01. WELCOME TO MY WORLD

My world...

My universe...

Welcome to my world.

Welcome to my universe.

Where I am at home.

Where anything...

...is well.

When I sit back,

I close my eyes. 

Then my flight begins.

I start to breathe. 

I want to survive.  

I try…

Then the curtain goes up.

The stage is clear. I’m alright.

Welcome to my trip.

Welcome to my flight. 

Welcome to my world.

Welcome to my universe.

Where I am at home.

Where anything is well.

I put on 

my headphones

and the dance begins.

The colours start to glow

after melting snow. 

Welcome to my world.

Welcome to my universe.

Where I am at home.

Where anything is well.

My world...

My universe...

Come on, 

(The) fear is gone.

Courage returns.

The confidence grows, 

I‘m strong, for so long.

For so long...

...as long as music plays 

until the last note dies away.

Till the sound is over,

until the silence wins.

Welcome to my world.

Welcome to my universe.

Where I am at home.

Where anything is...

Welcome to my world.

Welcome to my universe.

Where I am at home.

Where anything is well...

...until the silence wins.

02. NO MATTER

No matter

where you want to go,

don‘t forget your soul. 

No matter what you saw,

what you know:

life is going on.

Your passion, your strengths,

your personal world,

no matter

where you want to go.

Memories, (and) wishes,

your favourite song,

no matter

what you know. 

Don‘t forget your soul,

life is going on.

Don‘t forget your soul,

you are not alone.

You are not alone,

the show is going on.

I‘m sure you‘re not too young.

It’s time to come back home. 

To you… 

We make mistakes

to get better. 

We're looking for the way

to arrive. 

We just can know

when we try. 

Some say hello,

some say goodbye. 

You’re not a copy, not a clone.

You're breaking out!

It‘s a dangerous zone!

No matter…

No matter

where you want to go,

don‘t forget your soul. 

No matter what you saw,

what you know:

life is going on.

Your passion, your strengths,

your personal world,

no matter.

No matter.

Memories, (and) wishes,

your favorite song,

no matter.

No matter.

Don‘t forget your soul,

life is going on.

Don‘t forget your soul,

you are not alone.

You are not alone,

the show is going on.

I‘m sure you‘re not too young.

It’s time to come back home. 

To you… 

No matter.

Every day, 

a new attempt.

What‘s your choice,

beginning or end?

What‘s the decision?

It is time,

to change your life,

to change the mind. 

(We) have no control 

over the weather.

A little hope

makes the day…

...better. 

…much better. Better!

Much better!

...life is going on.

...you are not alone.

You are not alone,

the show is going on.

I‘m sure you‘re not too young.

It’s time to come back home. 

To you…

No matter.

03. THERE'S NO TIME FOR PAIN

I feel pain.

Sometimes a little sadness.

It feels like cold November rain,

some say it’s (a) kind of madness. 

A burning, burning hell.

Nothing to say, nothing to tell.

Whispering of the devil?

Or lies from holy haeven?

But now I look ahead.

Pretty good today. I‘m not sad anymore,

close the door. 

I‘m here to train my brain.

There‘s no time, no time for pain

Now I look ahead.

Sometimes good, sometimes bad.

I‘m here to train my brain.

There‘s no time for pain.

My medicine is rhythm.

My help is melody.

The music is my skill.

Forget the useless pill!

But now I look ahead.

Pretty good today, I‘m not sad anymore.

Close the door.

I‘m here to train my brain.

There‘s no time, no time for pain.

Now I look ahead.

Sometimes good, sometimes bad.

I‘m here to train my brain.

There‘s no time for pain.

04. TREASURES OF DREAMERS

What if there’s a place.

Based on our minds.

Filled with magical grace.

Where nothing reminds.

Where animals talk.

Magic creatures around.

Crossing cards that can walk.

Heart and soul completely bound.

What if there’s a place.

Based on our minds.

Filled with magical grace.

Where nothing reminds.

Shaped all from imagination.

Everything one’s creation.

Shaped all from imagination.

Everything one’s creation.

Somewhere you can be free.

A space just to be…

Where animals talk. 

Lost boys you can choose.

A world of madness to decide.

