Lyrics:
I sleep in the mouth
of some kind of creature of our time
and wild as it goes
I give up my body
and hereʼs my mind
to love and beyond
to love and to tumble in its light
like a dream engineer
I built like a fool, now live like one
and I just spoke of engines of some lost forever
of lonesome fears
the feeling of one
ending up to find
Iʼm just some blind believer
you spelling out
Iʼm not the one
Iʼm just a little unprepared
the end has just begun
but then empty I find
Iʼm suddenly open to the land
and reckless it grows
so bring me some reckless times again
where I can speak of engines of some lost forever
of lonesome fears
the feeling of one
just to end up feeling like
some blind believer
you calling out
Iʼm not the one
I was a little unprepared
but time has just begun
what if nature is just numbers
you and I repetition
are we free or just brought out again?
I will get through these days
give me the spring and some summer
but then, do you think of me?
thatʼs me in your sight
I go through the motions of some life
itʼs wild, yes I know
I carry my body
sing some lines
so I can be the ghost of some now lost forever
of lonesome fears
the feeling of one
ending up to find weʼre just
some wild beginners
just trying out
am I the one?
I guess for some things we prepared
but the rest has just begun
what if nature is just numbers
you and I repetition
are we free or just brought out again
I will get through these days
give me the spring and some summer
and then, will I still think of you,
all the time?

I genuinely feel closer to him than any other artist I listen to. These little videos are so intimate and humanizing. It’s easy to see artist as the elevated figures in society but I love how relatable he is.
"What if natures just numbers, you and I repetition" 11/10
“I was a little unprepared
but time has just begun”
The perfect way to start today.
Mr. Matsson, we love you.
Honestly, such real love.
so much love
true deep love
I like how he said the guitar-tuning, since that's the top comment half the time.
There are days that I look back to the day I saw you live for the first time, and how afterwards, there I was, giddy like a child with cotton candy, waiting for you to appear from backstage to meet with your fans. You were jet-lagged having flown in from Sweden to Singapore and it was evident from your eyes when you finally came out just as dusk was taking over the weather. There were others in front of me, and they got your attention first. They got your "How are you?'s before me and I didn't mind it because from countless videos, to mere metres away on the stage, to finally in person. You were real, and still very is. I prepared mental notes on what to tell you in the brief moment if I were to meet you, but they all went away. And all I could say was something typical and unforgettable to the least. But then, you wished me all the best, in my musical career as a singer-songwriter from Malaysia. And, that gave me courage and led me to finally finishing a record. And that has kept me jumping over amps over and over again. Hope to catch you again soon around Asia or just anywhere really. Perhaps soon.
Hi Wan! Wow, you're a good writer! Did you post your song on RUclips? If you did you should click on edit (the three dots upper right) and add a link to your song! I'd love to hear it!
I cannot begin to explain how your music makes me feel.. it is beyond words.
Stay Strong, Stay Calm, Stay Free 🇨🇦
For just one guy playing he manages to generate a satisfyingly full sound. I really like it.
I love the stories you're sharing before you sing the songs. They make me feel like we're friends! I would love to see more of your videos ;)
quizás sea, cómo siempre, la situación personal de cada uno.. en este momento, para mí.. esta canción es medicina para mí corazón.. me alivia escuchar y emocionarme, llorar y drenar el alma.. gracias por eso, por canalizar tan bonito, y compartirlo para que podamos reflejamos a traves de la musica.. creo que al final se trata de eso, del arte de poner en música y letra lo que sentimos, y que aquellos que sientan igual, encuentren refugio en bellas canciones cómo esta. gracias ✨
I love your video style. Even the color grading is just beautiful. I also love the open and honest way you talk to the camera, and, of course, the music. I've turned to your music for joy and comfort for many years now.
I honestly have found such joy learning his music. It's a shame some people may not ever get the gift to hear his music.
@@josephsmedley4603 I hope you don't mind, I checked out your RUclips channel. I really like your cover of "Somewhere in the Mountains". You have a nice voice.
@@carolyndnc thank you so much! Means a lot to me
Beautiful song
A true poet....a true angel!
Also, thank you Kristian, for articulating so wholely feelings I never quite could. You're a not just a musician, but a magician, and I pray one day that you visit Newcastle in England and play The Sage, Gateshead. I watched you in Manchester in one cold October and it'll stay with me forever - a very long time. Never stop doing what you do. Peace and love man.
Thank you for the reminder that there is a lot of beauty just waiting to be seen.
2017-2018 TTMOE is blowing me away by way of his little pieces of melody. These episodes now have me so stuck on certain lines and I think it’s because pieces of melodies fit perfectly both with the vowel sounds and with the chord changes. E.g. this song’s “what if nature is just numbers”; Fly in Numbers : “the country bird where kingdom rise”; Same Ghost: “deep in the lines of our summer”, etc. My day (and the next day) just totally changes from these little moments that I end up scrolling back and playing over and over again. I mean, really it’s always been this way for me with TTMOE but it’s like these moments are really clicking since these recent projects started.
Wow, he's like the Bob Ross of music.
so goddamn wholesome
nah bob ross of music would be like cat stevens or something. this is on another plateau
spot on, spot on
These videos are as beautiful as the songs themselves. Thank you :)
P.S. The best comment sections on youtube are on these videos.
This song made me cry! It was a great story!
The heavy sigh after the song was everything. I felt that emotion man!
Keep coming back to this version of the song from time to time. It is great, i like it more than the album version, I see lots of passion in what you do my friend. Thank you.
If I hadn't known you beforehand I would have never expected a performance like that to follow the introduction. Love the track man.
It’s blazing hot where I live, the most devastating time of the year- this was a much needed breeze.
I will be listening to this song on my way to the lake this evening for some fly fishing!!! Great tune!!!!!
Days with new The Tallest Man on Earth releases are the best of days.
This song is magically beautiful.
It has the same vibe as Darkness of the Dream, I love it!
These vids are so beautiful, open, honest, touching, and a big inspiration for my own songwriting. Thank you.
Golly gosh a beautiful background to a wounderful heartfelt song. Got to say this series personally helps so much keeps me inspired to go on and de-confuse life and gold.
After the phone call from the doc yesterday speechless as a mother it helps me to see and hear story's through time and song at least my children are not alone look after yourself and one day I really need to vist Sweden 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈😁
How to turn darkness into light is one of great challenges of songwriting and life. You do a pretty good job of it!
Thank you Kristian.
Forever isn't a very long time listening to you. What an angel.
Love it! Instant favorite
This is one of the most beautiful songs in the world ❤️ Världen hade varit lite gråare utan dig Kristian!
Thank you for these intimate videos you've been sharing lately.
Lovely work! Thank you!
I really needed that right now. Thank you Kristian.

