see eleven |
of all the countless ways ... god shows himself ... you never chose one
all along your path ... you realized ... they’re countless after all
(one, two) ... count on me ... (three, four, five) ... if there’s no sign to see ... (six, seven) be sure ... they’ll show up at night ... (eight, nine, ten) ... when the sun’s gone ... you will see eleven ... (eleven)
you shall be the last ... to walk in his ways ... he always knew that
every snare you built ... shall bring him down ... and nothing you can change
(one, two) ... count on me ... (three, four, five) ... if there’s no sign to see ... (six, seven) be sure ... they’ll show up at night ... (eight, nine, ten) ... when the sun’s gone ... you will see eleven ... (eleven)
see eleven ... see eleven
i wonder if he turned on him this way ... if he knew about the betrayal ... i wish just that he had one more try ... just one more try ... one more
would he turn on him the same way ... if he knew about the betrayal ... i wish he had just one more try

change |
cold winter morning ... ice raining down on me ... blue stream is the witness ... of the ones we used to be
and our longings freeze ... to hills we will never climb ... no safety rope to guarantee ... your mind won’t change through time
free fall to nowhere ... your face feels wrong to me ... you don't even remember ... what i try to heal for years
fear came from within ... steel to break the shell ... a cross made, an eternal sign ... for love within a crime
and i swear i would ... do it all again ... one man’s will may make a change ... but not as far as time and waiting will

when the water bows |
time loses shape now ... while my heart is dreaming you ... nothing’s in place now ... deranged by the fading sight of you
will you come back ... shadowed with a sigh
dried fluids of sadness ... when the water bows to the moon ... and only the sun knows the answer ... as the ebbtide turns
will you come back ... just in sight of the high tides
time loses shape now ... while my heart is dreaming you ... nothing reminds me ... of the flood that once was you
will you come back ... when the water bows

running out of time |
it ain’t real ... whatever you do you’re running out of time ... all that is you is gone ... swim on the ground you use to walk ... in the shape of a waterdog ... ‘cause what you believe is true
don’t swim out to sea ... the waves can pull you out into the open blue ... this ain’t a safe enough place ... your ship won’t bring you back to beach ... going ashore through a swirl
wait for yourself ... one day you will be together ... one on one
wait for yourself ... one day you will be together ... one on one
you should slow down ... paint this moment on your canvas ... choose colours to remain, drying, preserving just one day ... 'cause you’ll run out of time
-solo-
wait for yourself ... one day you will be together ... one on one
wait for yourself ... one day you will be together ... one on one
it's for real ... whatever you do you’re running out of time ... when every second's gone ... before you're finished on the last ... there’s no way to bring them back ... ‘cause what you believe is true
you could slow down ... paint this moment on your canvas ... choose colours to remain, drying, preserving just one day ... 'cause you’ll run out of time one day

darkness |
night after night ... calling out for the same ... darkness
breeding sub ordinary forms of a candle ... as the darkness falls around of me ... while my eyes are gaining ground ... this tired mind will never see ... oh, is there something?
night after night ... calling out for the same ... this side of the dark ... may be the side of my blame
i’ll be fighting my way ... no matter of the shadows that lay beyond ... nothing even echoes my calls ... as the darkness will fall around of me
dreaming of the foreman ... he comes in a whisper ... and the world around me is drowning in light ... blinded by his eyes ... my pure mind is left for me to see
night after night ... calling out for the same ... this side of the dark ... may be the side of my blame
i’ll be fighting my way ... no matter of the shadows that lay beyond ... nothing even echoes my calls ... as the darkness will fall around of me
breeding sub ordinary forms of a candle ...
as the darkness falls around of me ... while my eyes got closed and grey ... this old mind has learned to see ... there is something ... .?

what a night |
| what a night this is ... as all the colours of the day ... melt into a soil that’s giving birth to you
in this night i felt ... i need to rearrange my world if i’m open with you ... and i ask myself
would i have gone on with my life for so long ... until the evening had come? ... then my eyes turned numb ... with inner sight ... i await to see the world without a light ... just reflexions of the stars in the shape of no one ... cause no one’s there who’s shining strong enough but you
i didn’t know that all my doubts were guiding lights ... (all my doubts were guiding lights to bring my soul to you) ... you came right into my life as i decided ... (into my life as i decided) ... to change my point of view
trust no one who says ... this life is meant to rest in one’s embrace ... it’s not like that
what a night this is ... as you committed yourself (to this love) ... no matter what it will mean for you
from this night on i’ll be ... receiving all the goods and bads and fears ... it needs to pave the way i shall go with you
so why did i go on with my life for so long ... as my mind turned numb ... with inner sight ... i await to see this world without a light ... just reflexions of the stars ... cause no one’s there who’s shining strong enough ... no one but you, no one but you
i didn’t know that all my doubts were guiding lights ... (all my doubts were guiding lights to bring my soul to you) ... and you, you came right into my life as i decided ... (into my life as i decided) ... to change my point of view
trust no one who says ... this life is meant to rest in one’s embrace ... it’s not like that
what a night this was ... the night we’re falling in love ... the night that’s giving birth to us

