know what to do

new babylon

going down
to new babylon
with a shuffle in my hand
got a piece of paper
and a pen to write

anywhere you go
is where i wanna be
i love you can't you see
every little turn
knocks me off my feet
all these colors will be seen
underneath all the blue
there's truth waiting for you

i'm looking
for a river
to take me 'way
down oh yeah down to where
all the colours and shadows
would speak to me

anywhere you go
is where i wanna be
i love you can't you see
every little turn
knocks me off my feet
all these colors will be seen
underneath all the blue
there's truth waiting for you

a new kind of love

ouh

anywhere you go
is where i wanna be
i love you can't you see
every little turn
knocks me off my feet
all these colors will be seen
underneath all the blue
there's truth waiting for you

crazy ass

the girl with the stick horse
is riding on the sidewalk
now listen to the jeer talk
jadabidebidej
she's at least half crazy
she's certainly a daisy
what am i thinking
jadabidebidej
she's riding the river
she makes the leaves shiver
now who's the crazy?
jadabidebidej
look she hides her horse
aware of her imaginary force
she tries to control it
jadabidebidej

you're crazy ass-alive
an inspiration come to life
if you’re sad just open your eyes
wait until i pull of my disguise

find me on the catwalk
let me jump the chalk balk
what am i thinking
jadabidebidej
take me to the slow road
switch me up to tour mode
hell i'm not thinking
jadabidebidej
and just what i want
is exactly what i need
high of being freed
jadabidebidej

you're crazy ass-alive
an inspiration come to life
if you’re sad just open your eyes
wait until i pull of my disguise

people don't understand
i like things that aren't planned
how i like to be surprised
art is everything alive.

Close To You

Maybe in a new life
we will know one another again.
maybe!
i loved your colour so i stole it
'had to be
loved you my gorgeous lanky artistic pale hue
you're like a sun

why do stars suddenly appear everytime you're near
just like me they long to be close to you

Ye-e-he-e-hey

Yuh know what
it's over
i can't live here anymore
i try and i try
just never enough to breathe
Stella you don't want me to go back to jail
do you?
you know i'm allready facing loneliness
... haha
no.
but i would drag a moon if need be

why does sadness suddenly appear everytime you're near
just like me death longs to be close to you

Ye-e-he-e-hey
Ye-e-he-e-hey

the thrill when we meet
is so bittersweet

DTQ8689

layers of truth / circles of rainbows
i'm drifting on iceshells over wind frozen seas
i'm cutting the canvas with blue signs of rhythm
its Lou Reed and me and i'm back in the city

this is my shot / I ain't no robot
(i find) nothing to believe in / i'm just constantly receiving
prisons of money as freedom of speach
Andy Warhol and me and i'm back in the city

they tell me i'm just a number DTQ8689
they tell me i'm just a number DTQ8689
they tell me i'm just a number DTQ8689-9-9

it trickels down on me - i become numb and number
they tell me i'm just a number - tell me i'm just a number
surface distraction - rather then solutions
they tell me i suffer from a serious series of confusions

i wanna leave me alone wanna find myself a new home
i'm the rolling pebble stone at the microphone
i got soul and that's all that i need
i got shoes in my pockets and feelers to feed

grey

all you colours, colours
i'll never know

ouh i'm flying all alone
penned up but free
in my grey spaceship
new world here i come
i'm on my way
i'm alive i'm alive

gotta admit to myself
i ain't got no glue what to do
old world ain't mine
future ain't mine
ain't no way back
love became a memory
life slipped into jeopardy
how i wish it was a just dream
funny how now i'm flying this jet beam
leaving it all behind
leaving my friends, my colors
leaving myself behind
i turned into a monster
my skin turned grey
i told you not to trust me
we all knew death was unavoidable!
i just wanted to live, to breath, to feel
and now i'm dead inside
i'll bring you back to life
you'll be painted again and be free
this is my trip to hell
all for you
i love you

all you colours, colours
i'll never know

price tag blues

y'all listenin' to the price tag blues
it's a struggle to win when you're setup to lose
y'all listenin' to the price tag blues
can't afford rent but we've overpaid our dues
y'all listenin' to the price tag blues
wonder why another country just attempted a coup
y'all listenin' to the price tag blues
see on the streets and read it in the news

plastic trash piles up in the oceans
a horror movie revealed in slow motion
makes me wanna be a bacteria able to corrode
wanna eat CO2 like red hulk in rage mode
we're addicted to money and poison, that's all
but if we can't fix this, then mankind will fall
we're too hypnotized by our own inventions
than to organize for a New World with good intentions
we've destroyed our planet with the most passionate devotion
the climate, uncounted species, and with little emotion
self-proclaimed culmination of evolution
is killing all life in its own pollution
what the fuck y'all
what the fuck y'all
what the fuck y'all
what the fuck

y'all listenin' to the price tag blues
it's a struggle to win when you're setup to lose
y'all listenin' to the price tag blues
can't afford rent but we've overpaid our dues

It's just a day in the life, living in the system
You gotta work within them, even though you are against them
And no matter where you go, should you test your bravery
You'll realize the system we have only recently evolved from slavery
but now your master is money, it's the golden rule
that whoever's got the money makes the rule
And if you wanna discuss the merits of our economic philosophy
It just so happens Bee has got two business degrees

listen up class in our consumerist reality
You know exponential growth can't go on infinitely
And if the system's so great, why does it keep dividing
when we really need something supportive and uniting!
And just when you start to feel that you're developing community
Then the real estate crooks come to buy up your scene
And that's called freedom, and that's called development
The rich rob the poor forever, but we only call the opposite violence

i don't get it
this society is corrupt and immoral
if there are aliens on other planets
i'm sure they treat their own kind much better
and if so, i'd like to claim asylum

my own idiocy is hurting me
i'm my own enemy, shot my knee

there's plenty of reason why you should trust me
as i'm not sponsored by any fracking industry
if you change the winds the storms and the floods
its either to dry or sink in the muds
and when the droughts come kick in
it's the dry salt on your skin your licking
i see death wish and self destruction everywhere
no matter how far you go it's already there
in the water in the air in our stomaches in our skin
a lose lose situation and no one will win
22nd century romance submerged in trash
what's left to ponder in the worlds ash?
here's your receipt
the one you better keep
the one you better study
lack of clean water will soon get bloody
for so many it already got tough enough
near future is gonna get rough

lets pull resources lets join forces
lets all end up having intercourses
yeah lets have some fun. come on
no use for greed
just take what you need

flood and tide worldwide landslide
suicide extinction amplified genocide ain't right

y'all listenin' to the price tag blues
it's a struggle to win when you're setup to lose
y'all listenin' to the price tag blues
can't afford rent but we've overpaid our dues
y'all listenin' to the price tag blues
wonder why another country just attempted a coup
y'all listenin' to the price tag blues

scientist friend of mine just called me
she said she discovered immortality
asked if i wanna give it a shot

so i say to myself

and go on and live forever

i know you know

darkness, the sun goes down
the shadows meet common ground oh
night comes, i whisper softly

you only love me in a fit
you only want me late at night

to take you where you love best
arms wrapped around you

and all the running that you do

tip of your tongue

breath in put your head up high and shout it
i'm in love with your twist
i'm in love with you

and i can't find a reason at all

silence

draw a line - make a mark
maybe make a mark by erasure
all around everywhere
i'm awakening on the big blue
this is life
death it means

the orange blue
the yellow

hit a drum drum a hit
i can say what i want but no one listens
white the stars black the sea
blue the lips be the one save me
inside my head - be the one
save me

the orange blue
the yellow

and if you enjoy the silence
life is a leaf fallin from a tree
and if you enjoy to see
i'll be you and you'll be me!

