lyrics

Absent Bodies
(lyrics: Karolina Beimcik)

english:

who would have thought that you knew me by heart?
you possess the sensitivity to move me like this
and turn painful words into a laugh
 who would have thought?

we traverse continents
without contours or colors
we pass through transparency
of the absent bodies

polish:

kto by pomyślał,
że tak dobrze mnie znasz?
posiadasz wrażliwość
by dotknąć mnie tak
bolesne słowa obrócić w żart
kto by pomyślał?

przemierzamy kontynenty
bez konturów ani barw
przenikamy przezroczystość
nieobecnych ciał
