lyrics

he who reigns

the king reigns, isn´t it so? but what if in the end, there are none to reign over?

won´t the King feel a little sad and lonley then? scared, even

sometimes

turn to others for guidance

if where you go don´t do you no good

he who wants

oh, how he wants desperately ...but never will he get involved - no emotions allowed, nor desired, nor nothing. what a fate!

energy

from a pool with no end go, burn it

till the shit hits the fan

he who wants

oh, how he wants desperately ...but never will he get involved - no emotions allowed, nor desired, nor nothing. what a fate!

eerie,

is that feeling that of being watched in the shadows, at night, in the light of day that of being told what to do, at every turn eerie...

so simple

it would be, if someone just told you to hit the brakes before it´s too late

and youlistened...

in life

you sometimes want to try things out different stuff that sometimes backfires in a way, terribly in a way, beautifully!

just for a moment

that feeling, washing through you love, enlightenment just a glimpse lingers

magic

it seems, takes on many shapes and sizes


sometimes frigthening


sometimes exhilariting


but never to be feared!

spent

the weekend with the best of friends i, rockin´ how very nice it was then they were all gone and it wasn´t nice at all :(

so nice

were the things i was gonna tell you! then, all of a sudden

it was all gone

body, spirit and soul

we´re built so differently, some have a strong skeleton, some a strong mind,

some neither

you know,

those rotten days the ones that take no prisoners

the weather forecast

says clouds are coming and you can´t stop them for haven´t you honed the skill? that of going with the downward flow spiralling

life

is so precious yet some will want to give it

up

a dreary mood

thoughts wander, to dark places


still - the sun might be shining, if only you look up!

there are times

when even those who do not believe pray because there is no other way

this song

not at all written as a prayer but the years molded it into one

a true thing

cannot be said too often

if only

you could spread your wings and fly - far above the dark clouds, to where the sun is ever shining and the sky is ever blue!

hope and anticipation

is like a long road with something nice at the end


is like sailing the wide sea - your sea!


is like climbing a tall, tall mountain


too bad, then if you don´t quite believe in it, in yourself

it´s when the little things go grand

that things start to go awry, asunder and spiral out of control.

some people say



a lot of things

on how you should behave



would they like it the other way around?



...then again - they might be right...

it´s not easy



to find the way

you may try it on your own



you may try to get some help



...or maybe both?

finally!



the feeling of holding on to something solid!


that there is a piece of REAL in your life


ever so evasive



...but here now - for how long?

coz everything is just so bad these days
and i feel like i cannot win
feel like i cannot win

lying flat out on the couch
lying flat out on my bed
can´t remember what he said
the shrink with the bright side
all i want is to hide

coz everything is just so bad these days
and i feel like i cannot win
feel like i cannot win
coz everything is just so bad these days
and i feel like i cannot win
feel like i cannot win

the phone rings
i let it ring
i´m curious of no things
everything is black and damp and cold
and i feel like i cannot cope no more

coz everything is just so bad these days
and i feel like i cannot win
feel like i cannot win
coz everything is just so bad these days
and i feel like i cannot win
feel like i cannot win

the project

.songs from the realm of biPolar disOrder

these songs were written over a period of 15-16 years before i realized they all hailed from the same place: the realm of biPolar disOrder.

so i started to piece them together, by what state of the biPolar spectrum they belong to - psychosis, mania, depression, hope, and so forth.

recording and re-recording them is an on-going project. some are "done", other´s need more work, so stay tuned for improvements!
