Though I know it would be hard to get through.
How to know it hurts so miserably
You did not deserve the trust put in you.
Even my dreams may fade to obscurity
If I could forget the things said and done.
Yes I’d like to find the faith without doubt
Can’t you see except you I have no one,
So even leaving you –
That’s no way out!
Neither with you nor existence alone.
Sadness lead me to confusion unknown
Am I blesses or am I at least just proud,
And leaving you –
That’s no way out!
I long for the summer
I long for the sun
gently touching my face
I’ll open my eyes
let it burn every splinter
unleash desert storms
on its way to my heart
and I had this coming
every day of my life
this is where I stop fighting
eyes open wide
you took this blade
and cut a wreck
and in one blow
laid bare your neck
where did we go wrong?
I once had blue eyes
hungry and wise
now they are black from this
dark age of lies
we’re all privatized
industrialized
we capitalize on the beams in our
eyes
it’s all in the eyes
eyes - tearing with sorrow
burning with anger and passion and lust
the swift wind of thought
of wildness and laughter
the soil of defiance
the firm ground of trust
(we had this coming - every day of our lives)
(we should start fighting for eyes open wide)
but I am put here
in this world gone insane
where everything’s for sale
from nature, over stars down to DNA
then I can gladly say
that I’d be the first to break that norm
any day
any way
and the last to join the ranks
to hunt down the Daily Threat
or any other brand of prey
you took this blade
and cut a wreck
and in one blow
laid bare your neck
where did we go wrong?
we once had blue eyes
probing the skies
now they are blackened
from this modern life
all privatized
industrialized
a failure
offensive and sore to the eye
one small step for man
maybe this time I’ll fly
and if I hit the ground
it’s the way we all die
we are wrecks of the cut
soups of the season
with dollar sign scars
from this dark age of treason
we all know how to cry
then we learn how to smile
how to smile
we’re all telling the truth
tell us the truth!
then we learn how to lie
and oh, how we lie
how we
lie
when you bow your heads tomorrow
at the world we build today
I want you to remember
that I stood my ground
and said no
(say no)
I said no...
say no!

Another Rose - Simon Frei, ehemals C-SidewalkIs another rose too much or is it just me?
My thoughts keep running through love and obscene
Can't tell myself a way, enjoy that last pure ray
then night mood's on, on today
And I think of all the beautiful things you
Finding exaggerations, none is as great as you
Like you want it all
But never have enough space to fall
That's when I begin to crawl
I'm just washing through my brains
I just can't take it anymore, too much of that red that day
I want to move or rather stay but I want it all
I'm in love with that rose anyway
Roses can hurt or they can lift up your heart
But as everything turns dark, everything starts falling apart
Like you never know:
Hurry up or taking it slow
It's like a new beginning of a road
I'm just washing through my brains
I just can't take it anymore, too much of that red that day
I want to move or rather stay but I want it all
I'm in love with that rose anyway (anyway)
See, where ever my feelings grow
my world will be fine
Just rip out those leaves
Let the wind
pass them by well at least I try
And you say you're better off alone
But you, said it all on your way, your way home
Like you're a swinging thing
And then you do the damn old thing and then you start again
See you start singing
Oh Oh Oh
I love you so
Mehr Infos zur Band: https://www.facebook.com/simon.lubinCounting out Time - GenesisI'm counting out time,
Got the whole thing down by numbers.
All those numbers!
Give me guidance!
O Lord I need that now.
The day of judgement's come,
And you can bet that I've been resting,
for this testing,
Digesting every word the experts say.
Erogenous zones I love you.
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Found a girl I wanted to date,
Thought I'd better get it straight.
Went to buy a book before it's too late.
Don't leave nothing to fate.
I studied every line, every page in the book,
Now, I've got the real thing here, I'm gonna take a look, take a look.
This is Rael! ****This line should be "This is it Rael!"****
I'm counting out time, hoping it goes like I planned it,
'cos I understand it. Look! I've found the hotspots, Figs 1-9.
- still counting out time, got my finger on the button,
"Don't say nuttin - just lie there still
And I'll get you turned on just fine."
Erogenous zones I love you.
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Touch and go with 1-6.
Bit of trouble in zone No. 7.
Gotta remember all of my tricks.
There's heaven ahead in No. 11!
Getting crucial responses, dilation of the pupils.
"Honey get hip! It's time to unzip, to unzip, zip, zip-a-zip-a-zip.
Whipee!"
(Take it away Mr. Guitar)
- Move over Casanova -
I'm counting out time, reaction none to happy,
Please don't slap me,
I'm a red blooded male and the book said I could not fail.
I'm counting out time, I got unexpected distress from my mistress,
I'll get my money back from the bookstore right away.
Erongenous zones I question you -
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Without you, mankind handkinds thru' the blues.

