released 01 October 2011
Gregor's Bed - “So Much Work For Love to Do—So Much Work For Me and You”. I called Cybiont’s last album, Angels & Demons, one of the most significant albums of the year. Cybiont, in an apparent act of pure spite, released an even better album this year.

Track Name: The Music gets lonely
THE MUSIC GETS LONELY

The time that got away
keep knocking on the door
as there is much more of the nothing to say

In Hiding - somewhere out there
The only thing that ever could be
oh dreams (please) grow braver on me/ grow braver on me

Moments stuck in 2 feet
to stubborn to move along
humming together in the long gone song

(This is) a story - well hidden and stored
finding comfort in the minor chord
oh please - let the music free/ oh let the music free

Ooh, It is beautiful
It was so beautiful

It is so beautiful
It was so beautiful

Poverty grows bolder – as the spirit gets cold-er
when a heart gets cryopreserved
the music is nowhere to be heard/ oh the music is nowhere to be heard

Ooh, It is beautiful
It was so beautiful

And it gets lonely
Is gets lonely
The music gets loooonely
when locked away/ oh when locked away

There is a future – praying for release
it is time to re-write and re-do
but, please don't let the ice unfreeze

And it gets lonely
It Gets lonely
The music gets lonely
if nobody listen

Ooh, If nobody listens
Track Name: Waiting for the past
WAITING FOR THE PAST

I know there is beauty all around
In hearts and eyes – love is abound

I know there are miracles everyday
But in hiding – it's hard to be found

I am patiently sitting here
(still) waiting for the time
that past - away
where are you now?
where are you - Godot?

Go well – Farewell
You moments that left
Go -o well - Farewell
I am sitting here - in memory lane
with a bouquet - of withering flowers

Some are out there ceasing the day
me? well... we all got to pay in the end

It will never end - when not let to start
But be assured it will catch up with you at last (be assured)

Join me on this wooden bench
waiting for the moments
that past away
I wonder - what you got to say
What does Godot got to say?

..Go well – Farewell
You time that left
Go well - Farewell
I am sitting here in memory lane
with your bouquet - of withering flowers
Track Name: Whau (let go)
LET GO/WHAU

I once said that we- got to hold on
but now its time to let go
While dreaming in the big sleep
the truth is creeping up from the deep

Let go before the future is gone
Only a head - can be right or wrong
There are other views across the sea
on the journey to be seen

Let go
Let go
Oh whau
Oh whau

Many Circles goes around, comes around
But a windmill will never fetch that sound
For the crazy all - is wide wide open
and the Man of La Mancha - died sane and - broken

The seasons are moving in
soon i've got nothing left to sing
It is myself – that scares me the most
after the change – will the heart still be lost?
Oh, Whau
Oh, whau

Oh, Let go (LET GO all)
All - is already gone
Time to compose
a new song

Oh whau
Oh whau

Give room
Give room
for the new tree
along the river of death
Track Name: So much work for love
THERE IS SO MUCH WORK FOR LOVE

See that fly sitting there on the wall
searching for what we call the human soul
Even in hiding you can't avoid to see
That you are everything you wanted to be

There is so much work for love to do
There is so much work for love to do
(There is) so much work for love (to do)
and it starts with me and you

I see loneliness in your eyes
I see longing in so many hearts
I see poverty inside of minds
oh how having it all – can make you blind

The world is waiting for you
You've got so much go-od - you can do

A heart was broken and so was the egg
and what loves our company is sorrow
But no reason to cry for spilled milk
there is plenty more to spill tomorrow

There is so much work for love to do
There is so much work for love to do
(There is) so much work for love (to do)
and it starts with me and you

I feel longing from deep in your palms
I feel beaming straight out of your head
I see the light -heading towards your heart
oh how beauty of all – can make you cry

The world is waiting for you
You've got so much good – you can do

There is so much work for love to do
so much work for love
There is so much work – for me and you
Track Name: Work it out
Work it out!

