A NIGHT LIKE THIS
I close my eyes
On a night like this
Under a desert sky
I close my eyes
For a thousand years
For a thousand years
For a thousand years
I lost my dreams
On a night like this
Fade away
Fade away
And I look in the mirror
It’s all secure
On a night like this
An ancient life, an ancient town
Forgotten gods are rising up
And I look in the mirror
An ancient life, an ancient town
Forgotten gods are rising up
And I look in the mirror
And I look in the mirror
It’s all secure
On a night like this
Fade away
Fade away
I close my eyes
On a night like this
Under a desert sky
I close my eyes
For a thousand years
For a thousand years
For a thousand years
And I look in the mirror
It’s all secure
On a night like this
An ancient life, an ancient town
Forgotten gods are rising up
And I look in the mirror
An ancient life, an ancient town
Forgotten gods are rising up
And I look in the mirror

NAKED
This night will be endless
And I hope you know why
And the shadows will change and expire
They won’t hide the light
Won’t hide the light
And the shadows will change and expire
While I’m singing my song
And my heart
Is still a rebel wild
A rebel wild
And tonight, all the stars might be drunk
As the moon’s in a trembling mind
Like the colours of a Flemish painting
Dreams are never fade
Dreams are never fade
On this night of the falling angels
And I hope you know why
And the lights will change and light up
The tower behind
Behind
It might be safe forever
Forever
If I could tell you, I’d let you know
If I could tell you, I’d let you know
I would let you know
I would let you know
I would let you know
And I feel naked
And I feel naked

Maybe God Knows

MAYBE GOD KNOWS
I don’t know the burden of a wizard’s dream
I don’t know its spell and what I can believe
I don’t know the reason why heaven should be real
I don’t know the answer
Maybe God knows
Maybe God knows
I don’t know what’s human in a modern world
I don’t know the doom – the judgement of hurt
I don’t know the reason why hell should be real
And what about the hellfire?
Maybe God knows
Love and hate
Courage and fear
I don’t the answer
The thin line in between
Love and hate
Courage and fear
I don’t the answer
The thin line in between
Let’s talk about love, let’s talk about hate
I don’t know the thin line in between
Let’s talk about love, let’s talk about hate
I don’t know the thin line in between
I don’t know the cost of a wizard’s spell
I don’t know the key and no one can tell
I don’t know the answer and I’d better think twice
If Judas Iscariot really was right
Maybe God knows
Love and hate
Courage and fear
I don’t the answer
The thin line in between
Love and hate
Courage and fear
I don’t the answer
The thin line in between
Let’s talk about love, let’s talk about hate
I don’t know the thin line in between
Let’s talk about love, let’s talk about hate
I don’t know the thin line in between
Maybe God knows

FRIENDS OF MINE
I sing my song of the lonesome town
Just for a while, come on, let’s sit down
And I know that you know, you can’t deny
It’s me on the street, simply cast aside
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
I sing my song of the lonesome lake
Just for a while come on take a break
I know that you know, you can’t deny
It’s me at the shore under a red diamond sky
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
You listen to my song and I hope you’re all fine
I sing my song of the lonesome road
Just for a while, come on, please take note
I know that you know, you can’t deny
It’s me on this road along the far side
Where are you, all friends of mine?
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
I sing my song of the lonesome sky
Just for a while, come on, take your time
I know that you know, you can’t deny
It’s me in the blue in this pale sunset light
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
You open your eyes and I hope you’re not blind
I sing my song of the lonesome end
Just for a while, come on, take my hand
I know that you know, you can’t deny
It’s me on the deathbed and I am all smiles
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
Where are you, dear friends of mine?
You stand by my grave and I hope that you cry

RESURGENCE
A missing letter in my name
Deep water without rain
I’m dreaming
Resurgence
A minor chord out of scale
A band is playing miles away
And I’m listening
Resurgence
Resurgence
I understand what love never would
I understand what love never could
And the howling wind
Is crying and crying
From a mountain so high
That love never would
And the howling wind
Is crying and crying
From a water so deep
That love never could
The king’s speech in the servant’s mind
A wild garden full of poisoned vines
The old times are fading
Resurgence
A lighthouse far from the sea
A mermaid born to be
In a life out of water
Resurgence
I understand what love never would
I understand what love never could
And the howling wind
Is crying and crying
From a mountain so high
That love never would
And the howling wind
Is crying and crying
From a water so deep
That love never could
Resurgence

Where Has It all Gone

WHERE HAS IT ALL GONE
I see the shadow in your face
The fields of green an empty place
Where has it all gone?
Where has it all gone?
The summer closed and left your heart
Flowers faded in the yard
Where has it all gone?
Where has it all gone?
Still time for hope
Still time for faith
Still time for love
It will always last
The silence in your distant mind
The echoes low and far behind
Where has it all gone?
Where has it all gone?
I see in you the faithful child
I know you are, I won’t be blind
Where has it all gone?
Where has it all gone?
Still time for hope
Still time for faith
Still time for love
It will always last
Still time for hope
Still time for faith
Still time for love
It will always last

