No Night before Dawn



No Night before Dawn

Can you see me
This little homely me
Poor and lonesome
As one can be

A firestorm
Around my neck
The desert's calling
For one more wreck

Empty rooms
In empty spaces
Fading memories
Trite fading faces

Empty hearts
Desires and love
Empty blue skies
There high above

Don't want to die
Beyond a real smile
 No, don't want to cry
Walking that mile

God give me happiness
To cover my weary bones
God give me some peace
After too many homes

Let me gladly wake up
With the sun on my face
Blood in all my heart
Power and grace

Open that door
I'm quite longing for
And long before daylight
Ain't be no night there anymore

Auge in Auge mit dem Bösen

Auge in Auge mit dem Bösen

Mein Gott, mein Herrscher
Ich knie hernieder, ich flehe dich an
Laß mich tun, was du zu tun vermagst
Und nicht nur, was ich eben kann

Die Hölle öffnet sich vor mir, die Schlucht
Der Teufel will mich in den Abgrund schlagen
Ich kann keine Zukunft mehr ohne Dich
Ohne Deine ganze Liebe haben

Der Teufelskreis schnürt sich
Und auch mir so den ganzen Atem zu
Ich werde meines Lebens nicht mehr glücklich
Wenn ich nicht in deinen Armen ruh‘

Die Offenbarung liegt nahe
Wie im Bösen, wie im Guten
Tausend Sterne, so wie
Tausend Ruten

Sie werden dich verfolgen
Auch werden sie dich schlagen
Sie werden dich verurteilen
Und auch zu Tode plagen

Gott stehe mir bei
Ich leide jene bittere Qual
Warum hast du mich verlassen
So langsam oder auf ein Mal

Ich "weiß", dass du ja weißt
Denn sie wissen nicht, was sie tun
Und sie kommen über mich
Wie ein riesen Taifun

Gott, oh, mein gnädiger Gott
Ich habe meine ganze Liebe vertan
Nun sehe ich in die Grimasse des Teufels
In seinen erschreckenden und irren Wahn

Hinfort mein Leben
Hinfort meine Passion
Hinfort das Abendmahl
Nur noch bitterer Hohn

Öffne die Pforten des Himmels
Allmächtiger Herrscher, für mich
Sende eine Armee von Engeln
Mein Gott, ich liebe dich

Only Pray

Only Pray

Too much love to so die
And that not enough to live
What am I supposed to get
And what can I so give

It's so awfully some sad
Not to sing a brighter song
Not to glance much lighter
Only to getting so along

What so can I do
What can I even say
To find peace in you
I guess only pray

Pray for a tomorrow
Bright as the golden sun
Pray for the loveliness
Honesty and fun

Just a Man

Just a Man

I'm just a pilgrim
I'm just some man
I'm doing quite well
The best so that I can

My ambitions are holy
My ambitions are fine
My life doesn't fit
It's a crime

Slowly running
Speaking but stunning
Although I'm born to rise
For to love and surprise

Damned you! - Suspense
The adventure is to be I
I'm near to handle it
Don't know why

What does it mean now
Really, to be strong
Whoever you are
Come along

I am so bored
Just to be adored
I wanna be loved
Jesus! My Lord.

Against All Odds


Against All Odds

My mother is an asshole
Sorry, for that! - So now am I!
Seems like I can't get any better
No matter how hard I may ever try

I buck the trend, strive against the stream
Swim against all stupid or reckless all so tide
Notwithstanding the more I want to achieve
The more things get me more to some hide

People used and like to suck out and dry my fortune
Pretty soon they rack the focus and spit you "prettily" again out 
In the name of the one and the only "God" nowadays called "Money"
"For good measure" being "holier-than-thou" and idiotically proud

I know my weaknesses, I'm not perfect,failures don't end to stick around
But yet, am I therefore really not worth a thing, a person or two?
Can't there happen one single good beyond my control?
A feeling or a memory, strong and lovely new

Have I to be some perfect to be loved?
Have I to be that perfect to be undeniably true?
Have I to be perfect to be the priority just for once?
To be once for all one's satisfyingly intimate clue?

I can't see any good and  no persuasive cause
In being courageous, honest and foolish sublime
The world is such a monster not caring a shit 
If you're really right or if to be you seem

Maybe I am "too" weak, "too" soft, "too" far beyond understanding
Maybe I'm "too" sensitive, "love that one", as they like to repeatedly rhyme
Maybe I'm such an idiot, well-earned and pretty insurmountable
Incessantly CASTING PEARLS BEFORE THE SWINE

No matter what I do, nothing is really enough
No matter what I do, I never fit
No matter if I live
Or if I quit

I used to thing very different - "Once upon a time...?"
Distinctive, devoted and "God almighty" that naive, yep, divine
However, maybe there's simply what you do and what you don't indeed
Maybe no matter what you screw it do, it's overall "fine"..!

The main point is, not to forget, you do it for money
The main thing is I have money no matter how at so all
The main issue is not to partake some little humanity
Having at that "Generousness's Supper" a ball

Won't say that I wouldn't appreciate
To be financially  independent and free
But before I'd be loved for my achievements
I probably would prefer in dignity to hit the sea

My mother hates me, condemns me
Is a wall of prejudices. - So am I, right now
I really want to save my nauseated butt for good, for sure
But, "To hell...!" - I don't know, "Damn it...!" - "Bleeding...!” How?

GOD, bad timing in case? But "The last calling", I guess
Signing me to mirror a happy veracious me
Send me, oh, an angel of epiphany
Let me GO and let me BE
