Wormwood Window
(Kraemer/Hahn-Justice)
Walking through the wormwood window
Thinking that you´ll have to go
On your way to some place
With eyes as cold as blow
On your way to fill your backpack
with goodies from some store
And for the fraction of a moment
Waiting for some more
For a second we just hung there
In the greatness so pristine
Witnesses for nothing
Pretending it was all a dream

Wohin Du gehst
(Kraemer/Hahn-Justice)
Das sind so harte Zeiten,
Es gibt so wenig Mut,
und alle meine Stunden
sind gefüllt mit schwerer Glut.
In ihrer Mitte wilde Schatten
Sie kriechen ängstlich leise her,
Wie tiefe Opium-Träume
Ruhen sie auf der Seele Meer
Wer hat den Speer erhoben
Zum Schutz für dieses Herz?
Und was in seinem Wesen,
Macht es zu diesem Schmerz?
Aus ihm sticht eine tiefe Flamme
Und frisst den schweren Traum.
Sie zieht mich an das Land zurück
Mit deiner Hand in diesen Raum
Mir glühen die Augen und die Stirn,
Der Puls des Lebens schlägt,
Erwacht sind alle meine Sinne,
und die Sucht verweht.

Waters that go
(Kraemer/Hahn-Justice)
Last night I dreamt of Maria
She said that this battle
We could never win
That there´s a right wing
And there´s a left wing
And a frozen white bird
Aith a ring
My dogs are gone hunting
For the wind in the trees
The horses are thirsty
But there´s salt in the sea
Waters that go
They wanna come back
Waters that go
They wanna come back
Last night I dreamt of my father
He said that this battle
We would ever win
That we are created by love
And hated by love
Now where do I end
and where does my father begin?
My dogs are gone hunting
For the wind in the trees
The horses are thirsty
But there´s salt in the sea
Waters that go
They wanna come back
Waters that come
They wanna go back
My dogs are gone hunting
For the wind in the trees
The horses are thirsty
But there is salt in the sea
Waters that go
They wanna come back
Waters that come
They wanna go back

Wie ein warmes dunkles Tier
(Kraemer/Hahn-Justice)
Die Kraft der Liebe sie ist flüchtig
Sie ist weich und hart zugleich
Wie das Licht in einem Auge
in das der letzte Zauber reicht
Wie ein warmes dunkles Tier
Soll mein Herz nur für sie schlagen
Und was sich über ihre Unschuld streut
Zerstöre ich mit einem Streich
Darum trockne meine Tränen
dann kann ich dich endlich sehn
Wenn uns zur Gewalt die Kraft nicht reicht
Dann müssen wir mit Liebe es bestehen
Wie ein warmes dunkles Tier
Soll mein Herz nur für Dich schlagen
Und was sich über Deine Unschuld streut
Zerstöre ich ganz unbereut
Darum trockne deine Tränen
dann kannst du es endlich sehn
Wenn uns zur Gewalt die Kraft nicht reicht
Dann müssen wir mit Liebe es bestehen

White Horse Blues
(Kraemer/Hahn-Justice)
Don’t hurt yourself
There´s nothing to do
All that arises
Has no importance to you
White horse blues
Will carry you through
There´s nothing to worry
And nothing to lose
White horse blues
All things that spring up
They will fall back again
Down into nothing
While I cling to your mane
White horse blues
Relax your clenched fist
There´s nothing to do here
Cause nothing exits
White horse blues
White horse blues
Just let this ride happen
Let me cover your pain
Stop searching for a reason
You´ll end up just the same
Don’t hurt yourself
There´s nothing to do
All that arises
Has no importance to you
White horse blues
Will carry you through
There´s nothing to worry
And nothing to lose

The Rain
(Kraemer/Hahn-Justice)
I saw your face in the cloud today
Sitting half a world away
And the rain is here to stay
Take me away
to a place
Where I can be
with you
Listening to a song that made us play
Everything is reeling since a day
And the rain is here to stay
Take me away
to a world
Where I can sway
with you
I watched your smile in the window pane
In the middle of the falling rain
And it quietly spelled my name
Take me away
to a world
Where I can pray
with you
There´ s an ocean under the bridge today
To the church where we used to pray
And the Rain is here to stay
Let me close my eyes
Just for today
Take me away

Sad Song
(Kraemer/Hahn-Justice)
If nobody wants you
On this tiny speck of stone
Spinning on in endless nightfall
Always on your own
Oh, this is such a sad song
This is such a sad song
And it´s only just begun
Just maybe with time
The pain will move away
Or become like you again
Never again without you
Not even in your dream
Oh, this is such a sad song
This is such a sad song
And I sing it just for you
Attempt to drown your memories
In time you will be gone
And vanish in the blue again
This is such sad song
Because I really miss you
This is such a sad song
And I sang it just for you
And I sang it just for you

Voodoo Town
(Kraemer/Hahn-Justice)
I am leaving this town
With no monkey on my back
Moving to Gorkana
Goodbye to the black
Will be rolling in the ocean
To wash away the dirt
Brought my sheet and pillow
They can double as a skirt
I can hear the sirens call
under the oceans crawl
And like a river
in the deep blue sea
Finally I am free
A huge red glowing ball
in the skies above I see
A 100 million miles from here
and it takes care of you and me
Just like two tiny frogs
swimming in the sea
Too far gone to turn around
Clean and homeward bound
You can hear the sirens call
Under the oceans crawl
And like a river
In the deep blue sea
Finally we are free

You knew that it was coming
you've tasted the grief of moving away
in tiny sips over the years
on your train still in the station of Bombay
Dreaming you were standing on a hilltop.
Surrounded by the clear brilliant air.
Looking at the valley down below you
and pretending you were ever there
Station of Bombay (You knew)
(Kraemer/Hahn-Justice)
You´ve used every mode of persuasion
To stay alive as best as you knew
You've screamed at your friends on top of your lungs
And in multiple dimensions at once
For free! For good! For the truth!
You've cried, you've begged and seduced
For saving the earth
or at least your ship still rotting in a dock in fort worth
But now it's becoming too obvious
That your voice it really exists
You came in with a self given talent
And it´s no longer yours
and you are so fucking pissed
For the ride that you have chosen
the distance is too far
So you must grieve in earnest from now on
Say good bye one last time before your birth
