Half past nowhere
We curl up tightly
in our beds at night & wait.
Without hope, without dreams.
It looks more & more like the same old movie.
The actors are changing,
but the plot ceeps the same:
SENSELESS
We should have known,
watching our fathers...
We should have known,
watching our mothers...
& now we embraced their ignorance
as our own.
& now something so sad has hold of us,
that the breath leaves
& we can't even cry.
The wasted potential of a whole generation,
so many lost oportunities...
It's half past midnight in dying world
& we can only blame ourselves.
So come sit with me in the dark.
It's half past nowhere.
EVERYWHERE

Dunes
Walking barefood in the dunes.
Building sandbag castles all day long,
but night for night drowning is near.
A dear in the headlights, roarng like a lion.
A breakfast for champions & drunk to the brim.
Everyday life – indomitable
How long, till i finally can sleep?

Hell, that‘s the others...
Noises all around
an all engulfing & dementing row
Eyes burning holes.
Here them calling my name,
like its band news.
Segredaded in a petrified consciosness,
where thougts are only scretchings on the wall.
I can't stand people,
as i can't stand my own.
Listened to water droppng in tubs
& i wished to drown.
Frightened, worried, confused, anxiety
& hell, that's the others.
It's a lonely cold world full of frightened people,
just as it always has been.

What color has your flag
when it‘s burning?
Hear them scream for liberty, freedom, independence...
An romantic few of the past,
economic interests,
fundamentalists,
or simply patriots.
National seperatism in the 21st century,
when nations itself should be obsolete & abolished anyway.
So if you struggle for liberty & independence,
fight to liberate from the state, not as a state.
So much wasted energy, just reproduce the things,
we fight to overcome.
What good is another fucking nation for,
than more borders & exclusion?
What means national identity to an indivudial?
& what colour has your flag, when it's burning?!
