1. The Moon And The Scars
don´t follow me now
the realms of the past make the future look small
divided we stand together we fall
one question left so I travel back
don´t follow me now
don´t follow me now
always the same the moon and the scars
forever remain the moon and the scars
again and again the moon and the scars
my flight started in the palm of your hand
a holiday, a summer, a lifetime to spend
out of the black into the night
I just never tried
places once known are hidden to me now
make yourself seen, nightmares know how
hidden like your grave I never seem to find
don´t follow me now
asleep but never dead
always the same the moon and the scars
forever remain the moon and the scars
again and again the moon and my scars
and do not follow me now
and I will never change
and I just never tried
and I go back in time (again)
- excerpt from "May Fragments Not Dissolve" -
don´t follow me now
I just never tried
don´t follow me now
2. youngBlood
you´re close to me, close as the end
I love the past, I must not forget it
I do remember "Dialogue", "Sunrise"
and searching for Liebenfels
bloodyoungblood
you´re far from me, (why are you) so far from me
I call up the past and I regret it
outside I stand looking in
and revel in the chill of nihil
bloodyoungblood
not dead in beds of white
not dead a body wired
not dead
he is not dead
he is not dead in beds of white
he is not dead a body wired
he did not die he did not die
he did not die
may the past arise
and change the future
bloodyoungblood
3. Time
and now our time comes
and now our time comes
there will come a time
we said
but time only goes
the fading of the rainbow
the closing of a rose
we´ll make the time
we vowed
but times already made
impatient as the twilight
elusive as the shade
and now our time comes
and now our time comes
we´ll take the time
we both agreed
but time is only lived
the clock unwinds
and autumn leaves
run riot in the wind
and time just slips away
they say
like golden grains of sand
and the days and nights
we held so tight
escape from out our hands
and now our time comes
and now our time comes
and now our time comes
and now our time comes
and now it has gone
and now it has gone
4. The Lonely Have No Right To Share The Summer Sun
gone gone with the summer
gone gone like the summer
our king so beautiful in deep sleep
precious, immaculate dreams encoded in our blood
pure and deep like our love for him
like an angel like an angel with crippled wings
gone gone with the summer
gone gone like the summer
oh my wintertime arriving with the loss of memory
oh my wintertime a streak of black against the grey
oh my wintertime and a longing for the sea
Emily Valentine together we mourn yesterday
you have gone
like the summer
gone away
like the sun
oh younger eyes you have tears sweet as death
at the sight of blood I faint at the sight of my blood
I pass out
you may never know that I could love you, too
you will never know that I sacrifice for you
wake on another shore
wake and summer comes no more
5. The Lesser Travelled Seas
I am the flame I am the dream
I am deep within
I drink beauty with my eyes
yet nothing but dreams in my fist
I am the path I take lead
I never forget I never forgive
I carry the torch and leave you behind
yet nothing but dreams in my fist
wait wait wait
the sad sound of trains
wait wait wait
a fist filled with illusions
wait wait wait
don´t smash the silence
wait wait wait
all or nothing at all
the chance of a lifetime
in a lifetime of chance
the wild things in my head
come as close as the end (2x)
beautiful one are you dead or just drunk
while you still sleep I fly through the night
beautiful one are you dying or dead
waiting forever was the life that I´ve lead
wait wait wait
beautiful one are you dead or just drunk
while you still sleep I fly through the night
sinister one are you dying or already dead
waiting forever was the life that I´ve lead
wait wait wait
I never forget I never forgive
all or nothing at all
I am the flame I am the dream
I am deep within
all or nothing at all (2x)
6. Tesco Girl
oh my Tesco girl
pretty foreign you are to me
would you like to know yet more
about our fate or the ONT
how is your life ?
(is it) run away with me tonight
the crops may fail but you´d always be true
(I know) a beautiful Tesco girl
are you happy now ?
with all the things that I never gave to you
is it all just a come and go ?
