1. ROLLERCOASTER

Outrun the fight
I use to hide
In quiet places

I'll refrase my cry
For I would keep on wondering
The rest of my life

You're all moving too fast
My biggest fear is
That we'll never ever last

I know, it's not that easy
Let's hit the brakes

Don't take no time
Unless there's a crime
To be committed

I guess we lost our faith
While we stand and wait
Until nothing ever happens

I know, it's not that easy
Let's hit the brakes


2. ON MOST SURFACE (INUIT)

The frost hits me in the eye
And wakes me
These are blury winters
And I cannot see

I walk into the white light of the snow
When the sun comes
I break it with my shadow
Which tales me where I go

The frost hits me in the eye
And wakes me

I am the snow falling down on you
I tear up your face with my frost
And make you run to somewhere warm
When I come I see you get away
I burst out about your emptyness

The frost hits me in the eye
And wakes me
These are blury winters
And I cannot see


3. LIBERTY BELL

No brainwaves or activity
While the craft is in the air
It's getting dark, it's getting light
We are sitting in a chair

We have fastened every belt
We cannot float out of our seats
It's so enormously frightening
When our tail reaches superheat

Another timezone
A change of season
It is turning dark again
We're getting ready for yet
Another orbit around our planet

It is time for the galactic cruise
To come to an end
One last view on the world
And the time we have spend


4. LEAVES

I close your eyes with my mouth
Now you don't see anything
But you feel my breath all over
I can feel you too

Although I don't really know you
I don't really care

Cry with me, make my day
Tomorrow all will be gone
All the sweetness and all the fun
No, I don't wanna know...

Although I don't really know you
I don't really care

Now that you're gone I don't know
How to really feel inside
Baring the hope to see you again
I guess I never will

Now that I do really know you
Yes, I really care!


5. ANALOG PARK

In the garden, in the park, on a bench, I sit.
A newspaper floats on the breeze of this late summer.
It is coming my way,
I patiently wait.

I see the sign, it's on the road
And I think it's crazy

In the garden, of the park, on a bench, I watch.
The sandy feet of the children.
Pearls of sweat run across their beautiful faces.

You see the sign, it's on the road
But I think you're crazy

You are, you are the sign
Of my unrelief

As I easily get inner contact with myself,
I notice distress grabbing for my throat.
It is time to reach out.
To find something that isn't there,

You see the signs, they're on the road
But I think it's crazy

You are, you are the sign
Of my unrelief


6. AMITY

The torture won't part you
Motherly breast won't warm you
You fail and foam from your mouth
why is it so loud, this sound?

All the sense your are capable of
does not seem to save you
You heed the glance of a smile
Was it impossible to float for a while?

Restless is carrying fever
burning you to pieces
In search and need of a friend
Will I bow down to this in the end?

I lay in the hands of my maker
and I want to spend the rest of it awake
Why do I get the feeling they'll brake it
It's a fight... it's a fight...

The torture won't part you
Mothers lap can't seem to warm you
You strain, you climb up and frown
Why is it so loud, This down?

All the sense you are capable of
does not seem to save you
You heed the glance of a smile
Was it impossible to float for a while?

I lay in the hands of my maker
And I want to spend the rest of it awake
Why do I get the feeling they'll brake it
It's a fight... it's a fight


7. STRANGE MACHINES

It has always been in the back of my mind
Dreaming about going to the corners of time
I always wanted to fly in strange machines

I wanna do centuries in a lifetime
And feel it with my hands
Touch the World War II and Cleopatra
Flying...

Could it be that my dream would come true
Building a machine that would actually do
What I want it to do

Russian revolution, let's do that in one day
Beethoven and Gershwin I think that would be o.k.
More than anything I wanna fly in strange machines

I wanna do centuries in a lifetime
And see it with my eyes
Watch Jesus rise, if he ever did
Flying...

I wanna do centuries in a lifetime
And feel it with my hands
Touch Renaissance and Chaka Khan
Flying...


8. SHOT TO PIECES

What fine judgement I see
In the eyes of our world leaders
Oh how beautiful life could be
If it hadn't been shot to pieces

Shot to pieces

What secret music do I hear
Upon the drums of my ear

What great pleasure I feel
I come from nowhere and I shall return
Because of you people I will flee


9. NIGHTTIME BIRD

Their ways are open
They spread as their wings
They want to be certain
Of a warm surrounding

When they fly
Through the night as beautiful
Nighttime birds

The warm wind picks them up

When they fly
Through the night as beautiful
Nighttime birds


10. MAROONED

I know from a lesser tribe
I suppose the range of my intelligence
Is way too wide

And you don't see me
'Cause I don't have much to say

My emotional outlet
Is consuming the better part of me
And apart from the wrong words
A tortured cry is making me see

That you don't see me
'Cause I don't have much to say

Hours and hours of jealousy
Are passing me by
Although hollow silence
Is the only wave
Going through your brain

And you don't see me
'Cause I don't have much to say


11. SATURNINE

The day you went away
You had to screw me over
I guess you didn't know
All the stuff you left me with
Is way too much to handle
But I guess you don't care

You don't need to preach
You don't have to love me, all the time

Whatever on earth possessed you
To make this bold decision
I guess you don't need me
While whispering those words
I cried like a baby
Hoping you would care

You don't need to preach
You don't have to love me, all the time

You don't have to preach
All the time
I see my late identity burn
