For you

Strophe 1:
You try to hurt me, but you can´t.
Du schlägst gegen eine Mauer aus Stahl.
Versuch doch nur hindurch zu kommen,
no chance at all
for you.

Strophe 2:
Pack nur Deinen Meißel aus, all your tools,
gib Dein Bestes, Du kommst nicht durch.
Your arrows flying in the sky,
no chance at all
for you.

Strophe 3:
Verachtung trifft mich, and I laugh,
you haven´t checked the situation,
und Armut kriecht über Dein Haupt,
no chance al all
for you.

Strophe 4:
Forget the past, the future´s dead,
vergessen sei das Schauspiel nun endgültig.
Totgesagte leben schon lange nicht mehr,
no chance at all
for you.

Strophe 5:
Your words are empty, my feelings too,
wie Fliegensummen in meinen Ohren,
selbst Deine Feigheit trifft mich nicht.
No chance at all
for you.

Strophe 6:
Why should I hate you now at last?
Nur eines schlägt mir ins Gesicht:
Du tötetest die Poesie
that I brought
to you.

Dreamer

Strophe 1:
This day is like every other day
and that means grey.
This evening I will sit at home,
all alone,
watching TV without thinking.
I started drinking.
The first time this day I feel glad
when I go to bed.

Refrain 1:
I will see you in my dreams.
I am waiting for my dreams.
I will love you in my dreams.
I am living for my dreams.

Strophe 2:
I don’t know your name or who you are
my perfect star,
but in my dreams you are always there
everywhere.
I forgot the rest of the day,
we fly away.
This world is perfect and I don’t feel
that it’s unreal.

[Refrain 1]

Strophe 3:
The whole night I stay with you,
for me it’s true.
We ran over beaches, hand in hand
in a foreign land.
I can feel you, touch you everywhere
your skin, your hair.
But then in my world begins the day
and I can’t stay.

[Bridge + Refrain 1 langgezogen]

Strophe 4:
Water turns to blood, rain to tears – joy to fear.
Somebody I have never seen – kills you and me.
I feel our pain, hear you cry – and then I die.
And always when I’m dreaming this man, kills me again…

Refrain 2:
I am crying in my dreams.
I am dying in my dreams.
I miss you in my dreams.
I’m afraid now of my dreams.

Victim

Ref. :
Babe, your words are killing me,
don’t cover me with hurt.
I’m not your enemy,
love can be so absurd

Strophe 1:
You’re the one that gives me so much
I can’t believe, that you are true.
When I recieve a smile from your face
for me, the whole world’s born anew.
I try to give you what you want to,
but what I try, it isn’t right.
For all my faults, I have to pay for
and punishment follows on side.

Strophe 2:
I’m so glad, that I once met you,
life was grey, before you came.
And I hope that you are glad too,
but I’m not sure, you feel the same.
You don’t know how good It feels,
that I am allowed to love you
noone else will ever see
the shiny halo there above you.

Strophe 3:
What I need, I know the best,
they all don’t know, what’s good for me.
Feelings can’t be put in words,
but I’m not blind, I still can see.
Although sometimes it is not easy
walking through the brushwood of you moods,
but when you put your arms around me
everything seems to be good.

Ende:
I trust you
I believe everything you say
You promise me love
I will promise you everything
I don’t know how to thank you
for all that you have given to me
So insn’t it natural, that I make some
Sacrifies on our altar of love
The love that will last forever
I hope it will……………will it?

Them

Refrain:
And lays like a pestilence
over them,
and they wonder
why it smells!

Strophe 1:
And the decay
crawls out off them.
From their eyes,
when they stare at you.
From their ears,
when they listen to you.

Strophe 2:
And they scream: “Where’s this god?“
From their mouth, And they don’t feel him.
when they babble at you. He’s already in them,
In the inside of their purse
and they search for new gods,

Strophe 3:
And they’re amused with nothing, ´cause nobody told them:
but they think, they’ve got everything. ignorence, decadence
And they don’t understand very much, and, at last, stupidity!
´cause there’s not much to understand.
And they don’t think very much,
´cause there’s not much to think about.

Strophe 4:
Dancing with their friends,
They call it culture, going wilder and faster
they are pretty amused. and one of them falls down,
the others dance him to mash
his arms, his legs, his head,

Strophe 5:
They smile while they’re listening, and finally his guts and his brain,
but nothing remains in their heads. Pretty amused now,
They smile while they’re watching, ´cause there’s more place!
but they close their eyes.
And they smile when you speak,
but they only mumble.
And aou are condemned
to live among them!

Stern

Refrain 1:
Ich blicke auf die Welt hinab
von meinem kleinen, leeren Stern.
Herunter schau ich in ein Grab,
bin zum Glück so weit so fern.

Strophe 1:
Voll Schmerz betrachte ich die, die ich einst geliebt habe.
Bei ihrem Anblick vermischt sich Verzweiflung mit Zorn,
als ich bemerke, welche Kälte ihnen entströmt.
Ist Vergessen so leicht, wie es zu sein scheint?

Strophe 2:
Ohnmacht füllt meinen Kopf aus, wird stärker und stärker,
bis sie mir schließlich die Schläfen zu zertrümmern droht.
Meine Hände greifen ins Leere, genau wie meine Gedanken,
ich kann nichts machen, außer Tränen zu vergießen.

Strophe 3:
Verachtung keimt in mir empor und lässt mich lächeln,
als ich die Würmer, die dort kriechen, beobachte.
Voll Spott entsinne ich mich der Vergangenheit,
und kann das Gefühl des Neids doch nicht ganz unterdrücken.

Strophe 4:
Ein wilder weißer Vogel breitet seine Schwingen aus,
erhebt sich aus dem tristen Grau, das ihn umgibt.
Auf halbem Weg zu mir beginnt sein Federkleid zu bluten,
fällt von Ihm ab, so dass er auf dem Grund zerschellt.

Refrain 2:
Ich blicke auf die Welt hinab
von meinem nachten, kalten Stern.
Herunter schau ich in ein Grab,
und läge selbst darin so gern…
