Der Geier

Es war ein Geier, der hackte in meine Füße. Stiefel und Strümpfe hatte er schon aufgerissen, nun hackte er schon in die Füße selbst. Immer schlug er zu, flog dann unruhig mehrmals um mich und setzte dann die Arbeit fort. Es kam ein Herr vorüber, sah ein Weilchen zu und fragte dann, warum ich den Geier dulde. »Ich bin ja wehrlos«, sagte ich, »er kam und fing zu hacken an, da wollte ich ihn natürlich wegtreiben, versuchte ihn sogar zu würgen, aber ein solches Tier hat große Kräfte, auch wollte er mir schon ins Gesicht springen, da opferte ich lieber die Füße. Nun sind sie schon fast zerrissen.« »Daß Sie sich so quälen lassen«, sagte der Herr, »ein Schuß und der Geier ist erledigt.« »Ist das so?« fragte ich, »und wollen Sie das besorgen?« »Gern«, sagte der Herr, »ich muß nur nach Hause gehn und mein Gewehr holen. Können Sie noch eine halbe Stunde warten?« »Das weiß ich nicht«, sagte ich und stand eine Weile starr vor Schmerz, dann sagte ich: »Bitte, versuchen Sie es für jeden Fall.« »Gut«, sagte der Herr, »ich werde mich beeilen.« Der Geier hatte während des Gespräches ruhig zugehört und die Blicke zwischen mir und dem Herrn wandern lassen. Jetzt sah ich, daß er alles verstanden hatte, er flog auf, weit beugte er sich zurück, um genug Schwung zu bekommen und stieß dann wie ein Speerwerfer den Schnabel durch meinen Mund tief in mich. Zurückfallend fühlte ich befreit, wie er in meinem alle Tiefen füllenden, alle Ufer überfließenden Blut unrettbar ertrank.

Der Geier (Franz Kafka, 1920)

River runs down to the sea
Takes away all of me
Finally reaches its source
Gives me new life with force

New days will come for us
Let yourself calm down in trust

River runs down feat. some decibel

Don´t hide yourself like me, my dear
This will never work you know
„I won´t show myself if you don’t“
That´s the name of our game of fear

I´ve been bored of your avatar
When will you show me who you are 
Show your face without a shame
Sign this crap with your real name

Don´t try and show how smart you are
My trust in this has gone too far
Your weakness will help me a lot more
That is what I’m still here for

I´ve been bored of your avatar
When will you show me who you are 
Show your face without a shame
Sign this crap with your real name

I´ve been bored of your avatar
I´ve been bored of your avatar

I´m just trying to show you something
You don’t want to know
I´m hiding all my guarded secrets
You already know
As if I stupid man would not comprehend
you go down to my plain 
Tell me it is plain to see
Your crying´s all about me

You say we’re goin´ down slow
And you have always known
We´re goin´ down slow
That´s the way things go

Drunk, lost and lonely, 
Melancholic beyond words,
Angry till you’re trembling,
And feeling unready for love,
You go out in a wild romantic gesture 
To a beautiful woman    
You fake a smile and a sober expression
And all in the name of love and pain.

You say we’re goin´ down slow
And you have always known
We´re goin´ down slow
That´s the way things go

You wonder ´bout all these contradictions 
All these trials and confusions inside
But with a splendid displacement
You will let them hide.

You say we’re goin´ down slow
And you have always known
We´re goin´ down slow
That´s the way things go

Goin´down slow

In this life 
We really only have ourselves
In this life we´re with
We're only with ourselves constantly

No escaping from our self
We just have to believe in it
No escaping from our self 
Even when we do not see it

No escaping from our self
We just have to believe in it
Doubt feeds doubt
Confidence feeds confidence
This is what he said to me

IN THIS LIFE (for a friend)

Inflatable (Bush Cover)

In anger, we never , we never do what pleases God
And you will, will never, you will never love what 

What I do in fear, what I do in fear,
What I do in fear, what I do in fear

Thought you’d save me when I’m calling, 
You said it’s early in the morning
 I said yes, I know, dear,

I know, but I’m falling
I know, but I’m falling
I know, but I’m falling
I know, but I’m falling
...

