Lyrics "NEUANFANG":
Das Ufer ist gerade so zu sehen
Erste schwere Wellen die sich legen
Es ist hell aber das Wetter wechselt täglich
Erst Tauwetter und am nächsten wieder Regen
Du lehnst dich auf lehnst dich dagegen nichts bewegt sich
Und alle Nächte dauern ewig
Die letzten Steine sind zu schwer um sie zu heben
Und sie bauen kleine Türme wie die Stäbe eines Käfigs
Und du willst mit keinem drüber reden
Denn nicht einen den du kennst geht es ähnlich
Also geht man einfach weiter seiner Wege
Aber Wege nach der Flut sind im Sand nicht mehr zu sehen
Und der Zweifel zieht heimlich wie Haifische Kreise
Bis dich die Strömung erfasst und zum Hafen mitreißt
Und du schwimmst einfach weiter
Bis du Luft atmest und deine Lunge wieder frei ist

Die dunkelsten Wolken sind still und verblassen
Hinter dir nur Wasser doch vor dir liegt alles
Stürme und Regen sind kaum noch zu sehen
Staub bis zu den Knien aber Hauptsache stehen
Bis alles was taub war sich regt
Und der Wind nur noch leise die Bäume bewegt
Und du mittendrin
Staub bis zu den Knien aber Hauptsache stehen
Hauptsache atmen
Hauptsache das festhalten was noch da ist
Und dann damit von Tag zu Tag balancieren
Denn das was du hast kannst du nie mehr verlieren

Du tauchst auf es hört auf sich zu drehen
Vom Wind nur noch Rauschen vernehmen
Vergangene Tage verschwinden im Sand
Nichts in der Hand doch die Lunge gefüllt bis zum Rand
Und du kannst wieder aufschauen
Wieder einatmen und wieder aufbauen
Jede Kette zerbricht jeder Schritt wirbelt Staub auf
Geht das Licht aus
Fachen wir die Feuer an

Und jedes Leuchten ist ein Neuanfang

Die dunkelsten Wolken sind still und verblassen
Hinter dir nur Wasser doch vor dir liegt alles
Stürme und Regen sind kaum noch zu sehen
Staub bis zu den Knien aber Hauptsache stehen
Bis alles was taub war sich regt
Und der Wind nur noch leise die Bäume bewegt
Und du mittendrin
Staub bis zu den Knien aber Hauptsache stehen
Hauptsache atmen
Hauptsache das festhalten was noch da ist
Und dann damit von Tag zu Tag balancieren
Das was du hast kannst du nie mehr verlieren
Also halte das fest
Behalte das hier und bau damit auf
Denn so lange du stehst kannst du rennen
Und wenn du rennst kannst du nie aufhören zu brennen

Das Ufer ist gerade so zu sehen
Letzte graue Wolken die sich legen
Es ist hell und die Sonne scheint schon ewig
In den Armen wieder Kraft und in der Lunge wieder Leben
Das Wasser still nur das Schweben der Blätter zu hören
Und wenn du nichts siehst weil du wieder mal tauchst
Dann folg deiner Luft und schwimm wieder hinauf

lyrics: 'roter BMW (frontal)':
alles was zählt
raus aus dem weg
roter BMW frontal
eiserner sarg
dies und das
mir wird jetzt einiges klar

ich hab‘ dich gesucht
zum leben zu cool
BM doppeltes U
der sterbende schwan
‚gefahr‘ wie in ‚gefahr‘en
BMW frontal

und es knallt metall auf metall
es war kein unfall
roter BMW frontal
mein eiserner sarg
dies und das
sag‘ allen wer ich war

denn hier wird es enden
es soll sieben tage lang regnen
und wie wir uns winden
wird mir einiges klar

du hast mich gesucht
zum leben zu cool
BM doppeltes U
ein sterbendes paar
‚gefahr‘ wie in ‚gefahr‘en
BMW frontal

