get dressed to be undressed
i still taste the wine
slowly sinking in lucid dreaming
i will close my eyes and fall deep deep
down down down -
no ego `till he does so
he goes slow and I go low
played that game before
like it was no game before
Lost Boys
getting lost
rejoin
lost choice
taken for lost boys
tie up my hair
trying to be fair
let it down
waisting my breath
lines do not overlap
cryptic talking
won’t tell me nothing
will I still be your friend
when the war is over
Lost Boys
getting lost
rejoin
lost choice
taken for lost boys
He lays down
we don’t go slow
clothes off
sorry I can’t take your touch
switch me off
I don’t want to feel stuff
turn me on
I play it down down down
Lost Boys
getting lost
rejoin
lost choice
taken for lost boys
following the monsters of his mind
I have coffee and he has time
I know he is hiding
he can not stop lying
giving me new reasons
I’m so bad at leaving

the planet's average surface temperature has risen,
-high and higher and higher and higher-
a change driven largely by increased carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere.
and by other human activities.
which leads to here:
increasing ocean heat, global sea level, humidity,
temperature here and in the lower atmosphere.
intense drought, wildfires.
they were going to ignore it.
species evolved - species extinct
we killed our crew- now flipper is dead.
how?
what do you think?
-overconsumption. - nets with a function.
they were going to ignore it.
air quality - Negativity-
caused by human activity -
scarier than a clown movie.
but one more round:
when you look up, see the cloud,
watch it, watch out,
it might contain acid rain
accumulating in water bodies
they were going to ignore it.
we fill our future up with plastic and drown it in glyphosate to create trash towns.
remove all the wood
-more and more and more-
so we could
make way for humans - that makes more humans:
„see the problem?“
they were going to ignore it:
the unforgiving force of this mother - we better treat her well

Scorched Earth
02:57

snowflakes falling
it’s 80 degrees
softly walking
over burned ease
swimming in the icy sea
holding hands -
hear „the white paws plea“
come take my hand
they warned us
now it’s an empty land
please don’t worry
it’s over
only you only me
it’s the end of the world
on that black hill
we can settle now
lay down,
feathers on oily ground
silence speaking
no sirens around
off the radar
we can’t be found
come take my hand
nothing to find
we leave scorched earth behind
please don’t worry
it’s over
only you only me
it’s the end of the world

Euphoria
03:12
|

empty land
now the flood is over taken
heals the cracks
of the ground
- a taste of perfection
new born life
is waiting at the shore
laying off the fears
they’re not useful anymore
like broken flowers in the meadow
spread across a loving land
taking new chances to grow
now covering their land
like broken flowers in the meadow
spread across a loving hand
taking new chances to grow
with new love in their hands
now covering their land
returning entire from the shadows
never fall silent again
awakening light
leads us to believe
oceans wide
raising hopes
of forgotten dreams.

so right, hold on tight
cause I know what it’s like
to be lonely at night
alright no need to hide,
I feel like I’m high on life
down for the ride
Oh looking different now, looking different
I know, I’ve been here before
maybe before
I was even born
in and out of love for a while
mile after mile
scratched but a smile
Oh looking different now, looking different now
(Oh) Alright, i will be just fine
(Oh) Alright, I will be just fine
(Oh) Alright, I will be just fine
(Oh) Alright, I will be just fine
sitting `round the table with my past
talking to the old ghosts of my heart
bittersweet memories
save them as melodies
I won’t leave me
but I’m still learning
how to believe me
acting like
25
when I was still a child
Oh looking different now, looking different now
On my own
never the same just let it go
no need to cry cause i know
i will be fine on my own
never the same just let it go
i know it’s hard on your own
but I will be be fine

Dark Matter
04:23
|

|
like particles
we found our way
almost magnetic
why didn’t you make me stay?
petrichor scattered
all over the place
found each other
invisible lost in the maze
enlivens me, caresses me
moving in forgotten galaxies
discovering only fractions
of unknown realties
unexplained motions of the stars
we dance on
there’s a heaven
there’s a hell (of you and me)
holding each universe
with so much unseen.
some other place
some other time for us to be
back then, loneliness
was the answer to gravity.

Where the restless Ocean
05:13
|
|||
|
creatures of habit
move within me
all my longings and my senses
i wish to synchronize them
creatures of habit
all of them live within me
longing for guidance
taking directions
yet I can’t see
let me drown
I need to breathe again
let the flood
take over me to come to life again
how to set the sails
if you can’t steer the wind
and how to sail this sea
and still be true to me
close to the edge
but didn’t jump into the sea
where the restless ocean waits for me
where it’s quiet
where it’s loud.

Wild is the Wind
02:46
|
|||
|
love me, love me, love me,
love me, say you do
let me fly away with you
for my love is like the wind
and wild is the wind
give me more than one caress
satisfy this hungriness
let the wind blow through your heart
and wild is the wind
you touch me
and I hear the sounds
of mandolins
when you kiss me
with your kiss my life begins
you’re spring to me
all the things to me
don’t you know your life itself
like a leaf clings to a tree
so my darling cling to me
for we’re creatures of the wind
and wild is the wind
wild is the wind.

just turn around
one more time
before
the infinite mess swallowed us up forever
closes around around around around us
just one more time
trying to hold on to something that keeps us alive
just one more time
too proud
just one more time
breathing out

where do you stop
where to begin
I will keep on learning
future was bright
future was burning
I will keep on learning
what do you do when it all comes down
down down
do you just breathe through it?
and turn around
turn around -now what to do
what to do what to do
whats’s the outcome
what’s the outcome

Walk on the Moon
04:24
|

|
oh how strange
it must be
to walk
on the moon
oh how strange
it must feel
to take a hand
that is not yours
carefully landing
my fingers follow the structures
feeling the contours
finding new ways
oh how exciting
seeing stars, seeing us
courageous - exploring lust
rising up like glowing cells
showing new ways
oh how inviting
seeing scars, seeing us
oh how strange
awakening feels
I walk
away from the moon
oh how strange
now I see
down on earth
I lost your hand

Epilogue
02:53
|

|
I know I should go outside
and close the door behind me
but I don’t like the cold
no I don’t like the cold
and it will take so much
take so much time
to leave it all behind
to feel the sun again
feel the sun again on my skin
I don't want to go outside
only trying to chase
what is real, I know the deal
will we fade away
will we fade away
or will we find a way to stay
are some parts of the way enough to grasp a dream
and face it all again
face it all again in innocence
will we fade away
will we fade
