The Earth Is My Witness
Mother earth look at her closely
she looks at her baby and she sighs
the slight breathing pause that she takes it builds her and
makes her strong
She refuses to give her up
and we close our eyes
Her hands touch the round stomach
and feel the kick
The eyes that have seen so much cry
with the water she starts to rinse her face
And refuses to give her up
And we close our eyes
And you close your eyes

In Motion # 2
I see him turn away
Although my eyes are shut with emptiness
And again the rain falls down
Together with me
This blood in my body runs for you
Drink my tears as I cry
My heart and my mind crave for you
Drink my tears as I cry
It is sad how the rain falls down
I see you walk away
Falling down I cry and sream your name
And again the rain falls down
Together with me
My ache is yours as I am
Drink my tears as I cry

Locked Away
No sense at all
do what you want
for I will hunt you
Untill you will be
Locked away
just so what you'll
be scred of me
Behind my power
I will hide all my fears
Right now you are punished
for absolutely nothing
And I feel so good
Because once more
I don't have to be honest
With myself
While you're locked away

The May Song
I'm waiting for your hands
to fold around my wrist
I'm mellowing in warm grass
and the scent of you I've missed
And blue is representing
the draft in my heart
I'm wandering through thin skies
and the transparent air I've missed
Pale is my face
you might want to colour
while I breathe
I'm following large drops of rain
with my eyes on the sight of you I've missed
Pale is my face
you might want to colour
while I breathe

Bad Movie Scene
Why did I ever think
life is about to go on
in a minute
And did I ever see
life is about to go on
in a minute
Life never goes on
Those are empty words
This is the back door
that will lead you out
to find the alley of your dreams
They try and tell you
They're just empty words
It's just a frame of mind
This is the back door
Leading me out

Kevin's Telescope
His hands hide inside a sleeve
and little feet play with the ground beneath him
while up in the sky is where he wants to be
Time will fly
and the wind plays with him
the night will give him its charm
While he walks home
his head's up in a cloud
he feels his pores fill up with fresh air
and there is no doubt
that one day he will be
where the eye of his telescope has already been
Night will pass
but he's a lot faster
no one can do him any harm

Great Ocean Road
It is all there
The earth and the ocean
They contain the power
of our lives
This beautiful city
that surrenders
to the nightfall
Carving the grounds
we walk upon
And the air
We all dare
to ride it somehow
Blue and black is the sky
While tumbling down
Trapped into the freedom
of an aeroplane

Travel
Melodic stanzas
are symphonizing their way
through your weary head
To feed your distrust
And fill it's mouth with the desire
to soulfully be one with your creation
Not a subject to control
you call upon a higer power
for help and inspiration
The crowd waits
and turns their faces
towards you expectantly
you give them what they need
But their useless criticism
makes you die
a bit more inside

Marooned
I know from a lesser tribe
I suppose the range of my intelligence
is way too wide
And you don't see me
'cause I don't have much to say
My emotional outlet
is consuming the better part of me
And apart from the wrong words
a tortured cry is making me see
That you don't see me
'cause I don't have much to say
hours and hours fo jealousy
are passing me by
Although hollow silence
is the only wave
going through your brain

On Most Surfaces
The frost hits me in the eye
and wakes me
these are blury winters
and I cannot see
I walk into the white light of the snow
when the sun comes
I break it with my shadow
which tales me where I go
The frost hits me in the eye
and wakes me
I am the snow falling down on you
I tear up your face with my frost
And make you run to somewhere warm
When I come I see you get away
I burst out about your emptyness
The frost hits me in the eye
