Lyrics Bai​ļ​u maize
Izvijas upe kā rēta ielejai cauri Mēness, izdzēris upi, pazūd līdz rītam
Stundas pārvieto nākamās stundas gadsimtiem tālu Aukstumā sarāvies embrijs tavus sirdspukstus klausās
Pārnakšņot nogulies smagi starp mēmajiem kokiem Melns gruzdēs tavs siluets pērnajā zālē
Sapnī māte tev baros bailes kā maizi Mācīs, kā aizpeldēt tālu, kā akmenim nogrimt
Kā akls taustoties, izskalots smilšainā krastā Dūņu mēles gar kājām glaužas un ievelk
Ziemeļu puslodes ledājos atbalso kliedziens Meklē atspulgu, ēnu, zīmi no kāda
Sapnī māte tev baros bailes kā maizi Mācīs, kā aizpeldēt tālu, kā akmenim nogrimt
English Translation Bread of Fear
The river winds like a scar through the Valley The moon, having drunk the river, disappears until morning
Hours move the next hours centuries away Cold-contracted embryo listens to your heartbeat
Lie heavily among the dumb trees overnight Black in grizzlies your silhouette in last grass
In a dream your mother will feed you fear like bread Teach how to swim far, how to rock down
Washed up on a sandy bank like a blind grope Mud tongues clatter and tuck in at the feet
An outcry echoes in the glaciers of the northern hemisphere Looking for reflection, shade, sign from someone
In a dream your mother will feed you fear like bread Teach how to swim far, how to rock down
Songwriter: Marta Kreituse
