Songs that i write
On this page i will publish lyrics of new songs - that i have not recorded yet, but feel that need a space somewhere. Or old songs on request.
You cant make me say i love you (2023)
You can't make me say i love you
You think i'm not thinking of you
That everything you do
makes me want less of you
That I'm just waiting for another lover
You say that i don't care for you
Do you want me to adore you?
Here you are next to me
My love's more than you see
Why did I decide to be your lover?
Now say anything you can
I once was proud that you're my man
words of love
deeds of man
this is us - this is then
Truth is that we were just random lovers
this world is full of stuff (2024)
Oh this world is full of stuff that I'd miss
(Am g c d.)
Full of oceans and of dust
C g
And of bliss
C
(Em d g)
Full of sunlight and of mist
F g
Full of stories that Ive missed
F g
(Em d g d c d c d)
Full of shadows and of doubt
F g
But I'm proud to be alive
C g c
And it's life that I'd miss
(CDG)
Here's the songs that I have found
Oh this world is full of stuff that I'd miss
Like the love we left in songs
Just like this
Like the things that we believe in
We were sneakily mischievin
Always plotting always scheming
But its love we finally deal in
C g em
We will leave this world a better place
You are not alone (2024)
I wish we weren't scattered
Like seeds in the wind
I wish we weren't islands divided by the sea
Like rifted lands of canyons
And rivers running wild
Keeping us apart
I wonder what it's like to be you
But I will never know
Cos I am me and
You are you
And neither knows the other
Now and then we touch
Now and then we see
Though I am always on the other side
You are not alone
I feel everything around me
I don't know where I begin and where I end
I am all pain, I am all sorrow
But I'm also joy
What do I feel? And what's not mine?
I am never really me
I am what other people say
I put on other people's skin
I say words that come out wrong
I sing tunes that no one knows
We speak in tongues we do not know
Will we ever be able
to look each other in the eye
I'm a ghost that walks in sleep
Im other people's fear
I'm not there If not plugged in
Swans (2024)
We're angels with wet wings
Some might say that we sing
Some might say we are swans
We are angels that swim
And you let your guard down
That's when I fell
And I let my guard down
That's when we fell
Some might say we are clowns
We do not care
Sometimes we might be down
Sometimes we sing
You found me in the desert (2024)
you found me in the desert
fallen from the sky
trying to figure out
what kind of alien am i
you were running down
that hill
with bare feet in the snow
we both sat in trees
and walked our paths alone
love - lets start again
love - one more time
love - i could sing you all day
My heart is in the wind (2023)
https://youtu.be/ENvQN-Qfc30
My heart is in the wind tonight
it catches fire like this
there's not been rain for many months
too many nights i missed
My heart is like a warrior
it seeks out wars to fight
it's lonely in these cosy spots
its cold out in the sun
How can i reach you when you're gone
what is it that we have
where's the connection that i seek
why do we call it love
I want you to feel my pain
I want to feel yours too
let's go down deep
we never do...
my heart is longing too
My heart it is a fickle thing
it's all over the place
it barks at trees and jumps on things
i lose it on the way
I wish that i could hold it still
and keep it in my palm
the more i try
the more i move
the more it's gone astray
You cant make me say i love you (2023)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyHw31LkIjA
You can't make me say i love you
You think i'm not thinking of you
But everything i do
makes me want more of you
i'm so glad that you're my lover
You say that i don't care for you
Do you want me to adore you?