human

save me from the fear that will last
wake me up when all this is past
don't stop dreamin the future's alive
i'm just a human imprisoned at home

i'll be going nowhere
nowhere to go
this is the place to be

save me from this deadly disease
give me love and put me to ease
so hard dreaming i don't wanna die
i'm just a human carving his tombstone

i'll be going nowhere
nowhere to go
this is the place to be

save me from the end of your end
stay alive my dearest sweet friend
don't stop breathing you'll be ok
don't give up there's one thing you should know

you'll be going nowhere
nowhere to go
this is the place to be
you'll be going nowhere
i'll never forget the precious time we had

leave me to the wind and the rain
just leave me to the wind and the rain
i'm just a human and so are you
lets help each other
there's one thing we should know

we'll be going nowhere
nowhere to go
this is the place to be
we'll be going nowhere
no heaven no hell
this is the place to be!
tired of going nowhere
nowhere to go
this is the place to be

blood

i am the teardrop
i am river
i am the cloud the floats the sky
i am the life inside of you
i am the morning leaf dew
i am the moment that you keep

i am the blood inside of you
i lift up to blue sky
and no one every questioned
no one ever wondered why

i am the iceberg
i gift you cold
i am the one
who never disagrees
here i wash your face
here i break the rock
here i rain into the sea

i am the blood inside of you
i lift up to blue sky
and no one every questioned
no one ever wondered why

binoculars

everyday digging a hole
until water would show
establish castles of sand
with jellyfish in my hand
slowly slowly slowly slow
until water would show
slowly slowly slowly slow
waves coming up from below

lets move on to pastures new
all the things we're about to do
for i'm just a child
i want to grow wild
we only live twice
i see the want in your eyes

sounds of water contrast
to rounded pieces of glass
salt in the air sand on the ground
seagulls gliding around
amber with entrapped mosquito
hidden treasures of the lido
slowly slowly slowly slow
border patrol marching to and fro

lets move on to pastures new
all the things we're about to do
for i'm just a child
i want to grow wild
we only live twice
i see the want in your eyes

yeah i can look far
with my binoculars
want to break through the wall
wreck borders once and for all
nobody's free
my body's not free
can't think my way out
can't conquer the sea
nobody's free
nobody's free

home

is it day?
or is it night?
i can't tell
cos i've only seen the darkness
i've been locked up in a cave
they told me
it's the only pretty place to be
i wanted to give to you
for real
wanted to show you how i feel

my babe
i'm coming home

i dreamt of you
last night
i've never been so happy
i was a flower
you were a bumblebee
looking for me
looking for me
it's true
i'd go anywhere for you
i wonder if you do too

my babe
i'm coming home

if life is like a line
and we are points
on a circular canvas
can you paint your life like that
it looks confusing
can you move without moving
got love to give
to you
i wonder if you do too

my babe
i'm coming home

Time Machine

Couldn't think of any other reason
couldn't find another way

I reached out to the stars.
called upon the universe, persuaded mars.

arguing the heavens.
I kneeled down and begged

hugged the biggest trees
climbed highest mountains n sailed the seven seas

i'll build a time machine if only to share love with you
i built this time machine and every fiber in my body knows.
That today's the day
today's the day
today's the perfect day
to go

You're my great great love
of you i just can't get enough

And if the oceans agree
we go back to fourteen twelve BC

i get nervous if i think about
how life would be in a different time.

Cos here in twenty twenty two
it seems there is no space left for us.

i'll build a time machine if only to share love with you
i built this time machine and every fiber in my body knows.

That today's the day
today's the day
today's the perfect day
to go

Let Me Sing You A Song

let me sing you a song while the train moves along
let me sing you a song while the train moves along
i choose to be free oh its so good to be
i choose to be free oh its so good to be
they don't want me to sing
they won't let me in
they'll send me back home oh they'll send me back home
caged others away so far away
some were never be seen some were never be seen
the boarder guard says if you're here to sing
then we won't let you oh we won't let you in
you go back home you go back home
this country ain't free oh this country ain't free
this country ain't free oh this country ain't free
let me sing you a song while the train moves along

over

over its over

you playing this game
driving me home
driving me insane
riding me hard squeezing the pain
pulling the flash pulling the gain
isn't it always the same?

these are just words
meaningless words
baby it hurts baby it hurts
it hurts so much

make my soul understand
make my body understand
make my mind understand

wake up!
i don't know that you don't know my name
its meaningless all the same
the meaning of fame
love is like rain
it never rains in the desert

make my soul understand
make my body understand
make my mind understand

i was cold like a seed in winter for so long
hungry like a cat when the night is gone
any day any hour
hungry for this life
i'm moody like a drunk with no cash and spirit
hungry for this life
death sick like a lake full of trash and poison
hungry for this life
i was hoping like a fugee
with nothing else but hope
looking at my bare hands running from the rope
a belly full of puke and death sick and full of poison
but babe. i'm headed for horizon

hold my hand - let this fever come down
heart so sick pain so strong body so weak

over it's over

war is poison
guns are poion
babe i'm headed for horizon
you can turn around
but you can never go back
you can turn around
but you can never go back
war ain't nothing for the wise man

i'm your fool

you are the magic of the moment
let me love your skin and soul for one beat
you complete me
i'm lost completely

i'd love to love you till the day i die
i want to be the one who makes you cry
don't go away don't turn your back on me now

you walk every step as if it would be the last
you breath every breath as if time would never pass
oh move the lot between us away

i want to love you when the night begins
you are the moon - the sun of all sins
don't leave me here - i'm so far away

let me love you to the end of light
to ease your pride come with the devil
i just want to let you know that
i'm your fool

let me love you to the end of light
to ease your pride come with the devil
i just want to let you know that
i'm your fool

you're hard to get

blue flamingo

when i think of you my love
a blue flamingo flies for me
and i'm overcome
with longing, with longing

