Lyrics
Album: Spectators
1. IT'S HURTING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Seven hundred times
I thought of you
A voice of innocence
I hear it calling
I know it's you
Now I realize
That It's just hurting for the first time
I feel it aching
I know it's you
Seven hundred lies
Seven hundred ways
To hide the fact
That I am longing
Longing for you
But now I see it…I feel it…
It seems so right
A trace of light
That I will follow
'Til I reach you
Ich komm´ zu dir
Halt´ deine Hand
Wir gehen gemeinsam durch dies wunderbare Land
Das ich für dich erfand
Mit mathematischem Verstand
Ref.:
Ein Wunder hier
Ein Traum gleich dort
Grad´ noch hier und doch schon fort
Ich zeige dir mein Angesicht
Doch du siehst mich nicht
Ich weiß genau was dir gefällt
Ich schaff dir eine neue Zauberwelt
In der kein Regen fällt
In der nur deine Wahrheit zählt
Ich zeig dir Berge
Zeig dir Seen
Hier brauchst du alles nur mit meinen Augen sehen
Und nicht zu verstehen
Keine Angst du kannst ruhig mit mir gehen
In ein großes All
Ganz für dich allein
Hier kannst du endlich mal du selber sein
Im Neon-Sonnenschein
Fang ich dir deine Wünsche ein
ARTIFICAL WORLDS
I come to you
Holding your hand
Together we go through this marvelous land,
Which I invented for you
With mathematical intellect (mind)
A miracle here
A dream equally there
Was just here and gone now
I show you my face
But you don't see me
I know exactly what you like
I create a new magical world for you,
In which there is no rain
In which only your truth counts
I show you mountains
Show you lakes
Here you only need to see everything with my eyes
And you don't need to understand
Don't be afraid,
You can go with me calmly
Into a huge universe,
Just for you alone
Here you can finally be yourself
In the neon sunshine
I catch your desires for you

(I love this song. A peaceful feeling comes over me when I listen to it. Another song I put on infinite loop. Why don't German songs make it big in Germany?)
When I touch you…feeling your skin
When I touch you…deep within
I'll break your silence on your way to me
I will make you everything you want to be
When I touch you…
You know that you'll love it…you'll
need it…
For sure…
I'm drawing your lines with my hands
I'm weaving the dream that never ends
I don't play hide and seek… with you… dear
When I touch you…
Aiming fingers searching secret pleasures
Roaming where your river seems so deep
You know I'm going on
I like the song you'll sing… for me
When I touch you…
You know that you'll…
And when tension's spilling down your
skin
Love will never be what she once was
When I touch you…
I think of you… like I often do
When I hear the rain…on my window pane
Gently tapping at the flass
Like you gently touching fingers
Just looking for the smil
I give to you
You can feel what no one feels
You can hear what no one hears
Just looking for the smile I give to you
And your darkness speaks and has eyes
to see…
You know me by my voice
But you know so much more then…
"Don't fight the walls…they're here for all!"
Was what you said to me… once
I looked into your eyes
And I knew you were right
You can feel what no one feels…
And your darkness speaks and has eyes
to see…
I know that you can win
This lifelong game we're in
"Hey! Darkness is a state of mind!
I can go where you would stumble!"
Was what you said to me
And I knew you were right
You can feel what no one feels…
It's getting dark… too soon…
a threatening silence…
Surrounding me… a wind comes up from the islands…
Distance fades to stormy gray
Washed out from the deep of the ocean
Here I will stand to face your wrath…
While all the others are praying
Calm down my heart…
Don't beat so fast…
Don't be afraid
Just once in a lifetime
No rain can wash away my tears
No wind can soothe my pain
You made me doubt, you made me fear
But now I'm not the same
You took my wife, my unborn son
Torn into the deep of the ocean
I don't pretend that I love you
'Cause there is nothing left to loose
And when silence comes back to me
I find myself feeling lonely
Standing here on the shores of destiny
I find myself feeling lonely
I had a life to give… many dreams
to live…
Don't you know that you're losing so much this time
Beyond the waves… I will be free
While all the others are praying
Calm down my heart…
The love in you, it does not burn,
There is no lesson you can learn
And there are sounds you cannot hear,
And there are feelings you can't feel
Calm down my heart…
I don't pretend that I love you
And this time I'm not scared of you
(This is one more song I went out of my mind to get! 8) I went nuts waiting for the music video that never came...and I wish my heart would calm down sometimes...)
It started with a feeling
A special kind of feeling
We've lost somehow
Idle thoughts are reeling
I'm longing for your touch
But you don't understand
That it means so much
You leave it up to me
To sleep somehow
The anger that I feel
Must leave somehow
I hear you breathe
I'm waiting
For the morning light
I miss you although I'm lying
Right by your side
You leave it up to me…
I don't know why…our time went
by
There's nothing left to feel
Except this boring kind of anger
That's wasting me
You leave it up to me…
A fading night… I feel the light
(Of) A day that dawns in gray
Overgrowing all my hopelessness…
But shadows will stay…
You leave it up to me…
(Not insomnia...got to sleep somehow.)
This time is hard
It's not as easy as it was
With you around
You stood always by my side
You made this world a better place
With just a smile
I waved goodbye
I shed a tear
And never felt for someone
The way I felt for you
And I don't mean…
For anyone…
I mean for you!
And all these memories fade away
I can feel that I will lose these images
I tried so hard to keep…
But I never will forget…
You made it such an easy thing
To feel at home
I waved goodbye
I shed a tear
And never felt for someone
The way I felt for you
And I don't mean…
For anyone…
I mean for you!
I read the lines
You've left for me
I can't believe
You've gone so far
I can't believe
I broke the rules
I know it well
I don't understand myself
It's hard to tell
I saw the signs
I knew it from the start
I had no answers to the questions
You could ask
I don't understand you saying
"Our seas were always rough!"
We had to make it up someway
But years were not enough
I will not praise the times we had
And won't deny that I feel sad
The silence speaks for you and me
While we're dancing
I will not praise the times we had…
I don't love you anymore
And we're dancing
You're no the one I'm falling for
But we are dancing
Look at what we have today
I can't live without you!
That's not what I want to say
But it seems so true
I will not praise the time we had…
So many good times that we had
I can't help myself
I feel so sad
I wish that you would speak to me
While we're dancing
I don't love you anymore…
Walking down the streets at night
I see her stumbling through the rain
A skinny figure in the dark
Her face a shade of gray
Begging here and barking there
She's swearing all the time
Her fingers fumbling with her hair
A dirty mess of grime
And she starts to cry and she's asking
why
Her life's always the same
But she does not see, that unfortunately
There's no one here to blame
"Heroin," she said, "Was
the best I had…
No more mountains left to climb.
The world so slow…all my dreams just too high
To be fulfilled in time!"
She grabs my arm and I feel alarmed
Her fingers gripping tight
I see her pleading eyes, so I start to disguise
And say that, everything's alright…
And the reason why I pretended and lied
Is that I don't want to kill
The poor dream that's let in the deepest cleft
Of the thing that she calls will…!
"Heroine," she said…
(I call this a successful attempt at rock...they should do more...another song I put on infinite loop.)
