Ruins
01:22

Sometimes I feel like
The man on the moon
I look down at you
Headshaking
Feeling bad
When I'm looking at you
Say what shall we do
About that
Had enough about
Staying in tune
When we stand upon ruins
Divided
What's the use
What is wrong
What is true
Well I changed my view

Space & Time [Part 1-4]
07:56
|
|||
|
I ignored all your signals
I ignored all your signs
I ignored all the spaces in between
I'm ready for that trip thru space and time
I get bored by your tries
I get bored by all your lies
A summary of all that's wrong
Makes me go slightly mad
Let's skip that crap
Yeah you just waste my time
When will I get there

Garage
03:10
|

|
By the way I gotta mention
Cos it all went wrong again
I'm quite happy where I'm at
I'm quite happy with what I got
But I know just where we could be
If we all pull as one
But we don't
No we don't
When I dare a little look back
It seems I am cursed
Because it always been like that
Has it always been like that?
And I try to keep it simple
And okay with me
But it ain't
No it ain't
So let's get back to the garage
Where I feel home
I never thought it would be easy
But it seems like
I have to do it all alone
I have to do it all alone
I have to do it all alone
I have to do it all alone
If the ever was a difference
Tell me date and place
It seems it always been like that
Seems it always been like that
But I hang on and continue
Thou anybody cares
Does anybody care
Is anybody there
Is anybody out there

Forgotten Place
05:33
|
|||
|
I want to go to the forgotten place
I hope nobody follows me to there
You need to know the signs
To find that secret trails
I want to go to the forgotten place
I want to go to the forgotten place
I hope nobody follows me to there
If you ignore the signs
You'll lose yourself in there
So I want to go to the forgotten place
Follow me down to the forgotten place
I don't care if anybody cares
A Place nobody knows
Doesn't mean does not exist
Follow me down to the forgotten place

Call It What You Will
03:24
|
|||
|
Who am I to decide
What you have to do or leave
Who would be so cruel to disturb
Someone else's peace
You take all that you can
Then take all that you need
Care for what you keep inside
An inner summerbreeze
It's all along this tragedy
When will you ever learn
Someday you will wake alone and wonder
Where did it all went wrong
What's the use of nations
When you're longing to be free
Call it what you want
Call it what you will
I will not decide for you
Either the red or blue pill
Allthough it really drives me mad
To watch you struggle on
Remember what you came here for
It's all along this tragedy
When will you ever learn
Someday you will wake alone and wonder
Where did it all went wrong

It's Gone
04:00
|
|||
|
Why should I bother
I knew it all along
I dare to look
at first it's there
And then it's gone
What does it matter
I guess I'm not that different from everyone else
Even if I hold on
Once it was there
Seems it is gone
And yes it's gone
And it's forever
But does it really matter
It just happens all the time
And if it's gone will I feel better
No secrets to these four letters
Cos it happens all the time
And I guess I just feel fine
Yes it's gone
And it's forever
But does it really matter
It just happens all the time
And if it's gone will I feel better
No secrets to these four letters
Cos it happens all the time
Where is the difference
What will I become
Sometimes I care
But then I look
And then it's gone
Sometimes I care
But then I look
And then it's gone
Sometimes I care
But then I look
And then it's gone
Sometimes I care
But then I look
And then it's gone
It doesn't matter where I go
Where I come from
It doesn't matter
Cos we'll end up all alone
And then I turn
And then I look
Expect it's gone

Eye To Eye
02:09

So glad to see you again
It's been such a long time
My friend
And it's nice to see you've grown
On the inside
Yes I knew all along
What you were hiding all this time
It doesn't matter right now
What has been has been
It's done so come on
It's time to move on
So tell me what is going on the inside
Cos I waited here for you
At the gates to the outside
And now we're eye to eye
We know the reasons why
Oh I was longing so hard
To have you back with me
From time to time
We slip out of that line again
I know
Cos we've grown
Time to time
Eye to eye
Time to time
Eye to eye
Time to time
Eye to eye
Time to time
Eye to eye

Not That I'd Known
03:36
|
|||
|
It's you who have brought me here
And left me with no devices
That's kind of bold my dear
You left me on my own
All that I know is I'll grow
On each advertise but
Did I ask you to
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
So do what you gotta do
Say what you have to say now
The air is thiner yet
I fear we've gone astray
Take what you have to take
I feel it's getting closer
Thou we never been that far
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known
Not that I'd known

And when all is lost
And everyone is gone
And left these places empty
And the last deal is done
And you drive out of town
To the frame of the city
Let's take the sideways
And just drive along
Yeah it's out of hand
But yeah I can imagine
What it must have been like
Many years ago
And these walls have gone grey
And the roof has got a hole in
You just locked the door and
Left with no look back
And now all is lost
And everyone is gone
And left these places empty
And the last deal is done
And you drive out of town
To the frame of the city
Let's take the sideways
And just drive along
And I fell in love
I fell in love with the decay
I fell in love
I fell in love with the decay
Of the infrastructure
And yet all is lost
And everone's gone
You just locked the door and
Left with no look back

