The Stranger 03:41
I was pouring out everything Everything that was in my heart Cries of anger, cries of joy Wasn’t even shure wether I was alive I was living like a dead man, living like a dead man For me to feel less alone Open myself to the gentle indifference of the world Nobody has the right to cry over her I open myself to the gentle indifference of the world Nobody had the right to cry over her I was pouring out everything Everything that was in my heart Lived my life one way Could just aswell have lived it another

Snow is falling in April And the world stands still Snow is falling in April And the world stands still Someday there will be light In these loving arms, far away Passed away, flowers still unseen Snow is falling in April Snow is falling in April And the world stands still Someday there will be light In these loving arms, far away Passed away, flowers still unseen

All is gone so long The days are melting away But my heart still beats the same My shadow next to me hand in hand through this mighty land but you took off like fuckin’ triple seven It’s always the same Always the same game Always the same Always the same game Riding through the street Bus takes me to you But you’re well gone too Searching for something new It’s always the same Always the same game Always the same Always the same game

Fall Apart 02:50
You make me fall apart I feel so tired longing for my completing part You wear my glowing heart Everything you are is everything I want My heart beats for you You’re never gonna feel it I sit in front of a broken mirror Never thought this would make things clearer True Love Hurts I’m waiting for nothing at all Drowning in loneliness Feed me with helplessness My heart beats for you You’re never gonna feel it I sit in front of a broken mirror Never thought this would make things clearer

zeitlebens 04:16
There's deepest winter in my heart I'm waiting for everything to fall apart See the birth of a rising swan Experience a brightly shining dawn Do you recall drinking down the sorrows How long will I miss you? How long will I miss you? How long will I miss you? How long will I miss you? Do you recall? There's deepest winter in my heart How long will I miss you? How long will I miss you? How long will I miss you? How long will I miss you?

Line for line voices followed in simple harmony The hymn ended in a melancholy murmur Didn’t believe it either We both had to hear it On the dying notes of jubilee
