beurbano ABCD contains warm, tender sounds and a sort of sincere and summery feeling wistfulness and sentimentality presented in beautifully crafted songs balancing loving acoustic instrumentation and absorbing, swirling electronic elements throughout. A mellow, playful, romantically tinged album, well worth a whole listen through. Favorite track: Xystus.

What you want is not Always what you get But what you need Is always the same Wants and desires You'll get what you deserve What you need Is right around the corner Somewhere secret Somewhere stored If you find it, You will be in luck But to keep it, Is asking too much Wants and desires You'll get what you deserve Wants and desires You'll get what you deserve When you want what you cannot have When you need what you do not have You may find those things Easier to get than you imagine What you want is not Always what you get But what you need Is always the same What you need Is right around the corner Somewhere secret Somewhere stored If you find it, You will be in luck But to keep it, Is asking too much Wants and desires You'll get what you deserve.

Cool water, wash the mind Deer and the wires Analogy for death Trees screaming the way back home You can't see where they point anyway The god you love is locked in a hot car The socks you wear are longer than your ideas The god you love is locked in a hot car The socks you wear are longer than your ideas Visible when it's cold Visible when it's truly cold

I cried so much in my dreams last night I screamed so much in my dreams last night I fought the ghost from you again I thought the things we hate again I forgot what you told me once again And I'm lost in my head, once again I'm lost in my head, once again And I Don't want to die alone And I Don't want to sleep alone And I Don't want to die Alone Alone

When you told me you'd run away I thought it was the truth Superficial, strange, and secure The golden tools by yours Go away, don't you come back Go away, and don't look back Go away, don't you come back Go away, and don't look back You were just kidding You were just kidding You were just kidding You were just kidding Thought you had it, thought it's done Thought you won another one Broke the boundary, broke the chain Broke down and cried again A minute left on this stopwatch Think you'd better make it count A minute left on this stopwatch Think you'd better make it count You were just kidding You were just kidding You were just kidding You were just kidding

Sing this song Sing this song to me I am warm inside your bed Warm arm beneath my head Outside, outside is frozen Ice on the roses Hold me now until it melts Warm me now until I melt To be lovers, To be lovers, To be lovers, I'd love To be lovers, To be lovers, To be lovers, To be lovers, I'd love To be lovers, To be lovers When I look out the window I see the falling snow and I I sigh.

I. Oh Quetzalcoatl My precious twin My sweet ghost You return again Transgressor, boundary-maker Of Earth and sky Quetzalcoatl My feathered serpent Your Venusian presence Returns to us again Quetzalcoatl, our creator, Quetzalcoatl, our friend II. When you feel the rain Over something tasteless You know the words to sing For this blind occasion Roots of the grass bend gently Never see the light Roots of the grass sing softly Somewhere dark but bright, Somewhere dark but bright Roots of the grass bend gently Never see the light Roots of the grass sing softly Somewhere dark but bright, Somewhere dark but bright III. Sunlight soft and summer-sweet Strawberry blood upon her teeth I take a bite of the peach The sunlight burns me once again.

A world without regret Finding something in the grass Do you think life will be different? Don't you think it's fair? Don't you? I regret to send you away Words inside a box 3 days inside my head A will to be somewhere I'm not Sun dances in through the window Fruit gone too ripe in the bowl I thought that you would give me a sign I don't think I feel alright You were alone on the stairs The heel broke off of your shoe You were the girl in the blue dress Dry air kisses your neck Smell of death on the side of the road Shoe smashed under a wheel Think of what lies there in the tall grass Horrible visage of death Now you're alone once more You've ruined anything you had She was the girl in the blue dress Horrible visage of death.

You're hurting me baby You don't know what it feels like One day you love me (You love me) And the next you disappear from sight But oh I'm trying so very hard (So very hard) To find a way To tell you that I love you What more can I say? (What more can I say?) What more can I say? What more can I say? People try to tell me (I wouldn't listen) That you were the one Now time has passed Oooooh yeah the worst has been done But Oh I'm trying so very hard (So very hard) To find a way To tell that you that I - love you What more can I say? (What more can I say?) What more can I say? And I let you in the morning baby I tell you I love you so much What more can I say? What more can I say?

Why does the sky Seem so lonely Why does the Earth Change around us Why does the sun Burn us What's it all for Why are you hurting Are you around Have you been learning Will you be here When I wake tomorrow Why (why) Why (why) Why (why) Why (why) Why are there so many questions Why are they so hard to answer If I could take it all back I thing I'd start this song over If I could see you again, do you Think I'd love you still Why are there so many questions To keep me occupied If I could take it all back I'd learn to love again If I could see you again Would we still be friends Why (why) Why (why) Why (why) Why (why) Why does the sky Seem so lonely Why does the sun Burn us?

Z (Animals) 04:11
When the April air returns The fungus and the flies come back When the night and day are gone The steel of man remains God blesses the sparrow in the gutter Who died without a name, without a time And God blesses the maggot in the brain But everything is mine Decades of man are crumbling Decades of humankind are crumbling (x2) When the April air returns The fungus and the flies come back When the night and day are gone The steel of man remains God blesses the sparrow in the gutter Who died without a name, without a time And God blesses the maggot in the brain But everything is mine Will you still love me When this world comes crashing down Will you still love me, will you When this world comes crashing down (x2) When all is said and done We are nothing more than Animals (x2)
