Opening
New Ghosts In Town
[Music & lyrics Markus B.]
Yesterday a little boy knocked at my door
He said, "New ghosts are in town."
And a creepy blow touched my heart
I said there was nothing to be afraid of
It'd be just the way our eyes deceive us
The boy nodded and ran away
But from somewhere the ghosts arrived in town
I felt like an idiot but I couldn't tell him
The world only knows bad teachers in this case
Everyone feels
Everyone screams
No one can change
The way we proceed
When new ghosts are in town
The night was just dark and my dreams ever darker
There was this boy from yesterday, but wrinkled and old
He sad I was coward, a blue savage hidden behind paralysed skin
And I just ran away through sunless roads
Woke up with garbled senses, fighting with my new ghosts
We are scratched by something we cant' comprehend
Folded by demons and already bent
We only can comfort a little boy's soul
The ghosts are here but they just play their role
Everyone feels
Everyone screams
Someone can change
The way we proceed
When new ghosts are in town
Invisible Fields
[Music & lyrics Markus B.]
War is invisible
Crawling like bitter silence
Souls are visible
Inside unmirrored moments
I've been walking through invisible fields
And it was damn cold as you said
Maybe I will come back once again
But prepared with much better shields
Life is invisible
Dawning like the fires of the sun
With one big bang
Our nothingness explodes
And there is a meaning
Will I ever reach invisible fields?
Will I ever reach your eyes to drown in?
Is it too much I'm looking for?
Is it just a useless torch?
Too many traces
Buried by the sea
Find your lost places
Washed away by destiny
Im Spiegel
[Music by Markus B., lyrics by Arisjel]
Was siehst du?
Was siehst du im Spiegel?
Nights!
Ganz einfach nights!
Alles ist tot, was night durchtost von Seele ist.
Gedanken schmieden Wahrheit - Geist ist Leben.
Tötendes Leben, was siehst du in dir?
Welten, unsterbliches Sein
Wir sing Melodien in der Stille,
Sehnsucht, ein Lied in der Unendlichkeit...
Mein Engel, Der Aus Augen Fließt
[Music by Markus B., lyrics by Arisjel]
Sleepless night
Eiderdown shelter
Unsecure from blue stars
Where angels dwell
He found me naked
Unprepared
Weak and hopeless
Smashing my asylum
Mein Engel, der aus Augen fließt
Wie tanzende Sterne
Wie sengendes Klingen
Flüsterndes Licht in der Nacht
Always there
But blindness within
Benumed my soulmade strings
And toneless thoughts
He found me weeping
Caressing touch
Tearing veils and chains
I am eternized
Mein Engel, der aus Augen fließt
Wie tanzende Sterne
Wie sengendes Klingen
Flüsterndes Licht in der Nacht
Every Sun Is Fragile
[Music & lyrics Markus B.]
You've teached (sic) me how to
Tame the wars inside
But I cannot hide
There's too much rage
Bleeding from my self-made cage
Oh, lord, check my thesis
That every truth is fragile
And we just have to accept
The future fights will tear us apart again
Cause every sun is fragile
And this is good somehow
I've learned how to
Destroy the beautiful moment
It's like a dying scent
There's too much erosion
And a sense of failed visions
Come closer to me
I need your wounds right now
I don't wanna die like a dead man
The flame must shine again
Oh, lord, check my thesis
That every truth is fragile
And we just have to accept
The future fights will tear us apart again
Cause every sun is fragile
And this is good somehow
Can you see the tower?
No?
It's still hidden.
But someday you will be there
Cold Soul
[Music by Markus B., lyrics by Arisjel]
Your heart is empty
Murderer of god
Secularly dancer
Without a breath of pulse
But life will hurt you
With swords of ice
One day
I know
Cold soul
What will you keep inside
When the truth
Covers your pride?
Your heart is sunless
Murderer of hope
Empty outer world
A sunless road
Cold soul
Without resonance
When tunes arise
To tear the veil
How I Learned To Burn My Teardrops
[Music & lyrics: Markus B.]
No sun, no rain, no cloud for me
Just endless peaceful agony
One breath could wash away all joy
And I'd be gone, thy milky boy
There must have been a day in June
When darkness veiled the edge of moon
In somber rage I climbed the hill
A cloak of black disguised my chill
Hey
Burn your life
It's such an easy game
Youth shall be a flawless sword
Just tame the blade, romantic lord
And then one day without a warning
Your eyes are seared like deserts swarming
Hey
Burn your life
It's such an easy game
I should destroy these foolish words
Few rhymes don't make a serious bird
But, well, it's just my style, you know
So take the tram, you way will show
Hey
Burn your life
It's such an easy game
Go on, go on and hide your flame
Go on, go on and hide your fears
Then you will get it-no more tears
A Place For Paper Diamonds
[Music & lyrics: Markus B.]
I see you standing at the edge of science
Praying to misguided gods
We are the good people you've sworn
But hey, are you really sure about?
Apart from that there was a wonderful place
Destructed by years when life burned a maze
Into the wild romantic shores we've created
Where fairies of gold and some more darlings waited
Now there's just paper to heal the sun
A fight against the bleeding road
That covers life with moments of rust
Terror is not what comes from the gun
A place for paper diamonds
Is it too much asking for?
A grave for all the tyrants
Running against our fragile core
Verglimmt
[Music by Markus B., lyrics by Arisjel]
Wir sind flackernde Lichter im dunklen Strom der Zeit
Schnell verglimmend, von vielen Augen unbemerkt, als wären wir nie dagewesen.
Und wenn die Nacht uns längst vergessen hat,
Tanzt unsere zitternde Flamme in sehnenden Seelen,
Die uns lieben - UNAUSLÖSCHBAR - als sengende Erinnerung.
Wer sind hier, un zu brennen.
Es ist der Sinn, der uns treibt.
Wir wollen leben für die Liebe und das Glück,
Als könnten wir dem Tod entflieheni
Aus unserem Glimmen wird Feuer,
Das hell durch Seelenmächte strahlt.
Zerbrechlich und stark, un alle Ängste zu verzehren
Und wenn uns dann im letzten Augenblick das Tonband der Welt entgleitet,
Bis niemand mehr uns folgen kann auf die Reise zurück zum Anfang,
Dann wird nichts zu Ende sein - nur anders.
