Hell
Hell
Go to sleep - go to hell,
let the demons feed upon my empty shell.
My thoughts becoming darker and darker,
I can feel the maelstrom sucking harder and harder.
My mind becomes a prison
without a lock
so no one can set me free.
I am as tired and exhausted
(from trying to break out)
as one, as I can be.
(Hell)
...wander in the horror of my dreams,
just to wake up in between, my sweaty sheets.
Screaming loud - struggling for breath,
rapid heartbeat, feeling close to death.
Reaching for the switch beside my bed,
let the light chase away the evil from my head.
Every night is exactly the same,
don't want to sleep, but can't stay awake.

Sold Out

Glance at me, for a while,
close the gap (between us), with a smile.
Show some skin, yearn for my touch,
bewilder me, awaken my lust.
You sell your body, you sell your pride
and spread your legs, so you don't have
to stay alone at night.
In the end you'll be all alone,
lying awake next to
someone you don't know.
All alone!
Sold out!
You sell your body, you sell your pride
and share your skin, but this
won't fill the emptiness inside.
In the end you'll be all alone,
just a check on my list,
just a silhouette in my memory's mist.
Glanced at me, for a while,
closed the gap (between us), with a smile.
Showed some skin, got my touch,
sold yourself, sated my lust.
Why didn't you ask me,
to hold you close,
within my arms,
to scare away your loneliness.
Why didn't you ask me,
to keep you warm,
I would have done so,
it would have been enough for me.

Division by almost zero

I tell you something about infinity,
because loneliness seems infinite to me.
I've got a hole in my chest,
where the heart uses to rest.
And all the love that is given to me,
can't fill it up 'cause it's endlessly deep.
Sometimes I think a can't stand this ache,
but I'm build to bend, not build to break.
So I wander alone in the dark,
with a hole in my chest instead of a heart.
No one ever - nothing forever.
No one will ever understand,
no one will ever feel the same,
nothing can fill my void - ever,
I'll be alone - forever.

The color of snow
You love in categories,
think in stereotypes,
feel in rare exceptions,
wander deaf through your life.
Give almost nothing,
take as much as you can,
feed on hope and forgiveness,
Care a shit at the end.
You're all just tourists,
in our country of life,
leaving nothing but garbage,
in the landscapes of our minds.
Sow the seed of destruction,
on the fields of our hearts,
burn the woods of our souls,
with fire set by disregard.
No one remains, nothing persists,
we will all wander as ghosts in the mist,
on the shatters of our hearts,
through the relicts of our woods,
with our heads down in shame,
and our hands - red from your blood.

Together alone

Together alone
So mit dir, so allein, so sehr nah,
und doch das Gefühl allein zu sein.
Wir sind zusammen, doch fühl ich mich gänzlich allein,
ich spür dich an mir, hör dein Herz,
doch wärme spür ich keine.
Ich fühl mich schwach, ich fühl mich schwer.
Du bist da? Doch warum fehlst du mir dann so sehr.
Ich fühl mich klein, ich fühl mich leer.
Du bist da? Doch warum fehlst du mir dann so sehr.
Du liegst bei mir, doch bist du unendlich fern.
So kalt so hart so still, warum hab ich dich immer noch gern?
So lieb, so warm, so da. Ich frage mich, wird es jemals wieder
so wie es war.
Bei - dir!
Bei - mir!
Bei - uns!
Allein!
