Herman van veen - "Wer hat den ernst in den Gesicht gebracht?"
Ich starre aus dem Fenster auf die Welt da draußen
Frage mich ob Mutter Erde überleben wird
Ich hoffe, dass die Menschheit irgendwann aufhören wird sie zu mißbrauchen, irgendwann...
Nach allem gibt es nur noch die zwei von uns
Und hier kämpfen wir immer noch für unser Leben
Der gesamten Geschichte zusehend, wie sie sich jedes Mal wiederholt
Ich bin nur ein Träumer
Ich träume mein Leben davon
Ich bin nur ein Träumer
Der von besseren Zeiten träumt
Ich sehe die Sonne untergehen, wie jeder von uns
Ich hoffe das die Dämmerung ein Zeichen bringt
Einen besseren Platz für solche, die nach uns kommen werden, dieses Mal
Ich bin nur ein Träumer
Ich träume mein Leben davon, heute
Ich bin nur ein Träumer
der von besseren Zeiten träumt
Du vertraust vielleicht mehr in Gott oder Jesus Christus
Es bedeutet mir nicht wirklich viel
Ohne gegenseitge Hilfe
Gibt es für uns keine Hoffnung
Ich lebe in einem Traum, einer Phantasie
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Wenn wir nur alle Klarheit finden könnten
Es wäre schön wenn wir gut leben könnten
Wann werden all der Ärger, Hass und Engstirnigkeit verschwunden sein
Ich bin nur ein Träumer
Ich träume mein Leben davon, heute
Ich bin nur ein Träumer
Der von besseren Zeiten träumt, oh yeah
Ich bin nur ein Träumer
Der Nach dem Weg sucht, heute
Ich bin nur ein Träumer
mein Leben davonträumend
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Ach ja, der alte Ozzy
Absalom
der Text hats in sich....
Good as Gold (Stupid as Mud) Songtext
Don't know what I'm doing here
I'll carry on regardless
Got enough money for one more beer
I'll carry on regardless
Good as gold, but stupid as mud
He'll carry on regardless
They'll bleed his heart 'til there's no more blood
But carry on regardless
Carry on with laugh
Carry on with cry
Carry on with brown under moonlit sky
I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs
Not in the star signs
Or the palm that she reads
I want my sun-drenched, wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss
Not in the next life
I want it in this
I want it in this
Got one note to last all week
I'll carry on regardless
The hill to happiness is far too steep
I'll carry on regardless
Dried his mouth in the Memphis sun
He carried on regardless
Tried to smile and he bit his tongue
But carry on regardless
Carry on with work
Carry on with love
Carry on with cheering
Anything above
I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs
Not in the star signs
Or the palm that she reads
I want my sun-drenched, wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss
Not in the next life
I'll have it in this
I'll have it in this
I don't want silver, I just want gold
Carry on regardless
Bronze is for the sick and the old
But carry on regardless
I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs
Not in the star signs
Or the palm that she reads
I want my sun-drenched, wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss
Not in the next life
I'll have it in this
I'll have it in this
the voice (with lyrics)
things i´ve seen
You won't believe the things I've seen
Far beyond your wildest dreams
I've seen chaos and order reign supreme
I've seen the beauty of the universe
so peaceful and serene
in seconds turn to violence and screams
I've seen true genius, too often to lose the meaningless
appreciation of this mediocre nation
I've heard the mind is repetition,
of empty words without tradition
Turned original verbs into submission
I smelled this malignerance addiction,
but I guess I wouldn't be right
if I said the blunt was like a baby pipe
There ain't gon' be no revolution tonight
Half of my warriors as high as a kite
Lost and they lost all they fight
And I've tasted, the bitter tragedy of lives wasted
And men who glimpsed the darkness inside, but never faced it
And it's a shame that most of y'all are followin sheep
Wallowin deeper than the darkness, you're fallin asleep
You won't believe the things I've seen
Far beyond your wildest dreams
I've seen chaos and order reign supreme
I've seen the beauty of the universe
so peaceful and serene
in seconds turn to violence and screams
I've seen and experienced things
that'll push the average to the edge and swan dive to death
I'm two guys, multiplied by ninety-three guys
Evenly balanced seein evil equally in each eye now
Maybe I'm the most thorough worker on the job to you
or maybe I'm the one, who was plottin to rob you
The fear of this beatdown, the women on no cash to floss
makes most of y'all hustle ya ass off
From nothin to two mill', in five years I'll live to see it
vanish in six months, with no tears believe it
I'll rock, twenty-eight years before the Feds can lay a trace
See they plan is to erase me, just to replace me
Life! Your heart is one with your brain
Emotional or reason, now which one do you obey?
Life! Somebody callin you insane
When overwhelmed and blessed, burst in tears of happiness
Yo, yo, I've seen relationships that's so sick
Life long friendships so cha-o-tic
Thug cat bangin this chick but won't kiss
Drinkin her spit, when coppin a fix for dope bliss
I got a knife and a bat, to bust your brain, put a knife in your back
"Once in the Life" I was trifle like that
like my man Troy, who lost his days
shootin dice on worldly ways
and ended up in a early grave
Because once in a lifetime is rough
Twice in a lifetime you combat the ghost of mistrust
Mentally cuffed, thrust by a cop thinkin he tough
You bust, Amadou Diallo is us, and what
now I'm on my knees, beggin' "God, please!
Save me from the fires of hell!
Let water water soul prevail" - cos I can't take no more
Who's that knockin, at, my door?
Is that you, Pete from Cobb's Creek, who died in my sleep?
We was playin for fun, now it's keeps
Like my man Mark I beat to death wrapped in a carpet
and left in the garbage, now that's cold-hearted
Ask Book he saw it, "Yo black I ain't seen (shit)
Kids in the 6, they flip for nonsense"
Poke an icepick, smokin that (shit) since preschool fool
and packin a tool, (fuck you) Mom Dukes it's cool
You won't believe the things I've seen
Far beyond your wildest dreams
I've seen chaos and order reign supreme
I've seen the beauty of the universe
so peaceful and serene
in seconds turn to violence and screams
Life! Your heart is one with your brain
Emotional or reason, now which one do you obey?
Life! Somebody callin you insane
When overwhelmed and blessed, burst in tears of happiness
Herbert Grönemeyer hat dieser Lied geschrieben, als bei seiner Frau der Krebs diagnostiziert wurde und seiner eigenen Aussage nach, fällt es ihm viel schwerer dieses Lied zu singen als "Der Weg", denn es beschreibt eine Phase des Kampfes, von dem er heute weiß, dass sie ihn nicht gewinnen konnten.