carry me far
my train never left
and i'm stil there
saying hello
i want the whole world
to travel with me
'cross the sea

endlessly
endlessly
i've looked death straight in the eye
it is no one's friend
drugged in the river of love
deeper then an ocean

did i come here
to forget
everything
my train never left
and i'm stil here
saying hello
travel with me
across the sea

endlessly
endlessly

i wanna love you
how much i love you
oh you will never know

key to your heart

you voted that wall that you thought would protect you
and now that it's there you hope nobody will get through
one day maybe you'll get it's a prison you've made
and the fear that you had will only rise and not fade
one day maybe luck might change and you'll need to leave
now what is it you think you deserve to receive
being scared of living is the worst thing to do
it's so screwed up so fucked up you'll end up split up in two

gimme the key to your heart
cos i really can't stand the way
i know inside you're watermelon sweet

now freedom and peace are the only protection
and your pompous anger is a stupid reaction
if you think the brave are stupid and the stupid are brave
then i cry for you for being your own fears slave
this wall between us is just a vulgar display
of national sovereignity that is about to decay
when the rich are getting richer on the shoulders of the poor
the world will never be what is was before

gimme the key to your hear
cos i really can't stand the way
i know inside you're
watermelon sweet

when that wall comes crashing down honey
i'll be there for you

Clouds

hold my hand baby i'm your man
this story begins as the day ends
you know - some clouds are cool
hush now baby no need to cry
i will always be - by your side
you know - some clouds have blue eyes

and i spread my butterfly wings
i lend you my one labyrinth
i'm howling like a dog
i can't stand myself

it's so easy to be stranded
it's so easy to be sad
it's so easy to be heartbroken
some clouds have wings

i woke up early with the lights stil blue
the earth and the wind were shinig through
you know - some clouds are cool
you were earth you were on fire
i was wind i took you higher
you know - some clouds have blue eyes

leaves are growing from out of my body
i feel like a zombie
i want to eat your brain
i can't stand myself

it's so easy to be stranded
it's so easy to be sad
it's so easy to be heartbroken
some clouds have wings

up

you want to keep the dream alive - don't wake up
everytime i'm in the city - just don't wake up
no need to run no need to hide - if you just don't wake up
you want to understand why you're fucked and chained up
you want to roll with me - come let's shake it all up
you want to be forever in love - don't wake up
you behind the steering wheel - we never stop we mix it all up

a mountain to climb
a sea to cross
a bay to dive
a game to shake up
a lover to love
a wave to ride
a sky to fly
i'm tighten this up

if you wanna keep flying with me - don't wake up
an apple hanging from a tree - my mind is made up
there's a voice in my head telling me to screw it all up

a story to tell
a wall to paint
there's light here ready to shine
and i cry one tear
i sink right in
i turn up and i breath in
and i set my sails
i blow in
this is fun
we're here to begin

i came here to be alone
so far from home
let me surrender all myself
and all my happiness to you

ouh ouh

so much easier to fly when you're gravity free
no weight ever drags on me
so much easier to time relatively
no wait ever bothers me
so much easier to judge unconsciously
no! wait! can you follow me
bridges to you bridges to me bridges to you

a song to sing
a wall to paint
there's future here ready to be
and a draw one line
the ink sinks in
the papers' gone and it's everything
i shuffle my red
i turn it blue
one earth to live up to and so much to do.

a mountain to climb
a sea to cross
a bay to dive
a game to shake up
a lover to love
a wave to ride
a sky to fly
i'm tighten this up

china instant nudeln

der zug rattert und macht geräusche
und ist auch wie ein schiff
landschaft ist karg. ja traumhaft karg.
und schroff und kühl. und schlammig.

die lokomotive tutet oft.
dann klingt sie wie ein müdes tier
klingt sie wie ein müdes tier
welches schon lang unterwegs war
und das war sie ja auch.
das war sie ja auch.

eben begrüßten sich zwei züge
das klang ungefähr genau so.
eeeeeaaaaaauuuuurrrhhh
iiiiiiiaaaaaauuurrrrhhh
was soll das nur bedeuten?
ich glaube - die können - sich auch
mit walen unterhalten.

der zug wird lauter und schaukelt auch
berge wie wellen auf uns zu
grenzen sind zum überwinden da
funkelnd versteinert zugefror'n

ich geh wir mal die instant nudeln aufwärmen
bald sind wir am baikal see
sind wir am baikal see
wie sich die sonne an den bäumen
vorbeizuschummeln sucht
vorbei zu schummeln sucht
oh ja.

eben begrüßten sich zwei züge
das klang ungefähr genau so.
eeeeeaaaaaauuuuurrrhhh
iiiiiiiaaaaaauuurrrrhhh

Blue

everybody feels the rain
everybody feels the rain
let it wash away the pain
everybody feels the rain

slowly down the drain
my love i can't explain
you do it again and again
everybody feels the rain

tomorrow i'll lose my mind
the sadness i can't leave behind
sometimes love is so hard to find
so blue in this need for you

i drive my car to spain
i'm so sick of the rain
you do it again and again
everybody feels the rain

everybody feels the rain
everybody feels the rain
let it wash away the pain
everybody feels the rain

a rain to drown all rains
a hard a long rain it's like living underwater
i'd give everything for hat
how many years since the rain stopped raining
one more day and i'll go mad
rain drops heavy like sunsets

tomorrow i'll lose my mind
the sadness i can't leave behind
sometimes love is so hard to find
so blue in this need for you
so blue in this need for you
so blue in this need for you

summer holiday

you say it's a sad day
like any other day
you tell me you've been down for almost a decade
you've been walking in a dark tunnel for very long

come let the colours in
let love begin
kill the darkness within

i think we should do a summer holiday
just to take it away
i can find a place for the two of us to stay
we should leave right away
you can quit your job
i can play guitar
we can go really really far
we can buy a boat or maybe rent a car
we could go really really far

you tell me darkness feels secure to you
but that's just what depression's voice is telling you
you're so desperate for love why push it all away

come let the colours in
let love begin
kill the darkness within

i think we should do a summer holiday
just to take it away
i can find a place for the two of us to stay
we should leave right away
you can quit your job
i can play guitar
we can go really really far
we can buy a boat or maybe rent a car
we could go really really far

you can't hide in a campfire
join me living on a fence
to feel alive
to feel something more
in a fantasy world
living for a dream

i think we should do a summer holiday
just to take it away
i can find a place for the two of us to stay
we should leave right away
you can quit your job
i can play guitar
we can go really really far
we can buy a boat or maybe rent a car
we could go really really far

