Intro (spoken / soft)
Close your eyes...
Can you hear the sun breathing?
Can you feel time —
folding into itself?

Verse 1
I saw reflections in the water sky,
Whispers turning into waves.
Every sound was born from silence,
Every fear learned how to fade.

Pre-Chorus
And we are travelers of meaning,
Fragments of a cosmic song.
The edge is not the ending —
it’s where we belong.

Chorus
At the edge of light — we remember,
all the stars we used to be.
Through the echo of forever,
flows the sound of unity.
Hold the moment — let it shine,
we are timeless by design.

(Guitarsolo)

Verse 2
Through the lens of living dreams,
truth and wonder intertwine.
Every shadow holds a memory,
of something beautifully divine.

(Organsolo)

Bridge (Orgel solo, rising choir)
Close to the edge... we fall,
only to rise — beyond it all.
We are the chord that never dies,
the pulse between the earth and sky.

Final Chorus
At the edge of light — we remember,
what it means to truly see.
Every ending just surrenders,
to the start of what we’ll be.

Edge of Light

Text:
Verse 1
Woke in the static, glass in my veins,
Every signal’s calling my name.
Neon heartbeats, fractured dreams,
I dissolve inside the machine.

Pre-Chorus
Mirror cities on my skin,
Reflections loop, I fade within.

Chorus
I’m the man who feels every day,
In circuits built from yesterday.
Through the noise I disappear,
Yet somehow — I’m still here.

(solo)

Verse 2
Voices flicker through electric rain,
Memories coded, replayed again.
I was human — once, I think,
Now I breathe through data streams.

Pre-Chorus 2
Shadow faces, chrome and glass,
Time repeats — it never lasts.

Chorus 2
I’m the man who feels every day,
Falling forward, far away.
Through the current, I remain,
Half a soul in a digital chain.

(solo)

Bridge (triple build-up – Foxx style)
(1) Whispered synth arps rising –
I hear the code begin to pray.
(2) Mechanical drums, heartbeat fast –
No tomorrow, just decay.
(3) Bass drops like thunder –
I am gone, but here to stay.

Outro (cold, cinematic)
The man who dies…
The man who feels…
The man… who never fades away.

The Man Who Feels Every Day

Text:
Verse 1
They march through the ruins, mile after mile,
A city of shadows, a graveyard in style.
Every inch they’re taking is paid with blood,
But the map doesn’t change — it’s just mud over mud.

Pre-Chorus
And the whispers keep saying,
This cost is too high.
When the price of a victory
Is learning how to die.

Chorus
Why go all in for nothing,
Why burn your whole world down?
Why throw your people into fire
Just to claim a dying town?
If your gain is only ruins,
And your losses never end —
Then you’re not fighting for the future,
You’re fighting just to pretend.

(solo)

Verse 2
Steel meets the trenches, the winter hits hard,
Every soldier a number, another broken card.
They push and they push — but the ground doesn’t care,
It swallows the young in the cold, open air.

Pre-Chorus
And the mothers keep asking,
What’s the meaning of this war?
If the dream you’re chasing
Isn’t real anymore.

Chorus
Why go all in for nothing,
Why burn your whole world down?
Why throw your people into fire
Just to claim a dying town?
If your gain is only ruins,
And your losses never end —
Then you’re not fighting for the future,
You’re fighting just to pretend.

Bridge (spoken, soft)
When your strategy is bleeding,
And your logic’s running dry,
You don’t win by pushing harder —
You win by asking why.

(solo)

Final Chorus
Why go all in for nothing,
Why gamble lives away?
History won’t call it glory —
Just another wasted day.
If you trade your sons for rubble,
No banner can defend —
A war that costs the living
More than it ever had to spend.

Outro (spoken, cold, echoing):
Putin…
You’ve crossed the line where power becomes madness.
You’re tearing your own nation apart,
piece by piece,
life by life.

