Little One 03:40
Go on little one keep on sarching for your dream Go on little one don’t stop until you have found it You are here you and no-one else but you because there’s something here you’re meant to do You will fall and fail you’ll slip and slide and break and bail You’ll hurt, you will ache you’ll doubt yourself and everyone else and the pain when embraced will disappear one day Go on little one you are the on who’s deciding Go on little one you are the one that can change it You create your own world either way your world is what you’re actually paid You will fall and fail you’ll slip and slide and break and bail You’ll hurt, you will ache you’ll doubt yourself and everyone else and the pain when embraced will disappear one day

My Friend 06:09
Don’t apologize my friend it’s time to awaken the man within to a new world everyday the seasons tend to change a decade’s gone while you’ve sat on the bus. How strong, how strong you’ve become my friend and you and I, are still far away from the end it’s only you and I who know our place to hide when the rain sets in and we are set aside You’re older now you’ve seen more and so you hide more often in our spot still I haven’t seen a dark cloud on the sky At last it’s only you my friend and you’ve got all this time to spend and if you spend it wise, keep conquerring your mind then you will be a man and not a child. You’re older now you’ve seen more and so you hide more often in our spot still I haven’t seen a dark cloud on the sky

Far beyond, the furthest star all lights go out, there’s an end to the fire The wind may blow, a leave to your open hand, it grazes your palm And nowhere nowhere else could you have been and felt less tense The world you see is you and how you make it make sence And in a room late at night papers are signed by those given the right It’s ten to twelve the day is done the pen is put back and tomorrow will come While Nadiya sleeps While Nadiya sleeps

The leaves on the ground they’ve fallen from the sky the tree stands alone and weeps The last days have been warm the Autumn wasn’t born until we met today And the stream of cars on the Highway did not end And the daylight is bright it gets brighter all the time and I think to myself its too warm for a fall It comes and goes rises and falls being fulfilled then suddenly crave Searching for something to fill the hole It ain’t Coca-Cola though they make me believe the advertising industry I know that what I want Ain’t for sale anywhere I can’t pay to have my share no-one cooks it in a Laboratory So my mind reaches out holds on to whats about in search of a remedy Of a cause and a purpose for something that’s worthwhile And the search and exploration is what life is all about Most forlks don’t know what they search or why they’re searching at all.. It comes and goes rises and falls being fulfilled then suddenly crave Searching for something to fill the hole It ain’t Coca-Cola though they make me believe the advertising industry I know that what I want Ain’t for sale anywhere Ain’t for sale anywhere Ain’t for sale anywhere Ain’t for sale anywhere

When he first met her he couldn’t think of what to say when he first held her, he couldn’t answer wich day it was it all was too unclear he saw the sun in the waves of her chest-nut colored hair in the wind she came with the wind And for a time the two would walk on happy sunny streets walking hand in hand what a blessing they would meet oh how lucky you can get a hope a chance to believe in the world and in a happy end for a while you can believe for a while Spring is short and summer’s long before fall knocks on your door the winter comes can you hold on then hold on hold on til spring comes around When the two now meet they will hug and say those words that they’re used to now they sound different than at first when each compliment was sweet the fight to earn to survive no longer come that easily gone with the wind it’s gone with the wind And now they both know now they know that it won’t last the holiday is gone the easy love’s part of the past good old Darwin touché two cups of coffee’s left untouched inside an empty street-café gone with the wind she’s gone with the wind Spring is short and summer’s long before fall knocks on your door the winter comes can you hold on then hold on hold on til spring comes around

We put our foot forth and walked new terrains we used an old map we found in a fairytale the skies gave us rainbows we followed in hope our hope grew stronger with each step we took And now we are here, where’s the pot of gold? And the old ones who started our march, they’re all gone And science made us walk faster, but brought no fairytales of hope. So what do we do now, where to we go? A young man is asking, he gets no answer from anyone the skies show no rainbows, the old ones have moved on those who would know, and get answers on their own. So we sit and wait for an answer from a god who we no longer believe in and no longer trust the game of life on earth seems to evil and unjust Hold on says another when walking we did fine perhaps our troubles are caused by a wrong state of mind lets seek new borders, lets walk while we’ve got time lets walk new terrains, even though we’re blind We’ll invent new tales with hope for those to come and a new world will follow, a new land, a new rainbow lets hope that sense and reason, will prosper and grow

It’s always raining when you come to Berlin and I keep forgetting where I’ve been who I’ve seen what it is I’ve done and why I feel surprised that you have arived We sit down we drink our tea the sage in the window the smile you’re not smiling is telling me it’s the last time Is everything ok I ask how’s it going in your life and as you give your answer I am thinking about the time I want to know allthough i don’t need to we’re like the radio sometimes it’s nice I try to feel to see if there is something a sign I should close my hand around yours and hold on And as you go I wonder if this is my life if it would be appropriate to call and apologize to my friends to everyone that I’ve let down the bonds I failed to maintain is this it is this how it will be? Is this life a series of short lived friendships the rain doesn’t stop as you leave.

The Newspaper says and some of my friends a war’s coming closer and I should be scared somehow I just don’t care I’m going back to bed more scared that my heart will stop during the night and even if they are right if it is true that our days in this world are nearly due I’m going out the door to try to meet a stranger to spend the night with to take comfort in her kiss and I will keep my eyes shut and keep my ears closed to peoples complaints and to destructive thoughts I’ve sat up my walls I’ve closed all of my doors I’ve removed my name from my letter box and Tyrannies follow Democracies like winters follows falls it’s all a bad dream It’s a fools mind who thinks the past lies exclusively and only behind who wants to rewind jump over fences and travel in time escaping, erasing not preventing the flaws of his nature closing his mind and thereby closing his eyes to the role that he plays the future he pays the world he creates with the handshakes he makes it’s noone’s fault it’s just people multiplied by billions. The upward scaling of both good and bad in a balance game like the “old school” weights where one side retreats as the other progress the seasons of the cities of the ages of the species do not differ all that much from each- other it seems to be a divine touch and Tyrannies follow Democracies like winters follows falls it’s all a bad dream and how come I think I’m not affected by the changes of the world that I’m in.