Here you are next to me
My love's more than you see
I'm so glad that you're my lover
Now say anything you can
I'm so proud that you're my man
words of love
deeds of man
this is us - this is them
I'm so glad that i can be with you
The Coldest Winter (2021)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LdmwwZMTlU
1
A Quick one while my baby is away
I don’t know why I wanted him to stay
He’s the only one that I can hold
In these days and nights as they unfold
2
We got ashes on our fingers everyday
Wait for the wind to carry them away
We hope for light when darkness just won’t lift
We’ve finally come to see life as a gift
Chorus:
And we wonder as nights go by
How long its gonna take
3
The winter leaves its frostbites on our hands
If we attempt to touch or make a mence
The snow it falls and falls and wouldn’t stop
And southern winds make avalanches drop
4
We close the windows well to shield the cold
My baby’s got a rash that just won’t go
We wear our faces straight to keep us sane
And hope the winter finally goes away
5
Just a month to go until its spring
Just another thought to which we cling
Just a month in which we dare not move
Just a month, a month that becomes two
6
We scrape the barell well to find some cash
Just when you think you’re done they push you back
We will finally rise up from our knees
And end the plight and all the misery
And finally say it clear:
No more we’ll take no more
Invisible Songs (Divers' disease) - 2020
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jx6LW7O3jQ
The antidote is always in the poison
we carry it in everything we do
we're drowning in invisible oceans
cos we wake up so fast we cannot breathe
chorus:
and we go and sing invisible songs
joined by ghosts in clinic halls
joined by lovers on window sills
baffled by the speed it kills
cant stop this song
2)
Imaginary elephants between us
we lead them on imaginary strings
police comes round we hide it in a crack
that tears up the reality we see
chorus
3)
Last night i dreamed my daddy died of roses
there were so many songs we hadnt sung
so many questions that i hadnt asked him
i was prepared but couldnt help but cry
Chorus - add:
It haunts the mighty in their sleep
fearing for the peace they keep
cant stop this song
she is me (2008)
this little girl is my butterfly
she lived silently and sad
i ignored her for years
although im crying her tears
although i see what she sees
although im her and she is me
chorus
i cry when she cries
i ache when she aches
i laugh when she laughs
i bleed when she bleeds
i could take her by the hand
i could take her in my arms and watch her grow with love
i could look after her
i could be the one who cares
could protect her when shes scared
i could make sure shes alright
chorus
i think the stars are fine tonight
they guide me when i need a hand and hang my head down low
please encourage her to walk
please encourage her to talk
let her know she can smile
let her know she can try a new life
Do you ever feel the planet move (2019)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0byoLNmjBw
Do you ever feel the planet move
Can you feel the pace, can you feel the truth
we've been so old since the day we were born
we've been so old and we've been so torn
although we have not lived at all
Can you feel the rage that we're all in
Do you know the age you are within
Will we ever stop feeling small
Will we ever feel grown at all
Should we act our age at all
Can you feel your heart expanding
Can you feel the beat extending
Will it stop when it reached full size
Should it ever stop at all
As it's growing still by the day
All that you need is your heart (2018)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vo3yOYoHA2k
1) got my hand in my pocket and head in the air
wherever im headed im already there
the unattainable, wonderful life
its been living under my belt for a while
what you thought was a dream that will never come true
you've been living it already unknown to you
Chorus
wherever you wanna go
whoever you wanna be
whoever you think that you need
all that you need is your heart
2) the most important love of your life
is yourself and not some imaginary wife
the imperfection and mess you have made
is the perfect way to spend your days
there comes a moment of beauty and truth
when you see all the beauty and loving in you
chorus
got my hand in my pocket and head in the air
wherever im headed im already there
the imperfection and mess you have made
is the perfect way to spend your days
there comes a moment of beauty and truth
when you see all the beauty and loving in you
chorus
Cowboy love (2018)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dx_VsaRvCTk
They were two cowboys in love
a story never heard of
one stood always on the side
while the other took a ride
like two ohio lovers
one dreamed of the other