Rocket
03:47
|
|||
|
I built myself a rocket
To get out of here
I don't know where it takes me
I'm sure it's better there
Cos I can't stand you treat this world
Like you don't care
Yes I am in a minor
Cruising right thru strathosphere
On my way out of here
I took all that I need
I'm glad it wasn't much
Fuck your material world
Fuck your money
Fuck your pride
I'm leaving right to somewhere
It's quite out of touch
And I don't know when I get there
Just take me right to somewhere
A place right out of here
To anywhere
Get out of here
Get out of here
I got no fear
I built myself a rocket
To get out of here
I don't know where it takes me
I'm sure it's better there
Cos I can't stand you treat this world
Like you don't care
Yes I am in a minor
Cruising right thru strathosphere

Wondering what if I
Keeping the surprise
A secret that I hide
From all that's new
Got no alibies
But I ain't telling lies
A secret you can trust
I hope you do
No one'd ever know
You keep smiling
Searching for the truth
Is opening the view
But the more we learn
It makes us sick
You know what to do
So I trust in you
And dear there is a need
To act real quick
No one'd ever know
You keep smiling
Makes you smile
No one'd ever know
You keep smiling
Makes you smile
For al little while
No one'd ever know
You keep smiling
Makes you smile
For al little while
Please just get along
Please just get along
Please just get along
Please just get along
I am not like you
So what is to do
Why can't we all just get along

I'm Not Acting Anymore
02:22
|
|||
|
I wanna climb up in a tree
I wanna run as fast as my feet
Let slip the road right under me
I wanna give my personal max speed
I wanna scream my lungs all out
Where ever I'm right now at
I wanna jump
I wanna dance
I wanna fall into romance
I wanna travel round the globe
I wanna do it all alone
I wanna open all that doors
But I'm not acting anymore
I'm not acting anymore
I wanna learn the grand piano
And a new language that I don't know
I wanna do what is a no go
I want my friends to be there also
I wanna lose all that I have
Just come along and take the rest
At least remember what I burn for
But I'm not acting anymore
I'm not acting anymore
I wanna quit to smoke that cigarette
I wanna breathe the clean air instead
I wanna leave if you don't care
I wanna see what is not there
I want to get out of my cage
So kick the band
Let's get on stage
Oh well the audience is bored
Fuck I'm not acting anymore
I'm not acting anymore
I wanna use the tool and create
I wanna try before it's too late
I wanna lose all my control
Please would you answer when I call
I wanna get out of the city
I wanna figure out what could be
I wanna break an every law
But I'm not acting anymore
I'm not acting anymore
I wanna see the sunset burning
I wanna get to where I'm yearning
Open the door cos I want out
Get off that dumb marry-go-round
I wanna tell the world the reason
I wanna meet the lords and please them
To make an end to all that wars
But I'm not acting anymore
I'm not acting anymore
I wanna score an every day
None of my sorrows cause me pain
I wanna lose all of my doubts
Be like a child and freak all out
I wanna kiss all tears goodbye
And welcome you to make me cry
For I will love you even more
When I'm not acting anymore
I'm not acting anymore

As If
04:36

All of that sorrows that have come
Couldn't rest here very long
Even you and I move on
All that has been and what's to come
Never felt like it belong
To the people we have been before
And I wonder where you been
And I wonder where I've been
And what it's all about
And I'd like to hear you sing
As if anybody listens
As if you were all alone
It doesn't matter right now
What has been has been
It's done so come on
It's time to move on
So tell me what is going on the inside
Cos I've waited here for you
Yes I've waited all along
And I wonder where you been
And I wonder where I've been
And what it's all about
And I'd like to hear you sing
As if anybody listens
As if you were all alone
And I wonder where you been
And I wonder where I've been
And what it's all about
And I'd like to hear you sing
As if anybody listens
As if you were all alone
And I wonder where we've been
And I wonder where we've been
And I wonder where we've been
And I wonder where we've been
And I wonder where we've been
And what it's all about
And what it's all about
And what it's all about

Thanx I'm Off
04:25
|
|||
|
Everybody's low
Everyone is dumb
Me, I'm also not quite by myself
It's funny how the tables turn
Each time I look again
It's not that hard to understand
But yes I know what's up
And what it's been before
And i don't like to stuck here anymore
At least I try
Then just look at
It's easy pointing fingers at
Cos you didn't care before
Or payed attention anyhow
Of things that I really adore
That's why I say
Thanx I'm off
Oh well you didn't care before
Why should you care about right now
And now I'm halfway out that door
Oh yeah I say
Thanx I'm off
Thanx I'm off
And from below as from above
It feels like simulated love
Oh yeah just leave your blindfolds on
Cos I say
Thanx I'm off
Cos you didn't care before
Why should you care about right now
From the depths of my inner core
Oh yeah I say
Thanx I'm off
Thanx I'm off
