After the War After the war You went away I never left your side I just lost my way I'm feeling weak My head is light The Creole band Plays through the night We try to learn We never change You and me We're still the same You're always there Through all my thoughts The night is dark Our time is short I can't explain Why I stayed so long You're all I know All I ever want We try to learn We never change You and me We're still the same The colour drains Rain falls from the sky My leather coat Keeps me dry You start to speak And then you pause I have my price And you have yours We try to learn We never change You and me We're still the same I can't escape From my past The last is first And the first is last Under the waves No sound at all The world is big We are so small We try to learn We never change You and me We're still the same - Konrad Lenz

What is Left 03:35
What is Left Went to the city Going Uptown Gonna lay me my burden down Done some things I still regret This world may be folding But it ain't ended yet Feeling so lonesome Can't even cry Had it coming like an Eye for an eye Hand me my Martin I'm stepping right back Feeling funny my mind The sky's turned to black Leaving this city Leaving this town I got me a woman Who's jailhouse bound All that I've been through Pleasures I've known Nobody's business But my own I'll cry for you You done me wrong This life that we lead It's all ended wrong Hard to see clearly So hard to connect What exactly has gone And what is still left River Jordan Cold and wide When this night it has ended You'll be there by my side River Jordan Chilly and cold Freezes the body Cuts deep through the soul I've been a rake And a rambling boy Many a city Did I enjoy I've done some things I still regret This world may be folding But it ain't ended yet Hard to see clearly So hard to connect What exactly has gone And what is still left - Konrad Lenz

Siamese Twin Two in one She's my girl Siamese twin On the Tilt-A-Whirl She's got two bodies She's got two minds She's joined in the middle She's one of a kind She's double the trouble She gives double the lip But in our twin bed We are joined at the hip Two in one She's my girl Siamese twin On the Tilt-A-Whirl Two in one She's my girl Siamese twin On the Tilt-A-Whirl When she leaves me It breaks me in two But she always returns And I'm as good as new One side's happy One side's sad One side is good The other is completely mad Siamese twin She's my girl Siamese twin On the Tilt-A-Whirl Siamese twin She's my girl Siamese twin On the Tilt-A-Whirl Siamese twin On the Tilt-A-Whirl - Konrad Lenz

Night Moves 02:33
Night Moves There's no window in these walls Your new man looks just like me I don't recognize myself I left you too easily You wait behind a killer's smile I never thought I'd be coming back Your child is bundled in your arms And you are everything I lack I guess that people never change I was scared it would come to this You play the banjo in the rain And it fills this emptiness - Konrad Lenz

Renfield Follows the Swarm of Bees Shadows cross the barren fields Renfield follows the swarm of bees His deadpan face stares up at the sky The angry mob has got him on his knees He is held in the hospital He eats the insects and the birds He writes in blood upon the walls But only he can read his words If I could just start from scratch If only I could start again I could have been someone Instead of what I became Instead of what I became Seward watches through the observation trap He notes the smile on Renfield's face He records his thoughts on a phonograph His patient is not a text book case The Demeter moves across the waves In the night plague takes all her crew A big black dog leaps to the shore Renfield knows his days of confinement are through If I could just start from scratch If only I could start again I could have been someone Instead of what I became Instead of what I became - Konrad Lenz

about

This album lies somewhere between folk and electronic, probably more towards the folk end. There are a couple of songs written by my friends Tom Woodward and Sam Johnstone. There's several I wrote including a song about Renfield from Bram Stoker's Dracula and a song about a Siamese twin girlfriend. Then there are instrumentals I made to use in the soundtracks of short films of mine including a couple of collaborations with my friend Emma Kelly. I like this record a lot, I hope you do too. Cheers - Konrad Lenz.
