One Hundred Percent

100%
Everything I do
I want to do
One 100%
Everything I say
I stand for one 100%
Everything I feel
I believe one 100%
Even when I lie
It is instinct one 100%
Perfect woman
Always going
One stride forward
And two falling back
Never satisfied
And disbelieving one 100%
Following ideals
Keeping vows one 100%
All the things she wants
Cause despair one 100%
Spending everything
Everything one 100%
Perfect woman…
Fatigued,
what a goal
of always keeping control,
a marionette
of her illogical wish
of always wanting to be a
Perfect woman
Always going
One stride forward
And two falling back

LOVE AND MELODIES
My inner melodies
awaken love
and love
rouses my inner melodies
on my lips
i desire that
melting kiss
it is you on my lips
in every song
it is you on my lips
in every sound
and when the thought of love
threatens to fade
melodies of love
remind and invade
on my lips
i desire that
melting kiss
it is you on my lips
in every song
it is you on my lips
in every sound
so they’ll always appear
hand in hand
and cannot be isolated
love and melodies
melodies and love

FORTUNE TANGO
I – can’t see a thing
only fog, just this fog
The sun keeps burning
but still it can’t get through
Say, how will it be in time
after we have sentenced man to fail
how will they live in peace?
How will they be?
It is always time
that never learns
And never lets you understand
This beautiful moment
Beauty. Beauty.
But how will it be in time
Who will understand and make them believe?
How will they live in peace?
How will they be?
It never is you!
It never is me!
It never is us!
Who will carry the blame?
Who will carry the shame?
Who shall they name?

Where do the clouds go?

Where do the clouds go?
You used to take my breath away
Now I suffocate
You used to be so far away
Now you crush me
Your telescopic fingers frighten me
So far so near
why are you here?!
Where do the clouds go
Where do they live?
Home of my dream
The dream of love
Where do the clouds go?
Where do they live?
They hold my dream
My dream
I used to fill my days with you
and only you
tomorrow was a place to go
and not something you’d know
The essence of our romance was
uncertainty
between you and me

Mind Theatre
Can’t sleep, can’t eat
my body playing games
what I needed - was you
to show me how to be whole-souled
Listen to the noise
inside my mind
listen to the noise
that consumes my mind
I’m seeking hopelessly
the door to let you out
You persuade, inculpably
my oh so confounded shape
Listen to the noise
inside my mind
listen to the noise
that consumes my mind
Don’t leave
don’t ever leave
me out here on my own
Can’t sleep, can’t eat
heading to the unknown
Listen to the noise
inside my mind
listen to the noise
that consumes my mind...
It is all in my mind
my own mind theatre
these doubts and fears and fantasies
it is my own mind theatre
it’s true, it’s so true, my love for you
is my own mind theatre

ENERGY VAMPIRES
Who – who are you
to judge anybody
only – only
by the things that you don’t see
by the things that you don’t see
Can you see me from there?!
Can you feel me from there?!
Dadarada…
You’re waiting
For something to happen
always waiting
for someone to stumble
Who – who am I?
To have you change your mind
A change – a little change
Wouldn’t do you any harm
Wouldn’t do you any harm
Can you hear me from there?!
Can you reach me from there?!
Dadarada…
You’re waiting
For something to happen
always waiting
For someone to stumble
You’re waiting
for me to forget it
Just waiting
For something to happen

Witness of your life
You’re so beautiful
Make me see there is a way
You’re so beautiful
Make my words know what to say
Make me go on every day
You’re so beautiful
Make me know that I am brave
Make me sense you miles away
Let me be a witness of your life
Let me be a witness of your life
You are beautiful
Make me feel what I should pray
La la la la la lala la
Let me be a witness of your life
Let me be a witness of your life
Lalalalalalalala

To forgotten places

To Forgotten Places
So he took her to the shore of the forgotten river
Crimson Blood out
flowing from the holes in her heart
From her eyes and soul
leaving bare footprints of forgotten love behind in time
Save me
Oh winded wind and water
Save me
From these uneasy waters
Save me, she thought,
Not looking up
He sat her cautiously in the boat waiting by the shore,
wrapped their spilled togetherness in a little cloth.
A harsh wind blew this helpless act into overtones
And, without anything to hold on to
The boat set its way through the forgotten river
Save me
Oh winded wind and water
Save me
Until the current becomes too intense
Save me, she said.
You forgot to hold the lead,
She is drifting in the boat through blue rivers
towards forgotten places.
Towards kindness and understanding
Towards respectful conversation
Towards civilized behaviour
Towards togetherness
Save me
In these troubled waters
Save me
I will be gone forever
Save me, she whispered
Not looking back

DINNER 41
Dinner is served
Dinner at home
Dinner for one
My face in my glass of red wine
keeps staring at me continuously
Yes, I’m feeling just fine.
Am I feeling fine?
Is this my place
with my name on it?
is this my place?
I tried to change my seat
move it into a different light, a different sight
my lifestyle, through alternative eyes
So then I assume and I behave
with every single little bite
like if someone were here tonight
oh if only someone were here tonight
Is this my place
with my name on it
Is this my place?
My home
my self made home
home
Dinner for one
Dinner for one

The Yellow Fake Brigade
Don’t let them bring you down
Don’t let them fake your way
Don’t let them interfere in your lifetime
Your accuracy is a gift,
is a weapon against the yellow fake brigade
have a tea in a pliant hour
and smile
The little things
Will always be those
that hold the difference
The big things just happen
anyway while you smile
Good friends for only good times
rely on your gentle tolerance ability
They are as numb as possible
in need
The little things
Will always be those
that hold the difference
The big things just happen
anyway while you smile
Try to say it with other words
the same will not feel exactly as it was
that’s why the yellow fake brigade has a name
that’s why the yellow fake brigade has a name
that’s why the yellow fake brigade has a name

I am You Here and Now
All I have – is in my hands – today
All I want – is in my eyes – today
All I love – is in my heart – today
I am You – and You are me – today, today
Melting in the absence of time
Through you I am freed of space and time
All I am – is who I am – today
Melting in the absence of time
Through you I am freed of space and time
Living each moment as if it were the last
I truly surrender to here and now
