Grow Small 03:32
Small Words grow big when said
 in between echoes roar absorb me
 I grow small as you speak your ways lead down
 to the ground of me linger as 
I wear off I grow small as you speak once you made me lose my heavy boots now I draw a line only
 to see the edge of me
2.
Try For Me 03:48
I don’t speak their language of bodies and heat
 poems on toilet-walls 
in german words I’m seeking the right notes to follow their tunes 
let this be safe-space 
a hideaway dancing is violence – curious eyes.
 avoid looking at them – is innocence Leaving is treason –
 my hands fail to grip.
 drown in the cushions – is deliverance but they never try for me I’m haunted by laughter theirs and my own
 that tightens the hard knots between my lungs I don’t speak their language of bodies and heat 
poems on toilet-walls
 in my own words
3.
New Smile 02:58
Her smile is new 
she got it down the street where dogs and birds 
make rules
 where one can meet the tall boy called ‚the fool‘
 and nobody would 
ever stop but you you’re acting cool
 knowing the rain on your side and the rainbows too
n ot sure if
running away
 or getting close to you
 would save them
 from the darkness that will crawl up soon in shadow-lights 
a deer arrives draws the breath
 of the one that hopes still 
 pages with no words will keep us up at night listen to the silence when the storm arrives if there is a pain
 we feel it late enough and if there is a light
 I saved the good stuff

Fall Apart 03:18
Fall apart drift away from me But since I’ve left me here I will lay beside
 my Me Nothing left 
of what there was but I do not care
 There will be no one coming back for more of me
6.
Sun Come Up 04:03
Is this how we came here? cause we share the same fear and you know we stay there nowhere my dreams 
in your hands your dreams in my hands see the sun come up alone This is how we came here cause we share the same fear and you know we stay there

about

iuri Basel, Switzerland

One of the most incredible voices to come out this year, iuri describes the emotional worlds of a young generation, born into a world of growing insecurities, ambivalences and doubts, which must somehow find a foothold.