1989

we travel reverse in time
to meet you in 80 and 9
when the moon and the stars and the train realign

we travel reverse in time
when colours and sound intertwine
where nobody stares at their phones all the time

oh no! something went wrong.
must have set time machine to a much different song.
oh no fuck! what a blast! this ain't the past.
this must be the future.
now that i'm here i might as well look.
first thing i notice nobody's reading a book.
all behave like fish on dictator shitty pings hook.
the government tells you what to do.
making life real easy for you.
no choices no freedom of speech.
they poisen your mind like skin with skin bleach.
one thing for granted. everybody's got a SIM card implanted
you work until you die nobody looks a stranger in the eye
it makes me wanna cry.
this can't be real. this is so far from ideal.
it doesn't suit me. everybody just wants to use me.
to stuff and abuse me.
to rape and to bury me and for all of it charge me.
charge me to much. what if i just die in the wrong place
i'm mixed race. everybody is. i'm german i'm polish you're chinese.
so what? we have the same african roots. walk the exact same DNA boots.
we're identical. blood's a powerful thing.
no reason for that bullshit you sing.
bullshitskee. like russians would say.
you're just about to ruin my day.
what do i think about true blood?
is this really the question you've just asked?
well let me give you a meaningfull task.
go shit and smell it.

we travel reverse in time
to meet you in 80 and 9
when the moon and the stars and the train realign

we travel reverse in time
when colours and sound intertwine
where nobody stares at their phones all the time

mr. police officer. nobody's talking like that to me.
i'm from way in the past and can't you see.
you're a tiny wheel in mechanisms of power.
ready to be replaced any hour.
go suck your chicken finger
you're the KTV out of tune copy of a
marionette singer.
you represent a government never elected.
your speach is rejected.
shut up. you don't tell me anything.
mirrow that shit to ping brother.
nice pose. did you just make a peace sign?
think the police tank looks sexy?
now what do you think this flying piece of shit is gonna do?
bring love and peace to you?
remember tiananmen 19 and 80 and 9

we travel reverse in time
to meet you in 80 and 9
when the moon and the stars and the train realign

we travel reverse in time
when colours and sound intertwine
where nobody stares at their phones all the time

underneath my pillow
i was looking for my teeth
when the nighth was nearly over
i stranded on my feet
i jumped out of the window
hid the things i took
i ran away from this grazy scene
tried to keep the thought you shook

in the morning - i was laughing
cos the blackbird - kept on talking
and she said - you'll never be the same
in the morning - i wasstumbling
in the left room - you were hiding
and she said - you'll never be the same
you'll never be the same

i came in from the wilderness
you read about in books
don't know if i was dreaming
don't know how long it took
i reached the destination
followed the tracks from home
i really needed someone
and i needed to be alone

in the morning - i was laughing
cos the blackbird - kept on talking
and she said - you'll never be the same
in the morning - i wasstumbling
in the left room - you were hiding
and she said - you'll never be the same
you'll never be the same

whatever i do
i'll be thinking about me and you
i'll be thinking about me and you

cut out the dying stuff
its not the way we talk

Who You Are Is Here

you throw me in the deepest depths
you shoot me on the highest heights
you are my love
you are my love
and i walk out like a lonely rainbow
i caught your thoughts a while
i miss you oh how much i miss you
i guess it makes you smile
good for you my love
my face is pale like the snow
pale colours sprinkled

lines tender as silk
your mouth written in the haze
cold sneaks up my legs
don't know a thing
i'm falling
air is different now
i can't get my breath
where is the wall which saved me
i long to love you

alive

a water sprinkled window
i try to catch you in the drops
i could see you in everything
you are my love
ice floe on the Elbe
landscape is moving
you're still there
are you there?

lines tender as silk
your mouth written in the haze
cold sneaks up my legs
don't know a thing
i'm falling
air is different now
i can't get my breath
where is the wall which saved me
i long to love you

colors fade away

es fühlt sich toll an
so erfrischend
ich habe keine angst mehr

rot ist rot gelb ist gelb

sometimes i feel as if music
is the only one

ich treibe mit der Strömung
ein wenig hin und her

No One Could Have Hoped For A Better End

come have some water
it will surely be good for you
DJ's playing the same over and over
if it weren't for you i'd long be gone
if it weren't for you i'd long be gone

i saw you standing in that corner
with a bundle of flowers in your hand
you seemed so happy and bowled over
no one could have hoped for a better end
no one could have hoped for a better end

mirror ball was spinning in circles
everyone cheered and laughed
i loved your hair and your shoulders
sunflowers were holding hands
sunflowers were holding hands

you were skipping with the music
i saw your silhouette in the light
and as the spot hit your cheekbones
no one could have hoped for a better end
no one could have hoped for a better end

The Universal

I don't want to face it - no way
I don't want to open my eyes
life drops like flies

Not every word is spoken
Not every spell is broken
what's going on?

Envy puts numbers on plates
Digging for the pearly white gates
here comes the son of gravity

Is it any wonder that love kills
When i need a friend to live
Is it any wonder that tears role
down our souls going astray

The U - Ouh - nii - ver sal

I'm here and i try to remain
Looking for the easiest pain
To get away - from policy

I'm trying to get you in bed
Need you to rescue my head
Rip down all hate - in everyone

Maybe we could go out dancing
And dance all night and all day
And i would never never think of leaving
Not have a single thought of flying away

The U - Ouh - nii - ver sal

Everyone is running for cash
I'm a knock on your door
Knock on your door - mh mh hm

The U - Ouh - nii - ver sal

The Sweetest Thing Around

i would love you up until the ground
you must be the sweetest thing around
true colors are flying all around
jumping up and falling to the ground
i just got here in this little town
you must be the sweetest thing around
you would love me up until the ground
just by the way your lovely voice would sound

singing ouh
if you want to know the truth
you make me so mad
yeah yeah you want to know the truth
if you hear colors your eyes must be able to speak

all my worries troubled me so long
big things will be small and small things gone
so breath in and be prepared to sing
night is shaded wood and raven wing
you must be the sweetest apple pie
say hello and later wave goodbye
i'm howling like a wolf towards the sky
if i could only hear your sweetness sigh

singing ouh
if you want to know the truth
you make me so mad
yeah you want to know the truth
if you hear colors your eyes must be able to speak

I Want You

i was lying awake
thinking a night a day and a night
i was waiting for you
to call my name
there must be many here among us
who can't sleep at night
being trapped in their problems

but this place is lost anyway
life is fading away
why does it feel like there is no we

i want you

i was facing the sky
watching a night a day and a night
wishing stars were passing by
heavy clouds to come
i was wondering why
we only feed what we want to eat

but this place is lost anyway
life is fading away
this place is lost anyway
don't move further away
if this is now - then its forever

i want you

let me tell you the truth
a night is a day is a night is a day
i was waiting for you
to be with me
these houses so old and grey
they're falling apart so beautifully
filled with silence and rain

but this place is lost anyway
life is fading away
this place is lost anyway
don't move further away
and its you
and its me
and its now

i want you

1st Song

no other place to be
come and change with me
this whole world
we'll change our days and nights
know you don't have to fight
against me
see how the river flows
being at all times new
yet the same stream
as sunlight hits the ground
darkness comes around
for someone

like a rising sun
you are the one
you're the first song
i've sung
everyday could be
the last
time is running
too fast

see how the sky would change
waiting for each one
to come
well nothing lasts for long
but i know we'll be strong
together

like a rising sun
you are the one
you're the first song
i've sung
everyday could be
the last
time is running
too fast