hinweis:
den eigenen tod geträumt, den gedankenstrom der folgte in einem rutsch niedergeschrieben. so entstand der text zu 'roter BMW (frontal)'. mit dem fertig vertonten song entfalten sich unaufhörlich weitere facetten…beziehungsthemen.
wie das leben einem bestimmten kette-mitglied jüngst so spielte macht jetzt nochmal ein ganz neues feld auf. eines das wir nicht unkommentiert lassen wollen.
hier ein persönlicher blickwinkel zum song von michael:
beim ersten hören mag 'roter BMW (frontal)' wie eine erzählung über eine zerstörerische beziehung wirken. doch für mich entfaltet sich darin auch ein anderes bild - eins, das sich mir vor kurzem eingebrannt hat nach einem realen autounfall, der mehr war als ein moment aus knallendem metall auf metall. der song öffnet eine tür zu einem abgrund, der sich oft hinter einem funktionierenden alltag versteckt – dort, wo erschöpfung nicht mehrdurch ruhe heilt und das bloße weiterleben zur anstrengung wird, die innerlich aushöhlt.
diese fahrt, von der gesungen wird, fühlt sich für mich an wie eine schwarze pest: lautlos, plötzlich, überwältigend. in seiner kryptischen sprache spiegelt der song für mich auch suizidale gedanken wider - nicht direkt, aber scharf genug, dass sie wieder anklopfen.
wer mit themen wie psychischer krankheit, depression oder suizidgedanken kämpft, sollte sich bewusst sein: das dazugehörige video und der song können trigger auslösen, die sich leise und plötzlich aus vertrauten szenen entfalten und tiefer schneiden können, als es zuerst erscheint.

TIDES! ft. COLLETTI - Unprepared (official video)

LYRICS "UNPREPARED":
Here’s to the man with the tie
He spins the ferris wheel on the funfair
If anyone can spare a smile
it’s their cabin that will stop mid-air
And every time
Every time I try, I fail
You are just plain and honest
And so prepared to leave this all behind

Here is to the girl that I saw
She was drawing on the boulevard
Her art so inappropriate
But all the lines are wonderful
And every time
Every time I try, I fail
You are just plain and honest
And so prepared to leave this shit behind

Once in a while I recognise a delightful sense of humor
But this will never compensate for belly aches and tumors

Here is to the boy with the smirk
In a photo from the drawer
A memory so genuine
The facade’s about to blow up
Once in a while I recognise a delightful sense of humor
But this will never compensate for belly aches and tumors
And every time
Every time I try, I fail
You are just plain and honest
And so prepared to leave this shit behind

Some time I might be able to
Make a good thing last Not fall apart
Some time it might be easier
When heavy metal beats the heavy heart
And my time is running faster here in linger city
Where I lost count of the days
That I spent in self-pity
Unprepared

Lyrics: "SINKING SHIPS"

I’M BORN TO LOSE, A BLOWN OUT FUZE
YOU KNOW ME WELL, I GIVE YOU HELL
HARD AS A STONE, WITH BROKEN BONES
A WORN OUT HAT, THE WALKING DEAD

JUST RUN AWAY, FROM SINKING SHIPS
THE RATS ARE OFF, WE’RE LOSING THIS
ON WALKING OUT, AND BREAKING BAD
THE WOLVES ARE HERE, LET’S MAKE THIS LAST

WITHERED WOOD, UP TO NO GOOD
A BURNING FLAME, BUT OH TOO TAME
THE LAST IN LINE, RAN OUT OF TIME
A SIN MYSELF, REFUSING HELP

JUST RUN AWAY, FROM SINKING SHIPS
THE RATS ARE OFF, WE’RE LOSING THIS
ON WALKING OUT, AND BREAKING BAD
THE WOLVES ARE HERE, LET’S MAKE THIS LAST

KNOCKED OUT IN THE FINAL ROUND, LISTEN! THE ALARM IS SOUND
AND WE DON’T KNOW HOW WE GOT THIS FAR

CAUSE‘ GOOD TIMES GONE FAST
HAVING DONE THIS FOR TOO LONG, ALL WORN OUT BUT GOING STRONG
LOTS OF THINGS, WE’RE NOT SO PROUD, WE WON’T QUIT, WE STAY AROUND
SO THANKFUL THAT WE GOT THIS FAR
JOIN US, LET’S TEAR THINGS APART
HAVE MERCY, TIME IS RUNNING OUT FOR US DEAR FRIENDS
ALL THE MEMORIES WE MADE ALONG
AND EVERYTHING WE SHARED IS DONE
SOMETHINGS WRONG, LET’S PACK OUR BAGS
CAUSE‘ GOOD TIMES GONE FAST