Masterful.
It's almost winter in Brazil. But anyhow some heat of your music and your stories reaches below the equator.
Thank you, once again, for this.
*Sorry for the bad english...
A cada canção ele nos encanta ainda mais!
Your English was literally perfect
Always great to hear what you're up to there!
Another lovely video.
Thank you so much Kristian Matsson, you can not imagine how much solace I find in your songs.
Great video. Thank you for sharing.

Wow! This sounds absolutely amazing.. Vocal and acoustic guitar! It's so soothing and beautiful! I wish there was more tickets for the show in Copenhagen :-( :-(
So talented!! Found a true gem!

Yesssss nice way to start the day! Greetings from Holland. Can't wait to see you in October.

Overwhelming as always. Summer is indeed here.
Seeing you in Ft. Collins CO was truly awesome.

Your music is honestly perfection, there is not a single song of yours that I dislike! You have perfected music, amazing!
This sounds like old school TTMOE. Absolutely love it! Tack Kristian!
You made something very beautiful, special, and I thank you for that
I love this. And btw, the background music in the beginning is fantastic and very relaxing. I wish you made a whole EP with something like that.
Poetic video, wonderful visuals, beautiful song. You are unique.

Thanks Kristian.
What a cool guy.
Struggling but this really helped me so deep inspiring Ty❤❤🎊🎈⌛
trop classe cette chanson !
Clever editing there at 07:26, there's no hint in the audio of a new take. Was it in reference to the lyrics talking about "repetition" or am I overthinking? :)
thank you
Easily my favorite from When the Bird Sees the Solid Ground.
bravo bravoo
💙💙💙
🖤🖤🖤
Kristian + 12 String = Goosebumps
This is beautiful, passionate, and evocative. I wish I could find the lyrics. Blessings!
Noel Cielo In the description.
I love u, Matsson.

Fuck... I love this man.

Loving it all Kristian! Any chance you could share a few of the poets you’re reading these days?
Fin bit. Hälsningar från Leksand.
We love ya too Kristian :)
The dialogue makes it seem like this video was recorded yesterday.
We love you too Kristian
I wish I could be right here too.
are we gonna talk about his biceps? (great music btw)
Beautiful! I am wondering which guitar is being played. Hopefully someone can help me with this question.
Very goddamn good like always, but I was also wondering what kind of camera do you record with and how do you do your filters (i'm assuming it's filtered) ?
Well, Guess I'm moving to Some Wasteland.
