I will follow your path when my feet they won't touch the ground and the faces I left behind are the thrills I chase out at night Will you clear up my mind when I stand up and face the dark? and the fields they'll take me down and the streets they'll be lost and found And a wise man he once told me: - keep the memories in your mind They'll help you through the night when you're away It's so easy to pretend that we'll stay here for all time will you help me through the night when I’m away?

Honolulu 02:55
I found a little sound to break when I was needing some time alone You threw a bit of shine when it was dark in my place I’m looking for a better way I’m not the one who pretends to fall but I can make it any other day And when the troubles are fading away I’ll try to make you feel right And every single word now I cannot say It's gonna make you feel alright Now all the troubles are fading away When there is nothing I can do at least I’m trying to fix myself I don't need any sign to see we're close to an end I’m waiting for a miracle when I am feeling this cold inside I guess it's something that I just can take And when the troubles are fading away I’ll try to make you feel right And every single word now I cannot say It's gonna make you feel alright Now all the troubles are fading away I’m gonna make you feel right

Say Stop 03:11
I’m feeling kind of weird and it's not the first time I try my luck on you and it didn't work that much I used to know the story but my brain just got stacked It's somewhere out of reach and it makes me feel so sad It's somewhere out of reach and it feels like hiding under a rock Sometimes I’d like to quit but you never say stop I’m begging on my knees but you just can't get enough I got myself a cool book at the sentimental shop to show me how to live when I’m never looking back to show me how to live when I’m never looking back on the track We are all strangers beware of danger filling our brains with nothing but fakes Carrying our bodies in casual parties Waiting for someone who's taking care Looking for someone who's not scared I miss your tender smile and the way you turn around I’m never getting used and you’re never coming back I’ll drink another bottle just to see I am alive I wonder how it feels to be someone on the run I wonder how it feels to be someone on the run for a while We are all strangers beware of danger filling our brains with nothing but fakes Carrying our bodies in casual parties Waiting for someone who's taking care Looking for someone who's not scared to dance the night away

Be With You 02:56
I could lay down with you forever wait for the changing weather till it comes a new day On the rise of a burning sunlight I’ll take you to a craddle that you can't even see tonight There's a road where I lost my feelings It brings me to a limit where I wonder if I should begin To grow up every flower waiting for some trouble now you can't even see ‘Cause I’ve waited enough even though I could sleep forever I will face the night Where you go I will go forever I’ll turn into a rebel just to be with you I won't change a line even though I could take another road I will show you how beatiful are the second chances Waiting for an ending: just to be with you

Lovelight 02:47
I wanna get a little love on the saturday night I wanna take you for a ride it's just gonna be fun I wanna have a little lovelight I wanna get a little lovelight And when the forces of the feelings are struggling to fight I wanna dance I wanna jump it's just gonna be fun I wanna have a little lovelight I wanna get a little lovelight I won't feel I’m getting closer to the end till my fingers are a ball I just can't play I will call you in the morning once again till we get a little lovelight till we get a little lovelight in the end I wanna get a little love on the saturday night I wanna get into the light it's just gonna be fun I wanna have a little lovelight I wanna get a little lovelight And when the forces of the feelings are struggling to fight I wanna walk around the sun it's just gonna be fun I wanna have a little lovelight I wanna get a little lovelight I won't feel I’m getting closer to the end till my fingers are a ball I just can't play I will call you in the morning once again till we get a little lovelight till we get a little lovelight in the end

Time To Go 03:23
I am dreaming of a life that's never ending I’m turning on the screw And I’m sitting in the corner next to my house I think I’d better choose If you could leave me alone for just a minute It's time for me to move 'cause i feel like in the middle of a fight and I know I’m gonna lose I’ll keep walking in my shoes well I just have to try out I will break down every rule that I don't wanna follow 'cause I might be leaving soon and i just need the time to go I’m a stranger in the town that never sleeps and I’m lying in my roof There must be a reason why I’m not the only staring at the moon It was easier when you were ten years old you had nothing to proof Now you just can't getaway from any duty what else I gotta do? I’ll keep walking in my shoes well I just have to try out I will break down every rule that I don't wanna follow 'cause I might be leaving soon and I just need the time to go