lyrics "echt silber"

genügend freundematerial
für ein leben im park
hand in hand wir gehen alle zusammen

sie erinnern mich an mich
halbes lächeln im gesicht
ohne rast, ohne furcht in die flammen

es ist leicht
eigentlich
hinter der list
solang du nicht
viel vermisst
die wahrheit ist

ich kann euch längst nicht mehr leiden
aber ich sag nichts
das ist und bleibt mein geheimnis
nicht so wichtig

dieser teufel geht nicht weg
er hat sich bloß versteckt
in den flammen, in den flammen, in den flammen

und ich werd wie immer sein
wie rund ist dieser kreis
hand in hand wir gehen alle zusammen

ihr könnt mich längst nicht mehr leiden
aber ihr sagt nichts
und das ist euer geheimnis
nicht so wichtig

es geht nicht weg
es geht weiter
die wahrheit ist
echtes silber

Lyrics "Wonderland":
This ship is sinking, you know it well
All my troubles from which i break out
It’s better to burn out than to stay awake
What i hold out, it not what i can take
And it’s gonna mute the whole of my surroundings
It’s gonna take the rest of left behind
My heart is bleeding out, got a sick and tired body
My eyes are half closed and aching bones
Another day, another matress. Im a foreign stranger soul
In the need of a little silence, there’s no city i was born
No depth in my words, i can hardly speak
I’m swallowing black coffee, sorry i just cant eat
My heart is bleeding out, got a sick and tired body
My eyes are half closed and aching bones

Lyrics "WAR":
As I was born, I felt homesick
like I stood in different worlds
on the floor, catching bruises
but there is no wound
This part-time war is breaking my stability
voices of a dying breed which bleeds within society
I always had this pressure not to fade away
I always tried my best but I never tried enough
My issues are nothing that eyes can see at the first glance
when others raise their fists up high,
I cross my fingers behind my back

if this song was a drink
oh it would fuckin kill
pour me another shot
for it is my last will
it's funny you should ask,
it's not gonna spare your life
it is out here to get us
and it can't be bribed

coz still we are:
collecting piss stains
like fuckin trading cards
digging your own grave
is a forgotten art

that ain't no fuckin smile
more like a psychotic grin
here's to hoping that you won't ever sleep again

Lyrics SPORT:
I’ve been in the strangest state of mind again
Just like last time
A short drive of shame to the gas station,
where I used to buy our drinks
Like a TV show from the 80s
We’ll play this every sunday morning
Packing you in the back is something
I really hate

It’s not fair to wake me from my sleep
To take you to the beach
We’re not going anywhere, anywhere
It’s not fair that only in my dream
I turn to the back seat
To see you smile
I’m getting sick
of these disgusting tricks

Feels like a knife stuck through my tongue
when I pull into the parking lot
If I had a ride as shiny as yours
Would it be enough, would it fix some holes?
Your arms crossed and the eyes so narrow
That's the energy of past love
Playing your favorite record
I really hate

It’s not fair to wake me from my sleep
To take you to the beach
We’re not going anywhere, anywhere
It’s not fair that only in my dream
I turn to the back seat
To see you smile
I’m getting sick
of these disgusting drinks
It’s not fair to link it all
To the drug I can’t let go
It’s more than this even sober
I am just too scared to live

Lyrics:
dear pain, this song I dedicate
to you and our common time
in all those years you've been my friend
indeed, the closest one of all

I would rely on you in all my darkest nights
you've been there by my side
I put my dreams into your cold but tender hands
so you won't let me go

but I, but I, but I
I am slipping through my fingers

your hugs got tighter with the years
so tight it's hard for me to breathe
how can you be my shelter when
your grasp leaves bruises on my skin

