Zeilen aus den mir liebsten Liedern

The kid
inside your head
keeps asking:

Why the world
has the nerve
to keep turning

And how the suns
got the balls
to keep burning

And why the moon
has the goal
to keep staring

And why your heart
cannot
stop caring

Stop
caring

Stop
caring

Stop!

Künstlerin: Tracy Bonham
Lied: And the world has the nerve to keep turning
Album: Blink The Brightest
Jahr: 2005/2006

We're lying flat on our backs
Picking our favorite stars

We try shining back
From this roof of ours

But after a while
You say
I it seems pretty far

I think you forgot
How bright you are

Künstlerin: Tracy Bonham
Lied: Shine
Album: Blink The Brightest
Jahr: 2005/2006

Does anyone really know the secret?

Or the combination
for this life

And where to keep it?

It's kinda sad
when you don't know
the meaning.

But everything
happens for a reason!

I don't even know
what I should say

Cause I'm an idiot
- a loser -
microphone abuser

I analyze
every second
I exist

Beating up my mind
Every second
With my fist

And everybody wanna run
Everybody wanna hide from the gun

You can take that ride
through this life

- If you want -

But you can't
take the edge
off the knife

- No, sir! -

And now
you want your money back

But you're denied
'cause
your brain's fried
from the sack

And there ain't nothing I can do
'cause

Life Is A Lesson
You Learn It
When You're Through

I know why you wanna hate me
I know why you wanna hate me
I know why you wanna hate me

'cause

Hate
Is All
The World
Has Even Seen
Lately

Mr. Play-It-Safe
Was afraid to fly

He packed his suitcase
And kissed his kids goodbye

He waited his whole damn life
To take that flight

And as the plane crashed down
He thought
Well isn't this nice

And isn't it ironic
Don't you think?

Künstler: Alanis Morissette, Glen Ballard
Lied: Ironic
Album: Jagged Little Pill
Jahr: 1996

when you worry
your face
will frown

and that

will bring everybody down

so don't worry
be happy

Album: Simple Pleasures
Jahr: 1988

did you think
that your feet
had been bound

by
what gravity
brings to the ground?

did you feel
you were tricked
by the future you picked?

- well come on down -

all these rules
don't apply
when you're high
in the sky

so come on down

[...]

did you think
you'd escaped
from routine

by changing
the script
and the scene?

despite all you made of it
you're always afraid
of the change

Künstler: Peter Gabriel
Lied: Down To Earth
Album: Wall-E Soundtrack

Lieber Feind in der Ferne
Der du selbst keinen Krieg willst
Der du nur deine Pflicht tust
zur Erhaltung des Schreckens

Bitte hör deinen Feind an!

Wenn sie dir heute sagen
Der da will dir ans Leben
Will dein Haus niederbrennen
Deinen Garten vergiften
Deine Heimat vernichten

Glaub ihnen nicht
glaub ihnen nicht
glaub ihnen nicht
um Himmels Willen!

Künstler: Gerhard Schöne
Lied: Lieber Feind in der Ferne
Album: Du hast es nur noch nicht probiert
Jahr: 1987/1988

Freude schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium!

Wir betreten feuertrunken
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum

Deine Zauber binden wieder
was die Mode streng geteilt

Alle Menschen werden Brüder
wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.

[...]

Wem der große Wurf gelungen
eines Freundes Freund zu sein

Wer ein holdes Weib errungen
mische seinen Jubel ein!

Ja, wer auch nur eine Seele
sein nennt
auf dem Erdenrund!

Und wer's nie gekonnt
der stehle weinend sich
aus diesem Bund!

Künstler: Friedrich Schiller
Ode: An die Freude
Jahr: 1785

Take my life

Time has been twisting the knife

I don't recognise
People I care for

Take my dreams

Childish and weak
at the seams

Please don't analyse
Please just be there for me

The things that I know
Nobody told me

The seeds that are sow
They still control me

There's a liar in my head
There's a thief upon my bed

And
The Strangest Thing

is

I cannot seem to get
my eyes
open

Künstler: George Michael
Lied: The Strangest Thing
Album: Older
Jahr: 1996

We've walked together
down this winding road

In search
of something true

Together we grew

But now
our journey
has come to an end

And it's on
to something new

For me and you

So, goodbye, my friend
until we meet again
some other day

I know
so much will change

But looking back
I can say
I wouldn't change a day

I hope you can say
the same

Künstler: Hoobastank
Lied: Say the Same
Album: Every Man for Himself

Nightingale
sing us a song

of a love
that once belonged

tell me your tale

was your journey far too long

does it seem
like I'm looking
for an answer

to a question
I can't ask

?

Could you be
the most beautiful girl
in the world?

Could you be?

It's plain to see
you're the reason
that God made a girl

Album: The Gold Experience
Jahr: 1993/1994

I walk ahead alone

you tell me
not to go so fast

but I am slower
than you think
I am as careful
as your touch

and when you want me to relax
I am as serious
as your looks

and when you want me to believe
- whohw! -

I sneak around the corner
with a blueprint of my lover
with a blueprint of my life
I would better run for cover

I walk ahead alone
you tell me never ever leave me
but I am already gone
I am further than the wall

you have built around your future
yes, I am higher than the tower

I'm in a suicidal mood
- whohw! -

here is a blueprint of your past
here is a blueprint of your destiny
that's all there is of you
and that's all there is of me

Künstler: Rainbirds
Lied: Blueprint
Album: Rainbirds
Jahr: 1987
