You & Me

This is the story
Of me driving through the streets
And of the people I meet.
I left the house to be all alone
Yet nowhere can I find my own

I see a woman and her two kids
Silently they are packing their things
I see a window in full light
Her husband’s lying dead inside

I see a couple hand in hand,
Their happiness seems not to end
Yet I can see her smiling face,
She has a secret that she never tells

A traffic light has stopped my way
A single guy passes me
He looks so sad, his face in tears,
I notice it is you, in me grow fears

I didn’t know where my home was
I didn’t know where my soul was

One day I’ll find myself alone with an empty bottle of wine in my room
The light will be dimmed, no-one can see, we have parted, you and me.

Wohin des Wegs?

Wohin des Wegs
frag ich, du sagst
Nach Nirgendwo
und überall hin

Bist du glücklich
frag ich, du sagst
Nach dem Untergang
jedes Mal ein Stück mehr

Liebst du dich
frag ich, du sagst
Keine Zeit jetzt,
ich muss weiter

Wirbelst herum
Bist auf und davon
Schenkst dein Lächeln
dem der es braucht

Gefroren im Innern
Weinst still für dich
Auf deinem Weg
nach Niemandsland
wo deine Suche
nach dir selbst
ein Ende findet

Scientific Progress goes Boink...

Es ist wieder soweit. So ein Tag, von dem man nichts erwartet ausser das Schlimmste. Und dann stolpert man quasi geradezu in ein Forschungsergebnis, das man weder erhofft, noch erwartet hatte. Schientific Progress goes Boink. Sekt her :)

DANTE'S PRAYER - Loreena McKennitt

Wundervoller Song zum Träumen und zum Reisen - und wenn es nur die Gedanken sind, die sich auf Reise begeben.


When the dark wood fell before me
And all the paths were overgrown
When the priests of pride say there is no other way
I tilled the sorrows of stone

I did not believe because I could not see
Though you came to me in the night
When the dawn seemed forever lost
You showed me your love in the light of the stars

Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me

Then the mountain rose before me
By the deep well of desire
From the fountain of forgiveness
Beyond the ice and fire

Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me

Though we share this humble path, alone
How fragile is the heart
Oh give these clay feet wings to fly
To touch the face of the stars

Breathe life into this feeble heart
Lift this mortal veil of fear
Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears
We'll rise above these earthly cares

Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me
Please remember me
