lyrics.
solitude in bloom
there is a thing we've got
we call it solitude
there is a thing we need
we call it confidence
and we tried and tried
and tried - we failed
and we fell into
what we feared most
shimmering in the darkness
we see two moons
we send rains of kisses
to our solitude in bloom
as an acknowledgement
of my gratitude
i'd like to offer you
this in confidence
i will sacrifice
sacrifice myself
if all cords break
i hang myself up
make hay while the sun shines
many hands make light work
in the light of our common will but
it still looks like rain
shimmering in the darkness
we see two moons
we send rains of kisses
to our solitude in bloom
heavy zooo
out of my mouth
smoke is rising high
it's casting a cloud on you
while you die
i am a nine-headed sword swallowing
dragon
so you need
ten swords
to kill me
i am an eagle flying
high in the sky
even if you shoot
I won't die
cause my wings
are made of sacred steel
sharp like a shiny knife
so you will feel
the cutting
nose dive
cutting your throat
the blood is flowing
it is so nice
to live in the heavy zooo
it is so nice
pain power
good is repaid with good
bad with bad
nothing will be forgotten
time of retribution will come
wishing welfare to those you love
death to those you hate
palm is weaker than a fist
one single silk thread
is weaker than a rope
my neck is weaker than a rope
true words are not beautiful
beautiful words are not true
efficiency does not persuade
persuasion is not capable
the more it works for others
the more it has
the more it gives to others
the more it has
like the rope is supporting the hanging man
causes lie the pain
esophagus overdrive
someone put a dead cat in my mouth
with its head towards my esophagus
so the tail is hanging out
makes me stumble as I step on it
someone put a rat into my ear
gnawing its way through my hearing
apparatus
to finally nest in the great emptiness
that lies behind
someone exchanged my pillow
for a mouldy camembert
making my head feel all soft and furry
and isolating it against the ten ton weight
that's bumping against it permanently
spirit & crown
here you are
my retinue
ingratiates itself
watch out
i might get dirty
when you kiss my ring
step aside
all sunbeams want to serve
their aim in life
blink
my crown isn't shiny enough
to dazzle you
like my greatness does
i´m afraid
you are
no earthly use
to anyone
choke it up
and spit my blue blood
in the middle of your lovely face
the sun drops
the last inch of light falls
all what remains is my immense grace
i'm just here to pass through
blessed are the poor in spirit
but the kingdom of heaven is mine
above the line
it's just a small step for me
one giant leap for mankind
sorry
we ain´t of a kind
my funeral procession
i will have
heaven and earth
for my coffin and cover
sun and moon
will be my jewels
stars and constellations
my pearls
the creation my
funeral procession
what do you want to add
i desert
i built a machine
it's down in the cellar
behind the potato boxes
it's got a big red button
and unsurpassed logic
is programmed
i built it from my old school books
and from video tapes
with scientific programmes
it runs on philosophical essays
and outstanding literary correspondence
i have to take care of it
until it's grown up
and when the iron housing
is finally going to burst
i'll push that button
and do you know what it'll say
i desert
dance like a volcano
sound waves intrude your head
compress your brain
and force it down with a sonic boom
to the middle of your body
to form a triaxial hinge
of sex oscillations and flexibility
the lemon in your slim glass
is shaking to the beat
as you smash it down on the bar
and leave it for the centre
jerking
swirling
jacket sleeve
caught in your trouser leg
haircut
style
limbo contest participant
now you dance like a volcano
an aura of sparkling ashes
moves like rolling lava
enveloping everything
stanislav petrov
it was the year 1983
september 26th
directly below cosmos 1382
to a casual observer
looking down from space
the snow and ice fields
of the Arctic reached out
toward the earth
the curve of the earth
compressed it into a thin line
separating night and day
stretched across the north pole
deafening sound
flashing light
on this particular day
something went wrong
a red button
may turn a blue planet
into a black
battered
distressing
into a despicable
vile-smelling
piece of shit
you could have been addressed
with deference
instead you saved the world

yellow mile
caravans
by mischance
by despotism
walkin`
in faltered movements
with leaden limbs
hurry up
an army of
ineffective soldiers
are struggling
weaponless
to qualify
for an undelivered
spare-part
gain strength
taste the sweat
of a walked yellow mile
without batting an eyelid
please ware someone down
the first may be the last to go
