The Swamp Song 02:39
lyrics
buy track
I am walking on a narrow and rickety bridge over an endless, boggy swamp of fear and despair. There are days in which the scenery is so beautiful and the air is so fresh and pleasant, that for a moment I forget where I am. Suddenly I lose balance and fall into the swamp.

A short song for an ant that worked so hard. Every day and every hour she worked and didn’t stop. This is a song for an ant.

I Didn't Reach the Light by Windfall 02:44
lyrics
buy track
I didn't reach the light by windfall, Not even inherited it from my father. But from my rock and flint I hewed it, I quarried it from my heart. One spark in the mine of my heart is hiding, A small spark – but it’s all mine. I neither borrowed it from anybody, nor stole it – Because it came from me, and it is inside of me.
