I would plant some seeds In all the places I go I would spread some smiles With my own two hands I wish in my palms To see diamonds being given But they would change into bugs Not the lightning ones, but soul eaters The trees of them are too rigid They seem frozen forever They climb up to the sky, it reminds me Babel I would plant some seeds But every place is made of tar I would spread some smiles Even if they stay unseen At night they blush the sky They wrap themselves in their own sheets We smothered stars from above And created ours below The trees of them are too rigid They seem frozen forever They climb up to the sky, it reminds me Babel The trees of them are too rigid They seem frozen forever They climb up to the sky

Could the water remember If we doubt about what we share ? Could the sea tell us tales About castles that have been moved somewhere ? Could the shore note The departure Of sand that slips away in our shoes ? What's going on When it's raining in the ocean ? Could the shore Notice the fleet Of sand that slips away in our shoes ? What's going on When it rains in the ocean ?

I saw a whole empire bursting at night Going up to smoke And then blown away by a giant guy And then I saw the growing habits Replacing the dreams Of a shall-not-speak fifty years old man He's now hiding every night And he does ask for all the maps In every explorer shop he finds Which suits to wear For his mind and body to come along Anywhere He feels comfortable Yet the daylight seems like warm foam Ready to eat his night Youth may be a room, made to warm up our heads While the forgetful cold of a winter makeshift shed Wanders through the cracks Of the old vapoured oak I saw it burning in the dark In the dark Of newborn factories Sitting here like bookends Our past still glows As an old fashioned torch Coughing glimmers Under the reeks and smokes And Future starts now Behind the steamed-up window Of the house that's not anymore a home And Future, it starts now And the Water, does it remember ? I saw a whole empire sitting on its own Standing always here Until the waves they turn it into foam Thumb up in the lying sea Hitching a ride What does the water remember If it's all been washed away ? What does the water remember If it's all been washed away ? What stories could tell the sea About castles living for a day ? Could the sea tell us tales ? What does the water remember ? Which traces will remain ?

Ask me a question Ask me and I'll step back And ask you two in return "Why?", you're wondering Ask me a question Cause I know a single sunny day Rarely turns into a whole summer At least I can listen And sponge it all once or twice And ask you if everything's alright Ask me a question Cause the warmth of a stray day Rarely turns into a whole summer I wish I could clink with loneliness As if it were a beer Sitting in your glass And then I could raise my hand And then having nothing to ask Could at last a single day Finally become a whole summer Though I know we're used to think Any pile of bricks can make a home I haven't seen the architect Just a worried workers team If ever I found Heimat In memory fields or summer hints Then maybe would a pile of bricks One day build a home for me

Hello new other day I tried to disguise Old inner words Twisting them into lines Every time the same speech For a hush I used to dress Maybe I did too much Decorated absence At the dinner of future years Could have very little conversation Can't discern a smile from a shell So-called poets from the Fausts Nor my heroes from the ghosts All the time Hello new other day I tried not to try Distant wishes Now are forgotten Just said a heap of words That made up the silence Yes, mine they holler out, So louder than me now At the dinner of future years Could have very little conversation Can't discern a smile from a shell So-called poets from the Fausts Nor my heroes from the ghosts All the time Good morning my old friend Maybe the last hello Is already passed And I didn't know But for the times they change What the clocks cannot gauge I bet my hopes with days I gamble my hopes That I can get over it Hello new other day I tried not to try To keep in touch To let you come first Just said a heap of words That made the silence up But mine they holler out So louder than me now
