01. Where Angels Fear To Tread
Lyrics by Steffen |
there is a fragile space between what is and what is done all the words tainted with a smile that made us laugh and cry we swayed like fireflies when we strayed in many subtle ways you’ve killed the coil outside open secrets spread in many clever ways you’ve killed the coil and your biography |
Lyrics by Williamson |
daylight sleeps as night falls and marks the end of the day while half the world lies sleeping the other will start to find its lonely way what do we do when no one needs us what do we do when no one wants us i will walk this earth wire in the blood, engine in the heart I understand the reasons why I fall apart and in my paradigm I see my inner self through these eyes as I am standing here for all the things that be close my eyes so I may see |
Lyrics by Steffen |
something broke the even surface, camouflaged and partly blind, parading fireflies in the orange light. something nameless woke each other’s perfect luck each other’s blessing each other’s blue sky each other’s paradise I saw the writhing shapes of men we’re a song felt in the deepest bones, we’re like butterflies just a picture dear |
04. The Trick Is To Keep Breathing
Lyrics by Steffen |
how can we move on with all the scars that numb the soul? how can we just simply smile while half the world is going down? (this time, going down, this time) oh, if love is not enough this time all that we can do in this cold all that we can do in this light so many times we blindly throw away (this time, it’s going down, this time) and you and me holding a plain truth all that we can do in this cold all that we can do in this light |
Lyrics by Steffen |
find you here no more just an empty space everything is sleeping in this shadow all files erased I can’t let go now of this shadow I remember your hands I remember your voice when you stole from my room the world got much older then I paint ourselves in pictures, I need to fill the space with all my yearning still walking with your ghost so lead me out of this darkness and this shadow forever walking with your ghost |
Lyrics by Steffen |
don’t you worry cause I’m safe and calm right now evening’s falling and I’m nourished by the rain Markus Steffen they say that leaving is a way of going down torn asunder on a long and winding road so now a train pulls out at night when all is said all through the night all through the night dark is coming as home is where I am and where I go… it’s all gone now the sea is roaring they say that going but all is said all through the night all through the night dark is coming as home is where I am and where I go… |
Lyrics by Bertok |
There…Stretching on for miles Roads to paradises unfound To your Elysium Dare… To search those marble isles And your wishes hit ground- The ancient atrium Notions keep spinning inside us Motion keeps bringing the tide More Of those Winding tracks And the blinding traces inside the mind Your ego’s trembling cracks Personal-Divine Lies the truthful wine Son of travel you’ll be and sing And someone else returning Walk On Be your road never-ending Wisdom Is yielding to its bending Homeward As long as we grow finding Wayward And it’s twisting without turning back Learn The wordless thoughts Hope that you´ll journey on And that your road is long Silence whispers And your heart still sings And whoever you’ll meet again will think That someone else was returning Walk On Your road be never-ending Wisdom Is yielding to its bending Homeward As long as we grow finding Wayward And it’s twisting without turning back Without loosing its track Making you weary, Making you sleepy “Keep your silence, deaf to sirens, blind to comfort, blind to rest and steadily…” Yielding indulgence Yield to their presence Walk On Your road be never-ending Wisdom Is yielding to its bending Homeward As long as we grow finding Wayward And it’s twisting without turning back Taking More than we leave behind us Waking The thoughts that never found us Wayward A source of deep enlightenment Homeward And it’s twisting without turning back… |
Lyrics by Steffen |
outside my window a world in shades of grey, things break and never really heal, and still I must be clinging on to something to feel alive… when all the earth is sleeping in the dark I keep on searching cause I believe Mother, help me through the longest of nights. hear the mountains roar and Mother, help me through the longest of nights. put a blanket on this freezing soul |
Lyrics by Steffen |
Firenze 1992
the sun was setting, setting still the river was an open road ahead, we did paint a fresco of our lives beneath the monument but the unicorns the millboard sword is broken, and if we could go back again now and all unicorns |
11. Rain Is The Most Beautiful Color
Lyrics by Steffen |
so this is what it feels like so this is what it looks like so this is what it tastes like the effigy of sadness let the rain wash over me so this is what I feel like this is the gentle touch of rain lay down, lay down beside of me rest your, rest your weary head you might think you might think for everything I see and breath everything that makes you turn this is the gentle touch of rain |
