I feel the heat under my skin burning me alive.
Where is my sweet routine?
Like moving mountains I travelt through time and space for thousands of years.
I’m losing my track of those better days.
The scratches of time mark my body from front to back.
My life is slippin’ away and I’ve grown small from all this tears (2x)
As I captured this mystic moment I realized:
No growth will ever come to this place and every breath lets him fade away more and more.

Endure cold seasons. Expecting warm waters. (2x)
With a broken compass in our backs, we swarm out to reach for something more.
Everyone told us to head north but the smell of pines tempts us south.
Obsessed by chasing ghosts, he spread his wings to reach the sun.
Burned like Icarus, he was embraced by cold waters.
With hopes and dreams in our minds, we finally arrived in this so called paradise.
Everyone told us we’ll find peace, but all rivers are dried out to the bone.
Driven by thirst and with a fire in our hearts, we search out for something more.

The Zone

Look at you! Take a close, close look!
Torn apart from the inside and outside.
Come let go!
From everything that holds you.
Come let go of beeing your real self!
Come tell me, could this body lie to you?
No, haha, no you know?
Come please drown me in emptiness.
Thats what I, what I’m used to
Heal me from all This. (2x)
4 A.M. Zoned out and unsatisfied.
Look at you!
There must be more to all this.
Follow me!
Oh I know It’s been a while, let me show you life again.
Come please love me, like noone could ever.
Fulfill myself and give me rest now.

Drifting

Two hands on the wheel, that’s when I feel free. That’s when I feel me.
That’s what outlasts me through every drought.
(Times are changing / people are changing / scenery is changing.)
This ship called life is now moving me through open waters.
And I’m enjoying to loose control and let the good times roll.
I’m drifting threw my life / bumbing on every single edge.
The collisions made me strong / made me who I am.
I never felt the loss of something blinded by monotony.
One fish in my net changed it all and made me sail back to harbour.
(Endless nights at sea are over and I’m driving again with my two hands on the wheel.)
Though I get stuck in traffic now or then, the buildings collapsing on me.
Let there be silence. Let there be nothing. Just nothing at all.
(But my heart and my passion are driving so I’ll keep drifting!)

Overseas

Everyday life’s a trap. Grey walls, Grey minds, Clear skies.
Let’s cross fields, oceans and flow with the tides, babe.
Adventure will be our guide. We’ll be our judge. Never loose that out of sight.
Future will be gold. Coloured walls, bright lights, open minds.
Hey girl, let’s go overseas, where we can forget time and insecurities.
Everyday life is hard. Love’s tested and bonds been thinned.
Let’s make it to new frontiers and ride with the wind, girl.
Rain has watered us to florisch somewhere from Alaska to Cape Horn
Future will be gold, coloured minds, bright skies, open doors.

Lampedusa

Mein Reisepass ist ein grüner Revolver.
Eine Glocke am Körper.
Ich ziehe in ein Land aus der Asche von Mythen.
Weit weg von diesem Himmel aus Abendjasmin.
Ach Möve, versenkt von der sinkenden Sonne.
In dem Gelenk, nistet die Kälte.
Uns zwingt der Sturm in die Knie.
Ach du kleine Heimat.
