He's never been arrested once In his life
Never received a letter from the law quite insane Never felt the demon riding his back He is safe from harm Never got hallucinations after Being too long on the booze Logical thinking Turns to Stupidity Never had longer relations With the female sex Never been quite all alone Poor little boy Never had suicidal thoughts Never quite understood The true meaning of the word life 02. Wonderful World
Cloudless sky is in my eyes
The sun has come out for air My dog is sitting by my side Watching me getting high What a wonderful world Looking with inner eyes What a wonderful world Nothing ever dies Can you feel the taste of life Or are you blinded by the clowns? Shake the water and feed the sun Oil the universal joint 03. Sedated
Sedated every night
I had my wine and my joints A couple of sleeping pills Tears of tiredness dripping down But after a while I began to lose my song After a while It wasn't fun no more Sedated when morning comes Sitting with a troubled head Sedated but the sun don't shine Await my suicide 04. Angel Of Betrayal
She shone like the sun in those days
Whispered things into my head Now I lie cold in my cell Kissing pills to keep me sane Angel of betrayal Nowadays I like to meditate With a couple of drinks Sitting on my sofa Watching a dumb TV Gin and Tonic rules Blood on the floor Burn marks from cigarettes My throat pleads for more I tried to put my tongue into the cave I prayed that I was insured I tried to put my tongue into the cave But she led my mind astray Angel of betrayal I ought to kill the bitch To clean out of my head Letting off some steam If you know what I mean Gin and Tonic rules Blood on the floor Burn marks and everything Her soul leaves for home 05. Blessed
Loaded as the sun above
I dig myself Drinking washes the gray away It kisses my brain Smoking makes me catch my breath I feel alive Now I feel my inner self Incarnation of Christ Now the lungs of the universe Are the lungs of my soul I can feel it I can sense it Hallelujah Bless my soul Monday morning you enter hell Not me I'm not a fool, no I'm not a whore Haven't sold my soul Monday morning I open a beer And light a cigar Put my pen to paper and write I hate you all 06. Per Aspera Ad Astra
Looking up from an icy spot
Praying for the re-birth of the sun If everything would explode Would you breathe in or out? Bring me a dog or a loaded gun I'm fed up with all the people around Most of them are to me Like crisp breadcrumbs in my bed And all I can say to you Is to fly with the riddle To touch the moon All I can say to you is try! Passive thinking, stuck in the game Souls hide in infected cells If everything would explode Would they breathe in or out? Stranded, deep in civilisation People I thought were like myself Have turned into what we all once said We hated so much And all I can say to you Is that fly with the riddle To touch the moon All I can say to you is try 07. Save Your Soul
Let me sing for pleasure
Let me drink my treasure Up to the mountain of faith Hit me again While you kiss your left brain You oppress you right brain Ice-pops up in your arse You run with the flock Our presence is a saga A shore beyond The horizon Save Your Soul When I read Bukowski And when I read Martinus I feel magic in my soul Boiling me warm Do you dream of freedom? Or do the demons tell you? There is nothing you can loose If you run with the flock I'm too cool To be a fool 08. Until The Morning
Don't know where I'm going
Don't know where I've been I'm back in the hazy woods I hear the mountains bark Until the morning comes I'll rest my head in my arms Until the morning line I stay awake I see no point in Staying sane I sell my days to keep My demons in control I'm galloping towards death I'm not apologising, not begging When you reach knowledge You will understand 09. Escaping The Fools
He took me away
He showed me a way The rivers where running too slow The wizard said "This is your name Eternal Gladiator, my friend" Higher and higher and higher I fly Escaping the circles of clowns With magic wisdom With magic eyes I'm eating the stars and the Moons I'm going home And guess what? I'm not dead Yes, I'm going home Freedom is the name of my soul Faster and faster and faster I speed I'm beating the light With my eyes I find thousands of universes Inside every single atom 10. On Dark Rivers
On dark rivers we float
Never to meet the releasing sea Our souls hide Deep inside our bodies We got to feed our dreams Nurse our dreams Sounds of words that are spoken Merely flirting with the truth But we never find it Never can we put the finger on it Under a bad moon We try to figure out Which way to fall In this masquerading boat You've got to wonder Why most of us Choose to stay 11. The Goddess
Said she's from another world
I said, "I know what you mean" I gave her a little more red wine Our dreams came up for air Messengers from beyond Future plans and history I caught a little cloud My semen took off Yeah Baby! You make me high, make me fly Make me king of life You shake the earth, shake the dirt And we dance into the sun Sacred words appear Questions solved and we are gods The goddess is for real 12. Mantra
I've been down so long
Nothing ever changes No matter how much I try Got neighbours in my head They're constantly arguing About each step I take My hands move like rattlesnakes And my fingers fumble Like they've just been invented I bleed through the faking truth I don't understand All you fools I keep drinking wine Alone in the dark You know the last drink Is always the saddest I have enough pills To take me home 'Cos this neighbour's song is doing it too slow 13. Let The Magic
Talk Into the blind zone - hiding
Cold as the moon now - freezing We live in the shadows - with blindfolds We die in the shadows - regretting We didn't take the chance Into the blind zone - bleeding Cold as the moon now - we are freezing While fire burns away Take a trip into your magic soul You'll find you've lived a thousand times Let the magic talk and ride away With no feeling of doubt into the sun Gaze into the centre of yourself Left brain people never find this path They stand there wondering How anyone can be so naive To search within Over and over Breathe magic rhythm Gaze into the centre of your dream Fell the magic rhythm take you away Let the magic talk and ride away With no feeling of doubt into the sun Over and over Breathe magic rhythm Over and over Let the magic talk |