I had to figure it out I had to leave an emotion I never thought it was fine I never thought I’d get so close I just deal with my life because I don't wanna let go Sometimes I feel so excited I just feel like my heart grows And giving it up it's never been a real option I’d just walk out when I got nothing to say Go figure it out here comes the summer promotion should we come back where we belong once again? I had to spit it all out I had to leave an emotion I found myself on the run I was fighting my own ghosts And giving it up it's never been a real option I’d just walk out when I got nothing to say Go figure it out here comes the summer promotion should we come back where we belong once again? I met a good friend in my teens He showed me how to play everything He told me stories by the sea He pushed away the clouds over me We spent some time beneath the trees Walked passed the fields surrounding the hills I was so blind but now I see If you watch out you’ll know what I mean

Little Girl 02:50
Little girl You were only just a child when you left to the country where the clouds are black Where the sirens are so true Then I knew And I feel gold everytime you get to reach my soul Understanding for the truth to be told where the sirens are so true Then I knew what I knew And everybody knows the truth: Girl, I love you like a fool I know our enemies are cruel but I do I really do I was down I was searching for the truth to come out And I waited for so long to be drowned where the sirens are so true Then I knew what I knew And everybody knows the truth: Girl, I love you like a fool I know our enemies are cruel but I do I really do

In My Dreams 03:12
I will stay by your side I’ve been here for so long  and I’ll wait by the phone until you call me down on monday I will sleep when I’m done I’ve got no strength to be shown When you leave me alone I’ll wait for you to come and hold me And it feels like I’m on the desert quietness everytime that I could see you in my dreams They'll arise and flow all around me Everytime that I could see you in my dreams There's a secret I own that I want you to know It was meant to be told against no law, once in a lifetime And it feels like I’m on the desert quietness everytime that I could see you in my dreams They'll arise and flow all around me Everytime that I could see you in my dreams

Fall Out Boy 03:14
Well I feel much better when the sun goes down and I can smell a little through the air When I don't see anyone walking by my side but I can close my eyes and see you there I know sometimes I’m gonna be the one who tricks me I will never be so close to lose my fears Once you think you know it all it breaks in pieces It's the time to be alone What you pretend? You are a fall out boy Well I feel much better when the sun goes down I move my body outside of the frame And I can't see anyone running on my back but I can close my eyes and still see you there I know sometimes I’m gonna be the one who tricks me but I will never be so close to lose my fears Once you think you know it all it breaks in pieces It's the time to be alone What you pretend? You are a fall out boy

Up All Night 03:14
I got my room disinfected I let my phone disconnected Yeah! I was waiting my lonely I When things just go complicated I got my stuff and I waited for you to come in the morning light I will wake up in the middle of the night To get by you I won't waist another time Words are gonna make you wonder for a while Since you've made a fool of mine because maybe that's a start Should I wait for you up all night? I left some flowers on your bed side I wonder how you get so high I keep on waiting for stars to shine And things just go complicated It just came true now I made it to lose my head when you're not around I will wake up in the middle of the night To get by you I won't waist another time Words are gonna make you wonder for a while Since you've made a fool of mine because maybe that's a start Should I wait for you up all night?
12.
I’ve been searching for some place to go since the very first day I was born I’ve been chasing some clouds in the wind and the storm that will dry out my skin Comes a day I’ve got nothing to show Comes a day I’d forget to live on I’ll keep waiting for you at the beach In the house I built for you and me I’ll go back in time to watch that scene where we first met when we first kissed I will rise my voice across the fields till the eco brings it back to me I will go as far as I can see I will make my way into the sea I will take my heart away and leave it all behind till I forget who I am

I just played acoustic guitars and managed to sing my best

Monica Pallí | www.monicapalli.com and Coaner Codina | www.coaner.com imagined the art for the album and made it real with lots of imagination and the help of Salvador Sabater’s drone

Jordi Llansamà at BCore Disc thought it would be a great idea to lose some money making another record together

about

Xavier Calvet CT, Spain

La música de Xavier Calvet es felicidad. Siempre lo ha sido. Lo era cuando lideraba Bullitt, banda entre el indie rock, el emo y el punk rock más melódico con la que grabó cuatro discos que siempre es recomendable recuperar y revisar. Y, sobretodo, lo es ahora, cuando en solitario ha encontrado definitivamente las coordenadas sonoras por las que conducir su trayectoria. ... more
