Let's Start Again

Let’s start from the beginning
When everything felt new
Let’s start from scratch
Let’s start again
Another point to take off
To see this whole situation from above
Like a star
Hanging in the blue
Up so far
Completely new
Let’s start again
But once you began it’s hard to pretend
Like you don’t know how it all will end
So certain and yet ready to start
You know the way by heart
Another point to take off
To see this whole situation from above
Like a star
Hanging in the blue
Up so far
Completely new
Let’s start again
Like we were new
New and whole
From head to toe
Completely loved
And born to be
Not good nor bad
Completely there
So full of life
And harmonies
Like fully awake
Let’s start again
Another point to take off
To see this whole situation from above
Like a star
Hanging in the blue
Up so far
Completely new
Let’s start again
Like we were new
New and whole
From head to toe
Completely loved
And born to be
Not good nor bad
Completely there
So full of life
And harmonies
Like fully awake
Let’s start again

What if... (Vaihinger)

What if your best is not good enough?
What if you fail and then get lost?
What if your best friend is in love (in love, in love)
In love with your father’s girlfriend’s son (her son, her son)
But hold on, let’s hang around
What if...
How does that sound
We’re doing alright, we are doing okay
What if the moon drops from the sky (the moon, the moon)
What if the sun went out to soon (the sun, the sun)
But hold on, let’s hang around
What if
How does that sound
We’re doing alright, we are doing okay
Because we can never really know the
Underlying reality oft he world
As a result we construct systems of thought
So we behave as if the world matches our fictions
What if a truth does not exist (what if, what if)
What if ‚what if‘ is all there is (is all there is)

The Ceasing

That day I saw you marry one
I thought it don’t get well along
You used to fight and beat and kick
All in front of your two kids
One time you even broke her jar
Because she crashed your guitar
After a night of coke and trips
She kicked you out, you burnt her shit
Here comes the ceasing
That day we catched some fireflies
You made me promise: „No one dies“
We used to fight and beat and kick
Just like we were normal kids
Everytime I gazed my knees
You helped me up, dried my tears
By the way time went on
No one knew all will be gone
Here comes the ceasing
You have lost your way so why don’t take a hand
So that in your despair no fear will guide your mind
Everyone will be gone
Everything will be gone
All of your friends, all of your life, everything, everything
Your family, forget all you know, everything, everything
Here comes the ceasing

At the End of the Runway
03:20

Don’t be so afraid
It’s already too late
Calm down, lay back
We’ve completeley lost our track
Don’t be so uptight
And loosen up alright
You have put on a fight
You didn’t get it, but you might
I’ve thought I would grow up
But then I only grew old
You can pick up all the pieces and leave
Me at the end of the runway
Will I find some solace
Now that I’m a man
No, you won’t, but I can promise
It will end how it began
We have a lift-off, we have a lift-off
Stay put, buckle up, don’t look out
It’s the ground, we are all going down
Don’t be so afraid
It’s already too late
You can pick up all the pieces and leave
Me at the end of the runway
Where I stay out of sight
And I’m gonna be alright, okay

A Piece of Tomorrow

A piece of tomorrow
The weight of a grain
Don’t worry, sense will follow
You are all in for the fame
The end of a living
At a loss for words
It’s like falling in love
If you know what I mean
Everybody down
Heads to the ground
Put your hands in the air
Nobody move
Face to face with the devil
Laughter of relief
After hours of prayers
To come to grief
He let them stand in a line
Took out one at a time
Oh, a piece of tomorrow
The weight of a grain
Everybody down
Heads to the ground
Put your hands in the air
Nobody move
