monday,12th of may, an average day,
dull rain, feel the drain
need a plane or a train to get me far away,
somewhere like dushanbe
heading east from the caspian,
by sea, by land, tajikistan, got no reason, got no plan
a voice in the pamir's calling me, my destiny
just like a sailor so far from the sea,
I'd forgotten exactly who I claimed to be
wanted to live my life aimlessly
give up and take up a new identity
from a wireless world it’s a world away
from a lonesome world i'll fly someday
to a garden city, green and grey, i find myself in dushanbe
travelling from a distant land,
where the river meets the trees and sand
from the city to the registan of samarkand
running in circles can you show me the way
шаб и марг - شب مرگ
driving a dusty road in a rusty mercedes benz,
days would pass as i journey past,
mountains, spires, telephone wires
garden city, green and grey, i find myself in dushanbe
stars crossed in the sky to carry me here,
if they do, my heart will stay in the walls, in the trees,
in the mountains and the breeze, in the skies, in the eyes of dushanbe