Stop sacrificing your people
for a war that gives nothing back.
Stop turning sons into shadows
for a dream no one believes in anymore.

Putin…
You seem lost in your own darkness.
Stop the bleeding.
Stop the lies.
Stop destroying the very people
you claim to defend.

All In for Nothing

Text:
Verse 1
You walked in like a storm
white shirt, open collar,
not trying to be pretty —
just trying to be true.
A poet with a pulse
beating louder than the drums,
you carved your name
into the concrete of every room.

Pre-Chorus
No glitter, no velvet crown,
just words like fire
and a voice that trembled
with the weight of what matters.

Chorus
Patti—
you turned noise into something holy,
you turned fear into a sharpened cry.
You gave every outsider a heartbeat,
you showed us how to live
without asking why.

(solo)

Verse 2
You weren’t a woman “in rock” —
you were rock itself.
A pilgrim with a notebook,
a prophet in denim.
You sang about bodies, sins,
visions, needles, angels,
and you didn’t bow
to anyone’s idea of what you should be.

Pre-Chorus
You said you’re just an amateur
of the whole wide universe,
yet every line you touched
felt carved from a cathedral.

Chorus
Patti—
you turned noise into something holy,
you turned silence into breath and bone.
You taught every lost kid with a pen
that they never had to stand alone.

Bridge
And somewhere in a broken room
a girl is still hearing “Horses”
for the first time,
feeling the world crack open
like a secret she finally deserves.
That’s your revolution, Patti.
Still burning.
Still alive.

(solo)

Final Chorus
Patti—
you turned noise into something holy,
you turned pain into a fearless hymn.
We honor you because you showed us
that truth begins
where posing ends.

Outro (spoken, Patti-style)
For every soul
that ever felt too raw,
too strange,
too wild for this world —
Patti held the door open.

Holy Noise – for Patti Smith

Text:
Strophe 1
Die Straßen hören Stimmen,
die klopfen laut an alte Türen.
Sie wollen wieder Opfer sehen,
wo Menschen nur existieren.
Wir stehen hier — nicht stumm, nicht klein,
in Rollstuhl, auf den Beinen — wir sind dabei.
Deine Angst wird ihr Motor,
doch Mut ist unser Geleit.

Refrain (Ohrwurm-Hook, gesungen)
Nicht mit uns, nicht hier, nicht jetzt – unser Herz schlägt, unser Blick setzt.
Nicht mit euch, nicht im Schatten – wir sind Licht, lassen Mauern platzen.

(solo)

Strophe 2
Ihr sagt: „wir zuerst“ und „wir allein“ –
doch kein Planet kennt Grenzen wie ihr.
Wir sind Gemeinschaft,
mit Zukunft, nicht eurem Erinnern.
Wenn ihr Mauern baut, brechen wir Türen,
wenn ihr Reden hält, gehören auch wir.
Wir lassen uns nicht fallen,
weil euer Hass uns nicht gefällt.

Refrain
Nicht mit uns, nicht hier, nicht jetzt – unser Herz schlägt, unser Blick setzt.
Nicht mit euch, nicht im Schatten – wir sind Licht, lassen Mauern platzen.

(solo)

Bridge (Rap-Flow, kürzer)
Angst ist nicht der Herrscher, Mut ist das Gesetz.
Wir lesen eigen Bücher, wir folgen keinem Netz.
Wir sind die Stimmen im Wind, die nicht verstummen –
wenn ihr laut rückt, dann stehen wir stumm und kommen.

Letzter Refrain (mit etwas Variation)
Nicht mit uns, nicht hier, nicht jetzt –
unsere Stimmen, unser Netz.
Nicht mit euch, nicht im Schatten –
wir sind Licht, lassen Mauern platzen.