You got work it
work it out
you got to
work it out

You got work it – my friend
you got work
you got to
work that heart

You got to move
move to the beat
there is plenty
of soul food to eat

You got a future
to embrace
and happiness
to face

Let your mind open- let go
Let your body be one with this flow

Let your energy free – let free
and become all that you can be

You got the power
power it up
You are the change
that wanna come out

Now you can feel it
happening to you
When Your feet start
tapping that tune



You got to live it
your life
you got
live it out right now

You are the one
revolutionary
brave enough
to be happy

Let your mind open- let go
Let you body be one with this flow

Let your energy free – let free
and become all that you can be
Track Name: Love fix
LOVE FIX

Life is journey playing many tricks
but nothing so bad that love can't fix

It is to cold out there
I thought you said that the world was getting warmer?

Life is journey playing many tricks
but nothing so bad that love can't fix

Life is journey playing many tricks
but nothing so bad that love can't fix

Do you wanna be my love fix?

Love fix

Love is a journey playing many tricks
but nothing so bad – that life cant fix

It can show you how to get from here
to the rest of the world

Love is a journey playing many tricks
but nothing so bad – that life cant fix

Do you wan't my love fix?

Love fix
Track Name: The One
Are you?
the One
Are you?
the One

Are you?
are you - the One?
Are you?
Are you One?

Are you?
Are you One?

Are we?
Are we - One?
Track Name: Song of Sorrow
SONG OF SORROW

Go away
Leave all alone
with the peace
of not feeling

You, go away
Please, keep that love at bay/astray
Leave my heart alone
in this sorrow song

This is a song of sorrow
This is a song - about all that is gone

Go away
I pray
Go away
I pray
Go away
I pray
But I want you to stay!
Please stay
please stay
and
go away
go away
go away
go to stay

This is a song of sorrow
This is my song - About all that is to come

Please come
Track Name: Tale of the Un-born child
THE TALE OF THE UNBORN CHILD

One + two
multiplying to become me and you
longing for the living
and for a father to tie that shoe

There is a child within
an aging being's little twin
longing for the loving
with tales of where we both've been (loving the sin)

Sight growing to see the day
eagerly, readily – to come out and play
It is a game of hide a seek
i'm the one hiding in the courage of the weak

Oh you unborn child
Is this really to be the time?
Oh you unborn child
the choice is yours – to be the one

One and two
Inside of me and another in you
Rapidly outgrowing our size
leaving love with so much more to do

Its Me and you, child
Both longing living love-wild
to free, release and raise above fears,
residing in grown up years

We got the whole wide world to win
Two children – together – one unborn twin
Please forgive me from deep within/therein
As I am praying – be gone with the wind

Oh you unborn child
This might not be our time
Oh you unborn child
the choice is yours – to become

Oh you unborn child
This is not to be our time
Oh you unborn child
don't leave the choice to be mine
Track Name: Never stops
NEVER STOPS

A million words
and a billion thoughts
trillions of impressions
still there is no sight - of a submission

A mind
got the ability
to make 1+1 equal 917
-finding doubt in truths - that always have been

My mind
Never stops
Never stops to mind

A million feelings
and a billion tears
infinite passions
-that can not - settle for less then more

My heart
is tainted with
that loving compassion
and refuses to - stop believing
that we are - collective beings

My heart
Never stops
Never stops to beat
my heart never stops, never stops
my mind never stops, never stops
never stops, never stops to beat








Trillions of cells
in endless synapses
5 litres of blood
feeding the dreams keep feeding those dreams

Endless threats
imprisoned spirits
will never never stop
us to nurture – the collective consciousness the collective consciousness

My being
Never stops
Never stops being

My heart
my mind
my being

until the day
it does
stop
Track Name: 299 792 458 m / s
299 792 458 m / s

We are on a journey
a ticking vibration from A – Z
Searching for what can't meet the eyes
As the beauty in yours - when they met

As the tongue gets caught by the past
The beat runs ahead as a wild, wild horse
synchronizing that collective thought
letting love taking its course

Let it free to fly
299,792,458

Let the light fly
299,792,458 m / s

We are on a mission
to feel each single little beat
and reset the time that got away
as I loved it all - but cannot stay

Cause I got to catch that light
to ride me into that deep deep space
meeting what makes all tick
moments end far to quick

Let it free to fly
299,792,458

Let the light fly
299,792,458 m / s
Track Name: The Other side
THE OTHER SIDE

On the other side
On the other side
On the other side
(whats there?)

