This remastered album "Flight of Light" chronicles the dramatic shift in Inge's world as the idyllic life she knew in Book 1 becomes overshadowed by the growing influence of the Nazi regime. Inge and her siblings are drawn into the activities of the Hitler Youth and League of German Girls, experiencing a strange mix of camaraderie, newfound responsibilities, and subtle indoctrination.

The innocence of childhood games and explorations gives way to a more structured and ideological environment. Inge faces internal conflict as she grapples with the disharmony between the values instilled by her family and the increasingly rigid expectations of the regime.

The book portrays the subtle ways in which ordinary people are drawn into the machinery of a totalitarian system. The music for Book 2 mirrors this internal and external conflict, expressing the emotional turmoil of a nation on the brink of war and a family struggling to maintain its values in the face of overwhelming change.

"Flight of Light" is a powerful exploration of the loss of innocence and the struggle to find a sense of belonging in a world on the brink of chaos. The music echoes this struggle, offering a poignant soundtrack to a pivotal chapter in Inge's life. It sets the stage for the dramatic events that will unfold in the subsequent books, as the Feyerabends face the full impact of the war and the difficult choices that lie ahead.

I was Loving You (Re-mix)

Biting Snake

[Verse]
Slither slow through the grass so dry
Your tongue tastes the air while the shadows lie
The sun’s melting gold on your restless skin
A bite is a promise where the pain begins

[Chorus]
Biting snake biting snake
Coiled in the dark
Leave a venomous ache
You don’t warn you just take
Biting snake biting snake

[Verse 2]
Fangs flash quick like a silver streak
No words no mercy no time to speak
You’re a hunter of silence
A thief of breath
Your love feels like life but it smells like death

[Chorus]
Biting snake biting snake
Coiled in the dark
Leave a venomous ache
You don’t warn you just take
Biting snake biting snake

[Bridge]
Every scar is a map every wound tells a tale
Of a predator’s dance on a fragile trail
I chased your rattle I fell for the sound
Now I’m lost where no cure can be found

[Chorus]
Biting snake biting snake
Coiled in the dark
Leave a venomous ache
You don’t warn you just take
Biting snake biting snake

Biting Snake

This song is about injustice and man’s attitude towards money rather than people. 
Trumps over here playing golf ? Who cares 
He’s signed a trade deal with Europe today ? Who cares 
What about the innocent people of Gaza and the malnourished children ?

Skies on fire burning red
Ashes whisper where hope once bled
The air is heavy the silence loud
Fear is rising in the shrouded crowd

Missiles falling hearts are crying
The earth is screaming people dying
When the smoke clears who's still there
Skies on fire and no one cares

Skies of fire .mp3

Sea for the Forgotten

Tell Me, What Is Love?

My Phrases Songs Do Not Make Sense

The Elevator Only Goes to Tuesday

Where The Sky Listens

[Verse 1]
Falling blowing in the wind’s slow hands
light breaks across the horizon
every shadow sings every silence bends
a voice beneath the sky—waiting

[Verse 2]
You reach—
your hand in mine
a thread across the distance
we are small
but the stars lean in anyway
they listen when we breathe

[Chorus]
Ooooh… ahhh… ohhh…
The sound of hanging on
the sound of never giving up

[Verse 3]
Mountains crumble into the dark
oceans turn their faces to the moon
we move as if the earth remembers
as if we are its echo—
returning home

[Bridge]
Hold on
I am here
where the sky listens
where we belong—
even in silence
even in the dark

[Final Chorus]
Ooooh… ahhh… ohhh…
We are infinite
we are quiet
we are heard

[Outro]
Where the sky listens
I will find you

Where The Sky Listens

Wenn die Winde wehen,
dann lass ich los und seh,
wohin sie mich heut tragen.
Vielleicht ans Meer, vielleicht zurück zu dir,
vielleicht zu neuen Tagen.
Ich hab gelernt, dass jeder Sturm vergeht,
wenn die Winde wehen.

Irgendwo da draußen
wartet neues Land.
Ich spür die Richtung,
auch wenn ich sie nicht benennen kann.

Ich hab gelernt, nichts bleibt für immer,
nicht das Licht und nicht der Tag.
Wir tragen Träume wie alte Bilder,
in unseren Taschen, schwarz und weiß.

Und manchmal tut das Weitergehn weh,
doch Stillstand wär viel schlimmer.
Also halt ich kurz die Luft an

Wenn die Winde wehen,
dann lass ich los und seh,
wohin sie mich heut tragen.
Vielleicht ans Meer, vielleicht zurück zu dir,
vielleicht zu neuen Tagen.
Ich hab gelernt, dass jeder Sturm vergeht,
wenn die Winde wehen.

Irgendwo da draußen
wartet neues Land.
Ich spür die Richtung,
auch wenn ich sie nicht benennen kann.

Und wenn ich fall,
dann fall ich seicht,
denn ich weiß, der Wind
trägt mich vielleicht.
Und wenn ich flieg,
dann flieg ich frei –
keine Angst,
will nur dabei sein.

Wenn die Winde wehen,
dann lass ich los und seh,
wohin sie mich heut tragen.
Vielleicht ans Meer, vielleicht zurück zu dir,
vielleicht zu neuen Tagen.
Ich hab gelernt, dass jeder Sturm vergeht,
wenn die Winde wehen.
