wake up
03:28
|
|||
|
if i will ever wake up again
i'm gonna take the chance and leave
if i will ever find someone to love again
i'm gonna make sure that he will be seeing me
cause i'm tired of trying a million years
i'm tired of dealing with your fears
we surely could have been together
we surely could have been
so don't tell me i'm still very special to you
the meaning of your words lost weight
our time is over illusions fade
whatever the dream was for us its too late

great disaster
04:15
|
|||
|
it was a great disaster
at the brink of insanity
in my dreams i kept pushing you away
and although it scared me
it felt good to be true
i felt strong cause i knew
that i could count on you
but you didn't find a way
to keep me safe
standing on my hands
was the only solution
losing all of you
was my only way out
even stones feel charming
facing the cold hearted manner
of my so-called family
what ties me to them
please tell me again
louder and louder
tell me what do we deserve
all of these constructs
that hold us together
louder and louder
tell me what do we deserve
all of these constructs they
look alike

that's all i thought
04:43
|
|||
|
deep blue sea is taking me away
but my thoughts they stay by your side in the night
when im alone with the moon
waves are telling me that i don't need
any ground fading away
no turnaround
salty waters heals my wounds
that's all i thought that's all you brought
when you told me to trust and i tried but it's just that i
knew what will come now you're gone
now you're gone
seeking out horizons still embraced by the wind
shaken by life and calm inside
the breezes
bring salty sand into my eyes
that's all i thought that's all you brought
when you told me to trust and i tried but it's just that i
knew what will come now you're gone
now you're gone

schon immer lauter
02:44
|
|||
|
du warst schon immer lauter im verschweigen
und deine worte schienen immer ohne trost
verbogen kannst du mich nicht so gut leiden
doch wenn ich gerade steh bin ich dir viel zu groß
oh ich könnt kotzen wenn ich sehe wie du dich windest
so bin ich halt – sagst du mit vollem mund
könnt dich umarmen wenn ich seh was für ein kind du bist
ich denk ich komm der sache langsam auf den grund
wo hast du nur dein selbstbewusstsein her
wir sind doch gleich und trotzdem weißt du's meistens besser
wenn wir uns küssen gehen wir rückwärts ohne helm
wenn wir uns meiden gibt es mehr als zwei verletzte
deine art dich rar zu machen ist von gestern
und mit worten umzugehen können alle lernen
ich hab gedacht ich brauch noch zeit dich zu vergessen
doch selbst im traum hast du dich weit von mir entfernt
ich halt nicht viel von deiner abgeklärten art
du findest mich zwar hübsch doch einfach zu behaart
also lass uns einfach aufhören zu suchen
wir könnten freunde sein und andere verfluchen

this moment felt like a strange man's arm
holding my life because i couldn’t i
wouldn’t even see the good things till u came along
opened the window expecting snow
but it wasn’t even cold i tell you
dark thoughts corrupted my mind
when you came along with a strong sense of
what i need when i bleed for too long
you drove through the desert and i closed my eyes
but i saw you see me smiling
you called the silence and i fell asleep
the unknown makes me nervous i am scared the more i own
saying goodbye to what i love leaving my hometown
dusty red sand gusts of wind and you are not around
and when i step ahead i find myself unbound
little girl on the rail didn’t know how to fail
looking straight into my eyes
falling loads further along
until i feel turned inside out
the colder your heart the more i realized
that i have been here
the unknown makes me nervous i am scared the more i own
saying goodbye to what i love leaving my hometown
dusty red sand gusts of wind and you are not around
and when i step ahead i find myself unbound

la vuelta
04:10
|
|||
|
soy la vuelta en tu camino
porque ese es mi rumbo
es una historia profunda
no quiero irme sin perderme
siempre que te odio es con todo mi amor
yo no soy alucinante
pero quiero toda la belleza
todo lo que merecía
yo no soy alucinante
pero quiero toda la belleza
todo lo que merecía
no voy a atender tus heridas
tengo suficiente con las mías
te sientes envuelto por mí
pero tu no dormirás adentro
la vida nunca fue lo que parecía
con el viento ya se evapora

