Voyvoda - Voden Vs Edessa EP Lyrics

1.Bunt

keep sinking quietly
celebrating bullets
count all the nooses/collect all the crosses
drinking in the deathcars

keep crawling quietly
searching for romance
electrified guillotines/ gps on severed limbs
Robespierre's alive again

bunt, bunt, bunt, bunt

2. Hills Of Blood

in fields of wheat
upon hills of blood
we were born and then
erased forever

I found you
by the road
with your neck slit
with your face burned

I'd seen you beg
while they stole your land
and then on the 15th of June
they burned your city down
you could have fled with the army
you could have hidden in the fields
but you waited
for the man with the star on his forehead
and he never came

lost in a circle of vultures
no identity no home
no ethnicity nor history
you never existed
your life was a forgery
but I'll leave your eyes forever open
so you can watch us when we come back

3. Ханъма/Hanuma

You say you were born that way, hey
but you know I am not buying it
I am not too fond of humans
but sadly you dont see me
hanging them on the street lamps

When the party's over they'll spit you out
hanging in the gutter with nowhere to go
you used to be useful
you used to be so cute
but now only the revolver is waiting for you

selling you out, I am selling you out
selling you out, we're selling you out
selling you out, they are selling you out
selling you out, everybody is seling you out

4. Lost In Fogland

I give you my hand
you rip it away
surrender you say
is the only way out
everything goes wrong
on Rue De Calais
everything breaks down
on 118 Chemin Vert

Wave, Wave, Wave the White Flag
Wave, Wave,Wave the White Flag
we're lost in fogland

when I see you crawling on the street
I am gonna walk away
when you reach your hand at me
I am gonna spit in your face
cause all your friends say I am no good
and they must be right
so pick a noose, follow the crows
and lets wave goodbye

Wave, Wave, Wave the White Flag
Wave, Wave,Wave the White Flag
we're lost in fogland

I'm not going to wave the white flag

5. Venelin 1/ Венелин 1

Престани да ходиш
с наведена глава
Престани да дишаш
под диктата на чуждата ръка

Аз и Ти, Ти и Аз

повити в черно
в море от сълзи
живеем безгрижно
чакайки денят

мъждука светлина
на Венелин 1
кръв, пот, свобода
на Венелин 1

Аз и Ти, Ти и Аз

повити в черно
в море от сълзи
живеем безгрижно
чакайки денят!

6. Voden Vs Edessa

walk on the streets of Voden
searching for ghosts
its been 40 years, 10 months and 5 days
since you last saw your shadow
I was looking through the fence
when they took you away
and closed the door
it took 40 days, 3 hours and 2 minutes
till I saw you in the opposite trench

Patriarch or Exarch,
a red star under a Marshall plan,
we used to be brothers
now I am not sure about it anymore
relatives fade into ideals,
values into hearts
smoke a cigarette in Edessa
in the old canteen next to the Church

baptize me in blood
with a new name
baptize me in blood
with a new soul

baptize me in blood
with a new name, new heart a new soul
baptize me in blood
with a new name, a new heart a new soul

maybe after all of this
wasted moments of heartache
I will find you again at the same place
where I left you 40 years ago
headstones should be bilingual
so you can multiply
all of your memories times two
but still there will never be again
never exist
never a home
never come back
never return

never again
never return
never

7. Isaura

an ocean of love between us
with tides of confusion and fear
come swim with me underwater
lets build a bridge between Tsarigrad and Rome

we're victims of globalization
lost adrift at sea
I am waiting by the coast
to see you swimming with the sirens
but I know you'll never come

between Isaura and Hitar Petar
there cant be a romance
I smell the blood of my neighbors
while you just want to dance , dance
Isaura, Isaura

I'll walk on the water for you
I'll turn my blood into wine
then walk back from Golgotha
but I know its of no use
cause

between Isaura and Hitar Petar
there cant be a romance
I smell the blood of my neighbors
while you just want to dance ,dance
I am always waiting for the next revolution
while you just want to make love and live in confusion
Isaura, Isaura
Isaura, Isaura
