1. Castaway
Castaway
... whatever will be tomorrow
And I wander slowly
and I fall in my own arms
and I want to say I'm nothing
we're dying - pay for faults
And I wanted to loose my anger
as I thought what we will be
Reality - no happiness
Onward from 1993...
All in all I was alone this time
All in all nothing seems to satisfy
Nothing's more to learn
Nothing's more to say
All is said and done
I disbelieve the things you wanna say
Nothing more in me to hear you, betrayer
a last few words I have in me
They will erase you
They will erase us from this time
I wanna disbelieve in your tomorrow
Misanthropy is the key to me
Grief is my master - the night is my pleasure
Dark forests are an inspiration to me
Can you feel the sorrow which emphasizes the night?
Can you see the darkness in the candlelight?
Can you feel the coldness, the foggy breath of night?
Can you smell the blackness in the woods outside?
I was wandering through the winter in my woods
And I've seen the glory days on my way
Days you lost
2. With Nothing All Begins
With Nothing All Begins
Throwing myself into loneliness these days
Forced by everyone but nothing seems to be like once...
I have no direction in this game
I don't have to grow no longer
Nevermore
Nothing's where I had begun once
No more stories to hear
I don't have to grow no longer
I don't need noone
Nevermore
Evermore
With nothing all begins
And all the dreams that vanish make me stronger in myself
I don't have to fear the future
Don't have to fear the lies 'cause I already have seen what's going on
afterwards...
Can you tell me what it means to you when you hear me saying that I love you since years?
I'm aware of the answer now, I went through it all
Through the emptiness of my life
Through the nothingness
I always promised you more
I always promised me more
More to have and more to see
And everything's impatient - the same with me
I don't have it in my hands
With nothing all begins
Summer's gone too soon
Pleasures much too short
Put out the light
I won't begin again
3. What Counts And What Remains
What Counts And What Remains
When I started this I was unsure whether to stop or to go on
After all I fall as usual - a certain mood you gave me for a while
Everything I touch turns to blood - everytime I want things to develop
But still I am someone
What counts and what remains is a small but futile ground to harvest, maybe one day
Everything I gave you was supposed to die
Things are never clear these days
Walk the ways again, see life goes on
Because what counts and what remains for me is a love you never experienced
What counts and what remains for me is a love you never experienced
Ignorance is bliss
We are pretty when we lie
Because everything I gave you was supposed to die,
everything I gave you was supposed to die
Things are never clear these days, walk the ways again, see life goes on
What counts and what remains for me is a small but futile ground to harvest, maybe one day...
What counts and what remains is a small but futile ground to harvest, maybe one day
Come home where you grew up
Walk the ways again
See life goes on
What counts and what remains is a small but futile ground
What counts and what remains is a small but futile ground to harvest, maybe one day
maybe one day...
Everything I liked to keep
Nothing more and silence weeps
of everything, everything I came from once
And I believe in stars alight
Future somehow - I don't mind of everything,
everything that will come maybe
Thank you just for being here tonight
Thank you just for staying in my mind
Everything I like to keep
Everyone is wise
but me
Life is getting closer now
Somehow I don't mind
Somehow everything of this I like to keep
and I believe
And I believe in stars alight
Future somehow - I don't mind of everything
Everything that may come someday
What counts and what remains...
4. Walk The Ways Again
Walk The Ways Again
[instrumental]
5. Late Summer
Late Summer
Turn away from me, from the life you decided to throw away these days
Don't tell me it will all be again one day
Nothing means nothing
Everything means everything
Say "the clouds come", I am ready
I call winds for my revenge
My revenge
Nothing's more to say
Now it's time to pay
I will call the winds for my revenge
Moon and sun
Suitable for every one
I use them for me, for my belief
Say "nature spreads her mighty wings"
Say "the clouds are on my side"
Say "the storms still guide my way"
And say "the woods still house my mind"
I'm not afraid, I have the time to fake
all that I said, what I have done
Nothing's as it seems
and vice versa
Say "the woods still house my mind"
Maybe these words will never die
I still have something on my mind
and I do not forget things very soon
Say "nature spreads her mighty wings"
Say "the clouds are on my side"
Say "the storms will guide my way"
Say "the woods will house my mind"
Maybe then I will be free again
Late summer
6. A Vision Of You And Me
A Vision Of You And Me
This is about something that will never be
And never ever was
A special kind of something which we'll never experience
Nothing gives us the past
Neither hope nor future but present
Here and there hopeful, familiar faces
Something is in me
A vision of you and me
I remember us when we were young
I remember there's no return
But this has nothing to say because you'll remain in my memory
Dreams - now I catch the sun
Reality it has become my dream and the other way round
This is a part of our new hope for a life which is maybe new for us
To grow means to realize that time is running
I remember us when we were young
But this has nothing to say because you will stay in my memory
A vision of you and me
7. Poetry Of Illusions
Poetry Of Illusions
I awake, and now I'm in my dream again
A world so close like it once used to be
I feel the first steps of my youth
Years ago this very day
Never wanted you to leave
Nothing seemed to be like you and me
And noone's frightening, noone's lying
Noone's here to yearn but you and me
Never wanted you to be like me
Never wanted you to see
what's worth in life to life for maybe
Something is between your world and me
And now you vanish in eternity again
Going apart in a moment of pain
You have disappeared that very day
A time for you and me and I was young
Anger, darkness, grief - eternal suffering
Anger, darkness, grief - for you just laughter
Poetry of illusions
That we might meet someday again
Someday in my dreams
A tale of the sun and the moon
Falling asleep in a drunken world
Falling asleep to meet the unborn ocean
Poetry of illusions
A tale of the sun and the moon
Poetry of illusions
A tale of the sun and the moon
I'm playing with your memories now
You oughta stay untrue to yourself
I never wanted you to leave
Never ever wanted you to leave
In the end there's a way leading to an ocean
A world so close like it once used to be here
And I can feel the first steps of my youth
I can feel the first steps of my youth
8. Where Rivers Flow Into The Sea
Where Rivers Flow Into The Sea
In times when I don't know why
whether to dream or to die tonight
Still I have one reason to stay
You are a river to me
I have seen the skies tonight
Also I have seen a sun - alive
Once I gave my world away
Now I have one reason to stay...
Yesterday has passed away
Memories linger on in me
I will see it all again in spring
Nothing more passes away
Where rivers flow into the sea
Follow all the rivers to the sea
All will be another dream of you and me
In times when I don't know why
You are a river to me
I just need someone in my memory
I have no need for you physically...
Sorry for the time I wasn't here
You are a river to me