I have to say goodbye to you though I'm afraid
there is no other choice
I got so used to you that now I do not know
who am I without you

but I, but I, but I
I am slipping through my fingers

Lyrics:
i can not take this anymore
i try but i can't ignore
that sometimes less isn't more
i hear you knocking on my door

you show up uninvited
i didn't want you to come
no i don't wanna be reminded of what we've become

i always bite off more than i could ever chew
i hate what i'm going going through
turn off the lights when you leave
and lock up the door
i can't keep coming back to you

it's like you got away with murder
and you play the victim in this game
you know that i pretend
yeah you know that i act
as if everything's alright
as if i will sleep tonight

you show up uninvited
i didn't want you to come
no i don't wanna be reminded
of what ive become

i always bite off more than i could ever chew
i hate what i'm going going through
turn off the lights when you leave
and lock up the door
i can't keep coming back to you

i used to think i'm not enough
i used to think so much
and i choked
and spit you out
yeah i choked
but i spit you out

When you stare into blank nothingness and life passes you by?
There must be so much more than just waking up and going to bed,
Pointless hours in between and a night to regret.

And tell me what a shame is this,
That you’ve never gone too far, never crossed a thing off any list?
Yeah, if all you do is just exist:
Stare right back into the grey and wave away the mist.

If in cities with harbours people have hope
I'll build you one and I'll build you a boat.
Then it's good to know that we can always leave,
That somewhere's air we'd still like to breathe.

That's easier said than done.
I know what it’s like when all of the shadows are one.
If all else fails just drop me a line.
I might not know the way but I’ll buy you some time.
Why don't we open up our eyes before glory fades?
Let's steady those hands that just shake.

If in cities with harbours people have hope
I'll build you one and I'll build you a boat.
Then it's good to know that we can always leave,
That somewhere's air we'd still like to breathe.

Do you know that feeling when your throat runs dry?
When you stare into blank nothingness and life passes you by?
There must be so much more than just waking up and going to bed.

Lyrics DETOURS:
Counted 89 sheep in my head,
and still I lay awake.
Turned 52 times in my bed,
in the night I turned 28.
Yeah.

Wrote 53 Words in a letter,
that I never sent to you.
Got 86 Euros out of a slot machine,
and I spent em' all on booze.

We raise our glasses,
to all these wasted days.
To all the treasures,
we found along the way.

Wrote 53 Songs on a coaster,
that the DJ didnt play.
Met 48 people when I was drunk,
and forgot em the other day.
Yeah.

Raise your glasses,
to all these wasted days.
to all these forlorn treasures,
we found along the way.
We Raise our glasses,
to all these dead end streets,
broken promises and
broken dreams.

A toast to best friends,
who lost track.
To all the good times,
that wont come back.

To all the songs,
that wont get old.
To all the stories,
that have been told.

Lyrics "GOLDEN BOY":
HAVE YOU EVER FELT THIS WAY BEFORE | THINGS DONE, WRAPPED UP,
CONFUSED AND BORED | HAVE YOU EVER ASKED YOURSELF IF THIS IS
WRONG OR RIGHT OR SOMETHING ELSE | DID YOU EVER TAKE THE WRONG
DIRECTION | MISSED A CLUE, FAR AWAY FROM PERFECTION | A HOLE IN
YOUR HEAD RELEASING PRESSURE | BE THE ULTIMATE TREASURE!
YOU COULD BE ANYTHING AT ALL | THE GOLDEN BOY TEARS DOWN THESE
WALLS | SHINING THROUGH THE CLOUDS UNTIL THE SHADOWS FALL
EVER THOUGHT THAT THINGS WENT WRONG | UNFINISHED TASKS AND
THINGS UNDONE | HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TREATED BADLY? | NO ONE SAW
YOUR POTENTIAL, SADLY | BUT YOU KNOW WHAT LIES INSIDE YOU | ALL
THE STORIES ABOUT YOU ARE TRUE | YOU WALKED THROUGH THE FIRE
AND FLAMES | THEY USED TO CALL YOU NAMES
YOU COULD BE ANYTHING AT ALL | THE GOLDEN BOY TEARS DOWN THESE
WALLS | SHINING THROUGH THE CLOUDS UNTIL THE SHADOWS FALL
HAVE YOU EVER FELT MISUNDERSTOOD | DON’T YOU WORRY ALL WILL BE
GOOD | YOU WILL SEE A LIGHT THAT SHINES | HEADS UP! IT’S YOUR BEAUTIFUL
MIND | WHEN YOUR STORY COMES TO A CLOSE, YEAH | IT’S ALL ABOUT
THE THOUGHTS THAT YOU SHARED | NOW LIVE THE LIFE YOU ALWAYS
PLANNED | BAD DAYS ARE FOREVER BANNED
YOU COULD BE ANYTHING AT ALL | THE GOLDEN BOY TEARS DOWN THESE
WALLS | SHINING THROUGH THE CLOUDS UNTIL THE SHADOWS FALL

