Just beyond the branches of light
your face lies, waiting for response
an eyebrow triggering my mind
an air of times long gone
It wouldn't be so hard if there were only you and I
it wouldn't be so hard if you'd just let that pedigree go
is it always a coincident, always a surprise
that everybody's making it except for little you
No I wouldn't really call it a fact
but maybe you're the end of that proud family line
or maybe I am just full of crap
or maybe the beginning of mine
Hovering above us on the wall
captured in gilded immortality
the brilliance that made you all so tall
the brilliance that set off your misery
It wouldn't be so hard if there were only you and me
it wouldn't be so hard if you'd let go of history
‘cause nothing seems to end that sad affair of yours with fate
all your pretty messengers they all show up too late
No I wouldn't call it a fact
that maybe you're the end of that proud family line
maybe I am just full of it
or maybe the beginning of mine
It wouldn't be so hard if there were only you and me
it wouldn't be so hard if you'd let go of your family
Maybe you're the end of that proud family line
while maybe, I am the beginning of mine
So kindly will you shut up
and shut the light out too
cause all I really want is you
It's so easy
so easy

Normal Song
02:37

Give me two strong hands and I shall choke myself
and feed me to the birds
give me two big feet to liberate somebody
prepare it for rebirth
Am I just a normal man
born in a normal land
was it just my normal thoughts I heard?
and all the things I’ve seen
on this world wide 4D screen
nothing strange in a loony world
am I normal after all?
I just want to live forever, stay on healthy
and finally die of age
but I can not help this envy when I read
the obituary pages
Am I just a normal man
born in a normal land
a normal land in a fallen world?
where the one who gets it all
is the one who’s got it all
a normal man in a crazy world?
am I normal after all?
Wrote this song some while ago
and there’s something ‘bout it that is not so nice
don’t know what, but that something
makes me wish that I won't write it twice
Am I just a normal man
born in a normal land
am I really normal after all?
am I born into a world,
from page one and on disturbed
am I really normal after all?

Fly

So here we are again
high above all the others
I can see them all
foes, friends, lovers, my mother
my Father is the one I’m gonna meet
There’s the boulevard
street of dreams, they look like toys now
I can see the girl, faceless, nameless
teach clueless boys how
this will never be the one she'll teach
'Cause the sky is blue it blows my mind
because the wind is high it makes me cry
Here upon this bridge
from then to then via now
I see it all so clear
all these days, weeks and hours
but soon they'll pull the bridge from under my feet
So speak to me as I stand here before you
betray me now or let me come inside
the eyes, the face, the force, I do adore you
the light, the voice that tell me I can fly
Here I am again, high above the world
take good care of my little girl
just think of me as another satellite
the moon, the stars, you know I fell in love
a small step for a man, and I fly

Horses

Maybe I’ve just got too much to tell you
maybe I’ve not got enough to say
you stare at my silence and long for some violence
something to crack your own dismay
Who am I, am I in your heart
I want to love you but I don’t know where to start
I’ve got my girlfriends and you’ve got your horses
all that is fine but still something’s true
if you’ve got a horse when I’ve got a girlfriend
I don’t expect to get through to you
Who am I, am I in your heart
I want to love you but I don’t know where to start
I met your sister on the street
and if you’re not interested
she and I could be quite neat
ich und deine Schwester
Maybe I’ve just got too much to tell you
or maybe I’ve not got enough to say
maybe I’ve talked to much already
tell me to shut up and go away
Maybe I’ve just got too much to tell you
maybe I’ve not got enough to say
you stare at my silence and long for some violence
something to crack your own dismay
You’ve got your horses and I’ve got my girlfriends
all that is fine but still something’s true
if you’ve got a horse when I’ve got a girlfriend
I don’t expect to get through to you
am I just just another horse

Still

Well if you’re coming around
we’re gonna go out walking
like we used to do
there’s a place we could go
to hear the local bands
and try to understand
the things that we once knew
Maybe get something to drink
something to believe in
like a road out of here
we used to sneak out of school
we used to go into town
dissect the life of the clowns
stuck in stable decay
tell me are you still there?
So far so good
tell me are you still there?
You never even understood
tell me are you still there?
You should've known it all along
your life was in your hands
And in the night that we breathe
we’ll find a way to the past
to be our guiding light
I will show you around
right where I started again
to be a better man
not believing in lies
tell me are you still there?
And we might do it all again
get together for some time
and we will play it for the night
cause night was always on our side
when we were young with dreams alive
with life ahead and stars in reach
and we will do it all again
we will play it for the night
tell me are you still there?
