Reefer Madness

|
|
||

thoughts are spinning in circles
i just don’t know what to think
they call it reefer madness
they saw the joint in my hand
you think i’m going down
with the ship i’m sailing on
people searching through darkness
no one will ever reveal
a bunch of people were ‘round that night
doesn’t make sense what they tell
you think i’m going down
with the ship i’m sailing on
my head is up in the clouds
need my feet on the ground
i’m just walking on
come along with me

Fly
03:14
|
|

|
to avoid an explanation
i will simplify the math
i’ll add you to the equation
and divide the pie instead
with the other system passing
at the constant speed of light
and our time seems to be bending
which is why they don’t arrive
sometimes i’m walking
sometimes i crawl
sometimes i’m running
sometimes i fall
sometimes i fly above it all

Don't Talk
03:43

there was a time
when everything was new
another time anything could be true
thinking back
endless possibilities
some people don’t want to remember that
there are people who want you to forget
remember who you are
remember where you’re coming from
never forget what it’s like to be young
always remember
the time you were young
never forget no no always remember
never forget what it’s like to be
please just stop, we can’t be living like this
don’t grow up, you can’t be living like this
please don’t talk, i can’t be living like this

Some Version Of

i stand here and sing my song to you
you listen as you always do
we don‘t know what you‘re expecting here
you‘ll have to wait and have to hear
and there you feel outstanding stuff
but it‘s not done it‘s pretty rough
it is our way of making music
it‘s cool ‘cause we know how to do shit
we have to play louder
people scream and shout, yeah
now kevin let me say a word
yo phillip you won‘t be unheard
i thought it‘s time to plug me in
you tought it‘s time, you had to sing
i‘ll tell the people what‘s the deal
you‘ll make them dance and let them feel
and then the crowd is gonna snap
we‘ll take them to the final step
we have to play louder
people scream and shout, yeah
yo everybody listen up
who‘s walking by now has to stop
‘cause what you hear is pretty cool
who doesn‘t dance is just a fool
so please give all your love to me
otherwise i cannot be
and if you start to scream our names
our lives will never be the same
we have to play louder
people scream and shout, yeah

Fade
03:30
|
|
||
|
seeing you fade after all these years
letting you go without shedding tears
i’ll see you again somewhere down the road
i’ll always be there to share the load
to be fair, so much time has passed
and i knew it would never last
looking back things are different now
i want to forget but i don‘t how
this is where you belong
always here, never truly gone

Garden Of Dogs

the garden of the drunken dogs
lies beyond the blood-red sea
climb upon the deadly rocks
that’s the place where you shall find me
there i’m sitting all day long
roasting in the burning sun
drinking till there’s only one
dog left standing and the rest is done
we’re gonna bring him back to life, tonight
the saint will come and bring the light
seven days and seven nights
that’s how long the ritual takes
summoning the golden lights
waiting until the saint awakes
a caressing summer breeze
suddenly he’s standing next to me
can you believe it, can you see?
at last the saint is free
so we brought him back to life, tonight
and he came and brought the light
into my mind
you will see everything’s gonna be alright
hey what are you doing here?
among the dogs
never saw you coming
never thought you’d show
in the garden of dogs
come on, sit down
tell us what you are gonna do
in the garden of dogs

drivin’ down a road in arizona
the guy who's driving, i don't know him
consequences you have never seen before
pouring out of the melting floor
don’t know the guy on the backseat
noddin’ slowly with his head to the beat
rollin’ right into the morning sun
quietly thinking ‘bout
the things we have done
rollin’ right into the sun
morning light will make us high
was it real, am i dreaming?
blurry memories, quite revealing
i wonder if it is or is not true
voices trying to talk to you
trying to find our way back home
our destination still unknown
alone with the thoughts in my head
am i drivin’ or flying instead?

Dolphiness

some time ago
there was a boy and he was told
when you get old
the people ‘round you will unfold
what‘s in their hearts
what‘s in their brains and if it lasts
some will remain
of all the things that seem the same
too many options
are they different at all?
he made some wise decisions
made some money on the road
now maybe he thought
he would be so dolphy he could be
but in his head these voice
telling him repeatedly
some years pass, some years don’t
the boy decided
to ignore the lines that he just heard
a while it worked out well
to drown the voices out
when they came back much louder
finally he got what they said
so listen closely maybe you will understand
some years pass, without a memory
some years don’t, and make you happy
don’t get old

Hills Like White Elephants Germany
Hills Like White Elephants is a band from Coburg, Germany. Seven guys that have known each other since high school years - now spread all over Bavaria - are still drawn to their hometown to play, write and record in their smoke-filled practice room and home studio. Rock music is definitely the main theme, but various influences are coming together so that sometimes the rock share is minimal. ... more
