Destination

Feet need the road to walk
Thoughts need a word to talk
A gun needs a hand to shoot
and the ebbtide follows the flood
All this seems like everything got its destiny while
I’m still chasing yesterday
And I keep on searching and I keep on rolling on
As I got lost in the haze, “I’ll be back someday”
was a phrase, I’ve never ever used
And I keep on rolling although I don’t know where
And I got close to despair, cause I know
nobody cares
I don’t know which way to go
so do you, ain’t I right?!
Hot will turn cold
As the young ones get old
And light turns to dark, night follows the day,
only the river follows its own way
All this seems like everything got its destiny while
I’m still chasing yesterday

River of Faces

Lookin’ out for your smile in a river of faces
I was into your style and the company within
Hold it down for a while… Yes I did, at least I tried
Don’t get me wrong, cause it’s been stronger
back then
But feelings fadin’, some do, yet some do not
So they say – all the same I cried
Way up high in the night, daylight greets my sighs
We were so close and yet so far away,
I hate to say it, but it’s true
It’s all illusion, it’s all illusion anyway
Yet so I heard back then
It’s all illusion, all excluding the
Light, light, light turns darkness dark

Whatever Be
03:38
|
|

All my life I’ve been fighting
A dark undertow
As it keeps dragging me down
I can feel my doubts grow
I remember my Dad saying:
„Some shit’s gotta been done,
So you can finally stop mourning
`Til the next morning still comes“
'Cause every day is a new
So I kept on seeking
For the break of dawn of mankind
But the values I was looking for had long gone
So I had a hard time dealing
A lot of inconvenient truths
But I finally found some peace
At a lakeshore in the woods
In the silence of a lakeshore in the woods
'Cause every day is a new
Whatever be – don’t you ever lose faith
It’s not the time – to dig your own grave
The air you breath – empowers you to
Step out of line
That would mean a lot to me, even if it means
to sleep in my van beneath the trees
All my life I’ve been waiting
Waiting for the storm
Kept holding my breath
For years, now I’m torn
It seems pretty obvious
I needed some release
Stop feeding my loneliness
Overcome my old grief
Overcome my old grief
'Cause every day is a new

Creatures of Habit
04:25

We see what we want to, but we are far away
We see what we're ready yet to face
Have we been learning, have we been trying
Why haven't I been learning after all?
Creatures of habit we are, creatures of soul
Creatures of habit we are
Havin' this thought and said, see me stumble on
Oh, as seasons fly and days go by so fast
Something's holdin' me on my well-known track
And I'm still lookin' back
There's no one to blame for
cause we are all the same in this,
The steps we should take lay right in front of us
Creatures of habit (...)
Using our oldest, worn-out ways
Producing the same results as everyday
Desperately on our ways alone
Attached to those strings we line our feelings on

Struggle of Leaving
04:39
|
|

I tried to keep it clear, I tried to keep you near
You tried to be someone you’re not
I tried to see in you the things I wanted to
You showed me what you thought I’d like
And As I continue, tryin‘ to walk away
my mind is working over it again
Now I am blocked by the thoughts you‘d left behind
You never lost one word and kept me being blind
Try to work it out, but it’s not working without you
We started making out, while we both had doubts
I thought that I could make it last - and as I (...)
Now I’m sittin‘ here, worst breakup is less near
A lot of things unsaid now leave - and as I (...)
Strugglin‘ is normal, but if you’re gettin‘ through
You change your perspective and you change
your point of view
Power comes to you, you’re gettin‘ stronger

How Little Did I Know
04:46
|
|

It started all in summer rain
How little did I know
When things would never seem the same again
How little did I know
Of dancin' steps, so lightly taken, of doubts unshaken
How little did I know
Of restless days and endless nights, of partin' ways
and heavy sighs
Oh, how little did I know
Plenty happy photograph, see us smilin' on the most
of them
Chillin', smilin', sharin laughs, feelin' free
How little did we know
The younger me, I don't envy him, for what he did
not see yet, oh
How little did he know
The older man, I wish him well for he lived the
now and then, and still:
How little will he know
In summer rain it found its end,
Kept on fallin’ on to this very day
Hold her close and let her go, oh, added are
some things I do now know
Ohhh… how little did I know

Sun and Moon
03:45
|
|

In the morning I’ll be gone, said the moon to the sun
Will we ever understand, what we both have become?
We're sharing the same sky, watching different
birds fly
Though we look at the same view, we’re not sharing
any sight
Your light it is my glow
You’re always the same while my change is slow
You’re shining bright while I need to grow
Yeah, both we rise and down we go (...)
Yeah, in the morning you are gone, my friend,
complained the sun
None of us ever asked for what we both have become
I’d love to share with you all my heat and my
light, too
But a duty we both got, for what I ain’t got a clue
Your light may be your glow, and yeah
I’m always the same, while your change is slow,
Yeah, I may shine bright, but you can grow
Yeah, both we rise and down we go (...)

Buzz Lightyear

A cold shiver runs down my spine
A heavy feeling - I can‘t deny
All the years the data could not satisfy
Out in the dark clear sky my target comes to shine
The rocket raised high in the sky,
But it turned nowhere
My whole life became a single lie
And it brought me to despair
I’m looking for a solution of another kind
And kill the reason why I live a lie
My troubled mind I could not passify
Out in the dark blue sky my target comes to shine
The rocket raised high in the sky (...)

My Dear Friend
04:37
|
|

My dear friend, I’ve come to see
What’s been hauntin‘ you – recently
What followed you and kept you awake
Though there’s some heavy sleep to take
With lowered eyes your urge to see
Appears to me more frequently
While songs so deep and words so hard
Invite the world to play its part, but they won’t
And as you know neither them nor the world
Will take from you what you can’t solve
Most truly thoughts, oh they are thought the most
In all those heads so close to get lost in them

Appletree
06:32
|

Everything got its time and so do I
Don’t be afraid, I know you don’t want me to die
But please understand, this life is led by
mysterious hands
And even if you can’t, let me go back
to from where I was sent
Before I leave
There’s one thing I want to achieve
There’s a promise you must givin' me
Please burry me beneath the appletree
Dig my ashes down in your garden, where I felt free
Take off the burden
Take away the pain
Carry my love with you
But don’t let my life be in vain
All these machines make me feel like a puppet
on its strings
But now this ain’t no appeal, I can hear
the choirs sing
And all these sorrows ain’t really worth dying for
I’m thankful for the little happiness
this life brought and brought and brought
Before I leave (...)
In my time of dying
Won’t be no need for any lying
I’ll go back as I started here being
Can you hear the choir singing?
Please burry me beneath the appletree (...)