SHADY BARS AND TAINTED SIGHTS | STILL THE BEST TIME OF OUR LIFES | WE ARE BACK AND NEVER DONE | THE FOUR OF US STILL GOING STRONG | LET’S LOAD THE VAN AND TOUR THE STATES | WE PLAY OUR SONGS AND RIP THIS PLACE | AND OUR DREAM IS STILL ALIVE | WHEN JOEY CAPE SINGS CHILD INSIDE
SO MANY FELLAS LOST AND GONE | WE’RE FIGHTING THROUGH, WE CARRY ON | STILL THE SAME, RIGHT FROM THE START | WE’RE YOUNG AT HEART | SO MANY FRIENDS WERE LEFT BEHIND | WE’RE MOVING ON, DON’T HIT REWIND | AFTER ALL JUST FELL APART | WE’RE YOUNG AT HEART
WE’RE HERE, WE’RE BUILT TO STAY | FOREVER AND FOR ANOTHER DAY |
UNTIL THE COLORS FADE | WHEN WE TURN OLD AND GREY
SO MANY FELLAS LOST AND GONE | WE’RE FIGHTING THROUGH, WE CARRY ON | STILL THE SAME, RIGHT FROM THE START | WE’RE YOUNG AT HEART | SO MANY FRIENDS WERE LEFT BEHIND | WE’RE MOVING ON, DON’T HIT REWIND | AFTER ALL JUST FELL APART | WE’RE YOUNG AT HEART

Lyrics:
I‘m keeping words behind my lips
I‘m keeping bottles under my bed
Can‘t sleep because you cut off my eyelids
You wanted different hips between your legs
We’re running in circles, step by step
All along it‘s been ourselves we couldn’t stand
And if I disappeared I bet that you’d be glad
Cause you stopped caring yeah we both know that
This is all my fault and I’m the only one to blame
I always kinda knew that it would end up this way
And I swear by god that I can’t go another day
You want me to leave, that‘s cool cause I don’t wanna stay
Seems like we both can not with or without
We’re just too scared to say the words out loud
It’s not enough, I’m sorry, I’m better off without
I won’t forget you, but now I need to go
You’re running in circles step by step
Should be moving forward but I’m stuck instead
Can’t untie the knots, kill what‘s inside of my head
Because you stopped caring and we both know that so
Take a closer look at
What you made me do
I don‘t need anyone
And I don‘t need you
You‘re so shallow, I can see right through
I hope you‘re proud, ‘cause I can‘t forget you
This is all my fault yeah I’m the only one to blame
I never thought that I would ever end up this way
And I swear you wont hear from me again
And I hope you're proud because now I can not feel a thing

Lyrics "Closer"

With your touch you blend gold
right into all I know
I felt safe In the cold
Melt the snow on my toes

I hold you closer than my own skin
I hold you closer

In my palms
You have read
This will be just our time
Now the sun is breaking through
All those things clouding my mind

The heels of my vans grew holes
Like the truth that we try to tell
And I just ran as fast as I can
To tell you how I feel

And I will hold you closer
And I will hold you close

I hold you closer than my own skin
I hold you closer

Quote by Konni/I SHIVER:
"The title track of this EP is a love song. It’s about following and finding what feels right and trying to hold it as close as possible. It’s also about giving up a negative piece of your self in order to let another person into your heart."

Lyrics "Retry":
The stereo plays British doubts,
There's a strange taste in my mouth.
A weird Monday evening,
Blast it out loud.
Inner monologues, eloquent and on point.
You know, I've learned how to disappoint.
Still got some hopes to deceive,
Some errors to perceive
And some refusals to receive.

Because the days aren't the problem.
It's falling asleep and waking up.
Like waking up and making people see:
You're not the guy they thought you'd be.

