Barefoot

Barefoot

Barefoot standing in the spotlight
Crowds are watching me
Standing on flowers of nails
And needles like grass

I'm literally naked, they are gazing into my eyes
Do i have anything to say
I open up my mouth
Small human raise your voice

I hear, I, I hear, I
I hear sentences in the night
From a heart that's
I hear, I, I hear, I
From my heart that is broken
From a heart that is mine

I refuse to let my age decide
Wether i am strong enough
I refuse to let their expectations kill my love for them
So here i stand, and i will stand like steel
But i bend my head every morning
Because this is not my own
This is not my own

I hear, I, I hear, I
I hear sentences in the night
From a heart that's
I hear, I, I hear, I
From my heart that is broken
From a heart that is mine

I hear, I, I hear, I
I hear sentences in the night
From a heart that's
I hear, I, I hear, I...

I can see them smiling
But they look around
And will turn away
I wish that they would come

Lady of my life

You say lady of my life
Will you follow me
You say lady of my life
Take my hand

How i enjoy every minute
That i spend with you
How i enjoy every word
That you have written
I somehow seem to forget
Over and over
That you are there
But still

You say lady of my life
Will you follow me
You say lady of my life
Take my hand
You say lady of my life
You are everything
You say lady of my life
I love you

There have been days
There have been years
Someone says it always will
There have been moments
Even though that i'm still young
I've built walls with happiness
Built walls with pain
And with things beyond my understanding
But through all of this

You say...

Suspicion

I run along with my suspicion
We are hand in hand smiling
Kissing under trees and under stars
Never let anybody into our house

I married my suspicion last year
We have been very happy every since
If you want to talk to me
Talk to my suspicion first

I run along with my suspicion
I am sorry, i am not allowed to believe
I trust my suspicion no reason to go
Behind the mask

I married my suspicion last year
We have been very happy every since
If you want to talk to me
Talk to my suspicion first

I ran along with my suspicion
Lately things have started to change
My heart has become cold and quiet
No one is calling, no one comes in

I call to ask for separation
Maybe it is better that we live apart
For some time
It's good to have some reservation
I think i may have crossed the
Line, though...

Blue painting

Philharmonic sounds surrounding her head
Noise can't be turned off
Nothing can come through to her
Fingers playing the cello, loud and strong

Shut her thoughts in caves of music
Shut her tears in caves of sound
Shut her fears in caves of solutions
They will come out

Smile to the doorway
Smile to the lamp
Smile to everyone except
The one who is smiling at you

Steel is soft compared to her stubbornness
At least the stubbornness of this kind
Her face shows no sign of lightness
Her face is cold and calm

Smile to the doorway
Smile to the lamp
Smile to everyone except
The one who is smiling at you

Smile to everyone except
The one you painted blue
The one who died for you

Hidden poetry

She stole my sentence, stole my pen
I tried my best to get it back again
She hit me hard with a strong hand
I made a grin and left the land

I missed the train, i can't get home
Got no more money on my phone
I sleep outside and here i'll stay
'Cause once i'm here, won't go away

Poetry written so no one can hear
My nervous scream, my endless fear
My dream

All my words chosen carefully
Will not stand in the way, will not jump
In the sea
Where is the hope, where is the truth
My answers are drowned in the name of my youth
I press my nose against the floor
Won't do it again, never done it before
My belly buttons starts to burn
The greatest concern is what i earn

Poetry written so no one can hear
My nervous scream, my endless fear
My dream

Shake her hand
And leave her
Take her tongue and say her words
Society can't be explained
I'll leave it to the birds

Poetry written so no one can hear
My nervous scream, my endless fear
My dream

Poison in my wine

There is poison in my wine
There is cold snow in my shoes
The are footprints on my window frame
The dog is loose

I scream but i can't hear a word
I cry my eyes are filled
My toes are fake
My legs are thin
I'll never win

In vain i try to compose
The greatest symphony

The crowd who point their fingers
The crowd who i hear laugh
Are making my knees shiver
Are making my hands week
There is one little star on the sky
When i sleep i can hear somebody cry

Alone i can do nothing, alone i stand alone

The last waltz

I cry while i leave the house
Pictures are staring at me
And they call me a trader
I bend my head and i take my bags

My mother an father are sleeping
Next door, my sisters and brothers
Would laugh at me if i told them
The reason i have to escape like this

All that i leave behind
All the things i know i'll miss
But this so very important to me
But this so very important to me

He has been waiting for me in the shadows
I can see his face is relieved when i come
He'd take my bags and he'd take my hand
I'd turn my head and i'd look behind
I know i will never go back