FALLING (Electra Volcana/Druid)

music by Gebr K
lyrics/vocals by Druid

It's always been a
Heavy, wonderful, confusing, wild
Hard, curious, lost and lonely
Abandoned, happy, sorrowful life.

Been feeling alone for so long
Lord, been feeling alone for so long

And from the depths
In the least conceivable pain
Rises up sometimes
Something of sheer, untoxic, eternal love

Been feeling alone for so long
Lord, been feeling alone for so long

One day we will be
Undisturbed and free
Don´t you know, finally
Realize all beauty and divinity

Been feeling alone for so long
Lord, been feeling alone for so long

LORD, BEEN FEELING ALONE FOR SO LONG (ART.SILENCE/DRUID)

The whole world is in their hands,
Waiting for you to do what they told,
But the whole world is in your hand,
Waiting for you to do for what you came.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
Come on, become a torchbearer
Come on, become a torchbearer
The whole world in your hands
Tell me for what you came here
Come on, become a torchbearer
Come on, become a torchbearer

Become A Torchbearer

Standing on a tiny feeling wave
I asked myself.

What I always wanted
Was real closeness to you,
Every time I tried, I failed.
Every word I should have said to you
Was swallowed up by demons inside,
Was swallowed up inside.
Infinite deepness was beyond my reach,
But the longing was strong,  the longing was strong,
And the closeness so far
And only these scars remind me of the war I waged with my little ray of hope 
Against myself, against myself, against all darkness.

Standing on a tiny feeling wave
I asked myself.

What I always wanted I let go like a tow rope I was hanging on, 
Unable to move on, so I held on to you. 
There was nothing you could do to help me out of this swamp, 
I kept on trying to drown myself again and again and again. 
So the days went by and you had enough of this unhappy man.

Standing on a tiny feeling wave

I had no words, you had patience no more
Had no words, you had patience no more 
And I would have really liked to find out what closeness is for.

Standing on a tiny feeling wave
I asked myself.

Standing on a tiny feeling wave (Electra Volcana Trance Remix)

My creative power exceeds my imagination.
I have been constricted by the ideas and beliefs 
I once had accepted and now I can see 
the need 
to let go 
of all my 
limitations, 
of all my
fears,
of all my 
expectations.

I know that there is a part in you that exceeds your imagination.
You have been constructed with unlimited access 
To all of your answers until you can see
the need 
to let go 
of all your 
limitations, 
of all your
fears,
of all your 
expectations.

I know there’s a part of us exceeding all imagination.
We have been constricted by the ideas and beliefs 
We once had accepted but now we can see 
the need 
to let go 
of all our
limitations, 
of all our
fears,
of all our
expectations.
of all our
limitations, 
of all our
fears,
of all our
expectations.

The Need

EACH TIME, IT IS AN HONOR AND MY PLEASURE TO WORK WITH HER.
Electra Volcana IS SUCH A GREAT ARTIST.
THANKS, SISTER, FOR PUTTING UP WITH ME!

I don't believe you and I were made for this.

Carrying out orders that do not come from within ourselves

I don't believe you and I were made for this.

To meet social expectations and not to attract attention


I don't believe you and I were made for submitting to anyone.

I believe you and I were made for finding our way back home.

I believe you and I were made for finding our way back home.

FINDING MY WAY (Electra Volcana/Druid)

RISE THE ROCKER FROM THE GRAVE


I love the Ukraine, sister
I love Mother Russia too
Brother, I love them all
Lord, everyone who is yet to fall


So dig, brother, don't you sleep, 
Don't you ever stop,
Big brother, don't you speak,
Don't feel safe
We rise the rocker from the grave


You know he ain't dead yet
And he will never fall
Big brother, bury them all
But we'll never fall

Rise The Rocker From The Grave

TO EVERYONE I LOVE ... FEEL LOVED


Lovesong

I wanna be with you somewhere different, 
Where we feel the moment just to be in gratitude, 
Together, united and one. 

I never want to lose you again 
And I need eternities to look into your eyes
And more eternities to listen to your laughter 
That I love so much and many eternities more. 

I want to listen to your voice 
And hear my name, 
To feel my heart open 
And my doubts dissolve in your warmth. 

I want to write lyrics and songs, 
Paint pictures, carve sculptures out of stones 
That try to tell what in that indescribable space above 
Or between this material world is connecting us. 