I'm not complaining.
I've learned I'm special, I'm unique
Like anybody else that I usually meet.
Light up your résumé, you can have mine,
People duplicate them each and every time.

Because the days aren't the problem.
It's falling asleep and waking up.
Like waking up and making yourself see:
You're not the guy you thought you'd be.
Have you ever watched a great plan crumble?
This ain't a dance, I just stumble.

If I said I wasn't afraid I would have told a lie,
But that's okay since I've told plenty.

"Home Now" - Lyrics:
I’ve lost touch
With time and myself
Where’s my head
And where is your hand

Highlighting my mistakes
Well I know I’m wrong
And all of the things I hate
Your favourite songs

Well
I just want
To feel home now
I just want

`Cause I’ve lost your touch
I’m falling short
In the sense of time we spent
I felt incapable

I thought we were
more than a rush
Now I see your face and know
The cold is part of us

Now I see your face and know
The cold is part of us

I keep lying to myself

`Cause I just want
To feel home now
I just want

About "Home Now"/Quotes by Konni (I Shiver):
‚Home Now‘ is the third single from my upcoming EP ‚Closer'. It deals with losing touch and closeness to a person that was once a huge part of my life and also questions this deep connection. It’s about realizing that those things are gone and the attempt to find new balance after that.

Lyrics "Campbell Island":
some trees once collapsed in my chest
I'm glad I can call you a friend
most leaves will fall and rot away
like those memories made gone astray

Some patches of blue among these desolate skies
we'll have a beer and some words of bad advice
Like: "it's not your fault!" or "never mind, we won't make it out of here alive!"

Not sure if I'm afraid of getting old
or maybe just of dying alone
Either way I'll pick you up for a walk
but you'll never get to know my thoughts

So would you please hear me out,
cause it's quiet hard what I'm trying to say
I really have my doubts
guess this will never go away

And I'm kind of sorry to say,
Yeah I´m almost sorry to say that:

I'm saving all my problems for last
I'm saving all my problems for last
I'm saving all my problems for last
I'm saving all my problems for last

Some trees once collapsed in my chest
never thought I'd lose so many friends
no matter what, I'll still wish you the best
but I'll never leave this fuckin' island again

Lyrics "Unlearn To Swim":
The smell of a blown out candle’s smoke
And the warmth of the quiet between us
It’s clear now that I have to go
But you know my chest is a keeper

I belong here
I know only a few can say it and mean it

Down down down
How could I unlearn to swim
Felt so home
Drowning ‘cause I let you in

The smell of drying coffee grounds
And the sound of you just leaving
It’s clear now what this was to you
a quick fix I could not believe in

You fooled my heart into believing you
I knew from the start this pressure I can’t endure

Down down down
How could I unlearn to swim
Felt so home
Drowning ‘cause I let you in

I’m drowning ‘cause I let you in

Lyrics "Ghetto Chicken":
I've never been so high
At least I'm not alone tonight
All these strangers couldn't care less that I'm around
And it goes round and round and round
And I forget what's up and down
And I can't make up my mind
How to survive by getting by
I'm lost and loaded
I am not fine
Take me as I am
Hate me, I still stand
And I don't feel like I don't belong here
It's messed up as it should be
And it goes round and round and round
And I forget what's up and down
And I can't make up my mind
How to survive by getting by
I'm lost and loaded
I am not fine
No way! Falling down!
It's worse than hitting the ground
Can't tell if it's my head or eyes – you all vanish into thin air

Lyrics "Too many miles "

The sky is so dark tonight
I need you here
My arms feel so cold tonight
Help me steer
My thoughts blowing down the streets
they’re faster than my mind
My lungs they resist to breath
And I can’t sleep

And all I see now
Is you dear
And all I need now
Is you here
Too many miles apart from each other
I‘d rather start driving right now
Cause all I need now Is you here

Oh
(And I know better than this)

Too many miles apart from each other
I‘d rather start driving right now
Cause all I need now Is you here

Too many miles apart from each other
I‘d rather start driving right now
Cause all I need now Is you here
----
Quote (Konni/I SHIVER):
"This is the first single off my EP „Closer“ called „Too Many Miles“. I wrote these lyrics during a sleepless night on tour with my band and later on made this song out of it. It's basically about missing a loved one so much that it takes away your sleep in need of that calming hand on your chest to make you feel safe and sound."

