=========================================
Mad Hatter was remixed and remastered on 11 January 2025
=========================================
In 1972 I was heading towards South America via Mexico and other parts of Central America. I knew that certain hairstyles were frowned upon at various borders. Rather than doing anything drastic, like cutting my hair, I purchase a $15 dollar short hair wig and wore it for my passport photo. 

That wig hat served me well across a number of borders.

I actually wrote the song before I ever crossed one of those borders. At least I think so. I know I wrote it while I was travelling on my own somewhere between the US border and Silvia, Columbia. I had plenty of time in cheap hotel rooms along the way.

I like to think that this song says something about the experience of being a traveller on the road to who knows where. I'm not sure what that might be, but it feels very familiar. It takes me back.

Verse 1:
Looking for hat that comes from south of the border
He needs very big one so it must be made to order
All we really know is that he's from a northern nation
Where he took off his sombrero and he left it in the station

Chorus:
But it’s all right
It doesn’t matter
Been a long night
For the mad hatter

Verse 2:
Morning takes his head and hides it in the corner
But that can’t conceal the fact that he’s been heading for the border
So he takes a couple pills just to prove he’s not a purist
Puts a wig hat on his head so he looks just like a tourist

Chorus:
But it’s all right
It doesn’t matter
Been a long night
For the mad hatter

Verse 3:
Paradise is just a place he touches on the run
The loving and the living give him strength for moving on
The world’s out there waiting but it always strikes him funny
When he ends up in some hell hole and he’s just run out of money

Chorus:
But it’s all right
It doesn’t matter
Been a long night
For the mad hatter


Verse 4:
Can’t tell you bout his future, can’t tell you bout his past
Sometimes he says he’s happy and hopes that it’ll last
More often in the night in his hotel all alone
He wonders what he’s doing why he hasn’t got a home

Chorus:
But it’s all right
It doesn’t matter
Been a long night
For the mad hatter

A song about how I felt after losing my soulmate.

Louder than Silence
Lyrics:
There's nothing louder than this silence.
Oh, what a forceful mess of nothing at all.
Like I've been ripped out of reality.
Somehow, my mind became an enemy.
And in this limbo, nothing works anymore
Except for the booze.
I still get pissed on my booze.

Nothing is louder than your silence.
There's nothing sweeter than your face.
Nothing more violent than your footsteps in the snow leading to that place where you spend the nights
Still, I hope that he treats you right.
And that you're doing well.
If I could ask for one thing in life
I'd send him straight to hell.
And you as well.

I should apply myself and fight this head-on.
Muster some willpower and go by the rules.
Just by following this simple plan
I would come out of it a better man.
If simple plans worked as solutions for me
don't you think I would be
A better man already?

No force may hold a candle to love that is lost.
Enslaves your mind and breaks your heart every time.
Until the very last drop
Drains you of all that you got.
Love conquers all—when it's lost

There's nothing louder than your absence.
Nothing was sweeter than your face.
How vioilent footsteps can make anger take controll non of us did know, until that night 
Last sign of you I`ll ever know
Is melting with the snow
If could ask for one thing in life
-...
I'm sorry, hun.

no man may  hold a candle to love when its lost.
Enslaves his mind and breaks his heart with brute force.
Reality squashed.
Right and wrong, tossed.
When love conquers all—all is lost.

Text TNM - Drummer:

„Wo geht es hin, wenn alles endet“

1. Strophe:
Ich frage mich wohin führt diese Reise
Ob’s Ende kommt oder wird es neuer Horizont
Das Leben zieht vorbei mit kleinen und grossen Kreisen
Und hinterlässt die Frage, was ist der Grund

Die Uhren ticken laut in der Stille
Der Schatten wird zum Licht am Horizont
Das Pendel schwingt ist das mein Wille
Doch wo es endet bleibt mir unbekannt

Refrain:
Wo geht es hin wenn alles endet
Ein neuer Hall ein ferner Traum
Ist da ein Licht dass uns verbindet
Oder bleiben nur  Fragen im Raum

2. Strophe:
Ich spür den Wind der mich durch’s Leben trägt
Die Zweifel flüstern leise in mein Ohr
Ein steter Puls der müde weiter schlägt
Doch wo ist Ziel, gibt es ein Tor

Im Dunkeln finden sich die Sterne
Ein kleines Funkeln weit entfernt
Vielleicht sind Fragen uns nur ferne
Und Hoffnung ist was und wirklich wärmt

Refrain:
Wo geht es hin wenn alles endet
Ein neuer Hall ein ferner Traum
Ist da ein Licht dass uns verbindet
Oder bleiben nur Fragen im Raum

3. Strophe:
Ich spür den Wind der mich durch’s Leben trägt
Die Zweifel flüstern leise in mein Ohr
Ein steter Puls der müde weiter schlägt
Doch wo ist Ziel, gibt es ein Tor

Im Dunkeln finden sich die Sterne
Ein kleines Funkeln weit entfernt
Vielleicht sind Fragen uns nur ferne
Und Hoffnung ist was und wirklich wärmt

Refrain:
Wo geht es hin wenn alles endet
Ein neuer Hall ein ferner Traum
Ist da ein Licht dass uns verbindet
Oder bleiben nur Fragen im Raum

Wo geht es hin, wenn alles endet?

[Verse 1]
Wires hum in the dead of night,
Neon glow, just a satellite,
Fingers dancing, breaking locks,
Cracking codes on ticking clocks.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every firewall’s just a gate,
Every cipher spells their fate,
Shadow steps, I leave no trace,
I’m a phantom in this place.

[Chorus]
I’m a digital ghost, creeping in the stream,
Sifting through the codes, tearing at the seams.
Buried in the data, hidden in the dark,
I will find your secrets, rip them all apart.

[Verse 2]
Encrypted whispers, silent calls,
Buried files behind firewalls,
One wrong move, the alarms will scream,
But I’m already in your machine.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every password’s just a key,
Every secret’s calling me,
Shadow steps, I leave no trace,
I’m rewriting all your fate.

[Chorus]
I’m a digital ghost, creeping in the stream,
Sifting through the codes, tearing at the seams.
Buried in the data, hidden in the dark,
I will find your secrets, rip them all apart.

[Bridge]
Binary whispers, numbers collide,
Red lights flashing, no place to hide.
You built the walls, but I hold the key,
Now your empire belongs to me.

[Outro]
Delete your name, erase your past,
Ghost in the system, fading fast.
One last breach, and I’m long gone,
Your secrets burn before the dawn.
