Dusty sunset
This must be the place
And above all, the characteristics of the place
This must be the time
To be nowhere to be found
To light up all the candles and go around
To acknowledge the stones that each day has given us
And then throw it all back to where the flowers look like dust
Throw it all back to where the sunset looks like rust
There must be a way of slowing down the pace
This must be the mind that's always been so hard to find
Go light up all the candles and go around
Acknowledge the stones that each day has given us
And then throw it all back to where the flowers look like dust
Throw it all back to where the sunset looks like rust
This must be the place and above all, the characteristics of the place

Erde an Zauberlehrling

Erde an homo consumens
Seit Ewigkeiten kreise ich im Weltall
Gebäre Feuer, Wasser, Luft und Erde
Zu jeder Zeit darf alles Leben werden
Ich teil' und teil' mich immerzu in Vielfalt
Nur du mein Kind entziehst dich meinem Halt
Deine Liebe zu mir liegt in Scherben
Warum willst du denn alles hier gefährden?
Hör' doch mein Lied, das in dir widerhallt
Denn seit geraumer Zeit fühl' ich mich schwach
Ich atme schwer, weiß weder ein noch aus
Bitte gib doch wieder auf mich Acht
Du weißt ich bin dein einziges Zuhaus'
Bevor es finster wird und ewig Nacht
Ruf' ich dir zu, wach' auf, wach' endlich auf

Prioritäten
Dir isch lieber du stehsch guat da, als dass amal a bissl was versteahsch
Dir isch lieber du wirksch überlegen, als wie zwischendurch a bissl z'überlegen
Lieber bildesch dir recht viel ein, als wie halbwegs im Bilde zu sein
Du gehsch lieber mit der Masse baden, als wie lei oamal eppes hinterfragen
Und mir isch lieber, du bisch weit gnuag weg von mir
Mir isch lieber, wenn i nix hear und riach von dir
Dir sein lieber fremde Halbwahrheiten, als wie amal an eig'nen Weg beschreiten
Dir isch lieber es bleibt all's beim Alten, als wie es Leben amal umgestalten
Du tuasch lieber and're kommandier'n, als wie di selber amal richtig spiarn
Lieber biagsch dir alles wie's grad brauchsch, als dass der Wahrheit in die Augen schaugsch
Und mir isch lieber, du bisch weit gnuag weg von mir
Mir isch lieber, wenn i nix hear und riach von dir

Glaubensgeständnis
I glab ans Paradies im Diesseits und an a Leben vorm Tod
I glab an lebenslange Neugier und Ausrottung jeglicher Habgier
I glab, dass Herz und Hirn lei Hand in Hand so richtig funktionieren
I glab, dass kritisches und waches Denken dem Leben mehr Bedeutung schenken
I glab die Zeit isch reif... für Wandlungsfähigkeit
I glab i bin bereit...
I glab an wertvolle Lektionen, de alls und jedem innewohnen
I glab an die Intuition als durchaus g'sunde Institution
I glab ganz fest an den Erhalt der Arten- und Naturvielfalt
I glab sogar an positiven Wandel durch konstant gewissenhaftes Handeln
I glab die Zeit isch reif... für Kollektivarbeit
Und i glab i bin bereit... für Krisenfestigkeit
Es isch höchste Zeit
Und i woas i alloan,.. bin nit amal a Tropfen auf dem hoassen Stoan
Lei mitanand, Hand in Hand, bring ma wenn ma well'n so ziemlich alles z'samm
I glab ans Fragen stellen und i glab ans no genauer wissen well'n
I glab a Kluft zwischen Tian und Red'n sollt's im Idealfall gar it geben
I glab die Zeit isch reif... für Aufrichtigkeit
I glab i bin bereit... für Vorbildlichkeit
I glab die Zeit isch reif... für Zukunftsfähigkeit
I glab i bin bereit... für a nuie Zeit

Lucky Day
I got on my bike, I made it straight to a river
I followed the river till I reached the sea
Got rid of my clothes and took a dip in the water
`cause that was just where I was longing to be, thinking...
Almost nothing left to desire for today
To call this one... another lucky day
I took out my uke and played a song to the wind
Embraced the dreams that arrived and felt my blood go so wild
I took some deep breaths and let the sun warm my skin
All my best plans were none, yet everything would be fine, thinking...
Almost nothing left to desire for today
To call this one... another lucky day
I cycled back to the city with some lines in my mind
Felt at peace with myself and so with everything else
What a gift just to witness those clouds in the sky
All that was yet to come, oh well I just couldn't tell, thinking...
Almost nothing left to desire for today
To call this one... another lucky day