Last Chance To Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled -
Porcupine Tree
If you fall asleep with me
You can dream and drowse
The miuntes turn to hours
We could climb a tree or two
Watch the sun go down
Upon our sleepy town
After all the time I spent with you
Summer went away
And we just weren't the same
It's just you and me alone
Not grown ups but not kids
You kissed me on the lips
"Let me say, that our mission here is about to come to a close in the next few days.
We came from distant space and even what some might call somewhat of another dimension.
And we're about to return from once we came.
It requires that you - if you move into that evolutionary kingdom - that you leave behind everything of human ways, human behaviour, human ignorance, human disinformation.
If I would title this day it would be:
Last Chance To Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled
Last Chance To Evacuate Earth Before It Is Recycled"

All That's Left – Spock's Beard
In dreams I reach to touch you perfect face again
In dreams you never cry or walk away
But I wake to the truth, daylight streaming in
I never found the way or words to make you stay
Photographs and falling leaves
Scattered dust of memories
The poets I wrote I still believe
That's all That's Left of You and Me
I found a flower of a book you hid away
In better days they seem so long ago
I tried to touch it but it crumbled in my hand
Just like a future planned that we would never know
Photographs and falling leaves
Scattered dust of memories
The poets I wrote I still believe
That's all That's Left of You and Me
Echoes of a better time
Ring forever in my mind
Where I'm goint where I've been
Different places in the end
Photographs and falling leaves
Scattered dust of memories
The poets I wrote I still believe
That's all That's Left of You and Me

Fallen – Orphan Project
(Text zur Zeit nicht verfügbar)
Kingdom of Loss – Pain Of Salvation
Someone sells us Toys™ in a cheap cartoon
Someone sells us Cars™ in the latest Bond™ that's coming soon
Someone sells us Trends™ through a sitcom star
Someone sells Herself™ in a docu-soap that goes too far
Life™ on sale!
"Could someone please just tell me what happened?
I mean, first we pay for fast-food that will make us all fat and tired.
So then we pay for elevators, so we won't have to climb the three stairs up to our apartments.
Then we buy freaking stairmaster™ machines
So we can burn away while watching someone make real food on TV.
Now, if that doesn't make us winners I don't know what will.
I bet we would hang ourselves if the world would just cut the slack.
And now you think maybe you should see a shrink,
Help you feel alive again - yeah, that's a plan!
Just tell us who to pay.
Someone sells us Man™ in a White House™ speech
Then Woman™ tightly pressed between two bouncing breasts, on a Baywatch™ beach
Someone sells us Us™ everywhere I turn
Then introducing Them™ to earn stock-points on our concern
All for sale, all for sale
Welcome down to planet Earth™
Please don't ask us what it's worth
You will notice that the world you found
Is slightly tattered and worn down
Someone sold us every stain
Now if you wish to complain
There's an open spot at 6 PM
It's when Caucasia is listening
If you're tearing down my world
Please just try to do it gently
There is love inside
For a dream that has to die
"See, it's really all about time and choice.
The fast food saves us enough time to squeeze lunch in exactly when we want it.
The elevators save us just a little more, the StairMaster™ lets us choose exactly when to walk the stairs.
Time is so important these days, it's becoming a fucking disease, and I guess in a way it is since it's bound to kill us all in the end.
Now with all the time and money we stash away on others' expense,
I can only assume that the tickets to hell are really expensive.
For some reason, it's important to be first in line."
Someone sells us God™ in 2-for-1 with Shame™
Someone sells us War™ and the marketing looks just the same
Someone sells us Fear™ on TV each day
a shape for every taste; if the flavour's right, we gladly pay
All on sale,
We're all on sale,
Welcome to the only Earth™
Please enjoy your only birth
You will learn to take more than you give
Buying scars you must live with
Someone sold us every scar
They somehow made us what we are
We all want that spot at 6 PM
But no one is really listening
No - not anymore
We're all too busy buying Sex™, buying War™
Buying Self-confidence™, Security™, Insurance Plans™
Just buying More & More™
As you're tearing down our world
Please just try to do it gently
There's still love inside
For the dream that has to die
As you're tearing down our world

