Feels like a storm’s coming up

I’m prepared

I’m not gonna stop

For the mess they create

For the hate they spread

For them I won’t wait

Wait until we’ve met

All this time lost in dust

I’ve left all my sorrows

My line has been crossed

I’m not longer lost

Dreamlike I’m rising up

Unprepared for what’s gonna come

Ready for new ways

I’ve waited for

Counting all those days

Closing all the doors

All my time lost in dust

I’ve left all my sorrows

My line has been crossed

I’m not longer lost

I’ll find a new way

For making a life without you

I’ll start a new day

I finally won’t need you

All my time lost in dust

I’ve left all my sorrows

My line has been crossed

I’m not longer lost

Velvet surfaces and no regrets

A closed cover of a Book completed

Determined certainties of fulfilled threats

Open bodies of the troops defeated

Icing on my cake

Completely without use

Promises delayed

You‘re killing my muse

Eyes wide – bare sites

Leave me hangin‘ with my mouth open wide

Unformed – unkind

I‘ve got

Unfinished Business

Activate myself to no effect

Enter everything and then forget

Unformed – Unkind

I‘ve got

Unfinished Business

You‘ve got me triggered against the wall

Got me started through edgy halls

I‘m holding back till the deadline‘s expired

At the end of the stairway there‘s waiting my fall

I‘m a car without wheels

A campsite without weed

A verse without a chorus

A dancer without feet

Eyes wide – bare sites

Leave me hangin‘ with my mouth open wide

Unformed – unkind

I‘ve got

Unfinished Business

Activate myself to no effect

Enter everything and then forget

Unformed – Unkind

I‘ve got

Unfinished Business

Verse:

Solid footing
Spindle-shanked bars
Rise up to begin and set the wheels in motion
Meshing gearwheels
Old-stagnant oil
You’re desperate to see these thought-through mechanisms
With bright laughter and timid delight
You cheered when it began
The marble in its track

Chorus:

Why do you start my chain reaction?
Take control of what’s mine
Risking my, starting my fall
Messing around with my mind’s creation
Who knows what remains?
While you don’t care I mind

Finale:

Overthrown – Meaningless – Now you leave such a mess
Injuries and defeat you don’t try you achieve

I am much too late

I hope you don’t mind

I Need you now

To listen

right here and right now

 

Please stop my train of thought

Taking off without you

And share my doubt

Help me stay awake

 

Books are closed

curtains fall

bubbles burst

I Waited too long I see

 

Facts – that I cant change

Risks – i didn’t take

Traps – that I fell in

The portraits of a time long gone

 

Walls inbetween

Not just you and me

Dont wanna be here

I guess i better leave

Don’t make me wanna leave

 

Don’t just now speak of truth

This is not yet the end

Carry me away

Lease hath not yet a date

 

The distance between

Has grown easily

I let it happen

Falling away

 

Books are closed

curtains fall

bubbles burst

I Waited too long I see

 

Walls inbetween

Not just you and me

Dont wanna be here

I guess i better leave

Don’t make me wanna leave

Old ancient monuments that

Stay against all odds and reason

A thousand years they have seen

Yet not a sign of corrosion

Likewise resistant ideas

You will not get rid of those ones

That are stuck deep in your sleeve

Feeling like hostile invasion

It comes crushing down – ideals you stood for

It is time to take the crown – you know that you want more

They tried to bury her deep

So that noone will come find her

10 miles of dirt up her feet

Won’t stop them dreamer’s desire

They tried to lock up her thoughts

Driven by unstoppable fear

As long as someone recalls

There’ll always be someone to hear

It comes crushing down – ideals you stood for

It is time to take the crown – you know that you want more

Rise up and fill Defector’s Legacy

You won’t lay back and watch

Find out who you are – follow your destiny!

The time for you is now!

They don’t need no disguise

Not even trying denying

It’s before everyone’s nose

But simply noone is minding

Act only for their own good

But it will be their last abyss

One day they all wilk find out

The many things they come to miss

It comes crushing down – ideals you stood for

It is time to take the crown – you know that you want more

Rise up and fill Defector’s Legacy

You won’t lay back and watch

Find out who you are – follow your destiny!

The time for you is now!

 
 

Don’t be fooled by shining stars,

Legends and shimmering lights

For whats behind the gate of gods

A thousand broken illusions

 

Join me on this dismal ride

Behind the silver screen

Unwind the elegant covers

Reveal the dirty colors

 

Dare to look behind the scenes

Cheesy studio sets

The call for eternal greatness

Resonates so long

 

Join me for this actress‘ tale

Of ill-fated events

Join me for her downward trail

Of afterlife ascent.

