In The End 03:27
the islands are calling out your name in your dreams you’ve been a thousand times all we want is a place to be quiet i think i know just where we can hide in the end we will change but all i want right now is to go back to the way were out there it calls to be different like a child everything’s new take a break, discover each other find again whats real and whats true in the end we will change but all i want right now is to go back to the way were new dreams are floating in the ocean sometimes i see it so clear last night we spoke without speaking hearts talk when you take away fear we don’t need things or possessions they only weigh us right down love waits in so many places all we need to do is leave this town in the end we will change but all i want right now is to go back to the way were

you’re running in the dark no lights around just what you running from? are you too afraid to ask? i know when the time is right you’ll tell me where you hide i want to see it with my own eyes every crack there is a light wake up, wake up, wake up the message has arrived i know they try and keep us quiet but we’re going out of our minds we’re running around in circles and none of this seems right they’re coming from all angles like wolves chasing you at night we’ve got to make this happen the truth is worth the fight wake up, wake up, wake up the message has arrived slow down hold tight we can keep this together slow down hold tight we can keep this together we can work it out we can work it out

In the mountains high from the city We can see so far behind Those days in the middle of summer There was snow at our feet All the hours slipped by in seconds It was far but we kept going Only eagles know our direction We could follow them if we like Late at night we went driving Through the streets of our past we’d forgotten All night we went driving As the memories rose up we just kept rolling, rolling on. We'd lost control but we already knew it It felt so good, no need for words We played our favourite songs over and over Your smile it said it all We sure that nothing could go wrong And the stars were still in our eyes You know we could just stop for a minute We’re tired from all the miles Late at night we went driving Through the streets of our past we’d forgotten All night we went driving As the memories rose up we just kept rolling, rolling on. The high cold winds kept on blowing The smell of the pine trees, tobacco and gasoline Before we knew it we were under grey clouds Or above them I can't remember In the mountains high from the city We can see all the way down Those days in the middle of summer No more snow at our feet Late at night we went driving Through the streets of our past we’d forgotten All night we went driving As the memories rose up we just kept rolling, rolling on.

Oh Mountain 04:02
hear my call in the dead of night i dreamt i was flying again so high this time i took you on a ride by the lake, by a river, on a mountainside right now i need this seasons are changing right here in front of us the signs are so clear like the water was bright blooms are ripe and ahead of time sounds and silence fill all my mind right now i need this everyday for us is a brand new start times you must let go to find the light i see a picture bright and so full of life close your eyes ask yourself does it all feel right right now i need this right now i need this

patterns forming in the morning light sitting by the ocean what a beautiful sight spinning spirals like a falling star running away is only going to take you far what you need is to make a plan no better time than from where you stand try your best, its all that you can believe in your heart in your soul, in your hopes and ideas breathe and let the air come in scream and the problems they just float on out last time i saw you at the beach you told me secrets i had to keep but if you just leave them all with me you’ll never let yourself be free kindness it goes a long long way smiling to a stranger to yourself everyday hold on to hope like you can’t let go dream like that child playing down in the snow all the things in the world we want to change starts from embracing that we’re all same

I know you don't see now but you will soon when it's all gone I know you don't care now but you will soon when its all gone I know you don't worry but you will soon when you can't breathe I know you don't feel it but you will soon when it's all gone. We cannot keep going the way things are, cause it will break We cannot keep moving the way we do, cause we'll break down We cannot go forward when all they do is hold us back We cannot control this when powers lie and tear it down I hope you will remember what we have done when it's all gone I hope you see the damage, it's in your hands when it's all gone I hope we stop wasting before the lights go down when it's all gone. I hope we start listening cause we can't come back when it's all gone

The River 04:18
Get to the river Hold your breathe and dive in Float in your innocence The truth it will help you swim Get to the river Hold your breathe and dive in Move like your dancing To stop you from drowning Get to the river Hold your breathe and dive in Currents they will take you Anywhere you want to go. Float away

out in the open you cannot hide you’ve got no weapon out in the open its time to rise be your own army you’ve got nothing to lose. all we have to do is try there not gonna win all we have to do is try cause we’ve got everything to lose out in the open feels like were drowning like on the ocean out in the open we have to show them and make difference we’ve got nothing to lose out in the open we’re not alone this has to happen out in the open this is our right they’ll try to shake you they’ll try to break you they’ll come to take you but we’ve got nothing to lose

about

Nidelk explores the connection with nature and human, love, feeling alone, loss, grief, hope, focus and standing up for what you believe in.
The album name and story came from a dream. After my grandfather had passed away he came to me in a dream and kept repeating this word ‘Nidelk’ to me. I wasn’t sure what it meant so i had to look up its origin. The first thing I found was that it was a riddle. I couldn’t believe it. I unraveled the letters and found the word ‘linked’. From this i knew right away that my grandfather was sending me a message that we are both still linked, his world and mine. The more I thought of it in relation to my thoughts of spirit and nature connectivity, I was so happy he gave me insight & inspiration into exploring this universal ‘link’ in my new album. Thanks grandad.