to go more miles in yellow
and flesh will be the winners´ crown
so please ware someone down
sugar the yellow mile
taste the salt of a kidney machine
the salt of a kidney machine
is a mechanical tear
a foul smelling wheel called downhill
graceful symmetry
but nothing without a centre
cheap whore of gravity
moving downhill
shame on you
you debased the idea
of easing
of favour
hear you laughing
at the square root
while breaking someone on the wheel
while you're breaking someone on the wheel
shame on you
debased the idea
of easing
of favour
so listen
to your slaves
if there is no one to dictate
you'll fail
without mankind
you're nothing
the rest is downhill all the way
you'll never betray
can't you smell it my dear
we're burning your candle at both sides
paraffin oiler
between those liquid walls
and more than a thousand degrees
are tidal waves reaching for
the highest stone
and a soul
smelling like his child
the light
a flicker of hope
through the heavy spray
but wonders never cease
this peak
his umbilical cord
those waves are a sword
a vale of fire
is what he needs
to protect himself from the frost
of the deadly deep sea
sinking to the bottom
and deservedly so
even if deck is under water
even if the end is nigh
to the bitter end we are
illuminated by the light
at his heart's rate
or the other way round
like fleshy driftwood
flooded down to the ground
of the sea
this peak
his umbilical cord
those waves are a sword
a vale of fire
is what he needs
to protect himself from the frost
of the deadly deep sea
sinking to the bottom
and deservedly so
maybe it's better to
turn the blood into paraffin
and become a human torch
laughin'
do you see the human torch
at the horizon
no?
it looks like a rising sun
but it isn´t one
nice romantic evening
put a candle on my bald head
after lighting it
wax is running into my eyes
put a blooming rose
behind my ear
after watering it
a thorn is pricking me twice
it´s a nice romantic evening
with me and mother
mother earth
I am your mama´s darling
so spread your legs
i´m coming home
lay myself down
in a lush green meadow
while I start to dream
some ants are crawling up
my arm
open up my mouth
to catch some raindrops
it tastes like
I don´t know
an eagle is circling
over my head
it´s a nice romantic evening
with me and mother
mother earth
I am your mama´s darling
so spread your legs
i´m coming home
damn you, charlie brown
yeah though I walk
through the valley of the evil of the death
i will fear no evil for I am the evilist son
of a bitch in the valley
as I steam down the river of death
i'll fear nothing for I'm the meanest motherfucker
on the river
when I die
bury me face down
so the whole world can kiss my ass
when god open up the gates of hell
the division of evil walked out
fighter by day
lover by night
drunkard by choice
soldier by mistake
we are the unwilling
led by the unqualified
doing the unnecessary
for the ungrateful
fighting for freedom as a state that those
who live in peace will never know
damn you charlie brown
when I die
bury me face down
so the whole world can kiss my ass
the hospice inn
feel your breath as you awake
from lungs you haven't known
this way
the limbs are numb
pain's all to feel
this rotten body a useless remnant
this pain is endless
all's to loathe
just a victim of hypocratic oath
half-dead is what you're called
your body is machine controlled
like a present to despise
as a child in its mother's hands
from which its life depends
you're so helpless and fragile
the focus narrows the mind restricts
to the beauty of the end's bliss
the focus narrows the mind restricts
you want to go
they won't let you
you drown in fear
in endless fear
they torture you
by loving you
you drown in fear
in painful fear
spinster
stonecold
our recollections last embrace
under the windows mine
i hear the banshee´s call
showin´ someone died inside
i guess it´s me
cause no one is missed
penance I have done
and more penance I will do
no sight left but one
the pain
the sun behind the dustbin
washing machine
caustic detergent
takes away the colours
tatters me
and leaves me naked
inject black wisdom
filling every
corner from inside
covering all
levelling contours
take the sun from behind the dustbin
and hang it to its nail again
cheap plastic moulds
all shaped the same
economic efficiency
insignificant
redundancy
pull out the plug
and make it stop
climb on top and peek
through the colourless sad laundry
erebus
not here the white north hath thy bones and thou heroic sailor soul
art passing on thy happier voyage now toward no earthly pole
and it grew wondrous cold
ice came floating
by the drifts and snowy cliffs
did send a dismal sheen
seamen are no enemies
when they are swimming
seamen are no enemies
even if the ice is killing
but they walked - they walked
