Attack or drawback sets the scene
You choose to castle but need the queen
No better victim your move betrays
You’re afraid of losing so you don’t play
So you resign before you start
Move every piece to guard your heart
You’re the king of your own kingdom
Who just hides behind the walls
You resign before you start
You forgot the greatest part
You’re the prison of the prisoners
You are chained by your own bars
Can you breathe the air I’m breathing?
Can you feel the breeze, it’s fleeting
Can you see what I am seeing?
What is true for the time being?
Oh-oh there’s blue sky above us
Oh-oh there’s blue sky above us
Your soul is choking on the lack of space
Ego and pride turn on themselves
You play the cool observer, but not the game
So whoever’s winning, it’s never your name
So you resign before you start
Move every piece to guard your heart
You’re the king of your own kingdom
Who just hides behind the walls
You resign before you start
You forgot the greatest part
You’re the prison of the prisoners
You are chained by your own bars
Can you breathe the air I’m breathing?
Can you feel the breeze, it’s fleeting
Can you see what I am seeing?
What is true for the time being?
Oh-oh there’s blue sky above us
Oh-oh there’s blue sky above us

Lullaby

|

|
Two bodies, side by side
You dead asleep, my eyes opened wide
As close as distant
Your steady breath and the ticking time
Are singing me nightly lullabies
Who am I in your dreaming mind
And you don’t hear my heart beating, you don’t, you don’t
You don’t hear my heart beating, you don’t, you don’t
Could you sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep
Could you sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep
Casual touches, skin to skin
I carry them, smoldering within
are we burnt or blazin’
I’m both a dreamer and a realist
This could be romantic, this could be selfish
Here under the sky of trivial
And you don’t hear my heart beating, you don’t, you don’t
You don’t hear my heart beating, you don’t, you don’t
Could you sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep
Could you sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep
Couldn’t you sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep
Couldn’t you sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep

By Now

I still long for you
though I don’t know
who you’ve become by now
I still long for you
though I don’t know
who you’ve become by now
I don’t wanna take a walk down memory lane
I’ve just had enough of that
These pictures in my head, they are too good to be true
like time has decided to sort out some of them
I run into these two lovers
two lovers who I know are strangers now, their now
No, I don’t want to take a walk down memory lane
so why am I here again and again
I still long for you
though I don’t know
who you’ve become by now
I still long for you
though I don’t know
who you have become by now

Eye Of The Storm
03:29
|

|
Between lightning, rain and thunder
You are fighting, but you flounder
you’re worn out, your strength is fading
but you still can’t see the ending
Scars of self-destructive patterns
Carved under thin skin
you see failure in the mirror
and the emptiness within
The lie you live, the lie you love,
is spinning in the wind
the life you lived, the life you loved
It’s the same but different
You can‘t calm your mind
You can‘t find rest
You are the eye of the storm
You can’t escape
In the quiet morning after
Loneliness replaces laughter
You pull back no pushing forward
Your home a house of disorder
Spoken words meant to comfort
Caring voices only shatter
You see failure in the mirror
Reflected emptiness matters
The lie you live, the lie you love,
is spinning in the wind
the life you lived, the life you loved
It’s the same but different
You can‘t calm your mind
You can‘t find rest
You are the eye of the storm
You can’t escape

Rest In Peace

You are my partner, my friend and my worst enemy
you know my thoughts, my desires and my deepest fears
and you use it, whenever you get a chance
Cause you are anxious, alarmist and so full of doubts
you cling to my worries and don’t let them go
you creep in, slowly freezing my mind
Rest in peace my friend
I’m backing out of your command
here’s to you, here’s to me,
here’s to our friendship’s end.
You are such a good talke, you talk me down
you throw weight in the lightness ‘til I start to drown
and your dark thoughts become my own
I know you’re trying protect me
but don’t you fret I’ll find my way
I will grow with every step I’ll make
Rest in peace my friend
I’m backing out of your command
here’s to you, here’s to me,
here’s to our friendship’s end.
(My heart is a place full of warmth and protection)
(Keep knocking on my door, but I won’t let you in)
(I’ll be deaf for you beating me with my deficiencies)
(and learn to love the one under this skin, cause…)
Everytime that you start talking
you drown out every word of love
and every time you keep on talking
they die away a little more
You are my partner, my friend and my worst enemy
you know my thoughts, my desires and my deepest fears
and you use it, whenever you get a chance