I feel faith in you 
And I hope you are with me 
As I am with you, 
I feel faith in you 
And I hope you are with me 
As I am with you,
As it is meant to be or as it was or as it should be. 

I just want to hold you in my arms and hear you breathing.
I just want to hold you in my arms and hear you breathing.
I just want to hold you in my arms...

Lovesong

Thanks to Chrissi for singing with me 🙏

"Emma"

We were together since we were five
She was so pretty
Emma was a star in everyone's eyes
And when she said she'd be a movie queen
Nobody laughed
Her face like an angel, she could be anything

Emmalene
Emma, Emmalene
I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen
Emmalene
Emma, Emmalene
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

At seventeen we were wed
And worked day and night to earn our daily bread
And every day Emma would go out searching for that play
That never ever came her way

You know sometimes she'd come home so depressed
I'd hear her crying in the back room feeling so distressed
And I'd remember back when she was five
To the words that used to make Emmalene come alive

It was Emmalene
Emma, Emmalene
I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen
Emmalene
Emma, Emmalene
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

It was cold and dark December night
When I opened the bedroom door
To find her lying still and cold up on the bed
A love letter lying on the bedroom floor

It read, "Darling, I love you.
But I just can't keep on living on dreams no more.
I tried so very hard not to leave you alone.
I just can't keep on tryin' no more."

Emmalene 
Oh, Emmalene
Emmalene

Emma (Hot Chocolate Cover)

Tonight you gave me back myself 


People like you and me 
You know we can't fight or flee
But we can stop feeling ourselves  
And we can feel dead inside
But tonight you gave me back myself
Tonight you gave me back myself

But in time, in time we will be knocked out again
In time, in time we will be knocked out again

And it's so hard to miss you now
It's hard and yet beautiful somehow
It feels like you belong here beside me
It feels like you can crawl into my arms forever, dear
But it's not where you wanna be
It's not where you wanna be

I will love you, no matter when
I will love you, no matter where

I know, anything I can understand
As long as I can hold your hand
But my heart will miss you anyhow
My sorrow won´t keep you here
My sorrow won´t keep you here
No reason that I can give you will make you stay

And in time, in time we will be knocked out again
In time, in time we will be locked down again

We can stop feeling ourselves  
And we can feel dead instead
But tonight you gave me back myself
You gave me back myself

I will love you, no matter when
I will love you, no matter where

Tonight You Gave Me Back Myself

What they think 


You throw your ideas out of the window
You no longer believe what you are told
You throw away your clothes
And you don’t give
You don’t give a damn no more

You throw your ideas out of the window
(And you don’t care what they think about it)
You no longer believe what you are told
(And you don’t care what they think about it)
You throw away all your clothes
(And you don’t care what they think about it)
You don’t, you don’t  give a damn no more
You don’t give a damn no more

You throw your memories out of the window
Throw everything that burdens you overboard
Let go of everything that talks garbage
And you, you don’t give a damn no more
What they think I don’t give a damn

What They Think (GebrK feat. Druid)

When I dream of you
I wake up alone in the day
Asking myself, what can I say to you?
When I wake up in the morning 
And I don't know what to say
I wanna know what you feel and do today 
And I know that you can't hide your laughter for so long
And I hope that this time it's not at me at all
You know your laughter can tear apart every single man 
And you will love to tear apart everything you can
You're the greatest, strangest, most beautiful woman I've ever known, 
I know, I know, I know, i know, I know
When I wake up and I don't know what to say
I say, you are strong, baby, you are strong today
You never gonna give up, I know, you never gonna give up 
I know, you will not give up anyway
I say, dear, you will ever be the most beautiful woman I've ever seen
Even if the spa is more than six hours ago 
I know you're the most beautiful girl
I've ever seen in the world 
Even if the spa is more than six hours ago 
You are so
Beautiful

Most Beautiful Woman I´ve Ever Seen Even If The Spa Is More Than Six Hours Ago

This bad feeling inside my walls
There's a bad feeling inside my walls
Asking me just how I feel
You're so kind but is it real?
Asking me just how I feel
You're so kind but are you real?
I feel stuck 
something's pulling me down
I feel shame
If you could see me now
If you could see me now