they were never meant to be
they were never meant to bleed
chorus
who will draw first
who will move first
who will shoot first
if i move will you shoot in the dirt
two hours they were stood there
a standoff was in the air
they will live in stories
and songs will sing their glory
a dry moon shines at midnight
time took time off for this fight
high noon wasnt good enough
this was not their kind of love
chorus
ooh ooh ooh (2006)
Now you’re distinctly out of sight
another distant light in life
with all the battles that we fought
isolated empty cold
with all the things i could expect
the least likely was regret
with all the things that i could do
i never thought id fall for you
Ooh ooh ooh
My sight is blinded by my thought
Jealousy and raging wars
with all the battles that we fought
isolated empty cold
just as easy it could be
this violated empty me
might as well just take a stand
make this bloody war and end
Ooh ooh ooh
And i’m still waiting for the day
that will make us find a way
Find a way to understand
i might as well just take your hand
me and you against the wall
isolated empty small
the most wonderful of all
we were not smart enough to fall
House on fire (drowning sea) (2018)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kch2MiehVGM
we get on like a house on fire
and it burns us to the ground
can't resist to the flame
will it burn me to the ground
enter me slowly through the door to my mind
enter this ocean swim through me
u are a drug that carries me
u are a drug my dear
the fish are drowning
so is the sea (coda)
since we came to talk until this day
i dont know who we are
i have found a simple logic
to this life
it never stops to breathe
Pure and broken like us (2018)
www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrOfsjG4xHw
I like the colour of his eyes
he doesnt know the beauty in them
as night falls asleep with him
i cant help but look at him
i like the colour of his heart
he doesnt think he's worthy of love
as night falls asleep with us
i cant help but look at him
i wanna sing songs that are pure and broken like us
i like the colour of his shadow
he equals mine and their holding hands
i like the shadow of his story
they're whispering secrets to each other
i wanna sing songs that are pure and broken like us
Songs to sing (2018)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDigVjOCMCU
there's an ocean of sadness inside me
and it will never go away
its always been there
it is my own and i cherish it
it cant dry it up and i dont want it to
it's a resource of strength
it's being a woman
i know that you hurt too, babe
i know men feel it too
we both felt it for a moment
when we fell into each others eyes
we connected our oceans
and swam back and forth
we poured ourselves into each other
i never understood that hurricane that blew us
and removed the roof of my house
so here i still am and the rain is getting in
with everyone to look in
in the morning when i wake
i open my eyes
and im glad that im alive, im so glad that im alive
there will always be music, music to dance to
rivers to look at
and songs to sing
We will fight back (2017)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyHKlwtBH2E&t=1s
don't take away our right to choose
we know that you want us to lose
don't drive us back into the home
we're here to stay, we're not alone
chorus
and if you do
we will fight back
we are many
you are few
don't take away our union rights
don't squeeze our wages
we are prepared to fight
don't take away our social state
don't spread your lies
don't spread your hate
chorus
your house is built on slippy sand
your lies will crumble in the end
they only liked you cos you're new
when you're in power you show your true colours
chorus II
and when you do
we will fight back
we are many
you are few
Arbeiterlied 1918 (2008)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCZ-y8Fsty4&t=3s
1) der krieg nahm unsre brüder fort
und brot hatten wir keins
drum legten wir die arbeit still
kommt leute reiht euch ein
2) in russland war der krieg schon aus
die macht die war beim volk
sowjets, land, friede und brot
das ist´s - revolution!
3) am 18. jänner warn wir wenig nur
doch das feuer war gelegt
bald warn wir eine dreiviertel million
das land war lahmgelegt
4) wri kämpften tag, wir kämpften nacht
für die räterepublik
kanonen machten uns nicht angst
den arbeitern von wien
5) fabriken warn die unsren schon
die macht in unsrer hand
den führern der sdap
die angst im auge stand
6) sie lullten uns mit phrasen ein
und bremsten wo es geht,
bereiteten mit aller kraft
der bourgeoisie den weg
7) ihr habt uns vieles schon erzählt
und wir ham euch geglaubt
wir hofften dass ihr uns diesmal führt
doch ihr habt uns beraubt
8) merkt euch die lektion genau
sonst lernen wir sie nie
wählt euch eure eignen leut
arbeiterdemokratie!