When green turns
into black like coal
and you got a 2nd
mortgage on your soul

What's right it's wrong
Listen to the love song
from there beyond

Other side...

Heads to big
make hearts to small
forgetting your ass
being part of it all

What is up it is down
And God is a clown
so come on over – come over
come over to here - beyond

To the other side
To the other side
meet me
over on the other side

We are
On the other side
On the other side
we are
the other side
Track Name: The Enemy
THE ENEMY

You can run a way
or get down on your knees and pray
You can close your eyes not to see
and fit into the box where you are told to be
But you can never - never, never, never
run away from yourself

You can bury it all
in a deep black hole
or walking wandering the earth
straight through your soles
straight into your soul
But you can never, never, never, never, never
walk away from yourself

You can hide in the past
or flee into the future – floating around in space at last
You can strike - down on reality in anger
But still it is your own heart screaming out in fear
cause you can never, never, never, never
hide away from yourself

Who is the enemy?
Not letting happiness to be free
I am I am

You can fight a war
or un-discover who really are
(You can) blame magnetism and gravity
and hit your head hard – to become a little pea
But you can never, never never, never
stop - being you

You can travel inside
and pay yourself a bribe
letting questions fade into answers
forgetting those dreams
forgetting those screams
but you can never, never, never, never,
escape who you are

You can damn the living
and escape into death – liberate your heart from feeling
But a fool can never – never let go
of the idealistic heart –
as it slowly dies - You fade away -
and the planet cries
That you will never, never, never, never
be alone with yourself

Who is the enemy?
Not letting happiness to be free
I am I am

you can never
run away
never, never, never, never
walk away

you can never,
hide away
from yourself

you will never, never never, never
stop - being you

you can never, never, never, never
escape who you are

you can never, never, never, never
not be

Who is the enemy?
Not letting happiness to be free
I am we are
Track Name: A Song
A song is coming up

A song is waiting
but I can not play
the piano
in this late night – in this late...
in this late li-fe

A song is coming
like a child playing
with those
uncatchable butterflies
butterflying

A shy little song
only for the cosmos
where it is written
for those feeling
the sounds
and words
unspoken

it is written

It will then rest
remaining there
It will then rest
remaining there
inbetween the stars and thoughts
the stars and thoughts

like a tiny little vibration
traveling beyond the end of time
and unreachable by the ears

This is your song
That is my song
Track Name: In the End
IN THE END

We've been fighting for justice
we've been fighting for peace
with minds and hearts – together
goodness grew braver

We've been living for beauty
(we've) been sharing in love
lightness light as a feather
as our sun changed the weather

But...In the end
In the end
(At the end of the rope)
we are – all alone

We've made dreams come through
and kept the nightmares away
We've looked into the sun
and became of which others prayed

We've been breaking the waves
been chasing white clouds
the windmills we took on
but in the end – Don Quixote is still alone

In the end
In the end
(At the end of the rope)
we are all alone

Oh you urgent compassion
a reality never to be allowed
Embrace your loneliness
the collective soul can never be

Cause
In the End
In the End
At the end of the rope
we are - still alone
with ourselves
Track Name: Homo Symbioticus
Every pea is part of its pod
every tree is bound to its ground
and stars never part from the sky
as every part of your heart - belongs to a cell – belongs to a cell

Everything has to do with everything
Everything has to do with everything
Everything is everything – and has to do – with everybody

Feel the web of life
in its non-linear dance
embrace this new breed – breathing inside

Homo symbioticus - Homo symbioticus

Every tear is part of the seas
as fear can make you feel love
Every thought inside your mind
is part of the atmosphere – the atmosphere – the atmosphere we create (and breath)

Everything has to do with everything
some melodies can make the heart sing
Everything is everything – and has to do - with everybody

Everything has to do with everything
Everything has to do with everything
Everything is everything – and has to do – with you

Feel the web of life
in its non-linear dance
embrace this new breed – breathing inside

Homo symbioticus - Homo symbioticus
