Starless
04:51
|

Sundown dazzling day
Gold through my eyes
But my eyes turned within
Only see
Starless and bible black
Old friend charity
Cruel twisted smile
And the smile signals emptiness
For me
Starless and bible black
Ice blue silver sky
Fades into grey
To a grey hope that oh yearns
To be
Starless and bible black
Sundown dazzling day
Gold through my eyes
But my eyes turned within
Only see
Starless and bible black
Old friend charity
Cruel twisted smile
And the smile signals emptiness
For me
Starless and bible black

Kiss And Fly
04:33
|

Kiss and feel to skydive
Kiss and fly the whole night
Kiss and climb the high wall
Kiss and find the right path
Don’t stay out there, come to this side
Walk in the shadow
Stay far from daylight
Kiss and feel to skydive
Kiss and fly the whole night
Long thin blades, long hair smoking girl
Wind chimes are calling a fine mist is spreading
Don’t lie, don’t cry
Now put your hands on my face
Kiss and feel to skydive
Kiss and fly the whole night
Walk in the shadow
Stay far from daylight
Don’t lie, don’t cry
Now put your hands on my face
Kiss and feel to skydive
Kiss and fly the whole night

God Bless Amerika
04:10
|

Let me cry, let me lie
Moving through harbour dock
Sail on sea, sail away I just know I’m alone
Dreaming of a silver sea
Leading to the land that everyone dreams of
God bless Amerika
Where your dreams and hopes come true
Like a bright light
New world seems to welcome you or not, who knows?
Sail on sea, sail away
I just know it’s not for me
Good bye Amerika
Now I’ve seen where dreams are thrown away
Like a lighthouse
The old world seems to welcome me back home again
Sail on sea, sail away
Now I know where to stay

The Mountain Of Salt
04:21
|

Nothing now but cages and fences
Freedom edged with rust
Left my smile somewhere on the journey
Merrily kicking skulls and bones
Love left lonely on this planet
Death came and ordered me to live
Don’t say words you might regret and don’t stay here to waste your time
Left my hope somewhere in the journey kicking life and time
Now take me home
through your secret crossings
How far away
is the world of tiny people
I swim on a mountain of salt
My skin is rubbed by the salt
Now we go in a new world of truth
Nothing now but pure air and wide spaces freedom edged with white
Left my thoughts somewhere in the journey
merrily kicking leaves and ticks
Love left lonely on this planet
Death came and ordered me to live
Don’t say words you might regret and don’t stay here to waste your time
Don’t go, now we fly

We Can't Go Home
05:31

So what should be said of a life that leaves open and close, showing the hills and mounts of love
That night I fell asleep
That night I dreamed of you and me
No, we can’t go home tonight and...
Now that you’re back all the stars lit up
Pull the sky down
Now it’s alright
I can say it’s alright for me
It’s been a long road
It’s been a million miles away or just ten miles
It doesn’t matter where you are or where you go tonight
Now we’re falling the sky is falling just around here
So what should be said of a life that leaves open and close, with every beat
Now that you’re back all the stars lit up
Pull the sky down
Now it’s alright
I can say, it’s alright for me

Footprints In The Heart
04:24
|

Hey doll, don’t cry
Take care of you
Let me see once again now
How you’ll upset my life
Let’s do what’s right to do now
Go on, without look back
You go over and under
Wind blows, drying your tears
I’ll follow your footprints in my heart
You’re among the ruins of my bleeding soul
Down through the center of me, in a breath
Deep into my soul
Hey you, come back
Take care of me
Let’s see if we can stay safe
Sit here, just close your eyes
I’ll follow your footprints in my heart
You’ll cure the ruins of my bleeding soul
Now come in, it’s open
Leave your fears here
I wobble, you’re shining, please hold me
Let’s do what the heart suggests now
We hug, holding our breath

What Once Was
04:35
|

What once was a sunray through the rain
Now it’s gone, it’s dark
Everything I had is here
When I stop and I wait
Kissed by sun, I just sit and stare
What once was a presence in the wind
If there were a fay
She’s not here now, gone away
I lost my body, my mind’s already far now
When I stop and I wait
Kissed by sun

When The Tears Fall Down
05:44
|
|||
Now it’s time to go up
Nothing stands in the way here
When the tears fall down on a flight of steps
Lying down somewhere till night falls again
No tears, nor pain
The roof is on fire
Don’t you look back, ooh
Never feel lonely
When the tears fall down on a flight of steps
Lying down somewhere till night falls again
Down down to hell it’s raining again
I see your face against the light
And then I dive down to your heart
When the tears fall down on a flight of steps
Lying down somewhere till night falls again
When the tears fall down on a sea of dark
Lying down somewhere till day comes again

The Outer World
04:32

Need for freedom in life
Never feeling content
Need for further true love to come
Still want to be here
Ashes and hopes on my way today Lowering the anchor in the storms of life
Firmly hold in the straits of love
Outside only for a while and out there is full of dangers
On the low side of the road when night falls
When the ice cracks after the passage of reindeer
Firmly hold in the straits of love
Need for freedom, never bend
Still want to be here
Firmly hold in the straits of love
Need for freedom, never bend
Out there in the dark

Breath, live
Cry, sweat
Laugh, move
Grow, love
Lie down, here, now
Stay straight, don’t sin
Seek truth, stay clean
Choose well, don’t lie
You wonder how
I got this way
Lose my mind
from endless praying I breath again
You can see I changed my way to live again
I saved my soul
Now I try to get more close
to the place where the angels go
You wonder how
I got this way
Lose my mind
from endless praying I breath again
I will catch a raimbow for you and change for real is what I meant when I took leave of you
Lie down, here, now
You can see I changed my way to live again
I saved my soul
Now I try to get more close
to the place where the angels go
Don’t fear, I’m pure and strong
Ask and I’ll put down the walls for you
I’m an alien in this world of pain
I’m a free bird in this cage of flames

Microcosm
05:30
|
|||
No sense of reason, no-one else is around
No signs of life here
Arid expanses and dust in the air
No more sounds to hear and
silence is deafening through this empty space
Here comes the sound of rain
The world seems to revive
Endless sand grains fade into space
Raindrops are falling
slipping away from my hands on the ground
Night falls from ceiling
And my eyes are wet
And my thoughts are dead
Endless sand grains fade into space
Microcosm, life she marched
Through the rain and wind to this wasteland
Leaves fall, I lie down
Thoughts fly, rise, shine
Endless sand grains fade into space
Microcosm, life she marched
Through the rain and wind to this wasteland
Microcosm, staring at these vital signs of life
in this wasteland
Leaves fall, I lie down
Thoughts fly, rise, shine I turn off now
