lyrics

I heard some flawless theories where people gave their life.
I saw this abstract love burning in my woman’s heart.
I failed to live out a tale ; kept on changing the bitter end.
Forsee the twilight of my life ; regrets painted on my face.

Pictures of smiles in alleys where we used to wander.
Still see the ghosts of my past, rusted poets who lost their soul.
And they would shed no light.
No word no lies to feel alive and seize the day
Cold nights to fall apart.
They drift into a random maze to crawl away to die.

Breaking idols and muses to sense the life around me.
You’re still in placid contemplation ; with pearls sparkling in my eyes
And they would shed no light.
No word no lies to feel alive and seize the day
Cold nights to fall apart.
They drift into this random maze to crawl away to die.

Astray and forgotten
as so many before
Waiting for a new dawn to get a new part
Is there an oblivion
to hide away

The world is crumbling upon my head
No dice to roll this time
Why awake these days
Is there something new for me to see to live to feel to ponder.

Maobi is a rock band with harp and live painting.
The cristal harmonies of the harp minggle with the profound vovals in intimistic composition on the border of post-rock and atmospheric sounds.