 

Can a star-light ingénue 

Find eternal life on screen?

Will this lady continue

Starring in a perfect scene?

 

Larger than life – Glitter and Gold

Trapped on the reels – that never grow old

Larger than life – Bitter and Cold

Higher and higher – Downward we go!

 

Left without a role to play

Broke and turned away

Left out of her fairytale

In the cutting room way

 

Platinum blonde temptation

Infinite golden curls

Broadway theatre sensation

Bathing in silver pearls

 

Finding her way through the ocean

Searching for theatre fame

Feeling beloved on the stage floor

Finally being acclaimed

 

Can a star-light ingénue 

Find eternal life on screen?

Will this lady continue

Starring in a perfect scene?

 

Larger than life – Glitter and Gold

Trapped on the reels – that never grow old

Larger than life – Bitter and Cold

Higher and higher – Downward we go!

 

Left without a role to play

Broke and turned away

Left out of her fairytale

In the cutting room way

 

See the starlets – feel the thrill

Falling curtains – obscure chill

 

Art Decó glamour – forever blended

Spluttered out – performance ended

 

Can a star-light ingénue 

Find eternal life on screen?

Will this lady continue

Starring in a perfect scene?

 

Larger than life – Glitter and Gold

Trapped on the reels – that never grow old

Larger than life – Bitter and Cold

Higher and higher – Downward we go!

 

Left without a role to play

Broke and turned away

Left out of her fairytale

In the cutting room way

See the elegant blemish

Traffic Lights turn red

Too many bridges broken I confess

The others are all gone

Picked a street and cherished

Where’s room for pleasure there is emptiness

 

On my own

Lights turn on

 

Traffic Lights

Signs leading into the dusty road I remain

Silent nights

Here all alone on the crossroad left in the rain

 

 

I walk towards an old guy

He stares me right in the eye

Screams at me for all I did not do

Shaking, he starts to cry

Till his eyes run dry

I leave him standing there this half-dead fool

 

On my own

Lights turn on

 

Traffic Lights

Signs leading into the dusty road I remain

Silent nights

All alone on the crossroad left in the rain

 

But when the light turns green

Where will I be?

 

Traffic Lights

Signs leading into the dusty road I remain

Silent nights

All alone on the crossroad left in the rain

Wake up to nothing

feel the new air

talking to noone

but somebody’s there

 

Get up in my bed

half conscious half gone

loose control of my head

being where I belong

 

Join as we enter the dark

Fearless of what we might see

sunrise will slowly embark

Finally setting  us free

 

Wandering branches

Shimmering Lights

Out of sight fences

Unending nights

 

Join as we enter the dark

Fearless of what we might see

Sunrise will slowly embark

Finally setting us free

 

Reach me

differently inbetween

Teach me

Find our way no delay

Now

Floating mind

End of Sight

Endlessly drowned

in our night

deep inside

 

Join  as we enter the dark

Fearless of what we might see

Sunrise will slowly embark

Finally setting us free

In the origin everything was tight

Consolidated in its correct place

No empty spaces – unity was reached

But time grew older and with it came

A thousand matters – a million things

Space was narrow – pressure started to grow

 

Add one thing here and another one there

Pack it up till there’s no room left

Do this do that – there is still enough space

No room is endless, it reached it’s peak

No glimpse of light can find its way

Through the matter – entropy is near

 

The pressure rises – Increasing pain

No more choices – pumping veins

Ascending terror – energy

Bursting parts fleeting in irreversibility

 

The state of perfection is beginning to burst

And what once has been broken cannot be reversed

Decrease is impossible, overload of energy

And the ancient grudge of mayhem breaks to all-new mutiny

The entropy’s rising, all energy dispersed

But the matter’s still expanding and chaos has emerged

Unity is divided – has gone up in anarchy

And all parts are drifting in continuity

 

What should be done when all is lost?

