about

« Dear intrusive diary, yesterday night was grueling. I received another message from nowhere and beyond. This one was really particular thus I asked an old friend of mine to restore it.
I can see a frail little wooden house in the midst of a cotton field assailed by the wind. lt seems somebody’s looking for someone. The plausible runaway might be in danger but I haven’t figured out why yet. We're losing him, we're losing him!
And there’s this male voice behind… frightening voice. »
September 5, 1924 ~ E. Phœte

lyrics

Music & Lyrics: Phœte
Voices: Marita Vangen Bratteteig, Kaligan, Stylish Freddy

Telephone me
I can't wait here 'til my old days
Among candles and old portraits
About to fade away
Telephone me

Telephone me
Just one word I could save
Instead of believin'
You'd better run away
Telephone me


At night I feel worried
Flooded by old memories.
All those stories
And all your glories
You may never tell
(In the meantime Kaligan says)
In the shadow we all know
Nobody has ever grown
For the stars those want to aim
Into dust they'll be aflame.
He might be faint, almost dead.
Keep your pain and abdicate.

But you are not alone
You'll find your way back home
Across the winds
And across the tears
Never change your way.


Telephone me
I can't stand here 'til my last day
Surrounded by dismays
That will not move away
Telephone me

Telephone me
Forgive me but I can't stare
At all your broken dreams
Leave your wings away and
Telephone me

Nobody's ever figured out what they were about so far.
