The Beloved One With my back to the wall I feel the sundown, which seems to be beautiful The truth is that I am afraid to lose the love which I believed I had found You call me your beloved one, and don't send me a message from your journey How can I know what a beloved one is for you if I don't ask for it How can you know how the pain in me feels if I cannot tell you that I feel pain With my back to the wall I feel the sundown, which seems to be beautiful The truth is that I am afraid to lose the love which I believed I had found You promised love and I failed to see the trapdoor I have cared for you, I have held you, I have carried you, I have lost myself It' s good to know that I have seen through you I am the realist who has fallen for your naivety Now I am standing here and stare at the door by which you disappeared and then to all the memories moving away with you With my back to the wall, I feel the sundown, which seems to be beautiful The truth is that I am afraid to lose the love which I believed I had found

On bad days, it's difficult To see the good Go across the catwalk and fall out of your shoes Get up, smile Swallow your tears Just keep walking Remember the happy faces Forget the sad eyes Be embraced, comfort you Dry your eyes The water tastes salty It burns Some of them hug you out of pity Others of mercy And there's the malicious gloating You can recognice them by their smile The pleatless On bad days, it's difficult to see the good I look into your eyes They don't glow I see your smile That is none But I can see your heart Which carries your blood I can see your breath And I'm telling you Bad days remind us That there are good days too

Dark days 04:15
Dark Days When they see smiling pictures of me They think I'm happy When I write of chaos and tears They think I'm sad Also for you a light will burn again Is it dark? How easy can it be to deceive Show them what they want to see And you lose You and the others When they think your problem isn't existential, it's not. Who is the one who decides about existence Me for you You for me Understanding can only be Whoever experiences the same You and the others In Search for Attention Do you notice those Who should pay attention to you Well, that's the gain or the waste You will be lost Before you found yourself You and the others You and the others

Je suis là 05:22
Je suis là Tu es partie, et je ne pouvais pas te retenir. Peut-être parce que moi aussi, j'étais parti. Je vois le passé passer à côté de moi. Tout se que je peux faire, c'est regarder en arrière. Mais je ne pouvais pas te retenir, tu es parti. Tu étais un petit garçon dans un corps adulte. Et maintenant tu es un dans les nuages. Je suis là. Je comprends qui nous étions, qui nous sommes. Mes yeux sont mouillés, mon cœur s'emballe, ma gorge est lacée, mes mains tremblent. Des mains qui me touchent. Tu es tombé dedans, je ne pouvais pas te retenir. Dans la recherche de l'amour, tu as trouvé la mort. Tu avais besoin d'affection et d'attention. Souvent, tu etais au bord de l'abîme. Encore et encore, tu voulais sauter. Tu as cherché le bonheur et la liberté. Tu as trouvé la misère et l'esclavage, la chaleur et la clarté. John Wayne est un mensonge. Tu le savais. Cependant, Tu n'as pas pu t'en empêcher Tu étais un enfant dans un corps adulte Et maintenant tu es un dans les nuages. Je suis là. Je comprends qui nous étions, qui nous sommes. Rêves et histoires. Un grain de sable scintillant qui se transforme en tempête et laisse derrière des ravages. Une petite graine qui est plantée au mauvais endroit et devient un problème. Les nuages sont un endroit où les morts se cachent. Tu es parti, je ne pouvais pas te retenir. Maintenant, je vois le chagrin en chacun de nous. Tous les trous noirs profonds. Je ne pouvais pas te retenir, tu es parti. Tu étais un petit garçon dans un corps adulte. Et maintenant tu es un dans les nuages. Je suis là. Je peux voir les nuages. Te es un dans les nuages Je suis là. Je suis là.

You are the heat You are the heat that flows through my veins. You are the ember that makes my blood throb. You are the fire that makes my heart beat. I think about yesterday. To the heat that spread. I think about today. To the glow that lights up. I think about tomorrow. The fire will blaze. It was yesterday when I left you for tomorrow to find and lose me today. A burning heart in paradise that is none. You are the light that I breathe. You are the water I swallow. You are the earth that protects me. I see the rays and I shine. I find the waves and I float. I long for the sand and I land. It was yesterday when I left you for tomorrow to find and lose me today. A burning heart in paradise that is none. You are the wine that flatters my mouth. You are the bread that caresses my stomach. You are the salt that plays with my senses. I smell the color that flows into my throat. I taste the sound of my heart warms. I feel the heat that makes me quake. It was yesterday when I left you for tomorrow to find and lose me today. A burning heart in paradise that is none. You are the sand that runs through my fingers. You are the thorn that stings my foot. You are the ray that burns my skin. I realize the tickle and I smile. I notice the stitch and I cry. I recognize the warmth and I live. It was yesterday when I left you for tomorrow to find and lose me today. A burning heart in paradise that is none. You are the heat that flows through my veins. You are the ember that makes my blood throb. You are the fire that makes my heart beat. A burning heart in paradise that is none.

The Way To Nirvana A long time ago, you disappeared Now you've reappeared I don't want to know where you were You're not who you were anymore Completely transformed I'm not who I was anymore Even today, we would not stand a chance We looked into each other's eyes And we didn't know That we are bad liars After the rain, the worm comes crawling out of its hole He writhes, he fights back, he saves himself While you were on your way to Nirvana Even today we wouldn't stand a chance We looked into each other's eyes And we didn't know That we are bad liars I was brave and scared Happy and sad, loud and quiet Still I am. I mean alive You're not who you were anymore Even today, we wouldn't stand a chance We looked into each other's eyes And we didn't know That we are bad liars

The raven, a wise wanderer Who puts lost people on the right track The universe is wide The sun awakens life The moon shows the way The stars light it up Birds fly in the sky A few leave feathers Some can't find their way home The oak stands strong, consistent and ready for battle The moon shows it the way The stars are shining on it The oak survives every storm The freedom-loving raven seek the way wisely The one the moon shows him by starlight