Brooklyn Lullaby

it's so dark and nearly still
sounds so soft and personal
people so few and obvious
its 3 a.m. in brooklyn

the time has come to rest you head
you had such a long day
tired feet and tired senses
its 3 a.m. in brooklyn

search hard for a star to wish
praise the love thank the sun
soon i will sing a lullaby of breath
its 3 a.m. in brooklyn

we're covered and we are close
so close your eyes for the night
soon i will sing a lullaby of breath
its 3 a.m. in brooklyn

Leave Me Alone

leaves are fallin from the black birds branch
he said: this is my branch this is not your business
i want to share but i'm not able
you can have a seat on the electric cable

Leave Me Alone

do you imagine moments exist at all
every moment is gone forever
the future is our mind the past has passed
why does it make me sad

Leave Me Alone

whose time - is to stay
when all love - is flying away
leaves are falling winter will be soon
where are you - where - is my home

rain

the tears i can't let fall

Live Forever

all that is in my hands
and all of the time i spend
i take my breath
take my time
serve my soul
lose my faith
lose my will
lose control

all what is in my mind
and all of the shells i find
play my drums
play my bass
paint my soul
lose my sails
lose my wind
lose control

i want to live forever
forever and now
i want to live forever
can't live now

time fades away
fades me away.
time fades away
fades us away.

all what is in my sight
and for all of the things i fight
i take my breath
take my time
serve my soul
lose my faith
lose my will

i want to live forever
forever and now
i want to live forever
can't live now

Analyse

ich wäre gern wie alle
anderen statt anders sein
irgendeinmal in der mitte
drin mit stehn
statt draussen sein

dann und wann
zieh ich mir an
die sachen wie
sie allen stehn
tagelang ueb ich da drin
die schritte wie
die anderen gehen

ich wäre gern so ganz ganz anders
als alle statt ganz gleich zu sein
irgendeinmal sehr weit draussen
schwebend frei statt drin allein

drin allein

manchmal seh ich ihre lippen
woerter sprechen zu verstehn
seh dann sogar in ihre augen
blick im kreis wohl nicht verstehn

ich wäre gern so ganz ganz anders
als alle statt ganz gleich zu sein
irgendeinmal sehr weit draussen
schwebend frei statt drin allein

i caught your thoughts a while
i miss you oh how much i miss you

pale colours sprinkled

lines tender as silk
your mouth written in the haze
cold sneaks up my legs
don't know a thing
i'm falling
air is different now
i can't get my breath
where is the wall which saved me
i long to love you

alive

a water sprinkled window
i try to catch you in the drops
i could see you in everything
you are my love
ice floe on the Elbe
landscape is moving
you're still there
are you there?

exist cos they don't have love

i tell you its true

cut out the dying stuff
its not the way we talk
its not the way we talk
cut out the dying stuff
its not the way we talk
you don't know how lucky you are

dedde er da igge mange da ken forsto men du ken
but hold me as close as you can
and thing about nothing
can you not feel my heart is your heart
i am you and you are me

i tell you its true

cut out the dying stuff
its not the way we talk
its not the way we talk
cut out the dying stuff
its not the way we talk
you don't know how lucky you are

Girona

6 stories tall
block out the sun
Girona

sideways skylights
this place is speakin
in a twisted tongue
doing kartweels
i'm out there

these cobbeled stones
and cupper coins
keep bending my ear
and vivivibrating my

sparrow coo
i love you

12 hundred years
walked on this path
Girona

bright lemon treat
meet salty sweet
on a table for two
in passing i'm out there

some sleepy stream
will cary me
a leaf on my back
i'm vivivibrating

sparrow coo
i love you

Shades Of Grey In December
Everyday In A Different City
Now I'm Walking Down The Street
I've Got Something To Say
I'm Thinking Of Yesterday
Good Times So Hard To Hold
I'm Thinking Of Tomorrow
Now! Now! Now! Now!

Shades Of Grey In December
Do You Remember The Days We Had?

I Spent All My Time
To Travel Around And Play Shows
Sometimes It's Hard To Do
When You're Down And Out

Shades Of Grey In December
Do You Remember The Days We Had?

Somewhen I'm High
Somewhere Along The Way
In The End
I Need You
Because

Love Is My Drug
Life Is My Passion
This Is Music

Shades Of Grey In December
Do You Remember The Days We Had?

Tree
Tree You're One Of My Kind
Time You Never Talk To Me
Tree You Are So Deep In My Mind
But If I Cut You I Will See Your Age Tree

We Grew Up Together - For Such A Long Time
Your Ties Grew Longer - And So Did Mine
First The Ropes I Fixed - Lay On The Ground
The Swing Is Now - High in The Grown

Love, I Cannot Talk To You
I Try As Hard As I Can
Money, You Talk To Me
This Is A Breakdown I've Been Through

We Grew Up Together - For Such A Long Time
Your Ties Grew Longer - And So Did Mine
First The Ropes I Fixed - Lay On The Ground
The Swing Is Now - High in The Grown

Its Live That Makes Us Confuse
Its Live That Makes Us Confuse
Its Live That Makes Us Confuse
And The Fear Of Death

Live In The Name Of Love

Underwater Love Song
your eyes are my favorite colour
and you are my favorite one
i swim in the greenblue water
an ocean of joy to me

Love

Underwater Love

Meteorite Float
cold / rainy day
all i can see is blue
don't like to get
sick i just want to sing

whish you could hear
me playing all these songs
how can i reach you
this life won't last for long

please take me away
to the next lonesome beach
i like to swim
don't like to worry
no i don't like to think

there's no space in my head
there's colour in my head
there's rain in my head
and there's you

twelve degrees of frost
my nose is getting red
i sweep along
on the newborn ice

please take me away
to the next bakery
i like to eat
don't like to worry
no i don't like to think

there's no space in my head
there's colour in my head
there's rain in my head
and there's you

things don't stay the same
things are meteorites
they float for an eternity years
to burn in second to dust

there's no space in my head
there's colour in my head
there's rain in my head
and there's you

You're So Right!

