“When we are away, we can and do learn new words, new concepts,
new angles. We encounter new authors who spark moments of revelation. But
feminist theory does not start there. Feminist theory might even be what gets
you there.
Within the academy, the word theory has a lot of capital. I have always been
interested in how the word theory itself is distributed; how some materials are
understood as theory and not others.”
(Sara Ahmed, Living a Feminist Life, Duke University Press, 2017, p.8)
You’re free today

And you don’t shake hands
if the hands are not just right

Beat Again
04:51
|

Let’s do it again
Who told you
A heart is made of glass
Everyone hurts
I’ll look for your wounds and heal them
If your heart’s longing
We’ll surely be able to feed it
All up
with what it needs to go on beating
And make it
Beat again, beat again
„I lost all my tendency to care“
Beat again, beat again
Don’t be so scared
Didn’t you know
A heart is endless
Skip through your archive
See how you made it
Ever once more
You gathered up feeling
You jumped as easy
As if it was spring.
A heart made of glass
A picture malicious
And out of meaning.
We gotta make it beat deeper
Beat again, beat again
Beat again, beat again.
Beat again, beat again.
Beat again, beat again.
I hear it calling, make it beat.
„I lost all my tendency to care!“
Beat again, beat again.
„I’m fighting, surviving“
Beat again, beat again.
„I lost all my tendency to share!“
Beat! Beat again, beat again.
„Fighting, surviving all the time
Pretended nobody was theeeere
Uuuhhg surrender
Ahhhh“

Time is a screw
i guess i spent some time with you
kept chasing moments
spent moments chasing you
rain never fell so fast
never felt this way
at the grocery store
at night
kottbusser tor
Oh my love, oh my love
If living was that easy
why wouldn’t it be easy with me
(you will know when you have to go,
you will know when you have to go!)
You don’t have to change it for me
What you are is what it’s about!
(you will know when you have to go,
you will know when you have to go!)
Given there’s an answer
would you give this answer to me?
(you will know when you have to go,
you will know when you have to go!)
oh my love, oh my love
oh my love, oh my love

Stille

Hörst du mich noch
Ich bin da
Wo wir ganz verloren waren
Wo du gesagt hast,
dass Wörter keinen Sinn mehr haben.
Brauchst du was,
kann ich das
für dich holen
Bring ich dir gern
Dafür musst du mit mir reden
Da wo du bist ist
Stille, Stille, Stille
Wie frisch gefallener Schnee
Wie neues Land
Wie der erste Tag
Im neuen Jahr
Da wo du bist ist
Stille Stille Stille
Wie ein Heiligtum
Ein Drumherum
Das keiner versteht
Aber jeder fühlt
Ich verlier mich
So wie du dich
Doch ich mich schlimmer
Verlier mich in dir
Die Du doch schon immer
So unmöglich warst
Kommst du mir mir raus
Gehen wir aus
Zeigst du dein Gesicht
Es macht mich glücklich
Es zu sehen
Du musst nicht reden
Einfach nur aufstehen
Da wo du bist ist
Stille, Stille, Stille
Wie frisch gefallener Schnee
Wie neues Land
Wie der erste Tag
Im neuen Jahr
Da wo du bist ist
Stille Stille Stille
Wie ein Heiligtum
Ein Drumherum
Das keiner versteht
Aber jeder fühlt

Bags of frozen peas
That's my kind of treatment
Can we meet at the public toilet?
I’m with the big black dog
Should i throw away your ham, my dear?
OK - is your hat ready?
I got some confidential
Insider information
It is not out yet
You are like an exotic
Deep water fish
All light is too much
Sun! No jacket! What is this!
I planted a plant
and some funky flowers
Sauna it is
Everyone is blond
Seven blonde girls
Oooh how i would
Love to have lasagne
Not in my hair though
Not in my hair though
You are like an exotic
Deep water fish
All light is too much
Too much
Team salmiakki
(No, salty and strong)
Strong and sunburn deluxe
A moose broke into a bank in Töölö
And it died
On top of a church
By police brutality
Quite poetic
(Quiet poetic)
Tampere south
(Team Salmiakki)
Yeah
Don’t touch my Nokia
(Team Salmiakki)
Helsinki Beach (Yeah)
You are like an exotic
Deep water fish
All light is too much
Too much

Oh my lover doesn’t know me
and the way he’s loved by me
He learned what’s north when we met..
but never met my continent!
Come to my garden of senses
be one with what you fear and what you miss
See what a graceful thing it is
To be at the mercy of your feelings
I told him baby move with me
I told him to be soft and benign
I told him, it is so easy:
It will hurt so good, you’ll love to cryyyy
Ohhhh
Oh my lover doesn’t know me
He never talks to me
I can’t shake off the impression
that I’m just too much for him
I feel alone in the desert
will he bring rain to the desert?!
get close in touch in the desert?!
It would be so much better!
I asked him to be vulnerable
I begged him to take time and be slow
I asked him to be needy
I felt attracted when he showed some feeling
Yeah, oh my god yes!
Ohhhhh
Is this a bad feeling?!
Now we’re crying again!
In the studio!
And we’re crying in the park!
In the metro, on the metro station!
Oh good lord here we’re crying again
by the freezer,
in the super market
and at the post office!

Roller Coaster
04:46

If I don’t do what I say
Does that mean that I’m crazy
(No!!!)
Just one step after the other
They don’t know that I’m in another
Time – space – reality
No grace appears to me
I’m on a rollercoaster
Blasting through
Get chased by hundred hounds
Trying to talk to you
(Rollercoaster)
If I never come on time
Does that mean I’m not benign
(No!!!)
Love you all to full exhaustion
Give my time – space with no caution
I need to
Find – pace – reality
No grace appears to me
I’m on a rollercoaster
Blasting through
Get stung by swarms of bees
Trying to listen to you.
(Rollercoaster)
I think I’ve come to a conclusion
All I need is a good fusion
(Yeah!!!)
You could be my petit bourgeois
Pushing through while I’m on your sofa
Trying – cre – ativity
No rules apply for me
I’m on a rollercoaster
Burning through
I’d like to cool it down
To have more of us two.
(Rollercoaster, rollercoaster, uuuuh.)
You could be my petit bourgeois
Being steady when I am just trying
Be my loyal telescope brother
Pushing through in even lines.
Live’s a rollercoaster
rollercoaster
rollercoaster
