I wrote me a book I hid the last page I didn't even look I think I locked it in a cage Wrote a novel Cause everybody likes to read a novel It started with a word And it started pretty well About a rare and fragile bird that I couldn't even spell On the table I think I left it on the table I found the last page in the sky Cold and sweet, like an apple I found you and now the story has its proper end All alone Will you be mine? I haven't felt this alive in a long time All the streets are warm today I read the signs I haven't been this in love in a long time The sun is up, the sun will stay All for the new day The very last breath of the hero of our tale Would you only to guess Did he truly prevail In the the sequel? I guess I'll have to write a sequel My favorite part's when I die In your arms like a movie It's tragic, but now the story has its proper end All alone Will you be fine? I haven't felt this alive in a long time All the streets are warm and grey I read the signs I haven't been this in love in a long time The sun is up the sun will stay All for the new day Will you be mine? The days are short and I've wrote me my last rhyme All the streets are warm today I read the signs I haven't been this in love in a long time It's been a long time

Who are you? Who am I to you? I am the antichrist to you Fallen from the sky with grace Into your arms race Lucid lovers me and you A deal of matchless value I was always quick to admit defeat Empty statements of bones and meat And my heart it shook with fear I'm a coward behind a shield and spear Take this sword and throw it far Let it shine under the morning star Who are you? Who am I to you? I am the antichrist to you Fallen from the sky with grace Into your arms race One for my heart and two for show Three tears for all the souls below One day we made them into figurines Burned them all with all my favorite things Who are you? Who am I to you? I am the antichrist to you Fallen from the sky with grace Into your arms race Who are you? Who am I to you? I am the antichrist to you Fallen from the sky with grace Into your arms...

Hey Big Star 03:06
When we were very young We were separated From the story in the center of our heart Never to know how it ends And when we met again In a digital dream We would seem to be connected with a lifeline Heavy with weights of our gravity Hey Big Star, you shine too bright I'm in love with you, I'm your comet tonight Swept me away in your blinding sun We'll melt someday into each other So every day I spent Every penny as a sentiment Heaven only knows what I meant to say It's better to be with another Is it for you to say That we be lovers in another life? If all the stars align in the way we love life It's nothing short of a miracle Hey Big Star, you shine too bright I'm in love with you, I'm your comet tonight Swept me away in your blinding sun We'll melt someday into each other Hey Big Star, you shine too bright I'm in love with you, I'm your comet tonight Swept me away in your blinding sun We'll melt some day, we'll melt some day Hey Big Star, you shine too bright I'm in love with you, I'm your comet tonight Swept me away in your blinding sun We'll melt some day into each other

Q&A 03:53
You are the answer to my question You are my accomplice in a crime You are my wing woman and did I mention We were together in another life? In that dreaming, you probably were my wife Hotaru Hotaru Futari no yume wo mireru hotaru no Hotaru Hotaru Tsuneru to yume ga Sameru hotaruyoru ’cause we worshipped in sin for fun Two melting candles against the sun Modern angels they broke our wings in the wind For what? Decorated by man and time Ornamental and quite devine Manifested in their commitment to Flay our minds You are the answer to my question You are my accomplice in a crime You are my wing woman and did I mention We were together in another life? In that moment, you probably were my wife Hotaru Hotaru Futari no yume wo mireru hotaru yoru In the twilight they danced and played The fireflies they go light like cray In the dreaming we struck each other and prayed For pain You are the answer to my question You are my accomplice in a crime You are my wing woman and did I mention We were together in another life? In that dreaming, you probably were my wife

about

A collection of my favorite songs by Kishi Bashi, who I came across around 2014 before the release of his second album. His studio work is great and his live shows are a joy. I cannot sing like him.