those black and white letters
this dust in the air
these words in my mind

those black and white letters
some you can see
some are for seers

you're so right you're so right

those black and white letters
so excited to se em
i can never give up

those black and white letters
i was sure for the first time
but now i forgot

you're so right you're so right

yellow it feels so right with you
can't get enough
yellow i'm drifting through you

you're so right you're so right

Feel The Love
I Want And I Cannot
And I Have To Confess
That I Stare Into The Light


All The Time
It Reflects My Mood


Like Green Meadows
The Green That Surrounds Us


Is Gentle With Me

I Let Myself Fall
Into The Light


I Forget My Time And I Feel


The Love In The Air


And A Smile Came To Your Face
The Air Is Grey Even Here
We Talk A Lot About It


The Night Has Stayed Black 
And That Is Good So


Darkness Around Me
Is So Dark – So Very Dark

I Let Myself Fall
Into The Light


I Forget My Time And I Feel


The Love In The Air


And A Smile Came To Your Face

Ye-e-he-e-hey




Maybe in the new year
we will know one another again. maybe
i love your face so i stole it baby
love you my gorgeous lanky artistic pale baby
you're like the wind

why do birds suddenly appear everytime you're near
just like me they long to be close to you

Ye-e-he-e-hey

Yuh know what
it's over
i can't do this anymore
i try and i try
just never enough for you
Stella you don't want me to go back to jail
do you?
you know i'm allready facing felonies
... haha
no.
but i would drag a hoe if need be

why do birds suddenly appear everytime you're near
just like me they long to be close to you

Ye-e-he-e-hey
Ye-e-he-e-hey

Underwater Death Song
sometimes i feel as if music
is the only one
who really loves me
sometimes i feel as if music
is the only one

2 meter unter
der wasseroberfläche
an einen stein gebunden
wie schön die sonne funkelnd
von den Wellen gebrochen
wird den Wind spüre ich
nicht ich
bin nicht mehr da
das tut gut
meine lunge ist
voll wasser
es fühlt sich toll an
so erfrischend
ich habe keine angst mehr

sometimes i feel as if music
is the only one
who really loves me
sometimes i feel as if music
is the only one

ich treibe mit der Strömung
ein wenig hin und her
immer an den stein gebunden
ich mag steine
diesen hier besonders
er ist groß und dunkel
aber ich schaue lieber in die sonne
diesen See zu verdunsten

sometimes i feel as if music
is the only one
who really loves me
sometimes i feel as if music
is the only one

you're yellow
ocean's blue
red is red
this is music

I Paint It On A Wall

there's so much love in the world
i will take it all
i will take it all
i amp it and i bring it out
i sing it in a song
i paint it on a wall

the will to grow

the heavens grate
we all disappear so take me from here
it won't be long
it won't be long

there's so much pain in the world
i will take it all
i will take it all
i shape it and i bring it out
i sing it in a song
i paint it on a wall

you cannot stop us
stop.
we gonna rise

a human show - i paint it on a wall
the will to grow - i paint it on a wall
senses been made
the heavens grate
we all disappear so take me from here
it won't be long - i paint it on a wall
it won't be long - i paint it on a wall
i sing it in a song
it won't be long

I Sleep Beneath The Golden Hill

it was snowing
vanity's a fishermans hat and a blue tattoo
one is always two
a wooden balcony
facing a small street and is lined with a million houses
that blow away when the wind comes to
sing a louder tune
come sing a louder tune

5 am when i'm not this hunchback that you see
i sleep beneath the golden hill

it was raining
vanity's a leather belt and a bare feet
two is always one
she said baby
i've got the desert under my toenail
but the nights are absolutely stunning
sing a louder tune
come sing a louder tune

5 am when i'm not this hunchback that you see
i sleep beneath the golden hill

why must you go
wandering my honey
on your own
do you believe that it's possible for us
to throw of the mask of custom and manners
that insulate man from man
and converse in naked honesty and frankness
why must you go
wandering my honey
on your own

5 am when i'm not this hunchback that you see
i sleep beneath the golden hill

the peanut conversation blues song

here i swim
with this fine guitar
playin' - the blues again
i've come back to my roots
i've come back to my roots yeah!

here i swim
in this old old river
drifting along downstream
i'm down on my knees yeah!
i'm down on my knees

solo

here i'm laying in the water
don't know what to do
i try to search for stones
but i can not breathe
i drink some water make some bubbles
and when the night comes
i have a look at the stars

one day i meet a peanut
and we have a little conversation
'what do you do here? you can not swim'
'you are a peanut! get out of here
to where you once belonged.'

here i'm diving with all these fish
sometimes they talk to me
they say: 'why do you breathe air?'
and i say: 'i don't know'
and i say: 'i don't know'

peewee princess of the Dau & Deh

peewee princess crow up in the land of Dau & Deh
she was lovely and petite
always looked frail
she had black eyes like two deep lakes
and she was highly musical
again she could conjure
she always could differ good and bad before
she was so sensitive and wise
that her great people never suffered hunger
cos she could feel it all
and her realm was full of painted colours
as the macigians here from the beautifull princess
they wanted to wrest the mistery of here macig

but she took the Dau & Deh with her
in her heart and left her land
but she took the Dau & Deh with her
in her heart and left her land
she donatetd the Dau & Deh to the entire world
and the universe

today hardly no one knows
the Dau & Deh today
and no one knows the peewee princess
but someone who takes care
feels the Dau & Deh still today
in a big world
feels the Dau & Deh still today
in a big world
they are there and protect it all
this is how Sobolewski's farytail ends
but just let me tell you one more thing

in a far day when many words are silent
something strange will happen

by Peter Piek

Die kleine Prinzessin
Die kleine Prinzessin wuchs im Land des Dau und De auf.
Sie war hübsch und zierlich, ja fast zerbrechlich anzuschauen, hatte schwarze Augen wie zwei tiefe Seen und war sehr musikalisch.
Außerdem konnte sie zaubern: Sie konnte immer Gut und Böse vorher unterscheiden.
Sie war so sensibel und benervt, daß ihr großes Volk nie Hunger litt, weil sie alles fühlen konnte.
Und ihr Reich war voller bunter Farben.
Als die Magier von der schönen Prinzessin hörten, wollten sie ihr das Geheimnis ihres Zaubers entreißen.
Als das die kleine Prinzessin fühlte, denn sie konnte alles fühlen, nahm sie das Dau und De in ihrem Herzen mit und verließ ihr Land.
Weil die Prinzessin nicht nur schön, sondern auch klug war, schenkte sie das Dau und De der ganzen Welt und dem Universum.
Die Magier wurden so also von der Prinzessin ohne zu kämpfen schon vorher besiegt.
Nun lebt die hübsche Prinzessin lange und glücklich und unerkannt an einem anderen Ort.
Kaum einer kennt heute noch das Dau und De.
Und die kleine Prinzessin kennt auch keiner.
Wer sich aber die Mühe gibt, fühlt das Dau und De noch heute in der großen Welt.
Sie sind immer da und beschützen alles.
So endet mein kleines Märchen.
An einem fernen Tag, wenn viele Worte schweigen, wird etwas Seltsames geschehen.
(Klaus Sobolewski, 21.06.2006)