Open up your walls
If we could open up the walls
Open up
Dream

Though it's me you see
You still not gonna leave
Even though it's you I see 
Even though it's you I see 
You could  try and show yourself to me
Something never trusted, something in me 
Is about to put my trust in you 
Something in you that doesn't believe 
Puts your faith in me
You are a gift from god
To my soul 
I try to find the courage 
To take it on
Some day when you doubt yourself 
I will believe in you
I will believe
Find courage to take it on
The gift that has been given
From where we all belong
It's what you are.
Some day when you doubt yourself 
I will believe in you
I will believe in you
I will believe in you

Bad Feeling

A GAME TO HURT MYSELF

I FAKE MY TINY LIFE´S OKAY
I FAKE MY SORROWS ARE MILES AWAY
I FAKE MY LOVER THINKS I´M GREAT
MY TIME WILL COME BUT IT´S GETTING LATE

IT´S A GAME TO HURT MYSELF
TO MAKE YOU SEE AND LOVE MYSELF
IT´S A LIARS GAME TO RAISE MYSELF
TO LOSE MY SOUL FAR AWAY FROM HERE

RIDICULOUS TO CHECK MY FRIENDS
ON THIS CROWD MY LUCK DEPENDS
I DO NOT FEEL THAT VERY WELL
BUT WOULD YOU PLEASE THINK I DO

IT´S A GAME TO HURT MYSELF
IT´S A GAME TO HURT MYSELF
IT´S A GAME TO HURT MYSELF
IT´S A GAME TO HURT MYSELF

A Game To Hurt Myself

The whole damned world could wait

We ran though this 
Without being aware
Did we think
We could win anything
Did we think
We could just keep on living
These avatar's lifes
We are not 

Can I rest my soul for a while?
Can I rest and will you wait for me?

You came from a sidewalk
I did not ever go there
And you smiled at me
With your red hair hanging down
Did we think we could 
Talk forever
Did we think the whole
Damned world could wait

Everytime your head is full
Of things you can't fight back or hide
Lean on me, lean on me, if you like
Everytime your precious head is full
Of things you can't describe
Just lean on me, just lean on me, 
Baby, if you like

But can I rest my soul for a while?
Can I rest and will you wait for me?

The Whole Damned World Could Wait

What Happened Before

I was sitting on a table with four strange men,
Asking who they were but they did not understand.
I left the room to get outside where I met one of them,
He gave me his old torn map on which he had circled a place.
I got into my car and rolled it to an unknown space.
A space so strange and beautiful where nobody did know me.
So I stayed there a couple of days where nobody did know me.
No one talked to me again
And nobody did meet me.
And when I came back home again longing for my baby
I said girl, hey babe, but she did not know me
Nobody did know me
Nobody did know me
No one talked to me as well
I did not recognize that hell
On my bleeding knees I fell
I did not know that world at all.
On my bleeding knees I fell
And I did not know me
I did not know me

What Happened Before

Grant me freedom,
Mother goddess,
And spiritual glory,
Mother goddess,
Let me reach my goals,
Mother goddess,
and destroy my inner demons.

Rupam Dehi

I used to think I´m kinda cool, 
But then I read in some fucking magazine
"Doesn´t think he´s weird but others do"
And it got me thinking,
Thinking of you.
That´s right, I can fake coolness 
Only for so long
As long as I can keep up with that crazy shit out there
And talk about soccer and the weather
With all these psychos around
And resist talking about
What I really wanna talk about.
Zombies, seizure of power by aliens
And by the way why she didn´t write me
For more than twentyfour hours by now.
I mean, what if some reptile aliens
Has kidnapped her
And she wanted to write me the whole fucking day
But she could not
Cause of these freaky greenskins you know?
Creepy weird shit everywhere
And the rain and anything
That keeps me up
From being real cool today.

Something that keeps me up from being real cool today

Just because you think your so funny
But I cannot hear your laughing anymore
Don´t talk to me about making money
Donut look for admiration 
I don't got one

Just because you think you're so clever
I will not look into your eyes no more
Why are you walking on that cantilever
You need a rescue rope 
I don't got one

All your words are hurting my mind
All your words are hurting my mind

I Don´t  Got One (MrDjBigHouse feat. Druid)

(music & lyrics by Art.Silence, 
vocals by Druid)

1.4 million deaths in World War 1 
should not be the same again
He Said and died

Maginot
Monsieur Maginot
Never saw it fullfilled
But it had been,
Never saw it fullfilled,

Today you see the fortress 
taken by the Woods 
but it could not prevent 
millions more of deaths.