longing
04:08
|

|
nothing has rhymed since some days
am i cheating just on my life again
drifting on these well known currents
little temptations remind me of some
some longings i forbid
longings i never had
just longings i have to admit
i hide from myself
but i feel them pull these tender strings of my heart
what holds all these strings together
so we dont fall apart
no we won't fall apart
how much ambivalence can you afford
how much can you let go while we still hold on
let me hold your head my love
let me count your thoughts
let me hold my breath again
to hear the chords of my heart
cause i feel them pull these tender strings of my heart
what holds all these strings together so we don't fall apart
no we won't fall apart
no we won't fall apart
while we still fall apart

context
05:25
|
|||
|
he sat at the table waiting for his coffee
it would take some time longer so he got a little edgy
he tried to stay calm but he was clearly upset
started screaming at the waitress things he’ll surely regret
we could condemn him for this but we cant be sure
that he wasn’t a tortured waiter before
i saw this young lady pass by a flower shop
she was hustling all day trying to find a new job
when she saw those indoor plants that stood in her way
she reached out with her foot and knocked over all bouquets
we could judge her for this but we can’t be sure
that she wasn’t a tortured flower before
once i went for a walk when he came 'round the corner
complimenting my ass i still tried to ignore him
when he came very close and i told him to leave
he said girl you don’t get it cause i know what you need
you can easily justify any offending
the context will prove there was no bad intention
as he came even closer i felt his hand on my neck
sneaky trash hidden heroes no chance to escape
so i lowered my eyes and remained with a smile
he was probably drunk and had no love as a child
if your past made you suffer don't put it all on yourself
you could just pass it on to somebody else

island
02:25
|
|||
|
tiptoeing on an ice cube
holding on to non-existent grounds
trapped inside a loop
cutting us with plastic hands on money that's not ours
there's nothing left on this island
and yet we sing along to the lullabies of safety
of safety
we should stop wasting our time
speak our mind
stop discussing what is yours and what is mine
and if we fight we can still turn the tide
we're not the victims of our time
mountains full of waste
let's meditate the pain away
eyes closed hands bound mouth tight
if we deny it we don't need to fight it
there's nothing left on this island
and yet we sing along to the lullabies of safety
of safety
we should stop wasting our time
speak our mind
stop discussing what is yours and what is mine
and if we fight we can still turn the tide
we're not the victims of our time

you keep moving on without a destination
giant steps that won’t take you anywhere
you impress me with big words
but you don’t put 'em into action
all songs you were supposed to play
those helpful words you’re gonna say
your ideals you never realized
and so you quit asking why
you’re just too heavy to fly
now all the walls have fallen
and I am like an open book
your absence gave us doubts
but your silence makes me loud
all books you said you wanted to read
every success you were supposed to achieve
your ideals you never realized
and so you quit asking why
you’re just too heavy to fly
now all the walls have fallen
and I am like an open book
your absence gave us doubts
but your silence makes me loud

words & definitions
04:16
|

why should i write a song 'bout you
what could it tell the world
what picture could it be so untrue
that no one feels disturbed
i couldn't love you couldn't see
if no one tried to get the key
society made us enemies
i couldn't love you couldn't see
if no one tried to get the key
we found it out together
so now you ask me what i think and
and i pretend to dance
while you were growing i used to shrink
we clearly lost our chance
we couldn't love we couldn't see
if no one tried to get the key
society made us enemies
i couldn't love you couldn't see
if no one tried to get the key
we found it out together
back then we made us feel so safe
creating words and definitions
while we were building walls and cages
we slowly made it superficial

...FROLLEIN SMILLA ist vorlaut, liebevoll,
poetisch politisch bis dark zynisch,