There’s nothing to refuse.

The chance to live out our pride.

Sailors and saviors to win the world.

With ships and fairy dust.

Geniuses and thieves keep it whirled.

Here you can fly with only trust.

Shaped all from imagination.

Everything one’s creation.

Shaped all from imagination.

Everything one’s creation.

Somewhere you can be free.

A space just to be…

Crazy beings like Cheshire and Hatter.

Pirates and queens live no goodbyes.

Can keep the madness matter.

Dancing underneath sparkling Skies.

Everything can make you lost.

Nothing there to hold you forever?

(But keep) together through all the dust.

We dreamers always keep treasures! 

What if there’s a place.

Based down on our minds.

Filled with magical grace.

Where nothing reminds.

Where animals (can) talk.

Magic creatures around.

Crossing cards that can walk.

Heart and souls completely bound.

Shaped all from imagination.

Everything one’s creation.

Shaped all from imagination.

Everything one’s creation.

Somewhere you can be free.

A space just to be…

05. THE SONG OF THE SEA

I can hear the ocean.

Screaming for me.

For all to keep the motion. 

The song of the sea.

The ocean till my end.

Reaching out.

Separated for  love by the gods.

Shrill and loud.

Forced to watch her from abroad.

No matter how hard I’d try. 

It’s not enough to reach her.

Don’t want my love to defy.

Don’t want my love to defy.

There’s this distance between us.

But my love is unconditionally.

When night begins,

our hands brush.

I can hear the ocean.

Screaming for me.

For all to keep the motion. 

The song of the sea.

Still there’s nothing for us to demand.

Bound to never touch, they bend. 

After all this time, they nothing learn.

After all this time, they nothing learn.

I can hear the ocean.

Screaming for me.

For all to keep the motion.

The song of the sea.

When night begins,

our hands brush.

Holding her in my arms 

stays a memory.

No matter how hard, choose to stay!

Sometimes our love wants their own lead.

No matter how hard I’d try.

It’s not enough to reach her.

Don’t want my love to defy.

I can hear the ocean.

Screaming for me.

For all to keep the motion. 

The song of the sea.

Holding her in my arms

stays a memory.

06. I WILL STAY STRONG

I gave you everything I had. 

I wanted to do

anything for you.

I was always there (for you).

And if not, 

then I'm sorry.

Then I’m so sorry!

But you - where have you been?

I warned you. 

But you did not accept my help.

My help.

You say he's changed.

But you didn't have to go

through the same thing I did.

So I hope he'll show you.

I hope you will see

his real face.

His real face.

I was always there (for you). 

And if not, 

then I'm sorry. 

Then I’m so sorry!

But you - where have you been?

And you - where have you been?

Don't come back to me crying

and say I was right.

Don't come back to me crying

and say I was right.

I will stay strong

you don't bring me down anymore.

Never again.

'Cause I am stronger,

stronger than you.

07. MY YOUTH IS ON FIRE

My youth ist on fire,

my youth is in flames.

Blazing lights,

what a dangerous game. 

The warmth attracts,

how can I resist.

I feel touched,

I want to exist.

So much to experience for me and you.

So much to gain, so much to loose.

Who can say, I don’t feel pain? 

Who remembers the ending of Kurt Cobain?

My youth ist burning, playing with fire.

Passion and joy, dangerous desire.

Intimacy and secrets are no pain,

worries can go and hope can remain.

Every heart has been broken,

when bad words were spoken.

Incurable, deep wounds arise,

through nasty, ugly, little lies.

I’m shure that I can change. 

The pain in my soul will rearrange. 

After these four weeks, I will come home.

From now on I’m no longer alone.

I’m shure that I can change

The pain in my soul will rerange. 

After these four weeks, I will come home.

From now on I’m no longer alone...

My youth ist in fire,

my youth is on flames.

Blazing lights,

what dangerous game.

The warmth attracts,

how can I resist.

I feel touched,

I want to exist. 

08. THE WOLF

The wolf. 

The wolf is coming.

The wolf is coming back

and wants to grab my neck. 

The wolf is coming!

Little Red Riding Hood.

The fairy tale of the bad wolf in bad mood.

