Augenblick Demo

Equilibrium Demo

Vogelperspektive Demo

A song about a tricky raven, who appeared once in a dream of mine. What a fraud he was...
Written by Raffael Pankraz and Jenny Hellenschmidt!

The Raven (feat. Jenny Hellenschmidt)

This song reflects on the relation of the past and the future, persons being tied together and how one struggles being stuck in the presence.

The Chorus

And though I know
I hold temporary hands
I'm being watched by permanent eyes
and all these moments are burnt
by an arguing sun
that makes no excuse
when grabbing too far

Temporary Hands (with "A Seesaw Odyssey")

A song about looking back at things with different eyes.

Carcass (Work In Progress)

The bits and the pieces of a great collapse
a commotion inside and your hand on my chest
I'm speechless, quiet, in love with a dream
but the cigarette kicks in and I'm encased in smoke

you help me understand the light
I've had it once too but I've lost track of the spark
It's a light one stumbles upon in the dark
I just wish to be held and I wish to be loved

so, I carry the leaves
fallen off trees
the errand of a fool

the cycle repeats
I've planted some seeds
then I looked away

you show the way
though I think you're astray
but I'll follow suit anyway

The folds and the wrinkles of a tethered mind
I often try to force where there is no force behind
a contract, unspoken, and broken too soon
but the coffee stirs me up again and I'm in solid form

So I've lost my sense of direction again
being lost can be a beacon in itself sometimes
look here, how I'm deceiving myself
I just wished it was different, but I'm trying too hard

So long, so long, sweet silence
you've been golden for too long
can one man change his virtues
by means of sheer mind
and if so I'll just roll over
sink the boat I'm in
fill my lungs with water
steadying my chin

Golden Silence (Work In Progress / Demo)

I'd like to rip myself apart
opening wounds and scars
and think no more

and then I'll assemble the pieces
I'll walk from limb to limb
my mind - a dissonancy orchestra

pressure... fills my lungs
I'd like to be released
burst into flames

my body knows more than my brain
but I feel the latter claim
most of who I think I might be

I baptise myself in disarray
practise my part for doomsday
when it comes, I'd like to sing along

I seem to choke
on my oxygen
Why do I choke on my oxygen?

So I've built myself a frame
crafted to hold me in chains
the more I move, the tighter it gets

incentive to leave it all behind
for I was born on a whim
and I struggle to swim ever since

Pressure... fills my lungs
I'd like to be released
burst into flames