Lyrics:
We had plans you need to discuss them now
well I had plans: drowning in my self doubts
getting some drinks ready and watch a movie
or maybe just star wars
even though I’ve seen this stuff a hundred times
and - oh god I know how Windu dies…
I call myself patient
but I know that I’m just wasting our time
I guess I fuck it up
can we just hold on for a while?
I need to feel alive
yeah I know, I’m a mess but i will change
someday.
I can see your smile shine so brightly
my love, my life - just let me dive-in
but first I’ll need to get numb and
see my own facade getting fragile
from my lips to god’s ears: tonight
I try to keep my mind alive
you always call me selfish
and from a certain point of view you are right
well, I fucked it up!
can we just hold on for a while?
I need to feel alive
yeah I know, I’m a mess but i will change
someday.
can we just hold on now
I want to feel alive
and when the liquors gone
and all the drugs wore off
I can finally feel alive…
for a while.

CITIZEN TIM - Pandemic (official live session)

Midsummer Records 2021-05-27 | "Als wir damals das Musikvideo zu PANDEMIC gedreht haben, hat der Oliver Jungmann - der das Video produziert hat - sein eigenes Esszimmer ziemlich auf den Kopf gestellt. Da waren überall Strahler, Scheinwerfer und sogar ne Nebelmaschine am Start. Als wir so vor dieser Kirmes-Szenerie standen, dachten wir, dass der Aufwand für die paar Szenen ja fast schon zu schade wäre, weshalb wir kurzerhand noch eine kleine live Session zu dem Song gefilmt hatten.

Das Musikvideo zu PANDEMIC wurde genau heute vor einem Jahr (27. Mai 2020) veröffentlicht. Und eigentlich hofften wir, dass wir ein Jahr später schon mit einem müden Lächeln auf diese Zeit zurückblicken. So kann man sich irren. Aber: brighter days ahead“

Lyrics PANDEMIC
it came with no surprise to the point of great remorse
and the anchor man’s afraid, as he’s reading the announcement in the morning
I lock my door and count to ten, while the birds are singing in the trees
my emotional range becomes closer, we saw it coming
my legs are feeling tired, I’m running circles in my room
I keep on counting the days here in quarantine
I miss my friends, I miss my friends
I watch the sunset over ghost town, the air I breath tastes pretty old
I watch my neighbor through the window, his dog seems pretty bored
and in the treasury department the blood is dripping from the ceiling
I’m running short of confidence, I’m running short of hope
my legs are feeling tired, I’m running circles in my room
I keep on counting the days here in quarantine
I miss my friends, I miss my friends
and it came with no surprise to the point of great collapse

Lyrics "Are You Okay?":
She said: „Hey, are you okay?
Cause you look really downhearted today.“
And: „Really, do I?“
Was all that I could reply.
Because the truth is:
I really got used to this.
And the truth is:
I'd love to show my bruises.

He said: „Son, what's wrong?
Cause I haven't seen you smile for so long.“
And: „Hey, it's all okay.“
Was all that I knew to say.
Because the truth is:
I don’t know how to do this.
And the truth is:
I am completely clueless.

Believe me, it's okay to lose your mind from time to time.
You can always meet me at our place beyond the warning sign.

I think: Oh, I really know.
It's not my day since a while ago.
And most of us are so blind
We can't see what's on each other's mind.
And the truth is:
I have to get used to it
And I have to admit
I'm so damn close to a screaming fit.

Believe me, it's okay to lose your mind from time to time.
Let's embrace all mistakes and drag them across the finish line.
Believe me, it's okay to lose your mind from time to time.
You can always meet me at our place beyond the warning sign.

When you’ve pushed too far again,
When you've done all the best you can,
When it's all just a little too much
And you’ve lost your grip and lost touch,
When you run out of any good idea
Just be sure that I'm already here.
I’ll show you a place that’s easy to find.
Believe me, it’s okay to lose your mind.

