The sun smiles when you, start to say, you can see light, It knows that only being, is giving you, the chance to fight You need no more to fly, to climb the mountains that grew inside, To enjoy the wind that gives you wings, to fly away trying to find, Some better world that others claim, that is full of golden coins, But U Know that what U want, is not outside your own, But U know that what you want, just lives inside You stay while others run, even if they don´t have the light, To know the path to go, to reach the goal, we have in mind, You detect the draft that’s right, taking you to the other side, Where you can climb the tallest trees, and the road moves on your feet, The words pop up and decide to say, to all the people starving truth, That U Know that what U want, is not outside your own, That U know that what you want, just lives inside The sky is full of you, the rain is fetching down, the water that refreshes the ground The wind starts again, to take away the pain, And giving you the chance to say, That U Know that what U want, is not outside your own, That U know that what you want, just lives inside

Respiras 03:19
Autor: Mikel Renteria de Dios Respiras, esperas, a que te abrace una vez más, Me miras, oyendo y yo corro hasta encontrar, Un beso, un te quiero, y muchas ganas por andar, Un venga, un sigamos, y algo de luz para encontrar, Un mar que esconda el llorar y reir y volver a empezar. Y coge mi mano y grita, hoy no vamos a parar Me dices, sin ruido, que aún sueñas el ayer, Te creo y me alegro de que puedas mantener, Aquel río, ese monte y los saltos y el correr, por caminos, que ahora ruedan, pero que sueñan por volver a sentir tus pies al pisar, y que saltes y que vuelvas a andar. Y coge mi mano y grita, Hoy no vamos a parar. Me tocas, y dudas, pero ya no hay nada que temer, Sólo aventura, sólo el ahora, solo el recuerdo del ayer Levantas, sentado, me animas a cantar, un nuevo paso, una sonrisa, un nuevo aire a respirar Coge mi mano y grita, Hoy no vamos a parar. No vamos a parar.

The tear car 04:10
Autor:Mikel Renteria de Dios When I hate God, when I hate your silence, when I hate your darkness I take my car and I go for a drive and that’s my moment when I feel alive It always rains in the tear car Nobody sees us in the tear car You are sitting back, I see you on the mirror, I see your face but nothing more I turn on the radio, you remenber the sound, and when we look outside, we see nothing around. We are alone in the tear car Nobody knows about the tear car The tank is full, I have to spend it There are not rules, you can cry shit !!!! I can shy my soul, I throw out the rubbish And go back home, with all pains vanished It always rains, in the tear car Nobody sees us, in the tear car

Autor: Mikel Renteria de Dios I’m still a little child dreaming impossible dreams. Thinking someone is lying me, that things differ from what they seem I dream on reaching home at night, I see you running towards me, Then you are jumping to my arms, and then I kiss you and you kiss me. IT SHOULD BE REAL, NOT A DREAM IT SHOULD NOT FADE LIKE AN SCREAM IT SHOULD BE REAL, IT SHOULD BE REAL, BUT NOT A DREAM IT SHOULD BE REAL, IT SHOULD BE REAL, BUT NOT A DREAM I dream on touching you in the morning, I say “wake up, my son”. You say “just let me sleep for a while”, and I say “come on, come on” We are planning the whole day, I am laughing though it rains, we continue our lifes outside, and the dream starts again. IT SHOULD BE REAL, NOT A DREAM IT SHOULD NOT FADE LIKE AN SCREAM IT SHOULD BE REAL, IT SHOULD BE REAL, BUT NOT A DREAM IT SHOULD BE REAL, IT SHOULD BE REAL, BUT NOT A DREAM Those dreams make me happy, But reality hurt me to illness. Those dreams make me cry, But hope keeps me restless. IT SHOULD BE REAL, NOT A DREAM IT SHOULD NOT FADE LIKE AN SCREAM IT SHOULD BE REAL, IT SHOULD BE REAL, BUT NOT A DREAM IT SHOULD BE REAL, IT SHOULD BE REAL, BUT NOT A DREAM

Sin miedo 03:48
Autor: Mikel Renteria de Dios Me enseñaron, que lo bueno está aún por llegar Que debería, esperar para luego encontrar, Son los sueños, que otros antes soñaron por mi, Como hicieran otros tantos, con ellos así. Me pregunto, si esos sueños lo son para mi O hace falta, despertarse y luego dormir, Y soñar, sólo aquello que sueñes vivir, Y mañana, despertarte esta vez a vivir. Sin miedo, quiero vivir sin miedo Tanto tiempo, ocupado en el “qué pensarán” En mi aspecto, en mi imagen, en mi extracto social, Más me vale, no esconderme y perder ese tiempo, Que esto fluye, aunque a veces parezca tan lento. Yo ya he visto, que el futuro no viene de allí, Que si quiero que esto cambie, yo debo elegir, Que más vale que no espere, mañanas sin fin, Por si acaso ya no fueran, a serlo sin mi. Sin miedo, quiero vivir sin miedo Y aquí estoy cantando, No vaya ser que la rutina, Me duerma de nuevo Y me sueñen de nuevo la vida, Pero tengo un seguro, Que cubre el riesgo de por vida, Y es en 13 de Octubre y es el recuerdo en tu sonrisa. Sin miedo, quiero vivir sin miedo