The stones will cry

If i'm still the stones will cry
If i'm still the trees will clap their hands
If i'm still the mountains will roar

If i'm still the ocean will whisper
If i'm still the houses will cry out
Instead of me

Who can hide a secret reviled
Who can stop a running fire
Like a deer thirsting for water
I long for more of you Top

18 degrees

From side to side
Can't get no sleep
The music just annoys
Sentences on repeat

Standing between the cold
And the warm
Opens and closes his eyes
Standing between the dark
And the light
Grey an 18 degrees

Wakes up but doesn't know if
He slept
Opens his eyes but doesn't know if
They were closed
Got a message on his answering machine
Nobody's home
No his not home

I once heard a boy

I once heard a boy who said "god is asleep"
I ripped off my clothes and i started to weep
As i cried out and yelled and i stamped my feet
To wake him up

I once heard a girl who said that "god is dead"
My soul started shaking and so did my head
And i could not protest because i lost my voice
And my world started to rumble

I went to the doctor, i went to the shrink
They gave me some pills, and they told me to think
They suggested to me that i'd lay down and rest
It would pass in year maybe two

Well, i ran to the mountains, i climbed to the top
The wind started blowing and lifted me up
As i flew over the city i heard that my name
Was spoken tenderly

I went to the doctor, i went to the shrink
They gave me some pills, and they told me to think
They suggested to me that i'd lay down and rest
It would pass in year maybe two

I once heard a boy who said "god is asleep"
I ripped of my clothes and i started to weep
How to tell them about my believe

Before she goes to bed

She's tired
Just speaking with her eyes
Before she goes to bed
Not up some long conservation
Her feet's a bit cold
Her smile a bit old

Has not been eating for a while
Has not been drinking
It's like she's captured in her body
She just longs to get out
Someday just run
Run without thinking of her breath

She just longs to let her thoughts fly
And run with her white long dress
Through long fields
Brown and wild
Like a child
Like them

The last page

The girl writes on the last page
And the pencil is nearly dry
There can't be no mistakes
'Cause these words will be final
He's been waiting for a letter for days
The inspiration is gone, the wind flew away
All the trees that once were green
Are all ready for bed

All the greats symphonies, all the great poems and books
They've been sung, they've been said, they've been written
And they have been read
Close you eyes fold your hands i can see you are tired
Let him wait just another day more
He won't die, he won't cry still the night may be sad
But it's better with nothing than bad

The sun flirts with the ocean
And soon a whole new day will rise
Smile to the paper, lay down your hand
I am sure he will understand
Lick the envelope, put a stamp on the corner
And I promise you that it won't be long
Before the letter is finally there

All the greats symphonies, all the great poems and books
They've been sung, they've been said, they've been written
And they have been read
Close you eyes fold your hands i can see you are tired
Let him wait just another day more
He won't die, he won't cry still the night may be sad
But it's better with nothing than bad...

Arie for my king

Violin play my song
These notes are made of tones
Candle burn my flame
This fire is made of water
My eyes are now dry to see
The road a head of me

Ocean play my scream
These notes are made of cream
I have searched to find answers
Ocean play my yell
My throat is now clear to sing
An arie for my king

Behind closed doors

2 minutes and 10 hours

In 2 minutes and 10 hours
You will call me up
And say that you have to leave me
But i still don't know that
So i look at the stars and i smile
I'm happy

In 2 minutes and 10 hours
You will call me
And that will be the last thing i heard from you
But i still don't know that
So i look at the stars and i smile
I'm happy

I look into the mirror and laugh
You said that you had something important to say
I picture myself
In that long white dress

In 2 minutes and 10 hours
I will look the receiver
And hear the song from you crying
But i still don't know that
So i look at balloons and i laugh
I'm happy

Kingdom

I've got a place in the kingdom
I can hear the noise of the hammer
Voices of those who decorate my room
I've got a place in the kingdom
Like a bridge i am walking
Waiting for my groom

He is tall
He is gracious
I can hear the noise of the hammer
I know i can recognize
Voices of those who decorate my room top

Hiding place

Where is my hiding place if not in thy castle
Pain steams from my self minded heart
Forrest of words i'm lost in your darkness
Silence are you an enemy or a friend
Reconsidering my constructions
I have built up a tower
I have built up a shelter
With stones of words
My mind's throwing words back at me
I scream
Where is the heart
Where is he heart of man

