Living on my own Laptop dinner at home alone Starting my day early Without a hurly burly At night getting wasted To get a sleep in bed And then suddenly you stand there With your black long hair Ref: I've been waiting my lifetime For someone like you Now I´m standing and staring Not knowing what to do Working as an IT crack In a big 70ties shack. Talking on the phone Always hitting the right tone Everything is routine Vacuum, laundry, dry clean And then suddenly you stand there With your black long hair Ref: I've been waiting my lifetime For someone like you Now I´m standing and staring Not knowing what to do I've been waiting my lifetime For someone like you Now I´m standing and staring Not knowing what to do I've been waiting my lifetime I've been waiting my lifetime I've been waiting my lifetime I've been waiting my lifetime I've been waiting my lifetime

Move 02:32
Ref: Move I can not stand still Move I can not stand still Don't relax Keep on track My wasted time Antism Try to sit Five second I can Nothing to do My wasted time I have to I have to I have to Ref: Move I can not stand still Move I can not stand still Multi-task On the phone Speeding at Traffic jam Have to Improve Run With a walking shoe Sleep or run Sleep or run..... I have to I have to I have to Ref: Move I can not stand still Move I can not stand still

Fire 03:29
Fire burning fire Fire burning fire Ref: You've got that fire deep in your soul You've got that fire that starts to roll Your burning fire is burning a hole Your burning fire is out of control Fire burning fire Fire burning fire Fire burning fire Fire burning fire Ref: You've got that fire deep in your soul You've got that fire that starts to roll Your burning fire is burning a hole Your burning fire is out of control 4x Fire Fire burning fire Fire burning fire Fire burning fire Fire burning

Saviour I'm not your air shield I'm not your gun I'm not your alibi I'm not the sun I'm not the impeccable No shepherd to come I'm not your scapegoat I'll be on the run Ref: 'Cause I'm not your saviour There is no fountain of youth I don't walk over water Keep with the truth I'm not a preacher Won't tell you what to come I'm not your teacher Not a trophy you've won I'm not your ante-type No ice cream in a cone Honey, I am serious Try it alone Ref: 'Cause I'm not your saviour There is no fountain of youth I don't walk over water Keep with the truth
5.
With My Eyes 04:01
With my eyes With my eyes I do not see With my heart I do not feel This is sure not good enough For you, for me, for everybody Try to raise the amplitude Try to raise the speed To get something going on I have to proceed Why am I doing this Where is my vocation Do I really have the skills The predisposition Can I see the effect of my devotion My action, my effort Of all my doing Ref.: With my eyes I do not see With my heart I do not feel With my eyes I do not see With my heart I do not feel With my eyes I do not see
6.
Believe 03:00
Believe I do not believe In a dog or other story-teller I do not need A healer or immortal prophets I am a breed In the bloodline of the monkeys but what is my creed? It's the faith in my lifetime Ref: I just believe In the things I feel and I see I just want to achieve That all my thoughts are free Why should I praise the healer I don´t need a ratio stealer I rely on my mind And leave all the credence behind I am intelligent and a designer, Fuck all these tea party right-wing-miners. I do not believe My thoughts are free Ref: I just believe In the things I feel and I see I just want to achieve That all my thoughts are free 2x Ref: I just believe In the things I feel and I see I just want to achieve That all my thoughts are free

This Time it is for Real It came without a warning It struck me hard this morning You put your stuff in a van Did it as fast as you can. You carried away all your treasure Oh no, this was no real pleasure You often said you would go I didn't think you would do so Ref: And you said: Oh, why don't you feel, that this time it's for real Oh, why don't you feel, that this time it's for real Was it that I am to boring Was it because I was snoring You said this time it is final While you took all your vinyl I simply can't believe it Now I see what I get And this empty space Abandoned from your grace Ref: And you said: Oh, why don't you feel, that this time it's for real Oh, why don't you feel, that this time it's for real Ref: And you said: Oh, why don't you feel, that this time it's for real Oh, why don't you feel, that this time it's for real
8.
Dance 02:53
Dance Dance from the start Dance with your mind Dance with your heart Dance like a blind Dance come apart Dance all rewind Dance Dance Dance 'till you sweat Dance 'till the flood Dance like a jet Dance with your blood Dance till your wet Dance like you would Dance
9.
Before It Rains Lying there sticky and hot Wondering will I make it or not It's so humid I can't move a lot I'm feeling like a hot meal in a pot Don't you come before it rains Don't you come before it rains A cold shower just gives me a shot I should go but somehow I can not I'm running wet and my thoughts are caught The air is static I'm starting to rot Ref: Don't you come before it rains Don't you come before it rains
10.
Heading for the door When I come around It's not funny anymore That's not easy for me When I come around I'll be right heading towards the door That' s not easy for you Ref: I'll be right heading towards the door 'Cause I wanna be living off the shore When I come around I'll offend them yes I do It's not easy for me When I come around I'll be feeling blue It's not easy for you Ref: I'll be right running for the door 'Cause I can not take it anymore When I come around I'll be acting like a fool It's not easy for me When I come around I'll be breaking the rule That's not easy for you Ref: I'll be running for the door 'Cause I can not take it anymore Ref: I'll be heading for the door 'Cause I can not take it anymore
11.
Here I Come 03:50
Here I come Here I come here I go Don't want it fast, I want it slow Here I come here I go why keep it high I want it low Here I come here I go Don't want to act Why need the show Ref: At the riverside No need to hide Ships passing me by With the wind in my eyes At the riverside (Don't want it fast, I want it slow) Much to fast In the past This feeling should last No energy blast At the bank No shoe, no lace Gliding into water space (I want it, I want it) Ref: At the riverside No need to hide Ships passing me by With the wind in my eyes At the riverside (Don't want it fast, I want it slow) Here I come here I go Don't want it fast, I want it slow (At the riverside, with the wind in my eyes at the riverside)

Gray Shaded Rainbow Don't you walk by on a gray shaded rainbow Don't you walk by, or is that what you do Would I walk by on a gray shaded rainbow Can I walk by with you Don't you get high deep in the shadow Don't you get high, or is that what you do Would I get high deep in the shadow Can I get high with you Don't you walk by on a gray shaded rainbow Don't you walk by, or is that what you do would I walk by on your gray shaded rainbow Can I walk by with you Why don't you pass this alley so narrow Why don't you pass, or is that what you do Would I go pass this alley so narrow Can I pass by with you Ref: What do I tell you What do you do Where are you heading Can I go there with you