you know how i feel

swimming in the midsummerrain
floating across the rainbow
dancing as i want to dance

kissing because i like kissing
a warm drink in winter
see you lauhing and see you laughing

we have been dead
now we are alive
you know how i feel

your eyes are gleaming
and your smell is so good
the moon moves along to cover the sun

we have been dead
now we are alive
you know how i feel

time to fly away

it's time
that we live again today
cause the morning
that is waking up in us is
red
let's dream about the seas
that we will get to know
we're not afraid

it's time to go
it's time to play
it's time to fly away

come on - lets dream together
and take me for a ride

there is much more
allthough you are everything
than you - let us dream
let us dream
we're going with the wind
the day has already
given us a lot

it's time to go
it's time to play
it's time to fly away

come on - lets dream together
and take me for a ride
written by Peter Piek

Peter Piek's 1st written down dream

there is something in the air - kid
but i can't tell what it means - no
paranoia we can't play down
and we drift away

i woke up this morning
tried to sleep again
and to continue my dream
there were some unknown people
in a dusty landscape
sitting around a wooden table
they brought me a silver plate
with a thousand delicious mouthfuls
i said: 'thank you. but who's that daugther?'
back in the dawn
we took a sailing boat
and we sailed away
yeah! - we sailed away-
she said her name is ariane
and we sailed away
yeah! - we sailed away

a pirate ship under full sail with three gigantic pylons
"ariane what's going on here?" i whispered
steering wheel and ropes went on his own - no seaman - was on the ship
"where are the shoco-cookies peter?"

(solo)

"we are going in the right direction"
a skeleton came out of his cabin - oouuh
"welcome on my ship. I'm the captain!" he said
and he smelled like dead
and he told us what to do, ariane
she took my hand
and we jumped overboard
we were gliding in the air for a few seconds - splash

a red robin sang us a song - it was very rhythmic
"ariane what's going on here?" i whispered
the robin hung on thin ropes - it was a puppet
"where is the puppet-player peter?"

in your eyes

a flower is bloom
in your eyes
i walk trough the town
and see them

your eyes are green and somethimes blue
eyes are always true

a violett flower is bloom
for you
she's embracing and caresing you

i'm walking and see them
i can't believe that it's happening now

your eyes are green and somethimes blue
eyes are always true

a confrontation with myself

at a place where time
is culminating around space
and both are resolving
on a mountian without a peek
there every cut means a new begining
a confrontation with myself

what is fortune? - it is usually a moment
the capability of feeling by means of suffering
turns permanent happiness into unhappiness?
feel the ground the earth with your senses
and with your sex

and recognize that you and me
WE ARE ONE!!!!
time will come that we shall return
into her lap
death is ceasing each second
and is reincarnating each second newly
i'm laying dowm naked
my chest on the earth
when will you discover - me?

i'm deeply blue in my soul
when will i discover you

what is fortune? - it is usually a moment
the capability of feeling by means of suffering
turns permanent happiness into unhappiness?
feel the ground the earth with your senses
and with your sex

too many choices make me unhappy
i don't want to see anyone than you and me
and we would start together
would it be the same?
our children - our artwork

i'm deeply blue in my soul
when will you discover me

what is fortune? - it is usually a moment
the capability of feeling by means of suffering
turns permanent happiness into unhappiness?
feel the ground the earth with your senses
and with your sex

the invisible hides the colours

you know i try to reach the bottom
of my life
i got a question everytime
i feel you i see you i paint

ooooouuuuhhh
music is the healer!

i got so much
love inside
you know that i would say to you
anyway i wanna grow

ooooouuuuhhh
now i know that i love her

you are the human
who stands - before me
where is the god who loves us
and we - we are dursty
the scream of life

ooooouuuuhhh
light shines upon us

this painting likes to kiss your eyes
let us life - let us life
we are thrown away
melt away - like snowballs

ooooouuuuhhh
the invisible hides the colours
ooooouuuuhhh
the invisible hides the colours
ooooouuuuhhh
the invisible hides the colours
ooooouuuuhhh
the invisible hides the colours

people we aren't free enough

people we aren't free enough
it's hard to make a change
smoking dream pipes
trying to find a piece of mind
everybody should have a face
in such a big place
walking in another world
all night long

and i'm so down today
and i'm longing for more music
and i don't believe in magic

people we aren't free enough
the morning brings the day
came in trouble with friends
won't find many more in live
sometime our path will end
we have to walk away
i'm sad and i'm happy too
good luck to all of you

and i'm so down today
and i'm longing for more music
and i don't believe in magic
and i'm so down today
and i'm longing for more music
and i don't believe in magic

everybody feels the rain

everybody feels the rain
everybody feels the rain now
i really hope it's all the same
i hope its all the same now

looks like i'm going alone
i have to go with all my pain now

the day hides thes sun - well
today we wash our souls
i watch a mirror turn to sea
trees are shining golden

looks like i'm going alone
i have to go with all my pain now
looks like i'm going alone
it's an end and a new beginnig

everybody hears the rain
now we close our eyes
we're swimming in a lake now

everybody hears the rain
everybody hears the rain fall
now we close our eyes
we're swimming in a lake now

now i know
that i love her
in a white room
without a door - oh
please take me too
the start

looks like i'm going alone
i have to go with all my pain now
looks like i'm going alone
now listen to the rain drops fall

while the sun is burning away

while the sun is burning away
while the sun is burning away

people starve of hunger
one by two seconds
you kill, i kill, we kill
it's a cruel world for many of us
tell me why - why are people cruel

while the sun is burning away
while the sun is burning away

there are too many people
who've got to take their meal
out of the dustbin
share your affluence
make trade fair

while the sun is burning away
while the sun is burning away

look they invest our money
look they invest our money
look they invest our money
worldovershootday
look they invest our money
look they invest our money
look they invest our money

Peter Piek's 2nd written down dream

nothing happened
nothing happened for a long while

hello this is peter piek
and i like to tell you another dream
but it was'nt a good dream
i was sitting in a chair apathically staring
at one point on the air

nothing happened
nothing happened for a long while

then a girl came to me
she talked to me but i could'nt understand a word she said
she was out of focus
and well she was quite unpracticall for my dream
all this emptiness i had before
this point in the air
she destroyed it all

nothing happened
nothing happened for a long while

at this time i felt
that i was dreaming
and i began of wondering how
to make my dreamworld better
indeed o like to sleep
could someone wake me up
wake me up!

