt
Werde ich stehen
Hier
Inmitten der Asche
Inmitten von dir
Wir halten zusammen
Bis ans Ende der Zeit
In einem Tanz aus Stille und Ewigkeit
In einem Tanz aus Stille und Ewigkeit
In einem Tanz aus Stille und Ewigkeit​​