Who i am right now (2017)
1) Walking across a distant shore
to a long life in oblivion, in oblivion
who i am i dont know
and i dont know who i wanna be
who i wanna be
chorus
i just wanna be
who i am right now
2) In an instant i have found
a piece of mind that i thought lost long ago
I'll start again with what i got
and be kind to myself cos this is all i got
chorus
3) dress me in your words again
I'll put them on as masks and gown
as if they were my own
naked lives i have led
I'll cover up myself with songs
but they are see through lines
chorus
die nahende kaltfront (2016)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFyHZBSNrO8&t=2s
1)erst nehmen sie von euch
dann nehmen sie von uns
so geht das spiel nun mal
sie beherrschen uns
die lüge durchschaun wir erst wenn die lüge uns schlägt
die lüge durchschaun wir erst wenn die lüge uns schlägt
ref:
und du siehst in unsren augen den schmerz
der zu stark ist dass wir ihn spürn
und wir sehen uns immer wieder an
doch wir hören uns nicht
2)und die fänger singen ihr lied und sie wickeln uns ein
als gäben sie uns stimmen
doch unsre stimmen sacken sie ein
es gibt keinen der uns sagt dass wir menschen sind
es gibt keinen der uns sagt dass wir menschen sind
ref
es gibt jene die von uns nehmen und ihnen den weg ebnen
es gibt jene die uns verlassen und am andren ufer stehn
es gibt niemand der mit uns singt und mit uns chöre übt
es gibt niemand der uns formiert und uns zum aufstand führt
wir müssen ketten bilden um ketten zu sprengen
wir müssen uns erinnern um uns zu erkennen
ref
und wir sehn in unsren augen den schmerz
der so stark ist dass er offen liegt
und wir sehen uns ganz fest an
und wir trotzen dem sturm
a sucker for the lonely hearts (2015)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=657pd9ohLK8
1) i am a sucker for the lonely heartsi can tell them from 100 miles afar
and oh i wanna heal them
i watch them as they build their cage
and i hope that they might say my name
and oh they cannot heal me
and no they never healed me
2) i needed to break up with you
to say all the things that i never said
to write all the songs that i didnt wirte
to speak the words that ive been longing to say
how lonely ive been feeling
Bridge
He read me like an open book
and told me all the things that i hid away
he was moving inside me
though he wanst inside me
3) i promised that i would never lie
neither to you nor to myself
but im a master of deception
im a master of self deception
and we both kept the truth from each other
and we both kept the truth from ourselves
Bridge
and i cand stand desire
cos what i really need is love
Freeze the wind (2014)
1
Once my heart belonged to him
He was in everything that i was in
but now i'm in a different life
and i've become somebody's wife
that's until i wasn't and i turned into
a woman that is grounded in her own shoes
2
My baby tries to hold my hand
With all his might so i dont disband
I know this fear so well it has been my friend
I thought that it was love and didnt understand
Its like sometimes we would like to freeze the wind
Put it in a jar and hope that it will sing
Chorus:
And thats just fine
I know that
this is who i am
im a woman in my own right
and a lover in my own time
3
I used to be anxious bout every move he made
And so scared that this moment... it could break
But i found that it was me i was looking for
And the roots to my own life that i had all ignored
Im slowly trying to trace my steps to where i stand
to a woman that i never thought i'd understand
Chorus
4
Someone said that love is letting go
It took me years to realise that this is so
Ive strangled it so many times before
I never had the faith it could breathe on its own
And i found that if i let go i have room to grow
And if i let u love me i might lose control
Chorus
Slowly clicking in (2012)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MeYoGJFihw
1) well ive been looking for myself a thousand times
and i thought i knew by now
who i am and who i was
but these days shook me well
and there u were in the midst of the rain
and u held me oh so tight
and u held my hand as we watched the rain
as the storm calmed down again
chorus:
and i am slowly clicking in
and i found there is something lost and something gained
and im still wondering who, who i am
2) well ur a searcher too
and you searched the world
for things i thought id found
but the more i look the more i find
that im not the one i was
i believed what others thought of me
and i was not true to myself
and now i understand what brought u here
at least i think i do
chorus
and mayb u
r slowly clicking in
and mayb u
find there is something lost and something gained
and ur still wondering who, who u are
3) we might have walked a million miles
but uve always been my friend
im a tree whose leaves have gone
and fallen for the wind
i dont know what will happen next
and know one knows im sure
we might share the road a while
just a moment sweet and pure
chorus
and mayb we are slowly clicking in
and mayb we'll find there is something lost and something gained
we'll b still wondering who, who we are
Sometimes love is not enough (2015)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T575CuoSJ5w
the days are getting shorter as we speak now
you close the curtains and you light the fire as we speak now
i never thought i would fall for you but there goes my heart
in love in love in love
i fell for you
im trying to ignore the facts
and hold on to you
sometimes love is not enough cos we both love ourselves too
my head says we have to move on but my heart says no
it breaks my heart it breaks my heart
it breaks my heart in two