RAINBOW MAN
I’m a rainbow dancer
I’m dancing in the sun
And my heart is full of rain
I’m a rainbow dancer
I’m dancing through the clouds
And all the pattern’s clear
And all the pattern’s clear
Out of the blue into the yellow light
The violet line is close beside
And true colours are shining
That’s why I’m here
I’m a rainbow dancer
I’m dancing in the sun
And my heart is full of pain
And my heart is full of pain
I’m a rainbow dancer
And I’m dancing in the sky
The colours are all mine
The colours are all mine
Can you see the orange dream?
From red to green – it’s in between
And true colours are shining
That’s why I’m here
That’s why I’m here
I’m a rainbow man
I’m a rainbow man
That’s why I’m here
I’m a rainbow man
That’s why I’m here
That’s why I’m here

Dark Suzanne
It’s you I miss
Wherever you are
I feel your bliss
I reach the stars
In the night
Dark Suzanne
I feel your lips
Wherever you are
I know your kiss
I touch the sky
With my mind
In the night
What do we believe?
What do we believe?
What do we believe?
What do we believe?
Dark Suzanne
I know your heart
Wherever you go
I remember the start
Our secret vows
In the night
Dark Suzanne
I know your dreams
Whatever you do
I feel your tears
There is no truth
When the lovers are tired
In the night
What do we believe?
What do we believe?
What do we believe?
What do we believe?

I Come To Grief
04:13

I COME TO GRIEF
The night is closing and I’m breathing
A hundred times – a hundred nights
Through windowpanes the lights are bleeding
I’m on my own – tonight
And I feel you in my brain
The silent moon sends me insane
Feel a funeral in my mind
Where have you been – where have you gone?
I come to grief
And I’ll be home, back with the dawn
I’ll embrace the seasons of my life
From high above you can see
The sun through my wild eyes
The sun through my wide eyes
Like a nameless summer breeze
I touch your face and wonder
The night is dreaming and I’m walking
A hundred miles – a hundred ways
Out in the dark a drop of rain
Falls on my lips, it feels all right
When I hold you in my arms
Just a second beyond the stars
I feel freedom in my mind
Where have you been – what have I done?
I come to grief
And I’ll be home, back with the dawn
I’ll embrace the seasons of my life
From high above you can see
The sun through my wild eyes
The sun through my wide eyes
Like a nameless summer breeze
I touch your face and wonder
The night gets old and I’m weeping
A hundred years – a hundred tears
I’m heading for illusion street
But I can’t complain – I won’t
And I kiss you in my dream
The fearless moon becomes unreal
See a wedding in my mind
Where have you been – where have you gone?
And I’ll be home, back with the dawn
I’ll embrace the seasons of my life
From high above you can see
The sun through my wild eyes
The sun through my wide eyes
Like a nameless summer breeze
I touch your face and wonder
I come to grief
I come to grief

APOLOGISE
In this time
All the shame inside
My hope
My fear
By now
In my dream
In my song
One day you’ll come
One day you’ll see
Tonight
I apologise
For you
I apologise
Tonight
A silver line
All the shades behind
My wish
My pride
I can’t breath
I can’t talk
One day you’ll know
One day you’ll feel
Tonight
I apologise
For you
I apologise
A dream I know in mind
A dream that’s yours and mine
Tonight
I apologise
For you
I apologise
Tonight
I apologise
For you
Tonight
For you

THE WORLD IS GOING ON
It’s your own fading light
Why can’t you see?
It’s your own restless mind
Why can’t you sleep?
It’s your own shattered dream
Why can’t you fear?
It’s your own silent scream
Why can’t you hear?
Why can’t you hear?
It’s your own wonderful life
It’s your own wonderful world
And the world is going on
As all our lives become one
And the world is going on
As all our hearts become one
And the world is going on
As all our loves become one
And the world is going on
As all our prayers become one
It’s your own aimless road
Why can’t you leave?
It’s your own sinking boat
Why can’t you steer?
Why can’t you steer?
It’s your own wonderful life
It’s your own wonderful world
And the world is going on
As all our lives become one
And the world is going on
As all our hearts become one
And the world is going on
As all our loves become one
And the world is going on
As all our prayers become one
It’s your own starving child
Why can’t you see….

Hold On To This Night

HOLD ON TO THIS NIGHT
A thousand dreams in every night
And this unknown feeling won’t change our mind
And a thousand words so true and kind
Words at once so hard to find
Stay near to me in this velvet shine
Near as the grapes to the seducing vine
And we taste the vine tonight
Hold on to this night
A thousand shades in every night
And this unknown feeling out of sight
And peaceful prayers so true and kind
Prayers at once so hard to find
Stay near to me down on the blossom lane
Near as the rainbow to the summer rain
And the rain will flush away the pain
Hold on to this night
Hold on to this night
A thousand vows in every night
And this unknown feeling by our side
All these answers true and kind
At once so difficult to find
Stay near to me in this fading light
Near as the teardrop to the loving eye
And I feel this love in our mind
Hold on to this night
Hold on to this night
Hold on to this night
Hold on to this night

The Beauty of Gemina Zürich, Switzerland
“The Beauty Of Gemina” have been performing live for 15 years. Nine studio albums, top-ten hits in the alternative charts throughout Europe and sold-out concerts all over the world line the trail of the dark indie band around the songwriter and mastermind Michael Sele. ... more

I like the subtle way in which the tracks connect to the album cover, making this resting maiden the center point — calm in the midst of storm. (Just my interpretation maybe but the cover gives extra depth to the music... a softer undertone). The image reminds me of ‘Annunciation’ by Dante G. Rossetti used in ‘Adrenaline’ music video. ‘Smoke and Mirrors’ puts me at peace with big disappointments — a bittersweet musical potion.
