BURNING BRIDGES Cast away into the cave I wasn’t blind, but I could not see oh, the travesty trapped inside of me and believe, still this is what we seek Take me back again Sensing my way through the dark Was it a sin? When did this begin? I would trade it all just to be someone somewhere else just the ordinary small time friend and through the cracks I see Aiming your steps for the dawn Tricky the ground, but keep moving on Can we gaze upon the wonders we adore? In the photograph we were still floating on With our slingshots spending hours skipping stones in the morning light Take me back again They tied you They cared for you the beggar and the greed The silence was all we knew In the cosmic masquerade With millions on the run Behind you; the perfect beast It’s calling for you now And the night sky had a fever when it soaked the moon Trapped in the heart-shaped psyche cocoon It’s taking it’s toll and stealing all the lights now In the ocean, in the ocean, and we’re older

Crystalline 07:02
CRYSTALLINE Into the light I wish it could feel right Strolling around out by the balcony Stay for a while No need to be going away Nothing but silence it’s like you were never here It’s strange when we walk where only a trail remains We hide what we see But everyone felt the same Take what you want you captured our memories Remember the laughter? I wish it could stay the same But the tears were aligned as the cancer was overthrown But where do we go from here? We sent you back with the love that you gave Now it’s over, I know In the pale city light Nothing cuts deeper The magic was spent, and nothing remains I am sober tonight and the chair and the crown; reclaimed by the reaper the thrills in the rye the breeze that we’re floating on it is hard to bear we’re walking the stairway and you’re always around And the lights that you stole and you’re never coming home what kind of reward – to be leaving as the silence fell to the floor we’re never going back it’s the payment for the reward and we’re leaving Make it stop.

Skins Pt. 1 01:18

KINGDOM OF COLOR Lost in the city You wanted to get out, but it stole from you You choke in the morning You changed into something else, but you’re trapped in a time when it felt real Now it’s out of sight The guilt and the glory Your feet dissolving the ground When you run through the night just like a thief do you still believe? The night was bright Satellite We’re floating on Marathon And stumbling on and on
5.
SKINS The changes come and they rearrange they leave you in a self-embrace in the daytime you’re a mess and you barely stand it In the night you cling on to your pills it’s a free fall it’s a restless dream it’s a thief who claims you for himself and the questionnaires and the neutral chairs and escaping am I really here there are some of us who’ll understand about the wasteland we can enter if we dare The remedy was within your reach the grass compelling and the devil speaks of a special life with a model wife what a story It’s a fallen man with a hopeless plan it’s a parody there’s no sympathy, and betraying you was the worst thing I could do And the nighttime is no friend of mine as the thoughts and fears go hand in hand and the less you look the more you see how this perfect core is what I recall tonight and it’s on and on

about

Let’s pause for a while. It’s time for a proper Thank you.

To Håkon Dalen, Ørjan Saur, Rune & Sverre Leraand for getting a band going back in 2008. For the kids in Volda for rooting for the one man band that was Soup back in 2005. To Brygga studio for the courtesy through the years, especially during the times of finishing the Bernays album. To all our families, and especially Liv Aastad for finance and continuous support, and Stein Grüber for inspirational feedback throughout the years. To Roar Johannessen and his daughter Line Ira for making connections, networking, booking and promoting, and for making friends with Hans Magnus Ryan, who in turn helped produce the e.l.b. Album, ambassadeuring Soup on through the 10’s. To Anders Langfjæran for coming on board after Håkon Dalen as our work-for-free sound engineer. Idealist and true legends -helping out with tech stuff, therapeutic stuff, live stuff, studio stuff and friend stuff. People like that are hard to come by, just like our friend/booker/manager Rob Palmen who set us up with our european live tours, and Torgeir Lund at our label who keeps on pushing our albums to people we don’t even know (ah, and Piotr at InoRock for getting a different ball rolling). To all the drummers who auditioned, came and went, or joined as temps; those snare hits were never in vain; Kim, Vomit, Pål Tore, Thomas, Oddbjørn & Sverre. To Per and the Spiders, thanks for the ride. To Paul Savage and the Remedies crew; all the kind people in Namsos (hi, Bård Ole), and in Glasgow; Emma, Ben and Chem19 - truly appreciate the inflatable mattress, the food and the friendship. To Christian Obermayer at Strype Audio for revising and mastering Soup stuff for over a decade; you’re a patient prince. To the bookers, venues and labels we’ve crossed paths with over the years; every gesture of courtesy brought value (Terry Middleton; now there’s a noble piece of humanity). To the journalists who caught on to the Soup sound early on (Catharina my love). To every helping hand at Fosen county; thanks for joining in on our vision. To Erik Paulsen, Lasse Kalevi, Kofen, Trond Morset, Terje Hallan and all our resourceful helpers; you’ve saved us more than once. To Lars Hyldmo who stepped up on short notice to customize a flight case, and to every fellow musician who stopped by to borrow or let us borrow stuff -that’s the joint spirit we’re all part of. This goes for our local community in Trondheim too, without whom we would’ve never achieved much. To Lasse Hoile, who -back in 2005 became the first official soup fan after hearing My Justine online (r.i.p. Myspace), and came along as a long term collaborator; it’s hard to know soup without knowing Lasse, and that’s the way we like it. Love u bro. To the local music store who, at least before going completely K-Mart plug-in-mp3-conversion style, was a cornerstone in the development of local talent and young bloods. To Kostas, Orcan and Burak for taking us on our MediterrAsian adventure, a trip we’ll always remember. To the loyal followers who keep informing us about Soup’s impact on their lives; kinda didn’t see that coming when first starting out. To all we might’ve forgotten; you know who you are, and you know we do too.
Thank you.

It’s been a fine ride.

// Soup