it hurst to tell the truth and let it cut the strings
its easier to close your eyes and let this ship sink
i love you and you know its true cos you feel the same
but we could not be happy if we moved in each others name
Long long time (i lost my mind) (2012)
It has been a long long time
since i last excaped my mind
and its been a long long time
since i last felt so alive
and its like
i lost my mind
and im dancing without reason
with u on my mind
and its like
i lost my mind
oh oh oh
Love song (2012)
1) Hey you in the early morning light
still asleep as the moon leaves with the night
and there's no place that i would rather be
than next to u in these messed up sheets
2) Hey you skipping lightly by my side
dancing slowly as the day looks for the night
and there's no place that i would rather be
than next to u in these messed up streets
3) Hey you on my railroad tracks
i just dont think i'll be ever going back
to the life that i knew before
it's still the same life but it feels different now
4) Hey you with ur life in ur hands
i walk beside u and we roam without end
and like a child in a friendly night
u walk beside me and it feels just right
5) Hey you with the sleep sand in ur eyes
u dwell inside me where my heart beats and sighs
and like a traveller on the shores of my mind
u ride my ocean and u master my tides
6) Hey you with ur mind so near
as if the past unwinds to become clear
and like the dew after a restless night
u rest beside me and it feels just right
Fall Together (2011)
1) we're in the middle of a river
approaching the waterfall
im scared cos theres no going back
but if u hold my hand
we can fall together
A) and im forever in ur guilt
and ur forever in my soul
uve always been there
we're children in a busy street
we're watching rainbows, climbin trees
we're watching each other in awe
B) and i do get scared that u might go away
once i open up
i let u in and show my face
i lay my armour down
C) so there is no hiding anymore
no more dark to block the view
im naked as the day that i was born
im baring my wounds to u
im handing my heart to u
its a risk im strong enough to take
B) and i will be there
and i will b brave
i promise i wont go away
and i will b strong if u want me to
i treat u with respect and care
C) So there is no hiding anymore
no more dark to block the view
we're naked as the day that we were born
ur baring ur wounds to me
ur handing ur heart to me
its a risk im strong enough to take
A) as usual my head fucks up
im so glad ur here to stop
me from breaking the jar
we move together as we speak
my body knows it anyway
knows how to sing this song
1) we're in the middle of a river
approaching the waterfall
im scared cos theres no going back
but if u hold my hand
we can fall together

How can i reach you when you're gone
what is it that we have
where's the connection that i seek
why do we call it love
I want you to feel my pain
I want to feel yours too
let's go down deep
we never do...

And we wonder as nights go by
How long its gonna take
3
The winter leaves its frostbites on our hands
If we attempt to touch or make a mence
The snow it falls and falls and wouldn’t stop
And southern winds make avalanches drop
4
We close the windows well to shield the cold
My baby’s got a rash that just won’t go
We wear our faces straight to keep us sane
And hope the winter finally goes away
5
Just a month to go until its spring
Just another thought to which we cling
Just a month in which we dare not move
Just a month, a month that becomes two
6
We scrape the barell well to find some cash
Just when you think you’re done they push you back
We will finally rise up from our knees
And end the plight and all the misery
And finally say it clear:
No more we’ll take no more
Invisible Songs (Divers' disease) - 2020
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jx6LW7O3jQ
The antidote is always in the poison
we carry it in everything we do
we're drowning in invisible oceans
cos we wake up so fast we cannot breathe
chorus:
and we go and sing invisible songs
joined by ghosts in clinic halls
joined by lovers on window sills
baffled by the speed it kills
cant stop this song
2)
Imaginary elephants between us
we lead them on imaginary strings
police comes round we hide it in a crack
that tears up the reality we see
chorus
3)
Last night i dreamed my daddy died of roses
there were so many songs we hadnt sung
so many questions that i hadnt asked him
i was prepared but couldnt help but cry
Chorus - add:
It haunts the mighty in their sleep
fearing for the peace they keep
cant stop this song
she is me (2008)
this little girl is my butterfly
she lived silently and sad
i ignored her for years
although im crying her tears
although i see what she sees
although im her and she is me
chorus
i cry when she cries
i ache when she aches
i laugh when she laughs
i bleed when she bleeds
i could take her by the hand
i could take her in my arms and watch her grow with love
i could look after her
i could be the one who cares
could protect her when shes scared
i could make sure shes alright
chorus
i think the stars are fine tonight
they guide me when i need a hand and hang my head down low
please encourage her to walk
please encourage her to talk
let her know she can smile
let her know she can try a new life
Do you ever feel the planet move (2019)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0byoLNmjBw
Do you ever feel the planet move
Can you feel the pace, can you feel the truth
we've been so old since the day we were born
we've been so old and we've been so torn
although we have not lived at all
Can you feel the rage that we're all in
