When you turn around
You see the shadow of my doubts
That follows you
Wherever you go
To make sense of this world
I collect narratives
People tell me their stories
I turn them into music, dreams,... poetry
But there is one tale
I have never heard before
That I want to know more than anything
The one I am most of all afraid of
It’s the story how you became you
that steals your sleep like a slick thief
concealed by the tears on the pillow
that you turn around before I would notice
We are in this together
Two hearts that beat like one
An open book for those
who are able to read between the lines
But there is this one page
I'm inept to decrypt
that makes no sense without context
the key to interpret your story
It’s the story
that shaped and shook your world
that makes you whine
like a hurt wolf
Your eyes' silent scream
before you close them
Every kiss...
an inaudible sigh
As I re-tell my stories
I give them warmth and glory
Now I am telling yours
Maybe one day you will read mine
Our stories are like daisies
which appealed on the field
moved with the wind
Plucked, dried, flattened
forgotten in a book
you never read
to remind you of a moment
which chained you from within

1000 Nights

You look tired
Don't give in
just close your eyes
enter my fantasy
time is running out
No chance to deceive me
I'll give you one more night
Tell me of lands far away
tell me of good old days
tell me everything you know
All these tales
intervene with my memories
deep down inside
to elude this cruel world
mesmerise me
just one more night
Wait until the 1001st night
Tell me of love and devotion
tell me who you are
I want to understand
I want to know
what made you
the greatest storyteller
of all time

Missing Pieces
03:19
|
|||
So young, and almost reckless
You caught my eye
I got to taste
The bitter taste
Of eternity
The wounds were wrought
It is the songs that remain
The fog in my head
Prevents me
From stealing the sun
From falling again
Shattered memories
Tell me
Tell me!
A broken heart can't be broken
Vigorously was broken
what had to be broken
only to be reassembled
through the years
with tears
some pieces went missing
replaced by wishes, hope, and fear
The wish - to go on
The hope - that it lasts
The fear - that it won't

In silence we played
afraid of gazing eyes
we dragged your dream outside
to hide inside
Was I supposed to run away
or should I have followed you?
It appears that it won't go away
So don't stay in our way
When we are together in this
Unstoppable, unbreakable
Why hesitate to drink with us
from the cup of life?
How long will it take
till you realise
that it was empty
the drink in it a dream
and it wasn't yours?

Reality
Reality
Too much inside of me
Much too much
Too many thoughts in me
Vertigo
Too much outside of me
Much too much
Too much
Blackout
Vertigo
Together apart
Ice-blue eyes
Set on fire
Thunderbolt
No cure at hand
But free at last
Didn't you say:
please keep me warm?
The torch I came with set our hearts aflame
Waiting for the rush ahead
Half alive, and half sad
Reality
Reality
Too much inside of me
Much too much
Too many thoughts in me
Vertigo
Too much outside of me
Much too much
Too much
Back up!
Nausea
Fallen apart
A bird in flames
Scorched wings
Frozen cold
No dream at hand
Found and lost

Heart-Beat Me
03:38
|
|||
Eyes
Drill right into one's heart
Lips
To seal unbroken words
Years have passed
Wasted acting
Maybe you'll find the time
to heart-beat me
half a stranger
heart-beat me
before I'm gone
Move on!
Come!
Head on!
Have I been mistaken?
I hoped that I'm your sinner
Lure me out, into the sun
Bear in mind, I won't wait forever...
Years have passed
Ruled by envy
Never seemed to find myself
Lost in a rhythm
of your heart-beat
Lost in the rhythm
of your heart-beat
Lost in the rhythm...
Lost in the rhythm...
of your heart-beat
Heart-beat (hurt me)
Forget the past
I am none the wiser
All I ever wanted
Was to fall asleep
To your heartbeat
Love is desire
Love is Greek Fire
Let me die
for one second

If you wash out with the tide
that's all right
maybe then
you'll never be alone
Forsaken thoughts
abandoned beliefs
when the system collapses
you'll see what you've had
For the first time
I feel this is something real
Please show me that you are not
a slave to your own story
You're gonna tell it
you're gonna tell it all
You are going to judge me
I wonder what
you'd have done in my place
Watch out from above
hit the thoughts, to push you
to find
what you were looking for so badly
But beware – be aware
that what is suggested
is no longer
the best choice to opt for

The End of Everything
03:12
|

Look above in the sky wide and clear
you have fallen for the sunrise
Oh you! who has the burden to keep
try not to intervene in the cycle
Your word in honour
your world in order
They say you are the way
You are the ashes of everything
Brace yourself
Rise and shine
Bring down the stars for me
Oh you!
poisoner of hearts
polluter of the mind
Mark my futile words
You are the apogee
You are the empathy
you are the apology
You are the end
the end of everything