Where is the steadfast joy
If not in thy presence
Empty empty empty i burn down
Oh consuming fire take me over
To what i no longer understand
Reconsidering my constructions
I have built up a tower
I have built up a shelter
With stones of words
I can hear you
And i lay down my sword
As i cry holy holy holy

It's not a matter of

I don't say that it ain't an offer
I don't say it won't give me pain
It's not a matter of season
I've given this away
But the joy it brings is so much greater
And the fear is so much less
I don't say i'll always be smiling
I don't say all days will be bright
It's not a matter of season
I've given this away
But my heart can't stop the beating
And my feet can't stop the dance

Beauty queen

Beauty queen
Follow all the way under
There is lightening and thunder
At my road
But i know you will find secrets lying
All around when you're dying
From yourself
In my well

Trust me i am right here behind you
Shouting so you can know when to turn
Trust me i have walked here before
And i know every shore in this well
You can dwell here

Train under water

A tiny ray of light is sneaking up from under water
Maybe a lonely fisherman can notice it sometimes
My guess is that the light is gonna before somebody sees it
The reason of this mystic thing is mad up in my mind

Down in the dark i hear a song from the wagon 57
Hear dancing steps and polka tunes
Men and women laugh
Reflections in the water give impressions of some faces
A castle built of gold and diamonds deep deep in the sand

Train under water can someone see the light

The reason of this celebration beats my understanding
But i will not prefer another sight than just what's there
The fisherman is fishing and the music has no ending
Meanwhile there are seagulls swimming through the atmosphere

Train under water can someone see the light

The man who left his past

He is sure of his acts
This time he will make it right
Buys a ticket to the future
Only happiness in sight
Nothing is to stop him now
But as the bus is leaving town
He can see the houses crying over people he let down
Free from all the expectations
He is ready for a life
He is done with situations that brought trouble
Hate and strife
But he cannot forget the memories
The good times with his friends
He once did think he knew them
Until they broke down all his fences

In the town there's people hurting
People that can't understand
Why the son of life and gladness is moving to another land
There's no number they can call to
No addresses left to write
No goodbye hugs for children
No more kisses as goodnight
From the heavens i hear noises from the bottle counting tears
And a hundred men are writing songs and poetry of fears
Only time can heal a broken heart
I once heard a wise man say
But for the man who left his past
Will time just send him further away
Will he come back again

Richard

Richard my little boy
Bring back the memories
Of how it was
When i was young
Richard my little boy
Bring back the feeling
Of how it was
To sing a new song

I watch an elderly woman on a bench in the park
I see a doll on her lap i can hear her sing out loud
Richard my little boy
Bring back the memories
Of how it was
When i was young

Richard my little friend
Always listen carefully to your heart
In all that you do
Richard my little friend
Take all my words
And build up a world
With letters from them

Years have painted her hair and colored her face
She has lost all her loved ones this park is her
Sacred place
Richard my little friend
Take all my words
And build up a world
With letters from them

You want to buy it instead

You hit the door with you head
Searching for that which is good
The bruises is part of the way
You say it will give you a higher crown

You hit the door with your head
The noise is so loud every time
Your head meets the steal
Desire so much to get in

They tell you the door is already open
You may enter, you may come

You hit the door with your head
You want to buy it instead

Behind closed doors

Just to get these thoughts in order
This is not an easy life
Still my burdens are cast over
To a man which i call friend
Have your way in me
I cry out my soul screams
Have your way in me

Tired of confusions
This power is so strong i know
My feelings are quarreling with me again
But I know that i am right
Love that grips me
Love that holds me closer than a man can ever do
Love that grips me
I whisper softly behind closed doors
I love you

Late at night

I see people turning off their lights in their houses
It's late at night
I hear whispers from outside my door

Gentle feet
Walking in silence
So i won't wake up from my sleep
But i hear them anyway

Late at night

I remember our sentences
Said and pronounced in all different way
Melodies inside my head
Keeping me company

Gentle feet
Walking in silence
So i won't wake up from my sleep
But i hear them anyway

Late at night

Frail

Too many days

Too many days I wake up with an aching
Too many days have been wasted like sand
Too many hours have gone by without notice
Too many times i’ve let go of your hand

Lay by the sea, bury all of your fear
Lady lay
Lay by the sea, you are wild, you are free
You are daughter of mercy, daughter of strength

All of the time I’m reminded of failures
My tongue has bathed in spit from a thief
(I am) dancing as close as I can to desire
(I am) repeating my shortcomings loud to myself

Lay by the sea, bury all of your fear
Lady lay
Lay by the sea, you are wild, you are free
You are daughter of mercy, daughter of strength