Fountain Of Glow - Sylvan
Part I
Heart, you bleed away … Days, you’re dyed in crimson
World, you left me pale and misunderstood
Home, where are you now? Face, I lost you in the
Crowed, a frozen Place – will my heart survive?
Then a flamet flares up faintly
Touch my heart with just one smile!
Heart, you beat aloud … Dawn, a sanguine fire
World, I should walk out, pass on what I feel
Part II
Open up, step out … a flame unfurled … into a brand-new, once threatening world
I walk with a smile, this smile’s my arm to shoot out a fire the causes no harm
I’ll contaminate and strike a spark, an ardent desire to share my heart…
Propagate my blood, let’s spread it out, embrace the whole world and light the crowed
Explode, blazing fire, outshine the dark, please warm and revive my heart!
And now shine so bright … please spread, my flame … and fly …
Heart, you last … oh yes, you’ll live on
World, you start to grow a new home for me
Face … you … please take my smile …
Dark, where are you now?
World, so unfamiliar …
Please … your little heart, will it wilt, my child?
Than an angel brings you heaven! Inflame your heart with just one smile!
Part III
Living in haze, living in fume, living in rage
Living in jealousy
Living in haste, living in need, living in time
Look, all the people next to me
Living in cold, living in ice … Living in quest of sympathy
Living in hate living in ash … Look, all the people crave for care indeed
It is on you, comes from you … hand it over
Living in glut, living in greed, living in void,
Living in vacuity … Living in grief, living in pain
Living in lack of just a little heed … Living in fear, living in urge
Living for respect, this is all they need
It is on you, comes from you … hand it over
Love is the fountain, the fountain of glow
Where hearts can catch fire and passion can grow
Vibrant and truthful, a radiant flame
That creates with its power both pleasure and pain …

Endgame – Martin Orford
Into the endgame, bound for surrender
We make no sound
Taking the old road, leaving the download
To claim our ground
And no-one stopped and cried, on the day the music died
Their faces turned aside when they came to close us down
Lost in the sunset, bathed in vermilion
We live for the day
You in my life were one in a million, and I hope you'll stay
But the ray of hope is gone, that we need to carry on
We're back where we came from, in a universe alone

Disappear – Porcupine Tree
We made the world believe we didn't care
We gate crashed parties and just stood and stared
We moved to London and stayed in all year
You wrote poetry while I disappeared
You made a choice for us to live it up
I've got a voice inside me saying give it up
Let's get out of here, let's find a new career
You be famous, I'll disappear
Disappear - I erase myself again
I need security, you favour chance
I ponder everything, you advance
You bring the world to me and I just sneer
Standing next to you I disappear

For Safekeeping – It Bites
This distant light, helps to remind me
So it keeps me in check but not all of the time
It goes straight to the nerve at the back of my mind
And it helps me retain what I openly give to you
For safekeeping
Chorus:
It’s only safekeeping now
I will refrain from the words that I say to you
That’s if you want me to my dear
Cos we’re only safekeeping now
I will return all the words that I took from you
And I broke in two these things that help me
These words collide, help to decide me
So they keep me awake but not all of the time
They go straight to the place in the back of my mind
And I never forget what I openly take from you
For safekeeping
(Chorus)
Keep it in mind with her all of this time
With the safety in words that we choose to entwine
Pull at the ends and you’ll see them unwind
They are softly spoken
Keep me in check but not all of the time
Give me a space and just let me decide
How can you forget when I openly cry
It is for safekeeping
I could pretend as I swallow my pride
Because it’s perfectly clear, are you reading the signs?
So must I repeat for the millionth time,
It is for safekeeping?
It’s just for safekeeping now
I will refrain for the words that I say to you
That’s if you want me to my dear
Cos we’re just for safekeeping now
I will return all the words that I took from you
And I broke in two these things that help me

Iter Impius – Pain Of Salvation
[Mr. Money:]
I woke up today
Expecting to find all that I sought
And climb the mountains of the life I bought
Finally I'm at the top of every hierarchy
Unfortunately there is no one left
But me
I woke up today
To a world that's ground to dust, dirt and stone
I'm the king upon this withering throne
I ruled every forest, every mountain, every sea
Now there're but ruins left to rule for me
And... you see, it beckons me;
Life turned its back on us
How could you just agree?
...how? I just don't see...
I woke up today
To a world devoid of forests and trees
Drained of every ocean, every sea
Just like a useless brick upon the shore
The morning after the storm
That swept the bridge away
Relentless tide
No anger
Just this relentless time
That calls us all on
But...
I'm never crossing that line
Leaving this world behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained throne
I rule the ruins and wrecks
And the dust, dirt and stone
I rule rage rod and rattling of bones
I am on my own
I am all alone
Everything is gone
Stuck forever here
Already cold
I'm never crossing that line
Leaving this world behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained throne...
I'm never crossing that line
Leaving this world behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained throne
I rule the ruins and wrecks
And the dirt and the dust and the stone
I'm the ruler of rage rod and rust
And the rattling of bones
Ruler of ruin...

