All lyrics by Nicholas Edward Cave

" So if you're sitting all alone and hear a-knocking at your door
And the air is full of promises, well buddy, you've been warned"

Frauenkirche, Amberg i.d.Opf [2021]

"All those good people
Down on Jubilee Street
They ought to practice what they preach"

Arles [2018]

AS I SAT SADLY BY HER SIDE

"Then she smiled and turned to me
And waited for me to reply
Her hair was falling down her shoulder
As I sat sadly by her side"

Neuer Pavillon at Schlosspark Charlottenburg, Berlin [2021]

MORE NEWS FROM NOWHERE

"Don't it make you feel alone
Don't it make you wanna get right back home
More news from nowhere
More news from nowhere
Goodbye/goodbye/goodbye"

Bauhaus Meisterhaus Moholy-Nagy, Dessau [2018]

LOOM OF THE LAND

"It was the dirty end of winter
Along the loom of the land
When I walked with sweet Sally
Hand upon hand"

on Autobahn A9 [2015]

"Sirius is eight-point-six light years away
Arcturus is thirty seven
The past is the past
And it's here to stay
Wikipedia is
Heaven"

Church St.Kontantinos + St. Helena, Chania, Crete [2019]

"And I don't believe
in the existence of angels
But looking at you
I wonder if that's true"

St. Hedwigs cemeteries, Berlin [2020]

WHERE THE WILD ROSES GROW

"On the third day
He took me to the river
He showed me the roses
And we kissed
And the last thing I heard
Was a muttered word
As he stood smiling above me
With a rock in his fist"

Vils river, Amberg i.d.Opf. [2013]

"Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, baby
Everytime you come around"

Venetian harbour, Chania, Crete [2021]
