Red sunlight pursues me every night.
When I drown. When I sink down.
Deep down a blood red mere.
The kisses of Ra follow me here.
Your warm skin treats me well
To the cold sound of death knell.
And as I’m sunk I’m passing out.
I will slowly start to rot.
Ending up as brown, soft clay.
Cold and wet and washed away.
But once I’m finally dried
By the warmest and brightest shine
I will start a new life
First green as grass then red as wine.
As fast as I had disappeared
I let go and broke away from fear.
Now see what I’ve become.
A beauty is now born.
As fast as I had disappeared
I grew up and left the atmosphere.
I’m glad you are so rife
Dear mother of all life.
Be my blood.
Be my flood.
Be my god.
Never start to stop.

Where is the green in all that grey?
It turned to brown and faded away.
The nights get longer with every day
And all the leaves are bitten, I’m afraid.
Everyone hides inside their house
And all the birds have moved to south.
But I will stay here and won’t come out
Until the flowers begin to sprout.
From the treetops I can see further.
It’s a rush of chlorophyll.
But actually I won’t feel better
Cause the colors are so shrill.
I am hiding my own feelings
Cause I’m ashamed for what I think.
Now I’m staring at the ceiling
And it feels like I would sink.
All I see just disappoints me
While the rest is so in love.
I’m too dumb to simply feel free.
I’m too stern I cannot laugh.
Maybe I’m the bigger problem
And everything is just okay.
But inside my head there’s something bad
And I’m just in my way.
Sunlight awakens all the life.
But I’m so tired that I’d rather die.
Where is the grey in all that green.
It’s all so pied that I could scream.
I want it white like in my dreams.
I want it back like it has been.

I roamed these streets just the other day.
The dull light flashed my eyes so I can’t see.
The glimpse of nothingness made me lose reality.
While the world around is full of apathy.
And I’m a friend you’ll never win.
I’m free from love and full of sin.
This fucked up life just makes me sing.
Cause I’m a freak from the within.
I feel so hot when I’m so cold.
I feel so young but I’m too old.
I feel so high but I’m so low.
I’m made of flesh and made of bones.
Blood rushes deep red through my black soul.
Life is silver, death is gold.
Lungs collapse under the weight
Of once blue skies that turned to grey.
Of heavy rain that hits with pain.
I must return or fade away.
I feel a stranger when I’m home.
I’m in a crowd when I’m alone.
Right now I’m magma then I’m a stone.
I am just swimming when I drown.
Take me down.
Let me drown.
Pierce my soul.
End it all.
But once I’m gone
You’ll be missing me.
You can’t understand
And you still believe
But in the end we both know
It’s just the best for you
To follow me
To the land of dreams.

Light reflects in my eyes
Tinting skies blue and white.
When I cry it starts to rain.
Big grey clouds will start to drain.
Feeding streams with all the pain.
Salty tears are washed away.
They are the waves of raging seas
Crashing coasts and breaking trees.
A cold damp breeze is surrounding me.
My watered heart is killing me.
When I had stopped to cry
All clouds were passing by.
The wind’s no longer strong
And raging seas have calmed.
Light reflects in my eyes
Tinting skies so blue and white.
Seas so deep no light gets through.
Tinted in the deepest blue.

Unreachable goddess your beauty´s in your secrets.
You cast a spell over me.
The scent of red roses so soft and fresh and flawless.
Please unveil your blossom.
You leave me so speachless.
You keep me so sleepless.
Started as a seed and a sprout in a week.
Growing the first leaves and your smell is so sweet.
Let there be a perfect tree
On which all the birds may feed
And be saved by your giant leaves.
This will be the home for me.
Hold me tight.
Kiss me hard.
Let us never fall apart.
A great ocean of leaves just for you and me.
To lose ourselves.
To lose reality.
Let there be a perfect tree
On which all the birds may feed
And be saved by your giant leaves.
This will be the home for me.