And every part just fades away

Aerospace is completely caving in

The parts of me they are replaced

By empty spaces I’m surrounded by

One thing’s clear –  Entropy will not decrease

 

The pressure rises – Increasing pain

No more choices – pumping veins

Ascending terror – energy

Bursting parts fleeting in irreversibility

 

The state of perfection is beginning to burst

And what once has been broken cannot be reversed

Decrease is impossible, overload of energy

And the ancient grudge of mayhem breaks to all-new mutiny

The entropy’s rising, all energy dispersed

But the matter’s still expanding and chaos has emerged

Unity is divided – has gone up in anarchy

And all parts are drifting in continuity

She witnessed the inequity

The wrongfulness of brutality

She saw the people in distress

and risked a glance at the wrongfulness

Innocents all beaten up

By the law men with their club

Media behind strong bars

In the prison of perpetual wars

 

And swore that someday…

She’ll be the one that frees the weak

Someday…

They will fear her brazen cheek

 

But it never – never came – came to that

Cause quickly – something strong dimmed her mind

Control – no ones left – to save her soul

And she got thrown into defector’s grave

 

While the thought cops unveiled her feels

She felt proud, wanted to resist

Not knowing that they longed for her heels

her case was destined to be dismissed

The Brother watched her extensively

Vaporisers looked patiently

She wanted justice to be done

All that’s left is room 101 – Still thinking…

 

Someday…

She’ll be the one that frees the weak

Someday…

They will fear her brazen cheek

But it never – never came – came to that

Cause quickly – something strong dimmed her mind

Control – no ones left – to save her soul

And she got thrown into defector’s grave

 

1 – Vast oppression beginning to rise

2 –brain conditioning washing her mind

3 – algorithms dissecting her thoughts

4 –material havings useless by law

5 – all ignored by her own family

6 – huge exclusion from the society

7 – deprivation defining her nights

8 – all alone left with nothing to hide

 

But it never – never came – came to that

Cause quickly – something strong dimmed her mind

Control – no ones left – to save her soul

And she got thrown into defector’s grave

But it never – never came – came to that

Cause quickly – something strong dimmed her mind

Control – no ones left – to save her soul

And she got thrown into defector’s grave

At Torrence Street

There are streetlights; there are houses

You can feel the heat

Descending from the dwellings

There are people too

Strange ones living behind their locked doors

 

While you’re  at Torrence Street

You may want to hurry cause

You can feel the beat

Fulfilling your whole body with vibrating heat

That the locked doors send to scare you right away

 

Because at Torrence Street

If you look closely and don’t run away

You can still feel the sweat of the centuries

That went ahead

The fears and the anger of the people

Whose lives have long been gone

But whose spirits never died

 

At Torrence Street

Under curbstones under gullys

Where the secrets meet

And old creatures crawl so lovely

Where the whispers screach

Til cubblestone breaks and spectres are set free

 

 

When you’re on Torrence Street

Between pathos and deformedness

Where history repeats

Behind windows and mailboxes

Where eerie people meet

To smell for sounds and to look out for those smells

 

Because at Torrence Street

If you look closely and don’t run away

You can still feel the sweat of the centuries

That went ahead

The fears and the anger of the people

Whose lives have long been gone

But whose spirits never died

 

Now the windows break their frames

And the gas destroys the streetlamps

Doorbells ring in pain

Shutters beg to fall down

 

At Torrence Street

There are streetlights; there are houses

You can feel the heat

Descending from the dwellings

There are people too

Strange ones living behind their locked doors

 

Because at Torrence Street

If you look closely and don’t run away

You can still feel the sweat of the centuries

That went ahead

The fears and the anger of the people

Whose lives have long been gone

But whose spirits never died

 

Because at Torrence Street

If you look closely and don’t run away

You can still feel the sweat of the centuries

That went ahead

The fears and the anger of the people

Whose lives have long been gone

But whose spirits never died

 
 

Running through the remains of the city

We left behind our havings and beliefs

Not knowing were we’re heading but were leaving

Leave this rotten town with its brown leaves

 

We don’t belong here

We are wrong here

We have to leave here

We need to stop

 

But at last there will be relief

We don’t need to wonder where to go next

The diaspora has and end

And we will be complete

 

They told us that their status quo is fitting

We felt that there was something left behind

They told us not to wonder what is missing

But we found out and set about to hide

 

We don’t belong here

We are wrong here

We have to leave here

We need to stop

 

But at last there will be relief

We don’t need to wonder where to go next

The diaspora has and end

And we will be complete

 

Can you think

Of what may be

If you left behind

Their reality

 

But at last there will be relief

We don’t need to wonder where to go next

The diaspora has and end

And we will be complete

But at last there will be relief

We don’t need to wonder where to go next

The diaspora has and end

And we will be complete
