I gave you shelter and warmth You made me lucky and proud We dance to the purple morning cloud We stand together I take a breath to find to myself I´m looking back to clear my head Even then , I see the future with you ahead Our love will survive Even after dead And when the day is, that we knock on that door I mean on heaven´s door, not any door We are so happy and we raise our fist We can´t wait to die, cause there is nothing left on the list I don´t want a second life without you my dear

Hetzparolen hab ich satt Es findet stumpfe Botschaft statt Nicht hinterfragt, nicht nachgehakt geliked, geteilt, nicht nachgedacht. Hab keine Angst Dich zu blamier´n Hab keine Angst es zu riskier´n Mach´s Maul auf, wenn Dir da nach ist Schau nicht weg. Mach´s Dir zur Pflicht Der Wahnsinn tobt um uns herum doch nichts passiert, wir bleiben stumm Doch so läuft es nicht, wenn man wegschaut Steh´jetzt auf und mach dich laut Ein brauner Ostwind stinkend fad Ein Pilz am Fuß, das fünfte Rad Wie die Mauer vor Mexiko so überflüssig bist auch Du. Die Welt zerbricht, Du merkst es nicht, siehst nicht der Wahrheit ins Gesicht Du hasst, Du dizzt, Du sabotierst Die Wahrheit ist, dass Du verlierst. Der Wahnsinn tobt um uns herum doch nichts passiert, wir bleiben stumm Doch so läuft es nicht, wenn man wegschaut Steh´jetzt auf und mach dich laut Mach Dich laut Du kannst das auch Mach Dich laut Der Wahnsinn tobt um uns herum doch nichts passiert, wir bleiben stumm Doch so läuft es nicht, wenn man wegschaut Steh´jetzt auf und mach dich laut

Everything with you and me is hopeless Our love has stopped the progress For years and years I just can see no harmony I don´t know what you expect from me Our memories are grey I don´t want you here to stay with me You can´t light my fire I can´t light your fire There is no desire
4.
I free my mind This life is mad I clear my head I don´t have patience for this conversation I´m not insane to start again No I´m not insane I´ll search my own way Here´s not the place to stay You got it I´m leaving I have no words to discripe but once we meet, we will collide You call me once You call me twice I won´t reply Cause there´s no reason. There is nothing to say Fight!

You´re longing for something That will never be found Still longing for something That keeps you bound

We don´t feel the pain We are not ashame For 1000´s of people leaving their home Some lost their child in the ruins of their town. We don´t feel the pain We are not ashame For 1000´s of people who felt off the boat The last hope to escape was even better than granades The last hope to escape is better than granades It´s a social, human disgrace To close borders instead to embrace A fake teardrop drips from our face We wash off the blood on our hands But it´s coming back We don´t hear the scream It´s someone else to blame for victims of war and cruelty Political madness in media is what we see We don´t hear the scream It´s someone else to blame for young dying men standing in flames We´ve got the idea what it means to fear We´ve got the idea but we shed no tear

It was a cloudless summerday I hung around with friends We were sitting in our bay thought that it never ends Dipping our feet into the river The beer is warm we´re hanging on Might be the last night of that summer The smell of weed, we kissed our lover Hey! Do you remember? We dig theese times it is forever. So much has changed. We are rearranged We´ve lost the sense of time And watched the stars so bright We sing our favorite songs We know, we make it through the night It´s almost 4 am A bonfire holds us warm The nightclub is not for us. We strum the strings. This DJ sound is nuts

I ask myself from time to time, Is this all I get from this life? Do I expect too much? It freaks me out but I´m not ashame The time has changed and we did ,too. Take my advice. Follow your heart and do what you want. Hop on that sugar-train and stay on the track. So many unresolved tasks. Don´t struggle with them, just do what you can do. Time won´t stop for you. Find a compromise. Time won´t stop for you. Enjoy your life. Stop to supress your emotions and shout it out. Lett off steam, bring it on. There is no doubt. You´re like an ant jammed into the crowd. Make up your mind before you hit the ground. And then you wake up with hope, the situation now is not the same. But then you recognize, you´re wrong. It´s all wrong. We are fenced like grazing sheep. Faced to the ground and afraid of the hound. Tell me, who is that brave to leave our cave. Tell me, who is that brave to feel unsave.