The myth of the grandmother's murderer.

The fear of the dark for most children.

The story of the wolf in sheepskin.

All of this is to be forgotten!

It’s nothing.

The animal is running.

The animal is running slowly,

leaving footprints in the snow.

The animal is running.

Hold me. Hide me.

Help me. Protect me.

Miss me. Don’t kiss me.

Leave me. Forgive me.

The wolf is following my trail.

Is he hungry or just failed?

The memory comes first.

His reputation is his curse.

History repeats itself all the time.

Who can change that in our mind?

The wolf is coming.

The wolf is coming back in me.

The wolf is coming.

Hold me. Hide me.

Help me. Protect me.

Miss me. Don’t kiss me.

Leave me. Forgive me.

The wolf is following my trail.

Is he hungry or just failed?

In the darkness of the forest,

danger lurks behind every tree.

In the darkness of the forest

evil fantasy haunts me.

I actually love wolves.

Since I was a little child.

The soft fur,

the brightly shining eyes.

I try to hide, to hide my fear.

My fear, my fear, my fear!

My fear.

Wolf pack is my family.

In the dark, now I see.

The wolf is coming.

The wolf is coming back in me!

09. BURNING BRIDGES

Now I feel better.

It’s not the same.

Yesterday I was sadder.

Don't need no honor, don’t need no fame.

Get out of there, get out of here!

I don't want pity, I don't feel fear.

Leave me alone. I need time.

To be alone. It’s not a crime.

Constant pain, daily hell.

Stinging smoke, the fires smell.

I can hardly breathe, can’t open my eyes.

Why don’t you believe me? 

I don’t tell you lies!

Burning bridges always collapse.

Burning bridges, no going back.

Stinging smoke, can’t open my eyes.

Step by step. Surprise, surprise!

Burning bridges always collapse.

Burning bridges, no going back.

No going back. No going back.

I try to distract, to distract myself. 

I try to distract, to distract myself.

Get out of there, get out of here!

Burning bridges, I don’t need your tears.

Now I feel better.

It is good. It’s not the same.

Yesterday I was much sadder.

Don't need no honor, don’t need no fame.

Burning bridges always collapse.

Burning bridges, no going back.

Burning bridges always collapse.

Burning bridges, no going back.

Stinging smoke, can’t open my eyes.

Step by step. Surprise, surprise!

Burning bridges always collapse.

Burning bridges, no going back.

Burning bridges always collapse.

Burning bridges, no going back.

Burning bridges always collapse.

Burning bridges, no going back.

10. JUST FOR ME

I miss you.

I want you to be mine

but I also know,

that my love for you is wasted time.

It‘s too late,

you just gave your heart away.

But I‘m a dreamer, baby,

and I`ll never give up, anyway.

Now I think

of Romeo and Juliet

of their love

that can‘t exist, my eys are wet.

But one day

the sun will rise up just for me.

The fortune will be on my side

oh everyday.

To hope for a new

and better day,

keeps me alive

when times are grey.

My thoughts are

continuously with you.

So long ago,

when my heart began to beat for you.

But now I think

of Romeo and Juliet

of their love

that can‘t exist, my eyes are wet

But one day,

the sun will rise up just for me.

The fortune will be on my side

oh everyday.

But that day,

the sun will rise up just for me.

The fortune will be on my side

oh everyday.

11. GOOD KNIGHT, GOOD PIE

Mm...

What if there’s a place.

Based on our minds.

Filled with magical grace...

You don't believe it,

right?

When night begins...

...I feel pain...

You don't believe it?

To be honest, I don't really know.

You don't believe it?

After all this time...

(You don't believe it,) 

right?

They nothing learn...

...Don't forget your soul...

I like the people around me.

And of corse music!

What‘s the decision?

It is time,

to change the mind.

...together through all the dust...

Good night. Good strong knight.

...we dreamers always keep treasures!

Good bey. Sweet, sweet, very sweet pie!

...very sweet pie!

I don't want to be sad...

Universe, universe, universe, my universe.

My world...

My world...

...until the last note diese away.

Till the sound is over,

until the silence wins.

My youth is on fire.

My youth is in flames...

...until the silence wins.
