Lyrics

We were stuck by the lighthouse
Waiting for the rogue waves to come
Crashing down on us
Wash me away 
Oh the currents got a hold on me
Wash me away 
Oh Poseidons’ got a hit on my head

Consequence is tragedy
Hold my hand
The seven seas
Devour me
Heavens peak
Higher than the underneath
Do you want my soul to keep
The waters deep don't leave the beach
Don't leave the beach
Running from the rising greif 
It's starting to take hold of me 
Like you it moves so silently
But silence is my everything
It's better than expecting death
When silence is your everything
Everything is in your head
No wonder why there's nothing left
No wonder why there's nothing left
Take my hand and hold your breath
I'm nothing but a beating chest
Suffering
Suffering the consequence

We were stuck by the lighthouse
Waiting for the rogue waves to come
Crashing down on us
Wash me away 
Oh the currents got a hold on me
Wash me away 
Oh Poseidons’ got a hit on my head

Blackened clouds
Consequence for pretentious mouth
Honestly did you think that one good deed, 
Would save your soul? 
This is Godspeed
Rock the ship back and forth
I don’t wanna die anymore
It’s funny when you’re faced with life and death
Situations how quickly you pick up your head

Gotta pick up 
Gotta pick up 
Gotta pick up 
Gotta pick up 
Gotta pick up
Gotta pick up 
Your head

We were stuck by the lighthouse
Waiting for the rogue waves to come
Crashing down on us
Wash me away 
Oh the currents got a hold on me
Wash me away 
Oh Poseidons’ got a hit on my head

We were stuck by the lighthouse
Waiting for the rogue waves to come
Crashing down on us
Wash me away 
Oh the currents got a hold on me
Wash me away 
Oh Poseidons’ got a hit on my head

"The melody of a harp rides the wild waves of the sea, like a delicate voice attempting to be heard in this noisy world.
Sometimes it is good to observe in silence and heed the message of nature"

Can You Feel Me

Second part of my father trilogy.
This song is based on a dream I had a good 20 years ago with my father, who had been dead for some time. 
I am in a dimly lit room. It's just me and somehow my father's energy body. At some point, this invisible energy body comes towards me. Then we embrace. It is a merging embrace. Something deep inside me releases and makes me cry. It's not so much a sad cry, but a liberating, soothing cry that pacifies me completely. 
Since this dream, the grudge I harboured against him for a long time has largely disappeared.     
Somehow he has been there inside me since then and I can sometimes visit him (even in dreams) when I want to talk to him.

The arrangement of the song is deliberately minimalist (just vocals, guitar and violin, hardly any effects) in order to emphasise the tremendous intimacy of the encounter between my father and me in the dream described above (there is no longer a "leaf" between us).

My Father  (Lyrics in English)

Would so like to talk to you
Break through the walls to the hereafter
Meet you in a moon cafe
On chairs that stand here and there

You died before the Berlin Wall came down
My son was born on the day you died
Never saw my beautiful wife
Although you had aimed 
For a hundred years of life

You only reached half of it
Life was rarely really easy for you

You were often too close to the stars
Underestimated the danger to your life
Had so many visions
Wanted to live in castles in the air

Then you were all there again
So clairvoyant, wise and clear

Would love to have you with me now
My father, I would love to have you here now 

The dividing wall to you is now open
I haven't met you for so long
You're waiting for me in the moon cafe
I see you in the soft twilight

I want to tell you so many things
What happened after you left
You still wanted to experience it all
Your early death did not grant you that

You were so torn, the demons, they tore at you
You loved the rush, had little sense of yourself

And yet you were in deep distress
My ever-protecting boat
My steadying hand
The lighthouse in my land of chaos

You gave up the shirt off your back
That ultimately cost you your life

Would love to have you with me now
My father, I wish you were here now


Mein Vater (Deutscher Originaltext)

Möchte so gern mit Dir sprechen
Die Mauern zum Jenseits durchbrechen
Dich in einem Mond-Cafe` treffen
Auf Stühlen, die hier und dort stehen

Vor dem (Berliner) Mauerfall bist Du gestorben
An Deinem Todestag wurde mein Sohn geboren
Hast meine schöne Frau niemals erlebt
Dabei hattest Du 
Hundert Jahre Leben angestrebt

Hast grad‘ mal gut die Hälfte davon erreicht
Das Leben war für Dich selten wirklich leicht

Warst oft den Sternen zu nah
Unterschätztest die Lebensgefahr
Hattest so viele Visionen
Wolltest in Luftschlössern wohnen

Dann warst Du wieder ganz da
So hellsichtig, weise und klar

Hätt‘ Dich so gern jetzt bei mir
Mein Vater, hätt‘ Dich jetzt gern hier 

Die Trennwand zu Dir steht jetzt offen
So lange hab‘ ich Dich nicht getroffen
Du wartest im Mond-Cafe‘ auf mich
Ich seh‘ Dich im zarten Dämmerlicht

Ich will Dir so vieles erzählen
Was so geschah nach Deinem Fortgehen
Du wolltest das alles noch erleben
Dein früher Tod hat Dir das nicht vergönnt

Warst so zerrissen, die Dämonen, sie zerrten an Dir
Liebtest den Rausch, hattest für Dich wenig Feingespür

Und dennoch warst Du in tiefer Not
Mein stets mich schützendes Boot
Meine mir haltgebende Hand
Der Leuchtturm in meinem Chaos-Land

Hast Dein letztes Hemd hergegeben
Das kostete Dich letztlich Dein Leben

Hätt‘ Dich so gern jetzt bei mir
Mein Vater, hätt‘ Dich jetzt gern hier