the frost performed his secret ministry on these days in 1848
while the last crew members died in starvation cove after a long, long march
through the desert of ice
the merciless cold wind knived them
the souls did from
their bodies fly and the great unreal tiredness catched them to end
their agony when the lids been closed
some paused in their grave wandering and turn with profound gesture
vague and slow to
scrape the flesh from bones
of the other men
it stamps over his head
but it cannot break his sleep at least
their tins where soldered with lead

interference prone reflector
don´t we really have nothing than us to see
from west to east
between the poles and back again
the only centres are
we
a big red giant is sending the pain
we call it the sun
this big red giant is sending the pain
the sun feeds our thursty eye and
brain
your fucked up windowpane
is a shame to your panorama of
a room with a view
including your centered eye
which isn´t able to see completely clear(ly)
focusing on what is meaningful
may be the first step for
avoiding to force an open door
mankind has an axe to grind
so let´s melt it
to forge a hammer
sacrify your eyes to see the light
and cut out with broken glass
this interference prone reflector
cut it out
don´t dissect carefully
simply cut it out
cut it

no
more
no more
no more glassy shine
no more glassy shine to be reflected in
your fucked up windowpane
is a shame to your panorama of
a room with a view
including your centered eye
which isn´t able to see completely clear(ly)
we see
so we are
but (less than) a shadow of our former self
there is no denying of the fact that
that our eyes are mirrors in fact
there is no denying that
an infected eye feeds a misguided mind
before we are beyond remedy
honesty is the very, very best, best policy
shatter all
self-satisfied
self-rightous
high-handed
laughing
fucking
mirrors
a mirror is a window´s end
and if you ask me what to do
let´s strike our tents
annex another planet
and start again
pioneer
crossing the unknown places
of dimensionless vacuum-packed possibilities
may we believe in something
beyond the curtain of human
inabilities
please
don´t say nothing
please don´t send "no"
the farest pioneer ever known
pioneer please never glow
in mind we are dancing with you
between the smiling stars makin´ love
wishing this planet
the almighty essence
called confidence
the farest pioneer ever known
but we´re still alone
this deaf and dumb desert
has a lack of cold comfort
like a new moon
a second sun
a shooting star
falling to where it all begun
we´re missing you badly
widely ramified is our mind
but the eye is you
while we´re fading away
day by day
in mind we are dancing with you
between those smiling stars
wishing this planet the almighty essence
called confidence
pioneer, please don´t go
you´ll never returen I know
even if your mission will fail
an will forever be uncompleted
some people down here can not do
forget what you´ve done
nor can i
don´t worry my friend
we´ll try again
take care of you
to kill a hill and move a mountain
in front of a mountain
they stand
peak´s too high
too high for climbing
on top of a mountain
they stand
and down in the valley
is a phoenix dying
did they ever compare silver to gold
shovelling, shovelling and digging through
what is perforating you
every little leaden world they said
exploded to ashes
in mighty shockwaves
and buried us under a heavy crust
of misleaded silver
gold
we don´t weight every word
but if the words are dying
but if the words are dying
why doesn´t the speaker follow immediately
shovelling, shovelling and digging through
what is perforating you
as we are caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
becoming weaker and weaker
our spirit is willing but the flesh is weak
it´s a pity
we are unable to cause a storm of protest
a storm of relieving decontaminating protest ain´t a storm in a teacup
our laid open gold
bright shiny shimmering
so much more than glass would ever be able to
don´t let the next tea stand for the rest of your life…
time is up
spew up the pieces of silver and refresh yourself by the holy vein of gold
come on now
our valley has waited for ages for the miners to come
phoenix is spreading it´s wings
when we drive our shovels deep into the crust in a moment of scorn
genesis has to be written again
when the sun will be blinded by the laid open gold in its purest form
when the sun will be blinded by the laid open gold in its purest form
i´m the least common denominator
to kill a hill and move a mountain
to kill a hill and move yourself
to kill a hill and move a mountain
and perforate what is perforating you
to kill a hill and move a mountain
to kill a hill and move
to kill a hill and move a mountain
i am the hill the mountain is you
become a miner
