I throw myself around your neck

When the tears come up
When morale goes down
When we row in shame
When we smile at passers-by
When we look at what matters
When we kiss a lover
When we redo the calculations
When we run out of time
When one day we face
When we pass by
When we play at refining
When we bend in the wind
When we throw it all away
When the earth falls apart
I throw myself around your neck
It's my island to be together
 
When sometimes we overcome
When we breathe the moment
When the sea rises
When the moon comes down
When the evening arrives
When everything is black
When we live the ordinary
When we are alone on earth
When we look at the sky
When everything is eternal
When the day is over
When it's all over
When we throw it all away
When the earth falls apart
I throw myself around your neck
It's my island to be together
 
When we throw it all away
When the earth falls apart
Over there
 
I throw myself around your neck
It's my island to be together
(Over there)
 
When the tears come up
When morale goes down (goes down)
When we throw it all away
When the earth falls apart
I throw myself around your neck
It's my island to be together
 

Where's That Music Coming From?

Where's that music coming from?
From the earth, or the air?
It's stopped now, it must be played
For some local god of the island.
Where's that music coming from?
From the earth, or the air?
With its sweet melodies, I followed it here,
Calming their fury and soothing my own grief
It dragged me here, it dragged me here.
But now it's stopped.
 
With its sweet melodies,
I followed it here,
Where's that music coming from?
From the earth, or the air?
Calming their fury and soothing my own grief
With its sweet melodies, I followed it here,
It dragged me here, it dragged me here.
Calming their fury and soothing my own grief
But now it's stopped.
 

In front of full bowls

He was the Earth's poorest knight
He was worse off than bad
They spat at him and burned disgrace into his flesh
 
In front of full bowls I must die of hunger
By the hot oven, I freeze to death
Wherever I reach, nothing falls but shards
I'm in shit up to my teeth
I'm in shit up to my teeth
 
The last hair from my skull
Has made a blank silver moon
I barely have a fig leaf to wear
Everywhere I'm venerated1 and spat at
Everywhere I'm venerated and spat at
 
I'm up to my neck in bad luck
And I even sleep under an elder bush
Upon which not one star has ever shone
Everywhere I'm venerated and spat at
Everywhere I'm venerated and spat at

The Key to Power

I'm the master of light and shadow
and my white blinds every eye.
I'm a god,
and you are little rats
I have the power
which takes your breath away
 
I'm called Arktos, made of ice,
remember my name
Some devil would like to be
as bad as me
but nobody can be so evil
I am so mean.
Look at me!
 
I am as old as this world
and I've chosen white for my skin
the black in me is like the night
I have the key to power
 
My star role is the big seducer
I'm acting as a friend to you
this has always worked
you believe in me
and become the loser
Come, let us drink and celebrate your doom.
 
I'm called Arktos, made of ice,

Some devil would like to be

Look at me!
 
I am as old as this world
and I've chosen white for my skin
the black in me is like the night
I have the key to power
 
He is the Master, a true friend
who does not serve him, is his enemy
we are the figures in his chess game
He has the key to power!
 
You think I'm just a man made of snow
I warn you, don't come near me
with your fire you are ill prepared
Come on, try it, if you can.
Lets start!
 
I am as old as this world
and I've chosen white for my skin
the black in me is like the night
I have the key to power
 
He is the Master, a true friend
who does not serve him, is his enemy

He has the key to power!
To Power!
 

Merry-Go-Round of My Love

Merry-Go-Round of My Love, why do you keep turning?
Merry-Go-Round of My Love, why don't you stop?
I faced happiness today
 
Some day, you'll stand next to her and then you'll tell me:
'Please stay, because I feel I'm longing for you'
Somehow, it seems to be good for me, but I'll never know
What I myself am going to do then – and what are you going to do?
 
Merry-Go-Round of My Love, why do you keep turning?
Merry-Go-Round of My Love, why don't you stop?
Today, I faced happiness
 
A summer's day filled with flowery scent – did it only happen because
My heart used to believe in it at all?
A game of shadows in the evening light and a feeling of happines
That will stay around for us and benumb us
 
Merry-Go-Round of My Love, why do you keep turning?
Merry-Go-Round of My Love, why don't you stop?
 
Merry-Go-Round of My Love, why do you keep turning?
Merry-Go-Round of My Love, why don't you stop?
I faced happiness today
 

ICE to Düsseldorf

Death is looking through my window and laughing at me
I hope that he can wait a bit longer
You never really know exactly when and where
You've got to take him how he comes when he picks you up
 
I've still got one last wish to use:
A window seat in a train carriage
Send me in my coffin
With the I C E to Düsseldorf
 
I've reserved a place in the south graveyard
My first fixed residence, I'm really excited for it
Second row, a fine spot, with the most sunshine
A fixed roof over my head, it'll seldom rain in there
 
I've still got one last wish to use...
 
On my journey into the longest night I'll call to you one more time
'It was great and fun, but now I want my peace'
 
I've still got one last wish to use...
 
Travel one more time, wearing black, to Düsseldorf
 

Tell me that you love me still

Running till I lose my breath
Under the stars, we can barely see
The night hunts dilemmas
Tell me that you love me still
 
Love, the questions re-surface
Have you found yours
And if we replay all the scenes
Tell me that you love me still
 
The sun, flowers and blinds
The rains that become torrential
Can you smell what's on the wind
Tell me that you love me still
 
Do you hear the mechanic?
When do the end credits run?
And if we replay all the scenes?
Tell me that you love me still
 
And if we changed the themes?
Tell me that you love me still
And if we replay all the scenes?
Tell me that you love me still
 
Live is still fragile
And the traffic that it brings
And if we replay all the scenes
Tell me that you love me still
And if we changed the themes
Tell me that you love me still