Do you know the age you are within
Will we ever stop feeling small
Will we ever feel grown at all
Should we act our age at all
Can you feel your heart expanding
Can you feel the beat extending
Will it stop when it reached full size
Should it ever stop at all
As it's growing still by the day
All that you need is your heart (2018)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vo3yOYoHA2k
1) got my hand in my pocket and head in the air
wherever im headed im already there
the unattainable, wonderful life
its been living under my belt for a while
what you thought was a dream that will never come true
you've been living it already unknown to you
Chorus
wherever you wanna go
whoever you wanna be
whoever you think that you need
all that you need is your heart
2) the most important love of your life
is yourself and not some imaginary wife
the imperfection and mess you have made
is the perfect way to spend your days
there comes a moment of beauty and truth
when you see all the beauty and loving in you
chorus
got my hand in my pocket and head in the air
wherever im headed im already there
the imperfection and mess you have made
is the perfect way to spend your days
there comes a moment of beauty and truth
when you see all the beauty and loving in you
chorus
Cowboy love (2018)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dx_VsaRvCTk
They were two cowboys in love
a story never heard of
one stood always on the side
while the other took a ride
like two ohio lovers
one dreamed of the other
they were never meant to be
they were never meant to bleed
chorus
who will draw first
who will move first
who will shoot first
if i move will you shoot in the dirt
two hours they were stood there
a standoff was in the air
they will live in stories
and songs will sing their glory
a dry moon shines at midnight
time took time off for this fight
high noon wasnt good enough
this was not their kind of love
chorus
ooh ooh ooh (2006)
Now you’re distinctly out of sight
another distant light in life
with all the battles that we fought
isolated empty cold
with all the things i could expect
the least likely was regret
with all the things that i could do
i never thought id fall for you
Ooh ooh ooh
My sight is blinded by my thought
Jealousy and raging wars
with all the battles that we fought
isolated empty cold
just as easy it could be
this violated empty me
might as well just take a stand
make this bloody war and end
Ooh ooh ooh
And i’m still waiting for the day
that will make us find a way
Find a way to understand
i might as well just take your hand
me and you against the wall
isolated empty small
the most wonderful of all
we were not smart enough to fall
House on fire (drowning sea) (2018)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kch2MiehVGM
we get on like a house on fire
and it burns us to the ground
can't resist to the flame
will it burn me to the ground
enter me slowly through the door to my mind
enter this ocean swim through me
u are a drug that carries me
u are a drug my dear
the fish are drowning
so is the sea (coda)
since we came to talk until this day
i dont know who we are
i have found a simple logic
to this life
it never stops to breathe
Pure and broken like us (2018)
www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrOfsjG4xHw
I like the colour of his eyes
he doesnt know the beauty in them
as night falls asleep with him
i cant help but look at him
i like the colour of his heart
he doesnt think he's worthy of love
as night falls asleep with us
i cant help but look at him
i wanna sing songs that are pure and broken like us
i like the colour of his shadow
he equals mine and their holding hands
i like the shadow of his story
they're whispering secrets to each other
i wanna sing songs that are pure and broken like us
Songs to sing (2018)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDigVjOCMCU
there's an ocean of sadness inside me
and it will never go away
its always been there
it is my own and i cherish it
it cant dry it up and i dont want it to
it's a resource of strength
it's being a woman
i know that you hurt too, babe
i know men feel it too
we both felt it for a moment
when we fell into each others eyes
we connected our oceans
and swam back and forth
we poured ourselves into each other
i never understood that hurricane that blew us
and removed the roof of my house
so here i still am and the rain is getting in
with everyone to look in
in the morning when i wake
i open my eyes
and im glad that im alive, im so glad that im alive
there will always be music, music to dance to
rivers to look at
and songs to sing
We will fight back (2017)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyHKlwtBH2E&t=1s
don't take away our right to choose
we know that you want us to lose
don't drive us back into the home
we're here to stay, we're not alone
chorus
and if you do
we will fight back
we are many
you are few
don't take away our union rights
don't squeeze our wages
we are prepared to fight
don't take away our social state
don't spread your lies
don't spread your hate
chorus
your house is built on slippy sand
your lies will crumble in the end
they only liked you cos you're new
when you're in power you show your true colours
chorus II
and when you do
we will fight back
we are many
you are few
Arbeiterlied 1918 (2008)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCZ-y8Fsty4&t=3s
1) der krieg nahm unsre brüder fort
und brot hatten wir keins
drum legten wir die arbeit still
kommt leute reiht euch ein
2) in russland war der krieg schon aus
die macht die war beim volk
sowjets, land, friede und brot
das ist´s - revolution!