Too many years have been wasted like money
Too many nights I wake up with a cry
Too many years have gone by without notice
Too many times I have wanted to die

Lay by the sea, bury all of your fear
Lady lay
Lay by the sea, you are wild, you are free
You are daughter of mercy, daughter of strength

The snow has killed

You promised to give me a garden
You promised to give me a song
But the snow has killed all the flowers
And the winter seems to be long

It’s Christmas time and you’re hurting me
It’s Christmas time and you’re hurting me
It’s Christmas time and you’re hurting me
Again

You gave me your word of protection
You gave me your word and a smile
While the darkness covered our faces,
The morning discovered the ice

It’s Christmas time and you’re hurting me
It’s Christmas time and you’re hurting me
It’s Christmas time and you’re hurting me
Again

Kissing me

You beside me
I have tried to hide all I can hide
Afraid you’ll see me
And be scared by all the thoughts i’ve tied

Reconciliation
My pride dying every day
Days of wondering
Confusion playing all it’s games

You, holding me
I am holding my breath in dismay
You, kissing me
Kissing me

Slowly melting water,
Clean the dirt and clean some space
Right beside me
I can smell vibrations from your face

You, holding me
I am holding my breath frightfully
You, kissing me
Kissing me

You, holding me
I am holding my breath frightfully
You, kissing me
Kissing me

Take my heart away

Winter skies
I felt nice
Went to dance
You asked me for romance

I fell down
To the ground
You said
Don’t be afraid
I’m here to stay

Take my heart away

Clouds were thick
I got panic
All my thoughts
Are influenced by fear

Logic failed
I am nailed
Warm hand come
And break my chains today

Take my heart away
Take my heart I’m lost
Please show a way

Mr. Iceman

I will love you Mr. Iceman
Even though I know you do not want my love at all
I will love you Mr. Iceman
Even though you say you do not need someone who cares

You know i’ve seen your bitter smile
You know i’ve seen your shaking heart behind that suit
You know I know about your mother

I will love you Mr. Iceman
Even though I know you do not want my love at all

You know i’ve seen your tears at night
You know i’ve seen your shaking heart behind that suit
You know I know of all your troubles

Pain

I’ve got pain in my body
But I’m sure it will pass
I’ve got pain in my body
But I’m sure it will pass

Now, my father died of a deadly disease
And my mother died of a deadly disease

I’ve got pain in my body
But I’m sure it will pass I've got pain in my body
I don’t need any doctor, no
I’ve got pain in my body
I don’t need any healer

Now, my sister died of a deadly disease
And my brother died of a deadly disease

I’ve got pain in my body
But I’m sure it will pass
But I’m sure it will pass at last

Natural silence

Natural silence surrounding my words
I am longing for more and you open your hand

As I grab what you give me I am covered in blood
Simple song, are you simple

And I laugh while I’m dancing
And I cry while I kneel

Restless girl

She’s addicted to her own pain
She’s been listening to that song so many times
Her tears, her only drink
To herself she’s a stranger

Restless girl
You’ve got a home but you do not see it
Restless girl
What is your fear

Her mind is full of anger
Still there’s no one to blame
Her hate is getting stronger
So, she yells and curses his name

Restless girl
You’ve got a home but you do not see it
Restless girl
What is your fear

Restless girl
You’ve got a home but you do not see it
Restless girl
What is your fear

The blue tones are calling you again and you follow
The voices are calling you again and you listen to them
They tell you how weak you are
And you, you… you give them right

Restless girl
You’ve got a home but you do not see it
Restless girl
What is your fear

Will you say

Will you say you recognize my voice
Will you say you have enjoyed our conversations
Will you say you recognize my voice
Will you take my hand, will we rejoice
On that day, when we meet
Will you hug me and say
I have heard you
I have heard you pray

Will you recognize my voice
Will you say
Oh that is her
Will you say
I have been longing to see you face to face
I have seen you
And although you’ve made mistakes
I have heard you when you pray
I have heard you pray

Because I'm dead

I want no fire on my gown
I want to run for golden crown
Not that the crown is final goal
But final rest for tired soul

Will There Be Spring

Moonlight

Fill me with moonlight
Fill me with sunshine
I've not been sleeping for days

Tell me my name now
Tell me my address
I do not know who I am

Wildest day

Hope is low
When a new day comes
Heavy breathing, arms are numb
Push my mouth to smile

Sun is up and I am down
Crawling in a sphere of sound
Painting on my soul
Cover up my wholes

