about

"Même si on ne nous laisse qu'une ruelle exiguë à arpenter, au-dessus d'elle il y aura toujours le ciel tout entier"
- Etty Hillesum

lyrics

"Bicycles are stopped on the pavement
Some pages fly away
And she’s writing to be true
She’s just smiling at her window

Empty eyes are staring at her
And their feet became heavy as stones
She’s not crying or hating
She’s praying to the dawn

Flags were flapping for the muddy king
And her words stamp dirty walks
She’s not just fighting the deepsea inside
She’s loving until the dusk
And the water flows
Lord only knows this
No more shadows
Forget the tolling-bell this morning"
