about

Written in 2012 and originally released in 2014 as the opening track of "Mental Tea", "Girls of Prague" was originally born as the author's answer to a friend's tune talking of birds, beer and the autumn atmosphere in the Czech capital, then transposed into a deep reflection of the Bohemian beauties passing by while staring on a park with a guitar and little more.

lyrics

Girls of Prague they look so nice
in their autumn silhouette
while bridges burn with morning cries
and leaves are covering their spice
and there is a land of plenty here
where cinnamon covers my scars
where silence is another fear
that I struggle to keep afar

Girls of Prague their eyes just laugh
if you dare to spend one sight
in their unreachable white skin
there's a sea of beauty where to swim
and some might even stop by
as I'm playing my usual song
lost in a lonesome empty park
while the evening meets the sun.

And my destiny will take its road
and I'll have to pay the toll
while girls of Prague will see
I'm just made of chocolate
about to melt down with the light
waiting for another day to come
as long as I will stare right here
singing lullabies from hell.

And there is nothing left to see
And there is nothing left to sing
except the unreachable beauty
of the girls of Prague
