Light in Eden*
Let me go
And let me fall
It's getting light in Eden
Catch me
And speak softly
Tell me it's alright
Always on the move
Always on my guard
Always lonesome
And yet never alone
Always on the run
But never arrived
Anywhere
I've run for my life
Always on the edge
And carried on
On and on
Misread the signs
Walked on
Banished away
Always hidden
But recognized no one
Moved on
Without understanding
I'm no longer me
I've changed my name
Yesterday and tomorrow
Always hounded
Swallowed my words
And misjudged their meaning

The City Streets
When everything gets dark from the lifeless grey
And powers perish, because time smothers them
When the words atrophy before the sad gaze
And no laughter sounds through the city streets
In the tears of heaven, your hope drowns
Because your longing fades and desires bleakness*
When the movie of your life no longer throws shadows
And no eye takes in the beauty of the emptiness
Your will broken from the endless load
Thoughts disturb in the dying night
You only speak very softly, pull yourself further away
You gave up without a fight, always feel alone
Did no one understand you? You look back sadly
Weighed down by the silence, you'll slowly be destroyed
In the tears of heaven, your hope drowns
Because your longing fades and desires bleakness
When the movie of your life no longer throws shadows
And no eye takes in the beauty of the emptiness
When this life reveals itself to you, completely quiet,
Then you will collapse, because you don't forgive yourself