and a lost Tesco girl
farewell (my) Tesco girl
for I will never see you again
another dream brings another face
and I will never know you
7. I Came To Leave
a grail for the quest and the spirit of Europe
a love unrequited and a dream to cling to
a flower yet brutal to perfume the filth
so I can breathe again
a grail for the quest and the spirit of Europe
a love unrequited and a dream to cling to
a rain, cloud white, to wash my eye
so I can cry again
a grail for the quest and the spirit of Europe
a love unrequited and a dream to cling to
a rain, cloud white, to purify the sky
so I can see again
- you will still sleep many hours
(here on the beach)
and one clear morning you will find
your boat tied to another shore -
a grail for the loss and the spirit of Nothing
a love untrue and a dream for waking
a flower so brutal to perfume all this human filth
so I can live again
- do not be afraid
you will never see the last drop fall -
8. Lead Me
strange things there hanging in the sky
Slovenia in the rain
in search for luck I feel my voice
not different, not the same
someone remember me and what only I did see
Lead Me
old things in alcoholic logic
Garma I hope one day
in search for luck I ruin my choice
I consider to stay
someone remember me and what only I did see
Lead Me
old things in alcoholic logic
Abraxas I call thy name
in search for luck I ruin my choice
I consider to stay
Lead Me
Lead Me you´ve changed me
Lead Me
Lead Me you´ve changed me
strange things there hanging in the sky
Utopia in the rain
in search for luck I feel my voice
not different, not the same
9. First Song
wait, here we stand
starry-eyed at the crossroads
I do not pretend
here we stand once again
I´m just passing by - come crashing into your life
uncertainty
not enough time
let´s hesitate forever
as I stumble I await my fall
I´m just passing by - here crawling into your life
let loose your dolphins to tear me apart
let loose your cats to feast on my heart
let loose your friends to defile my name
let loose a love to engulf me with pain
I´m just passing by and here is your first song
and the light in your eyes, glimmer or pity
let loose your dolphins to tear me apart
let loose your cats to feast on my heart
let loose your friends to defile my name
let loose a love to engulf me with pain
I´m just passing by, sharing your fear of getting old
and now I remember that your hair was golden
10. Arrival
men as trees, walking
outside angels fall for us
outside giants rule again
outside we´ll become like them
outside oh what a fine day
I have my own symbols to dress
I have plenty of hate for this mess
outside
outside
everything will be alright
next time everything wil be alright
wake up my love, wake up
here come the good times
outside Watchers come to us
outside The Elder Ones appear
inside a Black Sun shining
outside they have arrived
I have my own symbols to dress
I have plenty of hate for this mess
outside
outside oh what a war day
everything will be alright
next time everything will be alright
goodnight my love, goodnight
here come the good times

11. Heaven Street (Death In June Cover)
Take a walk down Heaven Street
The soil is soft and the air smells sweet
Paul is waiting there
And so is Franz
Now only memories run on railway tracks.
This road leads to Heaven.
Waiting feet frozen to the ground
The earth exploding with the gas of bodies
Rifle butts
To crush you down
Now only flowers
To idolize.
This road leads to Heaven
12. The Nothing Out Of Me
five years doing time
ten years nothing changes
driven apart and blown away
ohne Dich wird es Nacht
nostalgia all in vain
in ancient places I dream future
for you for me
ohne Dich wird es Nacht
though a body found the mind stays alone
see myself lost in the City Of Never
waiting for someone to come out
what do you do so far away
you are there in another life
and your December dreams, your thoughts are mine
I´ll catch the sun and never give it back again
a part of this is a bit of you
and when you wake up in the morning
I´ll be the one who smiles for you
I fade for the Flower like an unfulfilled dream
may you always remain to shine like I have seen
I fade like a flower, like someone on a cross
lit up, brought down, but love does cost
are you asleep, sweet flower of my blood
13. A Dream Within A Dream
if it´s good to live then it´s better to be asleep dreaming
has it all gone or will I fall awake
will I never return to be the same again
droplets of memory are all that remain
strange faces promising new life
does the reward justify the loss
all beauty burned
burned like bridges I once crossed
7 years ago often more
has it all gone or will I fall awake
will I never return to be young again
since it does not matter when
why could I not die then
if it´s good to live then it´s better to be asleep dreaming
if it´s good to live then it´s better to be asleep dreaming
I came to leave I start to bleed
a dream within a dream
another wave breaks on a foreign shore
a dream within a dream
all the pain that comes down on me
a dream within a dream
the second side of My Boy
a dream within a dream
nothing nothing nothing nothing
a dream within a dream
a hideaway unseen
a dream within a dream
why could I not die then
why could I not die then
14. Add Endum
(Spoken)
"Can the living reach the dead?"
"Yes," I said, as I lay dying.
"And if they can't," I heard the unknown say, "it's not from any lack of trying."