3) am 18. jänner warn wir wenig nur
doch das feuer war gelegt
bald warn wir eine dreiviertel million
das land war lahmgelegt
4) wri kämpften tag, wir kämpften nacht
für die räterepublik
kanonen machten uns nicht angst
den arbeitern von wien
5) fabriken warn die unsren schon
die macht in unsrer hand
den führern der sdap
die angst im auge stand
6) sie lullten uns mit phrasen ein
und bremsten wo es geht,
bereiteten mit aller kraft
der bourgeoisie den weg
7) ihr habt uns vieles schon erzählt
und wir ham euch geglaubt
wir hofften dass ihr uns diesmal führt
doch ihr habt uns beraubt
8) merkt euch die lektion genau
sonst lernen wir sie nie
wählt euch eure eignen leut
arbeiterdemokratie!
Who i am right now (2017)
1) Walking across a distant shore
to a long life in oblivion, in oblivion
who i am i dont know
and i dont know who i wanna be
who i wanna be
chorus
i just wanna be
who i am right now
2) In an instant i have found
a piece of mind that i thought lost long ago
I'll start again with what i got
and be kind to myself cos this is all i got
chorus
3) dress me in your words again
I'll put them on as masks and gown
as if they were my own
naked lives i have led
I'll cover up myself with songs
but they are see through lines
chorus
die nahende kaltfront (2016)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFyHZBSNrO8&t=2s
1)erst nehmen sie von euch
dann nehmen sie von uns
so geht das spiel nun mal
sie beherrschen uns
die lüge durchschaun wir erst wenn die lüge uns schlägt
die lüge durchschaun wir erst wenn die lüge uns schlägt
ref:
und du siehst in unsren augen den schmerz
der zu stark ist dass wir ihn spürn
und wir sehen uns immer wieder an
doch wir hören uns nicht
2)und die fänger singen ihr lied und sie wickeln uns ein
als gäben sie uns stimmen
doch unsre stimmen sacken sie ein
es gibt keinen der uns sagt dass wir menschen sind
es gibt keinen der uns sagt dass wir menschen sind
ref
es gibt jene die von uns nehmen und ihnen den weg ebnen
es gibt jene die uns verlassen und am andren ufer stehn
es gibt niemand der mit uns singt und mit uns chöre übt
es gibt niemand der uns formiert und uns zum aufstand führt
wir müssen ketten bilden um ketten zu sprengen
wir müssen uns erinnern um uns zu erkennen
ref
und wir sehn in unsren augen den schmerz
der so stark ist dass er offen liegt
und wir sehen uns ganz fest an
und wir trotzen dem sturm
a sucker for the lonely hearts (2015)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=657pd9ohLK8
1) i am a sucker for the lonely heartsi can tell them from 100 miles afar
and oh i wanna heal them
i watch them as they build their cage
and i hope that they might say my name
and oh they cannot heal me
and no they never healed me
2) i needed to break up with you
to say all the things that i never said
to write all the songs that i didnt wirte
to speak the words that ive been longing to say
how lonely ive been feeling
Bridge
He read me like an open book
and told me all the things that i hid away
he was moving inside me
though he wanst inside me
3) i promised that i would never lie
neither to you nor to myself
but im a master of deception
im a master of self deception
and we both kept the truth from each other
and we both kept the truth from ourselves
Bridge
and i cand stand desire
cos what i really need is love
Freeze the wind (2014)
1
Once my heart belonged to him
He was in everything that i was in
but now i'm in a different life
and i've become somebody's wife
that's until i wasn't and i turned into
a woman that is grounded in her own shoes
2
My baby tries to hold my hand
With all his might so i dont disband
I know this fear so well it has been my friend
I thought that it was love and didnt understand
Its like sometimes we would like to freeze the wind
Put it in a jar and hope that it will sing
Chorus:
And thats just fine
I know that
this is who i am
im a woman in my own right
and a lover in my own time
3
I used to be anxious bout every move he made
And so scared that this moment... it could break
But i found that it was me i was looking for
And the roots to my own life that i had all ignored
Im slowly trying to trace my steps to where i stand
to a woman that i never thought i'd understand
Chorus
4
Someone said that love is letting go
It took me years to realise that this is so
Ive strangled it so many times before
I never had the faith it could breathe on its own
And i found that if i let go i have room to grow
And if i let u love me i might lose control
Chorus
Slowly clicking in (2012)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MeYoGJFihw
