some things lurk beneath the surface they say they feel it deep inside
and the guard dogs they are sleepin’completely satisfied
you know when, where and why
how could I even try
as a dream you’re by my side
you are the love I hide
and I face my clown and I hear him say
let us throw our scores away
all get lost as a fadin’ light
and all we get is a morning sight
a gentle touch, a secret kiss
the moment’s gone and then I miss
to hang and twist above your endless ground I still can hear your fading sound
and I face my clown and I hear him say
let us throw our scores away
all get lost as a fadin’ light
and all we get is a morning sight
I face my clown and I hear him say
let us throw our scores away
all get lost as a fadin’ light
and all we get is a morning sight
black or white high or low
tonight my mind refuses to know
each friend I want to stay
goes round and round and fade away
there is a thought
kind of dark and blue
who can name the fear
between me and you
lights have gone, all got lost somewhere we still wander, we don’t care
my eyes are bleedin’, our hands in the air how could I be so unaware
it never leaves
when I want it to
the old simple play
between me and you
there is no hand
that leads me through
the selfmade gods
between me and you
be mier deheime hangid
vell wälte woni ha met der
s’hät no vell me platz do
doch du besch nömm be mer
täg wärdid weder länger
nor no meh defür ond degäge
nochem winter chonnt de früelig
ech muss mers emmer weder säge
es sitzid all veruss ond
verzellid ehri gschechte
ech chasi doch ned phalte
alls wär kei platz me i mer inne
d’lüt gönd langsam hei
es wird still i de nacht
doch dini wort die bliibed
ich ha si sälber so starch gmacht
doch dini wort di bliibed
ich ha si sälber so starch gmacht
taking thoughts from afar
things get lost in the world we’ve made
my best friend, here you are
did you hear my final call
everywhere, endings, they stare
stare at what I begin
silent crimes, burn them all
keep in colours what we’ve ever done
it’s unspoken – it’s a distance to here
it’s unbroken – the phrase we all want to hear
it’s unspoken – it’s a distance to here
it’s unbroken – the phrase we all want to hear
round and round and round they go the places we all hide
round and round and round it goes the chaos deep inside
round and round and round they go the places we all hide
round and round and round it goes the chaos deep inside
feelin’ the sun on it’s way
if I could I would stay
you just draw a line
and light up the fields, make them mine
you lay our pride aside
all of us want to grow
I feel so safe tonight
monsters fade, am I right
whether I lose or I win
things change anyway in the crowd I’m in
the thoughts I brought up
where never meant to stay
you left me far behind
with promises, made in my mind
a familiar smile, that’s all
nights allow us to fall
remember how to feel
what is fake and what’s real
a familiar smile that’s all
nights allow us to fall
nights allow us to fall
nightmares or treasures time will tell
lend me your morning let me start again
try or lie or fade away
read in the papers what game we play today
give me your places, the promises you made
and you’ll get my notion, a world you’ll fail to save
where we give, who we love, and what we hide
why we fear and what we can, is it part of a masterplan
and you walk in
in my world of endless lines
and you come in
light the corners of my mind
I feel no ground but I feel your skin
a moment of a fall – another way to win
someone’s gonna hold me – someone’s gonna lie
and when we all stop breathing, another morning will know why
and you walk in
in my world of endless lines
and you come in
light the corners of my mind
and you walk in
in a room high and wide
and you stay in
never ever satisfied
never ever satisfied
your scent comes in
some sounds I know
but now it’s just made in, made in mind where are you, are you now
colours where important
yours and also mine
but now it’s just made in, made in mind where are you, are you now
everything is glowing
everyone is growing
why are you now
why are you now
why are you now
long-lost pictures are waiting anywhere
their contours are still there
but now it’s just made in, made in mind where are you, are you now
everything is glowing
everyone is growing
why are you now
why are you now
why are you now
you want to know who I am
what I know and what I can do
I’ve lost myself in a shouting crowd I’ve even left my name behind
right or wrong as a perfect world who knows when and who knows why
I want to see me I want to show
I am the secret I’ll never know
you live in here
as a friend of my mind
as the feats I know
in places I hide
you live in here
in the palm of my hand
in all pictures I save
as the promises I gave
waste and plans, saints and friends no longer here by my side uncertainty the secret weight it shines and spreads bright and wide
you live in here
in the need of a thought
in a letter I receive
in the air I can breathe
in all ways I could choose
if I win or lose
as your friends on the screen
and as the world in between
new world in here
it’s a spin we feel
I lay down my smile
my ground for years
my friend stay with me
in this distant land
they lurk and hurt, they sting
old maps I hold in hand
what has now begun
is just another way we’ve found
another place, another friend
and other lines that begin and end and other lines that begin and end
will you take them back
the things I understand
the little that they free
in someone else’s hand
what has now begun
is just another way we’ve found
another place, another friend
and other lines that begin and end and other lines that begin and end
let us whisper let us sing
take my hand and let us win
let them cry and let them bleed
let them be with all they need
let us cheat and let us hide
open field – warm and wide
let them fear and let them name
all the things that change and stay the same
things get out of hand
let’s get lost in a distant land
let them form up into lines
let them wait for awkward signs
let’s spin round, round that light
fireflies on their nightflight
let us whisper let us sing
take my hand and let us win

di vogu macht us din’re wält
was der ohni vogel fählt
dass der alles möglich esch
wenn’d so läbsch wie’d sälber besch
det chasch so sii eso wied besch
au wenn’s ganz denäbe isch
öb du schilisch oder spennsch
öb du staglisch oder singsch
hesch e vogu säg mer spinnsch
dass du das machsch wo du fendsch s’esch mi vogu das esch klar met däm läbt sich’s wunderbar
mängisch stell ich ihm s’bei
är god wäg lod mech elei
hei, wie esch de alles grau
wäg esch gälb, esch rot, esch blau
hesch e vogu säg mer spinnsch
dass du das machsch wo du fendsch s’esch mi vogu das esch klar met däm läbt sich’s wunderbar
jede seit dir was muesch mache
öb sölsch brüele oder lache
das esch rächt ond das esch schlächt nor was du machsch esch ned rächt!
hesch e vogu säg mer spinnsch
dass du das machsch wo du fendsch s’esch mi vogu das esch klar met däm läbt sich’s wunderbar
