Crocodiles - Felix Riebl[00:00:00]
Into the jaws of a crocodile's dream[00:00:16]
I was riding with El across borders unseen[00:00:20]
Never been there before in that beautiful strange[00:00:24]
Through the deep green jungle to the red Mars plains[00:00:28]
As the hot day drew its thick breath[00:00:32]
We were close enough to flying to be near enough to death[00:00:36]
There were ghosts swimming in my thoughts, [00:00:40]
I'd say that[00:00:43]
I've never been so close to home and so far away, as in[00:00:44]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:00:49]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:00:51]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:00:53]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:00:55]
The motor stopped and the night was still[00:01:01]
Except the fan kept clipping on the window sill[00:01:04]
And the tap kept dripping in our orange room[00:01:08]
My heart was dancing with the elephants BOOM BOOM BOOM[00:01:12]
And I, I couldn't sleep, [00:01:16]
I was wide awake[00:01:18]
Like a super mosquito couldn't catch it or escape from it[00:01:20]
I write songs, [00:01:25]
I don't often pray[00:01:27]
But I've never been so glad for the break of day, as in[00:01:28]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:01:34]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:01:36]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:01:38]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:01:40]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:01:42]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:01:44]
Headlights, bare feet, [00:01:50]
white skirts[00:01:52]
Me and Eloise and Henning meeting Mele on the outskirts[00:01:53]
Into a house where the Reggaeton blazed[00:01:58]
And the palm wine circled til our eyes were glazed[00:02:01]
There was something rare about the way he smiled[00:02:06]
As if the distance of his thoughts equaled more than miles[00:02:09]
I said, "Who we are Tony, [00:02:14]
please explain," and he said[00:02:16]
"Everybody here has at least six names," welcome to[00:02:18]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:02:23]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:02:25]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:02:27]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:02:29]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:02:31]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:02:33]
Sometimes I wonder if we cheat our own maps[00:02:47]
If we re-draw the lines, [00:02:50]
if we distort the facts[00:02:52]
Cos we're too afraid of the love of the deep[00:02:54]
Of the big, green devil in Arte Morris[00:02:58]
He'll eat up your ideas, [00:03:02]
rip up your cause[00:03:05]
Make a bite mark bigger than a king lion's roar[00:03:06]
No gauze could cover that wound, [00:03:10]
white teeth[00:03:13]
Make a crooked white wall of my country's embassy that's in[00:03:14]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:03:20]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:03:22]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:03:24]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:03:26]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:03:28]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:03:30]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:03:36]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:03:38]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:03:40]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:03:42]
Timor Leste, Timor Leste, [00:03:44]
Timor Leste, Timor…[00:03:46]