Maginot, not forgotten but lost in the Woods

It was the most modern and longest fortification system of its time and cost 5 million francs.
Between 1929 and 1936, 20,000 workers completed it under high pressure 
1000 soldiers were held ready in the fortresses 
under tough conditions.

The Nazi screamed the radios 
and fanned his flames of hatred all over the Land
The Maginot Line was never defeated 
but still could not prevent the great tragedy!

Today there are new others, fanning the flames of hatred all over the land
Monsieur Maginot

Do we need a Marginot?

Monsieur Marginot (Art.Silence feat. DRUID)

To me he is one of the greatest artists on the planet.

Alice (Tribute to Tom Waits)

Stones pile up everywhere 
And make my path impassable  today
Mirages make me go in the wrong direction 
And they are hiding my way

A voice is calling but I'm not sure
Maybe it is unreal 
Maybe it´s just obscure
I don´t give a damn

I know I´ve taken the wrong turn 
The day it happened
I know I´ve taken the wrong turn
I was not ready
 
I have to find another road
I have to find another road

A voice is calling but I'm not sure
Maybe it is unreal 
Maybe it´s just obscure

Rampart / something´s hiding the way (MrDjBigHouse feat. Druid)

No more, I wanna hide no more

I wanna rip off my heart for you
I wanna speak the truth to you
I wanna feel like lovers do
I wanna feel myself in you

All your love that´s hiding inside 
and all the longing that you try to hide
All the longing that you try to hide
All the longing that you try to hide
You try to hide

I wanna rip off my heart for you
I wanna feel like lovers do
I wanna stand on holy ground with you
I wanna feel myself in you

All your loving 
All your loving 
All your loving

I wanna seak the truth with you
I wanna feel myself in you


All your loving 
All your loving 
All your loving

I wanna feel myself in you

All The Love You Hide

I dedicate this song to my amazing wonderful David. 
Always feel loved, my son, my precious one. 


Druid All The Way Down

Reinvent yourself every single dawn
And don´t forget to do
Just because you´re busy or fawn
Just get me right

Someone will come

Someone will come to invent you
As you were new born
But you are not

Someone will come to invent you
As you were new born
But you are not
You are not

And they will never 
Know whatever you need

It’s a serious mistake
Try and change the inside of the cage
It will be boring again, my love
In time you’ll wake
You’ll wake

And when you feel the rage
And you think it’s hell
It’s not
Maybe not

It’s about to tear up the chains
That ought to keep you in frame 
To make you give up under the strains
To give you a name
To file you up to know who you are
But they will not
Go and live your life without fear 

And always feel loved

Druid All The Way Down (MrDjBighouse feat. DRUID)

Reminder (Mumford & Sons Cover)

Oh divine mother Sarasvati
Please grant me liberation
And supreme bliss
Glory be to you
Great God
You have taken the form
Of half man, half lion
To show us the 4th incarnation 
Of Vishnu
That your great power works
Everywhere

Oh Divine Mother

Burning
She dreamed of us
She dreamed of this world
In peace and trust
And a trace of childlike mindlessness
For she was not very old
When she thought of us
Her children
Whom she raised in love
And we grew enough
Enough to make her mothers heart so proud
And she felt love
Only to be raped and tortured by her own seed.

If I had a wish for free,
What would it be?
Would I wish for her
Or wish for me?
While we tell ourselves 
What good we are
We keep on telling ourselves 
The way we are

This world is burning alive
While we do not see
This world is burning alive
While we fall asleep

While we tell ourselves on and on 
That we will make up for it again 
Bound by the chain of suffering
She waits for the dawning of mental growing
The abuse feels like home by now
The abuse feels like home, like home

This world is burning alive
While we do not see
This world is burning alive
While we fall asleep

Let her flames devour the indifferent ones
May at least this be granted
She would had OD´ed long ago
But she wasn´t able to
She felt love for love for us
She felt love for love for us
She felt love for love for us
She felt love for love for us
Unable to hate
She didn't even know that there was hate
And rape and war
She never needed all of that