1) well ive been looking for myself a thousand times
and i thought i knew by now
who i am and who i was
but these days shook me well
and there u were in the midst of the rain
and u held me oh so tight
and u held my hand as we watched the rain
as the storm calmed down again
chorus:
and i am slowly clicking in
and i found there is something lost and something gained
and im still wondering who, who i am
2) well ur a searcher too
and you searched the world
for things i thought id found
but the more i look the more i find
that im not the one i was
i believed what others thought of me
and i was not true to myself
and now i understand what brought u here
at least i think i do
chorus
and mayb u
r slowly clicking in
and mayb u
find there is something lost and something gained
and ur still wondering who, who u are
3) we might have walked a million miles
but uve always been my friend
im a tree whose leaves have gone
and fallen for the wind
i dont know what will happen next
and know one knows im sure
we might share the road a while
just a moment sweet and pure
chorus
and mayb we are slowly clicking in
and mayb we'll find there is something lost and something gained
we'll b still wondering who, who we are
Sometimes love is not enough (2015)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T575CuoSJ5w
the days are getting shorter as we speak now
you close the curtains and you light the fire as we speak now
i never thought i would fall for you but there goes my heart
in love in love in love
i fell for you
im trying to ignore the facts
and hold on to you
sometimes love is not enough cos we both love ourselves too
my head says we have to move on but my heart says no
it breaks my heart it breaks my heart
it breaks my heart in two
it hurst to tell the truth and let it cut the strings
its easier to close your eyes and let this ship sink
i love you and you know its true cos you feel the same
but we could not be happy if we moved in each others name
Long long time (i lost my mind) (2012)
It has been a long long time
since i last excaped my mind
and its been a long long time
since i last felt so alive
and its like
i lost my mind
and im dancing without reason
with u on my mind
and its like
i lost my mind
oh oh oh
Love song (2012)
1) Hey you in the early morning light
still asleep as the moon leaves with the night
and there's no place that i would rather be
than next to u in these messed up sheets
2) Hey you skipping lightly by my side
dancing slowly as the day looks for the night
and there's no place that i would rather be
than next to u in these messed up streets
3) Hey you on my railroad tracks
i just dont think i'll be ever going back
to the life that i knew before
it's still the same life but it feels different now
4) Hey you with ur life in ur hands
i walk beside u and we roam without end
and like a child in a friendly night
u walk beside me and it feels just right
5) Hey you with the sleep sand in ur eyes
u dwell inside me where my heart beats and sighs
and like a traveller on the shores of my mind
u ride my ocean and u master my tides
6) Hey you with ur mind so near
as if the past unwinds to become clear
and like the dew after a restless night
u rest beside me and it feels just right
Fall Together (2011)
1) we're in the middle of a river
approaching the waterfall
im scared cos theres no going back
but if u hold my hand
we can fall together
A) and im forever in ur guilt
and ur forever in my soul
uve always been there
we're children in a busy street
we're watching rainbows, climbin trees
we're watching each other in awe
B) and i do get scared that u might go away
once i open up
i let u in and show my face
i lay my armour down
C) so there is no hiding anymore
no more dark to block the view
im naked as the day that i was born
im baring my wounds to u
im handing my heart to u
its a risk im strong enough to take
B) and i will be there
and i will b brave
i promise i wont go away
and i will b strong if u want me to
i treat u with respect and care
C) So there is no hiding anymore
no more dark to block the view
we're naked as the day that we were born
ur baring ur wounds to me
ur handing ur heart to me
its a risk im strong enough to take
A) as usual my head fucks up
im so glad ur here to stop
me from breaking the jar
we move together as we speak
my body knows it anyway
knows how to sing this song
1) we're in the middle of a river
approaching the waterfall
im scared cos theres no going back
but if u hold my hand
we can fall together
