lyrics

When we celebrate flowers dying
Broken petals wither and fall
Then we mourn how life’s a spark lost in the dark
Can I be found on the map of stars?

When our footprints become fossils
When an amber freezes all my thought
We’ll become crystal thousand years from now
Will they know how to understand all our facial expressions
When they see one of us laughing with tears or crying with a smile

Not a photograph can store our sepia dreams
Yet dreams are just chemical reactions in our brains
Like potassium, sodium, calcium and such
How I miss the gravity supporting unconditionally
Orientation is missed when the sun don’t rise from east
Have we really left behind all our history and time
We cry and mourn for how memories fade away
With our hair of grey

Will there be rain? What’s the color of the sky?
Will we have a moon to bring along the tides?
How can I keep track of time? How long is a day?
Will we be the smallest creatures? Or invading giants?
Are we dust that no one notices like ashes from the fire?
Nothing will ever be the same
Everything will have to change
We cry and mourn for how beauty fades away

Until we learn to celebrate stars dying
How the explosion bursts into light
Yes, we’ve traveled thousands light years from home
When will we know how to move on from this point of no return
There’s no word to describe
Why laugh with tears or cry with a smile
And this is how we’ve become one of the stars that we wished upon
Our past gone in the dark but shines in our heart
We’re one of the stars that we wished upon

about

Mateusz Pulawski Amsterdam, Netherlands

Pulawski (1991) stands out with his virtuoso skills and the freedom with which his compositions move. Despite being overcome by the romanticism he is certainly not avoiding the confrontation with challenging improvisations. (..) he's dosing his jazzy orchestral chord work with the melodic solos, where his fabulous techique calls up the memories of the legedary Wim Overgaauw.