Finding reasons to give in
Is there still a crown to win
Do I have the faith
Walls of noise are caving in
Cars and trucks and waves of sin
I'm stealing thoughts to think

Sweet and sound and fine is he
Who knows the dark, knows my song
He reaches down he reaches down

And with his love
I'll find my way
Through deepest dark
And wildest day
Yes, with his love
Yes, with his love
Yes, with his love
I'll find my way
I'll find my way

Where Do People Go

Tell me how it is
I know how it is
I just want to know
Where do people go

Tell me how it works
You will soon find out
I just need to see
What makes people free

Wisdom comes from you
(Wisdom comes from you)
Wisdom comes from you
(Wisdom comes from you)
Wisdom comes from
Wisdom comes from you

All My Thoughts

I'm not sure
If I dare to think of you
I don't know you
Still you have all my thoughts
At the moment

What do you think
It's all wondering and dreams
I'm afraid to give too much
Hope too much
But I'm longing

Is it true
That behind all this beauty is a lie
They try to convince me
Is it true
That behind all this beauty is a lie

Is it true
That behind all this beauty is a lie
They try to convince me
Is it true
That behind all this beauty is a lie

I'm not sure
If I dare to think of you
I don't know you
I don't know you

Ocean needs water

Afraid to break a hidden rule
That would make you believe that I don't love you anymore
Afraid to do some unconscious thing
That would make you believe that I don't trust you anymore

But I need you
Like the forest needs water to live
Yes I need you
Like the forest needs water to live
I need you to live

Afraid to break a hidden rule
That would make you believe that I don't love you anymore
Afraid to do some unconscious things
That would make you believe that I don't need you anymore

But I need you
Like the forest needs water to live
And I need you
Like the ocean needs water to stay
I need you to stay
I need you to stay
Need you to stay

Different Seasons

Bye
I'm telling this good-bye
Bye
I'm too tired to cry

I know it's only an illusion
They say it's only an illusion
I guess it's only an illusion
They say it's only an illusion

Try
It's not too late to try
Try
My fear has got to die

I know it's only an illusion
They say it's only an illusion
I guess it's only an illusion
They say it's only an illusion

Take my heart away revisited

Winter skies
I felt nice
Went to dance
You asked me for romance

I fell down
To the ground
You said
Don’t be afraid
I’m here to stay

Take my heart
Take my heart away

Clouds were thick
I got panic
All my thoughts
Are influenced by fear

Logic failed
I am nailed
Warm hand come
And break my chains today

Take my heart
Take my heart away
Take my heart I’m lost
Please show a way

Burn the books

Burn the books
They are telling me too many things
Got the looks
I guess that's all that matters
Give me space
I have already all i can get
More and more, more and more
And more

Find my star
I've looked at it for answers
I've got scars
From people telling me directions
Bury me
Hide me from my future
Want to have
Those camel knees I've heard of
Heard of

Pray with me
Pray for better mornings
Hard to fill
All my expectations
Cry with me
Cry for the forgiveness
From the Only One
The Only One can give us
Peace

Juice

I'm writing this while waiting for you feet to come back home
The summer is soon knocking on my door and I'm alone
You say you believe in future, happiness and pain
Sun and rain
You laugh and smile while you mess up my brain

I try to stay as stable as I can when I'm with you
I talk about these normal things that normal people do
You say you are tired of the politics and news
"Give me juice"
But I've only got milk, so I'm confused

Imagining and awakening
Hours before the "I do"
On my wedding day

Imagining and awakening
Hours before the "I do"
Oh...

I'm writing this while waiting for you feet to come back home
The summer is soon knocking on my door and I'm alone
You say you believe in future, happiness and pain
Sun and rain
You laugh and smile while you mess up my brain

You – Every Morning

I long to be with you every morning
Building a home for your children and mine
Walking through deep, dark, wild forest together
With a good shepherd who's leading the way

Trying to find a good reason to leave you
Giving my self a fair chance to regret
But you unarm me with your gentle stories
Telling me truth while you took me to bed

Walking through deep, dark, wild forest together
With a good shepherd who's leading the way

Mountain song

Even the wildest at heart will
Sleep at the sound of your voice
Mountains and stones will all tremble
Melting a river of gold

I do not know all your wonders
I even forget who you are
But when my days are all over
I hope to see all the things
I´ve been told

Even the wildest at heart will
Sleep at the sound of your voice
Mountains and stones will all tremble
Melting a river of gold

I do not know all your wonders
I even forget who you are
But when my days are all over
I hope to see all the things
I´ve been told
