Poltergeist

Sonntag, November 23rd, 2008

Girl you just don’t know
what you are doing
or what you did to me.
Though maybe you just didn’t care.
Whichever – tell me what is worse.
Did you know
it took me ages to recover
from my last encounter with you?
It took me years or so it seems
to regain my self-esteem.
I can’t forget
and I can’t sleep
but as far as I can tell
I hold no grudge against you.
Far from that -
I’d still welcome you
here in my arms.
Though believe me one single thing
if you ever mess with my heart again.
I won’t rest until you’ve gone mad
I won’t sleep until you’re dead.
I will become what you are to me now
I’ll be your personal poltergeist.

This one is dedicated to the true love that got lost over time.

They say time can heal any wound
but let me tell you what i found:
What they say couldn’t be more wrong
my feelings for you are still strong.

Sometimes I catch myself in thought of you.

Though my mind tells me not to -
I think of all the good times that we had
and the one time it went bad.

I straighten up and cut the woe
and where only winks ago
joy was filling up my brains
a hollow space remains.

Emptiness is mocking me
showing me what could not be.
I ask myself why we broke apart
even when it ripped my heart.
This question accompanies me every day
but an answer remains far away.

If only I had known in time
that what we had was sublime.
But I was to blind to see
what you truly meant to me.

The last glimpse I caught of you
is a memory that makes me blue.
Did you know i watched you go
through the crackling shiny snow?
For me that moment time stood still
and let me tell you: I watched until
your bouncing head was gone for long
already knowing it was so wrong.

If I could alter history
I know what I would change for me.
Mend the cracks in our foundation
which led to our isolation.
I wish I could undo the fuss
that then separated us.

All that’s left of you in me
makes it difficult to see
that it had to happen just this way
to redeem the debts I have to pay.
Though the memory of you
still feels like it’s brand new.

I still see you every day
when somebody crosses my way
but you’re not there for my salvation
it’s just my mind’s imagination.

So I close my eyes for peace
to let my soul find some release.
Instead you’ve waited there for me -
with closed eyes it’s you I see.
Your face is burned into my head
it’s impossible to forget.

[And so I cry myself to sleep
knowing you are what I need.]

Never before
I loved somebody
the way I love you.
Unconditional true
and strong
is how I feel about you.
Still we parted
some time ago.
And now what we have
is not enough to depend on.
It’s a sad story
of its own,
told by the desire of my heart
So kiss me love
for the last time
and say goodbye.

Goodbye Heartbreak

Donnerstag, Februar 9th, 2006

Und ich gehe diesen Weg der mich zum Ende führt,
weiß nicht wo er entlang geht doch ich folge ihm blind.
Seltsamste Dinge begegnen mir, streifen mich doch bleiben zurück
Zurück auf diesem Weg
Jeder Funken Licht wird verschluckt und Dunkelheit umschließt mich,
mein Sonnenschein erreicht mich nicht,
und es wird keinen mehr geben wo sie fehlt.
Keine wärme in meinem Herzen
Es hat innerlich begonnen
Dieser lange Weg
Der Anfang vom Ende
Wo ist mein zu Hause?
Wo gehöre ich nur hin?
Lebe wohl mein gebrochenes Herz.
Wir werden uns lange nicht mehr sehen.
Du bleibst hier und ich gehe fort.
Suche nicht nach mir, denn ich brauche dich nicht.