Believe me, it's okay to lose your mind from time to time.
Let's embrace all mistakes and drag them across the finish line.
Believe me, it's okay to lose your mind from time to time.
You can always meet me at our place beyond the warning sign.

Lyrics:
We’re so fucked, it’s only Tuesday
Feels more like goddamn doomsday
But we’ve pledged allegiance to the hounds of hell
So you think we’re done?
No! We’ve only just begun!
So I will sharpen my teeth
A personal meet&bleed
To tear the fuckin' scene
Hell Yeah! Hell Yeah! Hell Yeah!
We’re dancing on the knives edge
Collecting bullets with our heads
Yeah! We’re the hounds that will bring on doomsday!
Do me a favour and forget how to breathe
You better run, you better be on your heels
Got me a lighter and some gasoline
‘Ccause friend you’ve taken it a little too far
Let me help you get in the trunk of my car
Gonna drive away, I don’t care where just far... away.
We’re dancing on the knives edge
Collecting bullets with our heads
Yeah! We´re the hounds that will bring on doomsday!

When we were recording "Okay" we had a camera with us and tried to capture the madness of making a record. This is "Becoming Okay" - a short DIY documentary about some autumn days at Rad Room in Iserlohn. Thanks a lot to Basto and Luke for making the album happen and everyone else involved in this project!

Lyrics "Retry":
The stereo plays British doubts,
There's a strange taste in my mouth.
A weird Monday evening,
Blast it out loud.
Inner monologues, eloquent and on point.
You know, I've learned how to disappoint.
Still got some hopes to deceive,
Some errors to perceive
And some refusals to receive.

Because the days aren't the problem.
It's falling asleep and waking up.
Like waking up and making people see:
You're not the guy they thought you'd be.

I'm not complaining.
I've learned I'm special, I'm unique
Like anybody else that I usually meet.
Light up your résumé, you can have mine,
People duplicate them each and every time.

Because the days aren't the problem.
It's falling asleep and waking up.
Like waking up and making yourself see:
You're not the guy you thought you'd be.
Have you ever watched a great plan crumble?
This ain't a dance, I just stumble.

If I said I wasn't afraid I would have told a lie,
But that's okay since I've told plenty.

Lyrics "Hideout":
We waited far too long this time, inside your room, my secret safe.
Your mother came to pick you up, late at night, so far away.
Next day, when we met at school, you turned around and shut me out.
We never talked about your home, your dad, your mom, your secret hell.
But when I waited outside of what was your home and once you said where I
could stay as long as I wanted, we touched and stayed alone.
You screamed and cried and ran away from this dark room and from your home,
they searched and looked and cared for you, but I knew that your dad was quiet.
But when I waited outside of what was your home and once you said where I
could stay as long as I wanted. And touch. And stay alone.

Set a way around
Keep the hideout I found
Everything’s okay
We’re alone now, to this day

Lyrics "Indoors"
Oh once again we’ll spend our days indoors
Lost my hope for the miracle so this time we’ll be forced
And stuck with habits
That we’re so eager to let go

Oh normality is hard to find
Time keeps on slipping
Only the sane will survive

I keep my social distance
Won’t refuse to obey rules
When evil comes to wreck us all

I will be safe within these walls
It’s just two calm slugs and
I can stand this on my own

Oh normality is hard to find
Time keeps on slipping
Only the sane will survive

Oh normality is hard to find
Always easy to pretend but too weak to complain
I’m just wasting my time
When every day is pale and quiet
Time keeps on slipping
Only the sane will survive
Oh time keeps on slipping
Only the sane will survive

Lyrics "A Skeleton Walks Into A Bar"

We're the motherfuckin’ skeletons
Swinging from bar to bar like pendulums
Like a bag of rats on heroin
We won't go home ‘til the early morning.

Church! Burn!

Sticks and Stones
Won't break your bones
We'll mount your heads
On the highest poles
Cut of your limbs
Like the devils horns
Bleed out! Bleed out!
Bowels out
We’ll need a noose
Battered, burned
And fuckin’ bruised
Leave you here
lying on the ground
Bleed out! Bleed out!

Church! Burn!

The taste on blood on our lips
The fear in your eyes when we chime in
Tearing your flesh from the bone
Hungry like some gutter dogs.