Autor: Mikel Renteria de Dios Era otoño de aquel año, hojas heridas de frío, cayeron sobre el suelo, humedecido de dolor, Nadie pensaba que aquel árbol, tan fuerte, joven y alto pudiera ser caduco, y acabara sin abrigo, enseñando a todos un destino, que nadie sabía escrito, con savia de tinta oscura, subiendo desde lo escondido. Respiraste alrededor, y oliste alfombras de colores, eran hojas de otros, que escondían los senderos que antes eran claros, tan hondos, tan certeros para aquellos que, ignorantes, creíamos seguro, que el bosque era perenne, que la vida se escribía en hojas que no caerían, que irían narrando vidas. Y el viento pasa las hojas del libro de hoy Capítulos, de un mismo árbol que miran al sol, Que escriben con tinta escondida palabras de amor al sol del mañana Y escribiendo los caminos, bajó del cielo invierno que fue largo, fue insistente, trajo vientos escondidos Cayó nieve en copos, ligeros copos blancos Que en tierra se abrazaron, tejiendo un manto blanco, manto pesado, duro y frío que heló brotes recién nacidos, congeló momentos viejos, nubló en niebla el destino. Y el viento pasa las hojas del libro de hoy, Capítulos de un mismo árbol que miran al sol, Que escriben con tinta escondida, palabras de amor, AL SOL DE MAÑANA. Aquel invierno pasó y ahora el sol calienta más Y algunas hojas que has brotado ya pueden respirar Pero otros, se han mezclado con sus hojas en caminos. Tumbadas descansan raíces bajo pájaros amarillos, que unos posan en sus camas en recuerdo de lo no vivido, Que otros posan en el mármol, calentando hasta el olvido. Y ahora sé que este árbol que en sus hojas yo había escrito, era un sueño, era el de un niño, que aún planta nuevos libros, que aún sueña con cantarlos, y que los leas tú conmigo, que aún sueño con soñarlos y que los sueñes tú conmigo.

I see your face, smiling white, Shining on the landscape that recalls me back to you. I see you race as, if were now, Running down the hill, the ball was pumping fast and you, u are still here, u are still here, u are still here, u are still here We sing the song, that flows from your soul, You play the chords, that take us our home (bis) You stay by me, with open eyes Mountains look at you, missing the caress of your feet You don’t see me, but you can hear, The wind is flowing hard, composing chords that you can play You play with me, your are still here, you okay with me We sing the song, that flows from your soul, You play the chords, that take us our home The notes are your smile, your heart sets the beat, Your soul is the amp, and the guitar is me, The song is our life, the way it should be, The chord is the one, that we should repeat Cause you are still here, cause you are still here. We sing the song, that flows from your soul, You play the chords, that take us our home Cause YOU ARE STILL HERE

AnJonMa 04:49
Autor: Mikel Renteria de Dios Sometimes, a song becomes the centre Those times you think it can´t be better That’s the way I feel my life Sometimes I think it’s simply perfect (BIS) I LOVE MY LIFE I LOVE YOU WIFE THE LIFE WE MADE THE LIFE ANJONMA Maybe, some things are not so good Maybe, there’s a lot to be improved But I am better than yesterday And that’s the best that I can say I LOVE MY LIFE I LOVE YOU WIFE THE LIFE WE MADE THE LIFE ANJONMA If we don’t look back too much, But stare at the present life and live, If we stare at your smile, Don’t need to get no more for a ride. If you continue on my side, if you hold my hand and breathe ! We will go on with our fight Don’t need to get no more for a ride. I LOVE MY LIFE I LOVE YOU WIFE THE LIFE WE MADE THE LIFE ANJONMA