Pfingstmontag
The sun is still the same
Yet it shines so much brighter than just yesterday
And the air, it may not be clearer
Yet today, the sky feels so much nearer
And the gentle breeze it feels so divine
While all the leaves are waving me hello
... Since you are on my mind
Since I've seen your smiling eyes
And my heart, it may beat the same way
Yet it beats much more decisively today
My breath, it may not have changed
Yet today I breathe so much lighter than just yesterday
And the gentle breeze it feels so divine
While all the leaves are waving me hello
... Since you are on my mind
Since I've seen your smiling eyes
Since I'm spending all my time with you...
on my mind

Ode To The Sun

Ode to the sun
Have a look at the sky
I think it s high time for a ride
Let's jump into the van
And get away, as far as we can
Let's find a nice place by a lake
And feel the wind on our face
Let us lie down by the waterside
Till we feel like taking another dive
Let us float and inhale the day
Drink some sunlight
before it fades away
I got my uke with me, let's sing some songs
To feel as one is all I want
And when the sun starts sinking behind the trees
We're all feeling satisfied and free
Let us float and inhale the day
Drink some sunlight
and then watch it fade away ...
away...

Ancient tribes
Hey Ancient tribe, I swear I’m on your side
You gotta stand your ground, oh with all your might
Hey Ancient tribe, I swear I’m by your side
You gotta take a stand on your sacred land
For thousands of years we’ve lived without the fear
That somebody could come and chase us away from here
Hey Ancient tribe, I swear I’m on your side
You gotta stand your ground, oh with all your might
Hey Ancient tribe, I swear I’m by your side
You gotta take a stand on your sacred land
We’re no harm to anyone, yet we’re ordered to move on
We’re no harm, we do no wrong, yet they want us to be gone
Oh in the name prophets, we’re going to get you dispossessed
Oh in the name of progress, we’re going to put you all to rest
Oh in the name of profits, we’re going to have you dispossessed
Oh in the name of progress, we’re going to make the planet one big mess
Hey Ancient tribe, I swear I’m on your side
You gotta stand your ground, oh with all your might
Hey Ancient tribe, I swear I’m by your side
You gotta take a stand on your sacred land

Friends Like You

Friends like you
I've got friends that I rarely see, yet so familiar when we meet
And I've got friends who are glad to give a hand in whichever way they can
I've got friends who offer me their bed and sleep in sleeping bags themselves
I've got friends who understand oh so clearly who I am (almost better than myself sometimes)
And I guess that I'm more than blessed... with friends like you
Yeah I guess that I'm more than blessed... with friends like you
I've got friends who've helped me grow so much and make me go ahead
I've got friends who proved to be friends indeed when I was so in need
And I've got friends who call up friends when they need help in helping me
I've got friends who cheer me up by making me want to make them laugh
Yeah I guess that I'm more than blessed... with friends like you
Ah you know we never know just what the future holds
But I'll try to be true and to just be a friend like you
And I know that I'm more than blessed... with friends like you
Yeah I know that I'm more than blessed... with friends like you
Mmh I do love you too...

Railways
Sittin' on a train in the Czech Republic
Travellin' beyond borders
Thinkin' 'bout the ways that I'd like to change
And wonderin' how to regain mental order
While the raindrops are fallin' on the rails
The sound they're makin' might be some precious tale
That you'll only hear if you try not to translate
Sittin' on the same train but now in Germany
Allowin' myself to make these lines a mess
'Cause nothing might ever really reach the ground
Before these lights are goin' out...
While the sunrays are dryin' up the rails
And the silence in them might be a precious tale
That you'll only hear if you try not to translate
And the raindrops are fallin' on the rails
The sound they're makin' might be some precious tale
That you'll only hear if you try not to translate

More Peace

More peace
He looked at the other
Who had already gone
And he could not help wondering
If the other had fun
A little envious
So much was obvious
And he could not help wondering
If he'd ever be off so well ... oh well
And he tried so hard... making one more piece of art
And he tried so hard... just not to fall apart
And suddenly a door opened
When he looked in her face
He could not help wondering
About life, chance and fate
And suddenly a door closed
And he stared into space
And he could not help wondering
If he'd always be so late
