Without blue 04:05
Without Blue The river is up there Touching the sea The wind seems easy and I'm ready Here's liftoff I'm floating towards the sun It feels kinda weird In my belly, I go on Now I'm higher Than any tree Loose my weight I'm above here Without blue

Whatever it moves (free) 03:33
Whatever it moves A gasoline haze Followed by blaze All thoughts of sin They're ready to go down Whatever it moves It's got to wait Whatever it moves I still got this need for love Aha Crackle soul, it's too hot to hold Who'll hurt ones hand, who'll hurt ones bones A crackle weep, a howling sweep Common sense I hate to search for that Itchy brain, catch that flame Douse all souls, save those bones That tickled pink, it's all over my face now Mask my dreams please all lies falling down Common sense I hate to search for that crumble, fumble I stumble my way hoping to reach you in some way Whatever it moves It's got to wait Whatever it moves I still got this need for love

Zombie trail 03:18
What if a second Was all that you had to Make my day All that you care for Put it in the grave And dig it up again What if a second Was all that you had to Make a move Do a rhumba baby Ballroom music It's in my head (The living dead) Face up high and walk straight the line Do a little hey hey watch your zombie trail Face up high And walk straight the line Do a little hey hey Watch your zombie trail You think you caught it The holy Grail What if a second Was all that you had to Make my day All that you care for Put it in the grave And dig it up again now face up high and walk straight the line Do a little hey hey watch your zombie trail Face up high And walk straight the line Do a little hey hey Watch your zombie trail You think you caught it The holy Grail

This beautiful place (free) 04:30
I'll show you This beautiful place I know Now follow me Around that corner And you will see Maybe Maybe we will kiss Maybe You will go, go with me reveal our love Hand in hand We turn and we turn We turn and we turn While we are looking down at the world upside down I hold you When you let me go When we both not know What will happen Don't let me go lone Imagine this Your soul at ease You rest We will rest in peace I'll show you This beautiful place I know Now follow me I'll show you We turn and we turn We turn and we turn While we are looking down at the world upside down I hold you

This water is the air, I wish I could live in. Together with my friends, the whale & the fish Just wonder if I ever, will breath again I don't wanna drown, before I know There was a crack and a high screeching noise. Oh yes now I remember, it all too well. Looking at that movie, a flash before my eyes. Spirit made instant. a pearl filled with time. That's my life, I'm looking at. Oh yes now I remember, it all too well And it makes me mad, for what I have left behind, there's the surface. There's water all around me, a pity that I'm human. Ropes around my ankles, weighing me down. Grab for a knife, that I can't find. Oh yes now I remember, it all too well. And it makes me mad, for what I have left behind, there's the surface.

You saw it 04:08
You saw it happen you said it before All that was scary the twist we were in I thought of dying & the things i'd missed You said it was just a tease from the wind Something wrong, what have I done all I though when we tumbled down You saw it happen you said it before Stop fooling me, I was not that wrong The end is there well you have to admit I'll give you this it's a choice for some bliss You're not that Thankful for the Moments of love When we tumbled down We were as high as a human can be that it was risky we knew

You make my day (free) 03:18
You make my day It's all that I care for No matter what You think of me You might know me As a dear friend You might know all the tricks of the trade Please wait your turn not move a muscle Please keep your voice down And save it for as long When the moon hits the earth And the earth kisses back When you think you've waited Until you're at your wit's end When the night becomes day After a too big laugh You may say whatever you want about me I'll make your day That's my job hey No matter what I might think of you I used to know you As a dear friend I used to know you as the enemy Please hold your horses your movement is not that strong Please keep your voice down And save it for as long When you think you've waited Until you're at your wit's end When the night becomes day After a too big laugh You may say whatever you want about me When the moon hits the earth And the earth kisses back When you think you've waited Until you're at your wit's end When the night becomes day After a too big laugh You may say whatever you want about me

Faded to soul (free) 04:25
I'll have to embrace It was a stitch in time I'll have to inhale it did not save nine All that I retain Your image, it complains That it's almost Lost Out of sight, out of my mind A replaceable piece in This heart I have For a life goes on Where nothing seems wrong For me or For somebody else Faded to soul That's what you are Faded to soul Between the clouds somewhere Faded to soul That's where you are Faded to soul Stupidity, that's in my mind I'll never forget And I'll never ditch Those memories I was way too young To act as I should have done Faded to soul That's what you are Faded to soul Between the clouds somewhere Faded to soul That's where you are Faded to soul

The race 04:19
I'll have to race Trespass on the case I've lost nothing yet Wonder how I do A wish for love from a fool Maybe some will be hurt I'll have to race (getting ready) Snatch the rat by the tail ( I'm not that steady ) Gonna climb that hill ( for all I want to get ) Nothing will ease my need for the rush I'm hooked on I want to get it higher than anyone has ever gone I'm on top of it all

about

There are those who claim that Erik Hofland, aka dyzack, has made a comeback. They are wrong.
After impressive performances, both in Holland and abroad, 3 studio albums, raving reviews and awards, it was time for a change. From 2005 to 2011 he was composing music for theatre, amongst others for theatre company Vis á Vis.
The reason for the appearance of his new solo album, This mangy soul, is a bizarre and recurring dream.
Dyzack is now approaching the age at which his father committed suicide.
In his dream, as with most dreams, this subject gets a surreal twist: a medical procedure raises his father from the dead.
However, confusion surmounts as he realizes nothing is what it used to be.
This mangy soul is undoubtably dyzack's most intimate record so far.
The album is a collection of songs about loss and existential fear hovering over humans.
But that fear is never the main subject: above all this album is a consolation for our mangy souls.