Autor: Mikel Renteria de Dios A veces te miro y me echo a temblar No entiendo quién pudo crear, Un rostro tan bello, tan lleno de paz, Que brilla con solo mirar A tu lado quiero estar Me miras, sonríes y no puedo respirar, El aire se ha hecho de sal, Que aliña mi vida recoge humedad, De penas que pronto se van, A tu lado quiero estar Tú eres mi vida, no hay nada más, Que tu sonrisa, que me hace amar, Tú eres mi vida, y lo demás, Sólo un refugio, donde contigo estar A tu lado quiero estar Y cuando me echo a descansar, Ya no hay más sueños que soñar, Sólo uno bueno, de verdad, Y es que tú estés al despertar, A tu lado quiero estar Tú eres mi vida, no hay nada más, Que tu sonrisa, que me hace amar, Tú eres mi vida, y lo demás, Sólo un refugio, donde contigo estar A tu lado quiero estar

Autor: Mikel Renteria de Dios I see you coming up the old town road Dust on shoes, from loads of battles. Still remains like a painting restored Your shining smile refuged in castles Enemies still don’t know how They didn´t beat you when they had the chances But I know why they can´t understand. It’s because they care about them I remember when you parted away, Still wearing those small clothing, Full of life and empty of rage you didn´t know the desert facing Still don’t know if someone but you Could traverse the dusty crossing But I knew you were ready to go With the power of your smile dawning In the past the night was darker, and the only light you had was the waning moon, Then the life was jungle, and the only goal was saving from the coldest wind, Now the sun is lighting and when looking back you see you were never alone, Now you stare at me and I realize that I wear the same dusty boots. Cause you are never alone Every day you’re waiting my kiss, Your sparkling eyes prepared for me, I ask how good were your dreams, And your smile becomes the answer. It always says that they were so good, That we shall wear our new clean wheels, Ride the road that crosses the woods, With the power of your smile dawning CAUSE YOU ARE NEVER ALONE

Autor: Mikel Renteria de Dios I was driving down to Austin, far away from my hometown, Looking through my new sunglasses that give colour to the world, Ahead four lanes three hundred mails on the straight route 35th And I wish you were sat with me painting wheels on gravel roads (bis) In the van my five friend-bandmates, hearing to the Texas’ sounds On their faces shines the landscape that recalls us to those notes, Of the soundtrack of our feelings almost since we all were born, We will try to build some chords of the joy&pain of our lifes (bis) Now’s the time to start the long trip that will take us to our homes, In short you’ll be in my arms while I’m singing you this song… Saying we have friends in Texas that’ll be singing from now on … That our dreams are now their dreams that we we will never drive alone (bis) That our dreams are now their dreams painting wheels on gravel roads

AUTOR: Mikel Renteria de Dios Yesterday I mailed you, I didn’t get a response I thought U were still fighting, against the black growing lord But then I got a short message, saying is not time for more roads, I understood you were tired, and that you wanted to go. I told you, hey my friend, please don’t go away I Told you hey my friend, we will find a way Then I remembered, the path that you left, that you left on your back, And I realized that the lane, that you have already made, Is at least the double, of the people’s that go much faster to nowhere, I understood you were tired, and that you weren’t afraid I told you, hey my friend, please don’t go away I Told you hey my friend, we will find a way Anyway, anyhow, I want to enjoy you now, So please, laugh again, joke and breathe and throw the load of pain away, Anywhere, anyhow, I will sing so loud, So please, hear me, move inside, and never let the pain break the smile I told you, hey my friend, please don’t go away I Told you hey my friend, we will find a way Now you left, and you rest, and you are gone, to the west, Where we go, but till then, you stay here, And the best’s that you say Hey my friend, hey my friend, please don’t go away, Hey, hey my friend, you will find a way. You tell us, hey my friend, please don’t go away, Hey, hey my friend, you will find a way.

Sueña 03:46
Autor: Mikel Renteria de Dios Ayer viniste corriendo, tenías que contarme tu sueño, Era de esos que parecen real, más, que la realidad A veces los sueños se olvidan, y eso no podía pasar, Lo narraste con ojos vidriosos, porque hablaba del dolor de recordar Y sobre todo de esperanza y de un futuro por llegar Y SUEÑA, SUEÑA, Y SUEÑA, SUEÑA HASTA QUE SE HAGA REALIDAD Soñaste como un niño grande, al que viste de pequeño crecer, Tu cara brillando feliz, por escuchar su voz crecer, Y le oíste cómo hablaba, y te contaba otra vez, sus nuevos guardados anhelos, que volvían a nacer, Por largo tiempo retenidos, en busca de amanecer, Y SUEÑA, SUEÑA, Y SUEÑA, SUEÑA HASTA QUE SE HAGA REALIDAD Y quiero decirte que tus sueños son los míos, Y que sueño despierto y dormido, Y que creo que en ellos hay verdad que si muchos los soñamos quizás se hagan realidad, y que pase lo que pase, y llueva lo que llueva, nunca dejemos de soñar. Y crear nuevos futuros donde sea aún más fácil habitar.
