it’s sunday and i’ve lost myself
i think these weekend vibes are slowly killing me
i wish it was monday, i wish i had a clear mind and a job that i liked
just a regular monday
it’s saturday for weeks on end, i can not even stand
i’m just lying in bed.
i wish it was monday, i wish i had a clear mind and a job that i liked
just a regular monday

a day or 5

her voice rings through the sky
another year goes by
the winter rain reminds me of my lonely nights
it’s just a day or 5
it’s easy to survive,
get me back to life
get me back to life
in the eye of a hurricane, pretty scared that we hit the walls.
in the eye of a hurricane, i think it’s too quiet for us all.
her voice makes melodies
they remind of last year
maybe i’m not alone, maybe i’m not alone
in the eye of a hurricane, pretty scared that we hit the walls.
in the eye of a hurricane, i think it’s too quiet for us all.
her voice rings through the sky
another year goes by

today, I’m gonna dream the day away
I’m gonna leave my mind for a while
today, I’m gonna figure out which dreams and which I throw away
‘cause my time is running out, do I need a place to go
and leave my old ways far behind me and let my heart melt like the snow
of this shitty year
tonight, I’m gonna dream for the last time in life
I’m gonna make it real
tonight, I won’t forget the things I’ve said and maybe that’s
for the best
‘cause my time is running out, do I need a place to go
and leave my old ways far behind me and let my heart melt like the snow
of this shitty year
what a shitty year

my lips starting to crack
I feel the dessert sand when i wake up in the middle of the night
the sun is coming in, another night gets ruined
I hear the grinder of my coffee machine
the things you do, the things you leave behind
I wanna get away, give me another dream
‘cause i’m flying straight into the sun
the things you do, the things you leave behind
the things you do, the things you leave behind
the things you do, the things you leave behind

don't listen to the rain

don’t listen to the rain
it will beat you up and drain you again and again
the rain
keeps banging on my brain
the rain
again
and all the plans we had today are getting washed away
lalala
lalala
lalalalalalala
the rain, the rain, the rain, the rain

hamburg to hell
03:00
|

|
my brain is asleep, still got my hands on the wheel
the coldhearted highway as grey as the sky
the bright side of life lays miles behind
back to my normal, back to my normal
life.
after making some new friends,
i’ve let the city in again
i tried to be a better man
oh it’s a long way down,
from hamburg to hell
my brain is asleep and my toes are frozen
i’m back in my head and the road takes over
the bright side of life lays so far away
back to my normal back to my lonely days
after making some new friends,
i’ve let the city in again
i tried to be a better man
oh it’s a long way down,
from hamburg to hell

old friend

looking away is the hardest part,
looking away is the hardest part.
when i just wanna see you one last time
i wanna taste the stars that you’ve left behind
looking away is the hardest part,
looking away is the hardest part.
that’s why i keep seeing you all the time
and try to reach the stars that you’ve left behind
I’ve got an old friend
and he’s the one i find
when my days get rough
he makes up my mind
and he’s taking me in
when i wanna step out
and he’s making me spin
i don’t wanna turn around
going back is the easy way
going back is the easy way
just do the thing that i’ve done before.
and leave all the visions i’ve been fighting for
I’ve got an old friend
and he’s the one i find
when my days get rough
he makes up my mind
and he’s taking me in
when i wanna step out
and he’s making me spin
i don’t wanna turn around
yeah he’s taking me in
when i wanna step out
and he’s making me sing
i don’t wanna be loud

when my thoughts are drifting i think of john
he’s that kind of person everybody gets along with
and john rides solo, john can drive a truck
he’ve seen a lot of places he never stopped
john is older, than i will ever be
but inside he’s that young boy that’s lost in me
sometimes he’s my neighbour and sometimes he’s gone for years
and when he falls back on his piano he’s singing new songs that i’ve already heard
when my thoughts are drifting
I think of john
he’s that kind of person
who maybe I’ll become
