connected overused (2006) I feel connected to you this word is today overused I have no soul but you something is running through my hands something I can't understand if you want to go through you are welcome too reach a point of no return reach a feeling so absurd and the end is always near and the end is always here always been this way why the hell I'll say that I feel afraid just now no, I don't care If I'm dead or living No, I don't care If I'm dead or living anymore as long as I can look at you see that you love me and this love is true that's all that I care all that I wonder and worry about the look in your eye and the feeling that you love yeah you love me
2.
love concept alpha (2000) hey we get along so well hey we had no time to deceive or to complain we better stay outisde of the rain we better keep looking at the water falling and the water is falling now yeah the water falling and now all I can do is remember you and you still look pretty nice to me in my thoughts in my wandering moments your black hair, white skin in the night and all the useless meanings we find... it was so useful at the time when we used to look at the water falling as we say: “you are the meaning of my life”

time to go 02:31
time to go (1994) when I take my time to find you cos' I know it's time to go my heart is full my feeling find you falling down falling to my days, my darling you cannot realize your meaning to my life my life is you, my life is blind but not a lie as I always have been so tired, tired, tired... when I take my time to find you cos' I know it's time to go if my hate turns around you please don't take it bad cos' the world is sad and I'm feeling very bad today the firs time will be until the end of times the lonely sign of burning skies forgotten lies the first time
4.
we are alone 04:00
we are alone (1994/2008) loud sound in my head anything now can make me mad in the days you're not around all I hear is this crazy sound there are times wich way you turn all invention and despair since you don't have enough time to learn what you should and what you shouldn't care all the people try to tell you what you should have done and what you shouldn't there also times when all things that hurt will leave you temporarily just for a while just for a time
5.
short memory (this life I dislike) (2007) there's something I fear more than to die is how can we feel by the end of the night I wrote it this song just forgot it to write down on paper the words to remind me this is a second version the first one is lost like our love forever we'll stay at the same point we start we never move and we are always too far from happiness, glory and calmness think you don't understand me at all when you say I'm sad I am pretty satisfied with the little things I have of course there are many things in this life I dislike and so are you and so we all
6.
addictions 03:04
addictions (2005) once I was a child I didn't have addictions I didn't kill myself the way I do everyday just taking something to make the pain away once I was a child I didn't have addictions I didnt't kill myself the way I do everyday taking all these things that space my time and let everything flies away I don't feel guilty but I feel so tired of taking all this stuff for such a long time I'm waking tired and I'm sleeping dying I wish I could be so far away but I can't the time is passing no, I can't live other way sometimes I wish my life was a little less complex but at the end I just don't understand why the things happen this way or that way I wish I couldn't care I don't feel I feel so feel so sick of myself at the same time getting sick and tired of getting sick and tired in itself
7.
the bore 04:03
the bore (2000) it will be the same we'll never understand the way we loved each other long ago it will be the same again needless to say that after all we still are friends you can believe me endlessly it will be the same again falling into decay the endless summer rain will rain I'll stay at home at night today it will be the same again it will be the same it will be the same it will be the same again
8.
when you smile (2006) when you smile and you say that i could have made it other way I look at you I smile back I try to make you feel better I kind of hurts look at you feeling bad because of me that's what you say so it must be true
9.
older 03:38
older (1997) I feel like I am not the same I'm getting old I'm not the same but I am not so sure I cannot even blame myself... let me hold your hand to feel the same again let me hold your hand and we'll get close again and we'll be friends again I'll meet you in the end
10.
pothead 02:54
pothead (2006) somehow I've made it this far maybe it's not even far enough but it took me so long to make all these songs I just can't get enough of this feeling somehow I've made it this far maybe it's not even far enough but it took me so long to get rid of this song that you listen now I do not feel like I was real like I was really made of gold like I was here trying to learn my life trying to make all right I just can't given up so easily of doing for a time what I really want to die for of doing for a time what I really want to die for what I really want to die for and nothing more and nothing more I do not have the time to say goodbye I only try and show what I cannot hide
11.
look at the dogs playing (2007) I was living with a girl she was younger than me we were feeling very close like we wanted to be we were everything at first and so much more then we'd start to fight a lot and we were nothing more we decided we gotta move to a bigger house with a view and with trees and space for the dogs looked like this way things will get much better we were wrong it didn't work well, it doesn't matter I was living with a girl she was younger than me I was deeply in love she was a dream to me remember our first night in the house we would live in such a big house only with the dogs we were everyhting at first and so much more then the everything at first became so bore we decided again: “we must take different ways” not to be mean to each other not to hurt each other more I was living with a girl she was younger than me we were feeling very close like we wanted to be I was living with a girl she was younger than me I was deeply in love she was a dream to me I was living with a girl she was younger than me it was nice and we were happy for a small time remember our first night in the house we would live in such a big house only with the dogs look at the dogs playing
