Travelling

Air conditioning freezes my blood and gives me headache
just as memories freeze my thoughts, so I cannot concentrate
I cannot concentrate
I get company from the landscape, I get comfort from a girl
when I'll die I'll feel the same: the weight lays on those who stay
...it lays on those who stay
and it moves around on wheels or tracks
and you let yourself be led
and everything seems consistent,
no cares for what's ahead...it's meaningless
All I see is interaction, footprints left everywhere
cannot recognize vision or mission, but somehow we love each other
how do we love each other?
There's some kind of poetry in any goodbye,
may you do it quick or slowly, there will never be enough time
there'll never be enough time
Your heart bruises too easily
and you apply band aids too soon
your feelings change so quickly
and you cover dust under the carpet

Please don't ask me for something I cannot give to you
'cause tonight I'm just heading for a good drinkin' & puke
I love myself more than I love you
I make mistakes everyday, it's a burde that I can't give away, but
as it's written in my D.N.A. I'll keep on mistaking again
I love myself more than I love you
Mars is shining bright tonight, he's so close I may need my dark glasses
He's so close I touch his light, his dust gets scattered by
I think 'bout myself more than I think about you
Mars is talking loud tonight, his vanity reflects on the see
he's so drunk he can't even fight, he's asking venus to let him be

Self Assertive

I was kickin' all around my poor self from north to south
'till I suddenly got drowned, just as sometimes it happens to be
...like, now
so it's good to embrace the silence and send your mind abroad
every minute I'm getting wiser, but this doesn't enlighten the road
with a pencil and my six-strings I am tracing my geography
but the four winds have turned upside and down
I even forgot where to go
so I'm waiting for a clue, a sign by which I could decide
should I stay or leave, or sort of both?
now I doubt the decision is mine
...for example I can't figure out why and how you could...
did I miss some detail, or was our love a lie?
did I fuck up, did I somehow turn off the light?
no it's not my fault, but maybe I'm just wrong...
I'm convinced it's my turn to roll the dice in this sick adult game
but I must have been distracted,
maybe I simplier got lost in the way
I left pebbles at every mile I walked across the path I rode
but the wind just blew too hard...
... I turn and I can't find back the road
In this moment I can't figure out when and where to go
the neighborhood's dimming, I smoke under the porch
though I wasn't born here, still it feels like home
...maybe I'm just wrong, but it feels like I'm gone...
Now I sit self contemplative and self assertive
convince me there's nothing negative.

Vor dem Krieg

Ich war jung, ich war froh
ich und meine Liebe wir waren frei
meine Arbeit es war leicht,
meine Gitarre hatte ich immer dabei
Wie konnte ich, wie konnte ich ahnen
Alles wuerde sich aendern?
unser besser Freund war das Glueck
ad Abend zum Morgen rauchten wir Grass
wenn die Engeln singen, wir fuehlen uns sicher
aber wir wussten nicht sie weinten auch
Wie konnte ich, wie konnte ich ahnen
Alles wuerde sich aendern?
Es war vor dem Krieg
Leute denken, dass wir die Richtigen sind,
"Gott mit uns" hoerst du, dass sie singen
aber sie lachen nur vor dem Krieg
es war vor dem Krieg

Strandhaus song

I took a long walk on the beach last night,
It always used to quiet me down
I am now feeling too complicated,
so I tried to question the stars above
Instead of getting answers, I became more uncomfortable…
If every cigarette is a step towards death
I made a few giant leaps last night...
And though we think the time we have to live is short,
today it seems as it’s much too long to wait until it ends…
today I wish I were 77!
How can you stand me? Sometimes I can’t even stand myself;
Our time is the sand that slips from my hand
Please save our love from me and from my need to be free,
Cause it’s just an illusion…as we all can see
You are so far away from me now and I enjoy my lovely loneliness
But being alone it gives me time to think too much
about a sense, and the danger we are for the planet
Are we a sort of virus? Or maybe a microscopic tumor?
They say we have to choose to believe in Darwin or God
But can’t you understand? We ain’t suppose to comprehend.
Life's in and Life is out of us, so just live your dream,
Death is just a personal conclusion…the rest will never end
