I'm an amplifier
I am empathy
I'm a lesbian trapped in a man's body
I'm you and them and her
I'm those poor souls
washed out on foreign shores
I'm those poor souls
washed out on foreign shores
I'm a tympany
I vibrate like a membrane
The amplitude of this resonance might break me
I am those poor souls
washed out on foreign shores
I am those poor souls
washed out on foreign shores
My head clings to your image
Idealised my doll
My idle idol
You never can be wrong
And even if you are
And even if you seem to be
I'm in heaven safe in your haven
I am in heaven in your haven

Dans le casino de Knokke-le-Zout
Y a des touristes un peu out
Qui viennent passer leur mois d'août
Dans les vapeurs de mazout
Dans le casino de Knokke-le-Zout,
Y a des mamies à choucroute
Qui s'agitent qui s'ajoutent
D'un pas lourd de mammouth
Dans l'casino de Knokke-le-Zout,
Y a des mecs genre boyscouts
Qui se la pètent coûte que coûte
Et franchement, ça ´m dégoutte
Y se baladent en Plymouth
Claquent leur tune pour des croutes
Y ´s' la jouent Hollywood
Avec leur mégère prout prout
Mais on est à Knokke-le-Zout
Et z'ont juste l'air du pauvre Knud,
Dont le fils vient d'faire son coming out
Et qui se demande si "c'est d'sa faute"
Dans la ville de Knokke-le-Zout,
Cet endroit insolite
Où personne n'habite
Mais qu'est ce que tu veux qu'je foute ?
Dans la ville de Knokke-le-Zout
Quel casino
I lost everything
Everything I had
And I´ll die tonight
On this shore´s drive

Monday, Tuesday
The week is long
I´ll always look away
And find myself alone
And my name is like a song
When you call
It´s always a matter of time
Until I am with you
Monday, Tuesday
I feel like a ghost
I wonder with no direction
Until I am with you
Monday, Tuesday
I long between
You might see me standing there waiting for you
Saxophone solo
Monday, Tuesday
The week is long
I always look away
And find myself alone
When you call my name
When you call
Monday, Tuesday
The week is long
Before I get to see you
I´ll always feel alone
And my name is like a song
When you call

part 2
The wind messes with your hair
Turning your head into a landscape
Where I wanna lose myself
Forever
The wind plays in your hair
It´s a landscape
In which I lose myself

Waves

Like waves, like rain, like sand,
We ripple down
Our salty tears retain the taste of the ocean
We flow and swing,
Evaporate like the wind
And live with fear like hanging in the air
Like bugs, like mist, we float
Like dust that floats and falls
We rest our minds, abandon fight
Dispersed and fearful in the light
Like ice, like snow, like the wax on a candle
Like dust we float and land on a bookshelf
We rest our minds
Abandon fight
And slowly loose control of everything
Like stubborn little creatures
Threatened to be crushed
Crawling disorderly
Running for shelter at every sound
Like a mad dog barking and jumping
Like a mad dog banging at the gate
Hurting itself
Like a mad dog barking and jumping
Like a wild beast banging at the gate
Conditioned to every move

Australium Brussels, Belgium
Dominic and David started playing music together at the age of 13 with their first band, fighting teenage boredom in the
dull and rainy city of Luxembourg.
After having lost contact for nearly 20 years, they started making music again when Dom paid a visit to David on the old continent.
Oh yes by the way : David lives in Brussels and Dominic in Melbourne.