solo

nothing happened
nothing happened for a long while

zwielicht Grün, Blau, Grau kein Weiß mehr und Gelb, wo ist das Rot verlogen, verheuchelt zweideutig deine Sinne sind angespannt ruhiges verlangen und Melancholie schemenhaft erkennen wir die Dinge tief weit vom halbdunkel verschluckt Was ist es eigentlich, dass Zwielicht? Ist es nicht schön, das Zwielicht? Ich glaube ich liebe es Genießer sterben wohl später deshalb sie länger leiden Schwarz ist nur schön mit den Sternen scheinbar sensibel tasten wir uns vor alles ist im Zwielicht und ausgenutzt verborgen im dunkeln läßt sich leichter zerstören blind sind wir dennoch nicht morgen sind wir alle tot letztendlich hoffnungsvoll gewollt Ist es nicht schön, das Zwielicht? Ich glaube ich liebe es Genießer sterben wohl später deshalb sie länger leiden solo

rotes papier die straßen meines viertels sind lehr in diesen tagen ich laufe sie gern entlang alles atmet, kämpft um licht ich atme auch sehnsucht auf rotem papier notiere ich: rhythmus ebene und form zu farbe ich kreise es ein finde ein streichholz ohne zu wissen warum zünde ich es an ich will ja nicht sagen das es mir egal ist aber ich hab dich ja immer noch in mir es brennt 1 ist 2! das ist es der tag steckt in seinen letzten zügen und wieder denke ich an dich du bist wie der mond über mir weit weg auf einem rotem papier schreibe ich dir ein paar zeilen lass mich auf wolken mit dir tanzen du sagst du liebst mich nicht mehr und ich sage du lügst ich will ja nicht sagen das es mir egal ist aber ich hab dich ja immer noch in mir jetzt wäre ich gern leblos und kalt ein kleiner kieselstein in einem fluß voller tränen ich will ja nicht sagen das es mir egal ist aber ich hab dich ja immer noch in mir ich will ja nicht sagen das es mir egal ist aber ich hab dich ja immer noch in mir

leben am meer Leben am Meer und ein Kuß von dir jeden Morgen da, wo das Gras grün ist liebe ich dich Leben am Meer und ein Kuß von dir jeden Abend die Luft zum Atmen sauber ich atme dich jede Nacht träume ich einen Tag mit dir Du könntest mir gehören, und wirst es auch bald tun also nimm mich mit nimm mich mit nur für einen Tag den ich bin traurig für mich allein

neu kennengelernt warum tut sie uns so weh sie ist doch sonst nicht so versteht doch ganz genau ich glaube ihr kein Wort mehr Sie ist so grausam feige versteckt sich schön hinter ihrer kalten Mauer gebaut um gerade uns so zu treten Sie war verändert, in dieser Nacht wie sie sonst ist ich hab sie neu kennengelernt Das kann sie doch nicht tun aber sie tut es doch läßt uns im kalten stehen dabei ist ihr selbst nicht warm Sie war verändert, in dieser Nacht wie sie sonst ist ich hab sie neu kennengelernt written by Peter Piek, jan 2000 © Peter Piek

sie ist blau blumen auf dem mond wachsen sie wo keine sonne scheint tausende schwärmen durch die nacht um sie zu pflücken ich kann die nacht sehen sie ist blau ich kann die nacht sehen sie ist blau du und ich sitzen hier warten schon lange nicht mehr auf dich vermisster freund ist gestorben ich kann die nacht sehen sie ist blau ich kann die nacht sehen sie ist blau

das Laternenlied ich habe gedacht das die laterne mich liebt und das sie eifersüchtig ist wenn sie ausgeht immer dann wenn ich unter ihr laufe wenn ich weg bin geht sie wieder an wenn ich weg bin geht sie wieder an vielleicht geht sie auch nur aus weil sei kaputt ist oder sie ist alt und leuchtete viele jahre all die zeit habe ich nie auf sie geachtet jetzt geht sie nicht nehr wenn ich unter ihr laufe jetzt geht sie nicht nehr wenn ich unter ihr laufe written by Peter Piek, 2001 © Peter Piek

Fassadenwelt deine Seele eingepferscht in die Fassade baust du nur noch mehr Mauern darum eingeengt fühlt man sich sicher die Gesellschaft zeigt einem den Weg das problem alleine Die Veränderung neue Erwartungen die Fassade zieht mit aufgeweckt mutig gibt es Hoffnung doch scheinbar gefällt dein wandelndes Ich Du bist, was du gestern warst - Fassadenwelt Du bist, was du heute bist - Fassadenwelt Du bist, was du morgen sein wirst - Fassadenwelt oder nichts von alledem bist du ich kann nicht in dich hineinsehen deine kalten blauen Augen sagen mir nichts mehr Worte dringen hastig aus deinem Mund verschwinden unverstanden aus meinem Kopf sprunghaft schön sicher magst du sein hoffentlich vielleicht täuscht das Bild wir werden unseren weg nun allein gehen gefällt dir dein wandelndes ich? Du bist, was du gestern warst - Fassadenwelt Du bist, was du heute bist - Fassadenwelt Du bist, was du morgen sein wirst - Fassadenwelt oder nichts von alledem bist du Du bist, was du gestern warst - Fassadenwelt Du bist, was du heute bist - Fassadenwelt Du bist, was du morgen sein wirst - Fassadenwelt oder nichts von alledem bist du

an das meer unablässig schlagen Wellen gegen den Sand wenn sie brechen am Strand schon seit wir denken können schon viel viel länger immer kleiner – Steine ich lasse sie rieseln ich lasse sie rieseln - Yeah er rauscht – durch meine Finger was machst du mit mir fang mich wieder auf mach was du willst. immer kleiner – Steine bis man sie nicht mehr erkennen kann dann nimmt man eine Lupe dann ein Mikroskop dann lässt man sich etwas neues einfallen ich lasse sie rieseln ich lasse sie rieseln - Yeah! Er rauscht – durch meine Finger Was machst du mit mir Fang mich wieder auf Mach was du willst. An das Meer An das Meer An das Meer

1=2! Wenn du die Augen öffnest siehst du die Fassade bleib doch mal stehen, wenn sie dir nicht gefällt schau sie dir ganz genau an und warte Irgendwann scheint die Sonne darauf sie strahlt Laß deinen Drachen fliegen und glaube mir eins ist zwei, denn nichts ist eins Laß dein Boot treiben und glaube mir eins ist zwei, denn nichts ist eins Öffne das Fenster und laß das Licht rein die Schatten die sich bilden siehst du? Berühre mit deinen Fingern und du spürst den Mantel das Innere gut behütet, versteckt aus Angst Laß deinen Drachen fliegen und glaube mir eins ist zwei, denn nichts ist eins Laß dein Boot treiben und glaube mir eins ist zwei, denn nichts ist eins