Otherwhere – Lunatic Soul
I am becoming
In the realm of unknown
Beyond unending
Time
Space
And form
I was buried for rebirth
Casting off the old
Born into the spirit
From within I come
Escape from sorrow
No beginning
No end
Return to whiteness
The new loneliness
I was buried for rebirth
Casting off the old
Born into the spirit
From within I come

Share The World With Me- Sylvan
Part I
When I look ahead, where the mountains rise
Where the winding path stretches out of sight
With my wish in mind – see the peak of snow
I simply pack my things … and go …
And here I walk this way with feet on stony ground
To savour each step I take … no matter what I’ll find
No need to think of all those obstacles around
I finally reach the top, sit down and feel alive …
Gonna make it right – and I breathe in … Gonna make it right my own way
Take it as it comes – simply feel it … Take it without thoughts, without pains
Gonna make it right … and you’re gonna share my endless view …
Gonna make it right, make it right …
Part II
High - up here on ancient ground … high above the stones …
Though I sit here alone, you were never gone
Now share the earth with me
Part III
Stay, my friend and share with me your time
Just as once, when I shared with you mine
See the world that I can see from here … through my eyes
Seize the day – perhaps you understand
It gives my strength – I hoped it helped, my friend
You can trust in my sincerity … Taught by our tragedy
Found my way up here
Though I sit here alone, you were never gone
Now share the earth with me
Stay my friend – look back in time with me
I tried my best … I hope that you agree
I won’t scrutinize our destiny … The way that you expect from me
And it let me right up here
High – up here on ancient ground … high above the stones…
Where the mountains sit enthroned – deserted by care
Though I sit here alone, you were never gone
Please share the world with me
Part IV
Grain of truth – it trickles through my fingers
Different view – so hard to take …
I tried, but you refused to even listen … Just if you knew to follow me here …
Can you find what I show you? Can you try and see?
Gonna make it right – and I breathe in … Gonna make it right my own way
Take it as it comes – simply feel it … Take it without thoughts, without pains
Gonna make it right … and you’re gonna share my endless view …
Gonna make it right, make it right …
Through gashed, withered canyons … through snow-covered hills
With ease as companion I’ll move on (I will)
No matter how arduous, I promise I’ll do
I won’t question the perils – just keep on … with you …

Tell Me You Don't Know – Pain Of Salvation
There's a me who always found his way,
but I can't seem to find him just today.
If sometimes I ask you where to go,
just don't help me find the road.
Tell me you don't know.
Please tell me so.
There was a me who always knew what was right
- that's who I need to help me through this night.
So if sometimes I ask you where to go,
please don't help me find the road.
Tell me you don't know.
Please tell me you don't know.
If sometimes I ask you where to go,

L'arbre - Lazuli
Pour remonter aux racines
je vais à la cime.
Pour un retour à zéro
je vais au plus haut.
Pour me sentir plus, plus humain
je retourne d'où je viens.
Pour ne pas devenir de marbre
je remonte à l'arbre.
Lazuli erklärt zu dem Text:
"L'arbre", "The Tree" is a tribute to nature and to our roots.
What we regard as a form of evolution turns out to be its opposite.
This song is a kind of hymn to the main thing, epitomized in a few words:
"I'm getting back to the tree..."

School - Supertramp
I can see you in the morning when you go to school
Don't forget your books, you know you've got to learn the golden rule,
Teacher tells you stop your play and get on with your work
And be like Johnnie - too-good, well don't you know he never shirks
- he's coming along!
After School is over you're playing in the park
Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark
They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about
And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out
- and you're full of doubt
Don't do this and don't do that
What are they trying to do?- Make a good boy of you
Do they know where it's at?
Don't criticize, they're old and wise
Do as they tell you to
Don't want the devil to
Come out and put your eyes
Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight
Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right
But while I am still living, I've just got this to say
It's always up to you if you want to be that
want to see that
want to see that way
- you're coming along!

Milk And Alkohol - Dr. Feelgood
White boy in town
Big black, blue sound
Night club, I paid in
I got a stamp on my skin
Main attraction dead on his feet
Black man rhythm with a white boy beat
They got him on milk and alcohol
They got him on milk and alcohol
Stay put I wanna go
Hard work, bad show
More liquor, it don't help
He's gonna die, it breaks my heart
I decided eventually
This ain't doing athing for me
They got him on milk and alcohol
They got him on milk and alcohol
They got him on milk and alcohol
They got him on milk and alcohol
They got him on milk and alcohol
They got him on milk and alcohol
Got up, I walked out
To the car, start it up
Feel bad, sad night
I never saw a red light
Sirens were a screamin' all around
I pulled on over and I shut her down
A black cop gave me a shove with his gun
Said up against the wall and don't make a run
They got me on milk and alcohol
They got me on milk and alcohol