they only come out at night |
working day from 9 to 5 ... she loves her job but when she’s done as the evening comes ... she’s alive ... she shed her skin to let her dreams survive ... they only come out at night ... they come out at night
and in her dreams ... surrounded by the stars ... playing superguitarherostyle ... she only plays it loud and out at night
here they’re again ... they're yellin' for their rights ... the ghosts of our unlived lives ... they only coming out at night
oh, keep on yelling ... they’re yellin’, yellin’
played it all, he rocked the stage ... he knows how it feels when after all these shows ... nothing's left ... but the silence in his motel room ... and no one's there to share ... only one honest thought
and his father always said: ... get a good job to make your old man proud
and he hears his mother's words: ... get a good wife, two kids and settle down
and in his dreams ... he's working 9 to 5 ...
living a supernormdisney life
they only come out at night ... they will come out at night

sooner |
i could have saved time and walk ... but i never touch the ground far from home ... as you replaced my fears with hope ... i crossed the path of yours; thank the lord
though you were coming closer ... i refused, cause i wasn't strong enough to believe ... belief is the key to fit in all doors we don't see ... we're not able to see with these eyes ... deranged ... with smiles ... as faint ... as my love
is chained to the shame ... i felt as you gave back ... the love that i've given ... wish i'd met you sooner
i ran into a dilettantes self ... i slid under your shield as the borderline me ... i trust no word i say and no one else ... a face that i once wore, lost its wealth
and now, it's all over ... you are gone and i have to stay here alone ... with all that reminds me of what i’m here for ... in this world ... and space ... and time ... and life ... i try to hold on ... i'm wandering, i'm searching ... and i'm waiting wistful ... wish i'd met you sooner
seems like my time’s standing still ... it's hard but i find myself believing ... "expect this space never to be filled!"
i float into a sense of relief ... so why should i tremble ... if that's all, that i've got to lose the ones i love ... so that i've got to keep up with this life and be aware ... of my soul ... a trial ... i conquer
while i fade, i hold on ... i'm wandering, i'm searching ... and i'm waiting wistful ... wish i'd met you sooner

wheather |
all of the time i remember ... i tried and learned to trust and wait ... even if i try to stop or say goodbye ... the clouds keep moving on ... we will feel safe ... only when we know ... it will rain or snow ... or where the wind will blow
heavy weather ... there’s no way for me to
control it ... the storm will come ... and i will be bent on to get along ... cause he decides
and i shall follow ... seems that without will there's no sorrow ... the rain will come ... to wash away the trace where i have walked ... all that he gives ... i’ll take it
how should i know ... if i'm right or wrong ... or how much my decisions weigh ... i just have blurry ideas of what i feel and what i see and hear ... let the helm go ... i let my boat sail ... though the sight’s not clear ... i know that he will steer
heavy weather ... there’s no way for me to
control it ... the storm will come ... and i will be bent on to get along ... cause he decides
and i shall follow ... there's no sorrow ... the rain will come ... to wash away the trace ... all that he gives ... i’ll take it

just do it |
just do it“ ... you can easily spend your whole time searching ... „just do it“ ... just do it, just do it, just do it
don’t search for the right component ...
to complement the perfect song ... while your intuition shows ... hundreds of solutions
„ambition bites the nails of success“, as someone said ... so don’t let success become a censor of yours and your creativity ... there should always be doubt in every life ... but art should conquer doubt and serve identity
„do it“ ... if you can’t find the perfect line ... „just do it“ ... just play the notes that mirror in your head ... „do it“ ... even if they feel so simple to you ... „just do it“ ... they will be the right ones instead
idols and awards ... let them go ... the tunes you play compete with truth ... and should come from your deepest soul
„do it“ ... your deepest soul ... oh, your deepest soul ... „just do it“ ... your deepest soul ... „do it“ ... just do it, just do it, just do it ... „just do it“
-solo-
and i keep trying ... to find a line ... with the perfect rhyme ... there’s no chance to rewind ... as i sing absolutely blind ... for logical mind ... and my intuition shows up to find ... a clear sign for the sound of mine ... just right in time ... yeah, i do it
