Geniuses
05:15

When it comes to things that matter, admiring here I sit.
Thoughts so straight and clear. It's fascinating, I admit
My thoughts are always racing and I do not understand
The process that led to deduct the result they got in the end.
Admiring a genius.
The key to so much progress is a great mind at work.
Mathematical jargon of which I don't understand a word.
Of fundamental importance for all of humanity.
Playing with logic patterns that I could not even see.
Admiring a genius.
Tell me how to spacetravel
Tell me how to timetravel
Tell me how to program
Tell me how to clone men

Flowering Grasses
04:40
|

You who more than anyone obeyed the ten commandments are you who more than anyone broke the ten commandments.
You who more than anyone loved the masses are you who more than anyone despises now the masses.
You who more than anyone burned with ideals are you who more than anyone knew reality.
You are what our world has bred, an abandoned railroad track that smells now of flowering grasses.
You who more than anyone defends a side are you who more than anyone takes the point out of your fight.
You who more than anyone has made mistakes are you who more than anyone shows the courage that it takes.
You who more than anyone act out of fear are you who more than anyone brings the danger near.
You are what our world has bred, an abandoned railroad track that smells now of flowering grasses.

Karojisatsu
03:07
|
|||
I'm virtually spending physical hours in a vacuum with unknown friends. Swiping down a screen, I'm waiting. Pushed off my path, I'm out for a new love, someone who shares the dreams I have, revolutionary dreams I had.
From nine to five I lose my faith in the vultures' and the cowards' cave
From five to nine I sit and look at sculptures, busts and clocks and books.
Just keep snoozing, my eyes are bruising. Every morning you're in my head. I shake you off. You're shaken back. I'm a broken soul looking for a meaning, looking for family on the world wide web. Well, its not working. You're all working!
From nine to five I lose my faith in the vultures' and the cowards' cave
From five to nine I sit and look at sculptures, busts and clocks and books.
I heard of a club called 27 and they're hosting a party but I won't get in, because it's members only and requires talent.
From nine to five I lost my faith in the vultures' and the cowards' cave
From five to nine I sat and looked at sculptures, busts and clocks and books.

In Reciprocity
03:17
|
|||
Strain your lover's backbone through his perforated fear.
Sift through her muddy distrust and extract the elixir.
Squeeze your lover's courage, fish the doubts out of his juice.
Cojones at the right time, make her cared for past her youth.
Stay with me in the reciprocity of a brave brave love, like none other!
Any broken bone, well, it can only heal when both ends are not too far apart.
Force his chickens out the cage before they start to breed.
Offer cover when she's dauntless, but step on her cold feet.
Crush him like a pillow until there's no white feathers left.
Suck out all her valour, make it splurt out of her chest!
Stay with me in the reciprocity of a brave brave love, like none other!
Any broken bone, well, it can only heal when both ends are not too far apart.
They leave you to bleed out, over and over again.
They leave you to bleed out!
They leave you to bleed out, until you only can love yourself,
until you can only love yourself!
You should've stayed with me in the reciprocity of a brave brave love, like the one we had! Once a broken bone, well, now we're amputees and with a limb less we're now back at the start.
...and I don't care.

Meeresgrund
02:56
|
|||
Ahoi!
Runter ziehst Du mich.
An den tiefsten Punkt.
An den Meeresgrund.
...und gibst mich nie mehr her.
Ich weiß der Tag kommt.
Für immer dein!
Ahoi!

The Brave Love
06:03
|
|||
Young one, listen! When you're young you can't be wrong.
Make the most of that ego while it's strong, while it doesn't play along.
Cherish it before it's gone!
The fearful hate the brave love.
The fear of hate can make you hateful.
The fearful hate the brave love.
The fear of hate can make you hateful.
The brave love.

The Scale
03:13
|
|||
Have you ever tried to balance a scale?
If one end is too heavy you're predicted to fail.
All weight placed on one end for equality's sake.
will only cause the whole scale to break.
Now they're burning books and we're all back at the start
Whatever books they burn that is fascist at heart
Whether you're left or right doesn't make you right or wrong
Ideological aggression only makes your opposition grow strong and carry on doing wrong, on and on

Home
02:28
|
|||
When your home breaks, it will always leave a scar.
It will break your comfort, it'll barricade your heart.
But whether it's a sad return to find that all your friends are debt
Or a reason to break free from the life that you once led
Your heartache, it will always cease and once it does so,
you'll find an inner piece is missing.
When your home breaks, it will always leave a scar.
It will break your comfort, it will barricade your heart.
But whether it's a sad return to find that all your friends are debt
Or a reason to break free from the life that you once led
Your heartache, it will always cease and once it does so,
you'll find an inner peace.

The Lonely Workaholic
03:20
|
|||
My words are in my head and not ever on my tongue at all
Although I worked so hard on it, I still just feel I can't just call you up
and tell you how I feel, how I really really feel. I feel like if I just give in, I'll die within an eye's blink, from exhaustion and emotional distress.
I'm a lonely workaholic boy.
All of my heroes, they've died in my dreams.
I'm dealing with my apathy.
I'm a lonely workaholic boy
All of my heroes, they've died in my dreams.

Survival of the Fittest
05:35
|
|||
Wherever I seek, I see the survival of the fittest, not of the kindest.
Wherever I seek, I see the reign of the killers and thieves.
A thief, is that what you want me to be? Because you seem to like it.
How can we develop to peace?