Outro:
Nicht mit uns, niemals mit euch
Nein, Ihr bekommt uns nicht, 
ihr seid nicht unsere Alternative
Nicht mit uns

Nicht mit uns

Text:
[Verse]
Lights flash bright like a sunrise fight
Red carpet rolls under stars tonight
I’m a shadow in the scene a whisper in the frame
But my name's on the lips like a wildfire flame

[Prechorus]
Cameras spin hearts collide
On this reel where dreams reside

[Chorus]
I’m in a big movie
Living it unruly
Lines I’ve never spoken
Worlds I’ve left unbroken

(solo)

[Verse 2]
Plot twists dance like a thief in the night
Every look a spark every word ignites
I’m the hero I’m the flaw the untamed arc
Writing my story in the dark

[Bridge]
The credits roll but I’m still here
A thousand voices in my ear
I’m the action the cut the scene
A living dream in a silver sheen

(solo)

[Chorus]
I’m in a big movie
Living it unruly
Lines I’ve never spoken
Worlds I’ve left unbroken

Big Screen Dreams

Text:
(Intro — soft cosmic synth, distant pulses, echoing voices)
“In a universe so vast, why is it so quiet?”
“Maybe the silence is the answer.”

(Verse 1 — “Distances”)
Light runs faster than anything we know,
yet even light needs 8 minutes from the Sun to us.
Now imagine a star
8 years away,
80 years,
8,000 years.

Space isn’t empty —
it’s big.
Bigger than fear,
bigger than hope,
bigger than any ship we could ever build.
Civilizations may bloom
like brief cosmic sparks —
here, then gone,
alone in the dark.

(Pre-Chorus — “No Easy Meetings”)
Two minds,
two worlds,
two species
would have to align
across the ocean of time.

The math says:
possible
but
almost never at the same moment.

(Chorus — “When the Stars Stay Silent”)
When the stars stay silent,
maybe they’re too far to hear.
When the sky is empty,
maybe that’s the truth we fear.
But the beauty of this loneliness—
is that we made it here.
We made it… all on our own.

(solo)

(Verse 2 — “Humans Built Wonders”)
We carved stone when we had no steel.
We mapped the heavens before we had machines.
We raised pyramids, cities, stories,
not with starships —
with hands,
with minds,
with fire and patience.

Prä-Astronautik says
“Humans were too weak.”
But listen:
there is no alien metal,
no strange technology,
no lost machinery buried in the dust.

Just people.
And brilliance.
And time.

We do not need visitors
to explain our greatness.

(Bridge — “The Real Miracle”)
It is more miraculous
that we shaped our world with nothing
than that someone shaped it for us.

It is more beautiful
that we are the universe,
learning to understand itself.

That’s the real story.
That’s the one worth telling.

(solo)

(Chorus — “When the Stars Stay Silent”)
When the stars stay silent,
If nobody answers,
it doesn’t mean we’re alone.
It means the cosmos is wider
than our dreams have ever flown.
And still—here on this pale blue dot,
we built a home.

(Outro — Stephen Hawking’s Warning
In a calm, deep voice:)
“If aliens ever come,
they will not come as teachers.
They will come as survivors.”

A generation ship,
drifting for centuries,
running from a dying world,
searching for a new one.

(And Hawking said:)

“Pray they never find us.”

The universe is quiet
for a reason.

(Fade out…
soft synth…
heartbeat of a distant star.)

When the Stars Stay Silent

Text:
Intro (spoken/soft sung, warm, atmospheric pads)
**„We’ve made over sixteen hundred songs…
but this one matters in a different way.
Because we love this planet –
the only home we’ve ever known.

Every beat, every word,
is a reminder:
We don’t just live here…
we care.

And if millions take just one small step,
the Earth will feel it.
So here it is — our call,
our rhythm,
our light.“**

Verse 1 (Deutsch)
Stecker raus, ich hör’ die Erde leise sagen:
„Hey, wir können’s schaffen, müssen nur gemeinsam wagen.“
Licht aus, LED – du weißt, wie hell das geht,
und jeder kleine Funke zählt, bevor die Welt verweht.
Kühlschrank auf sieben, ja das reicht,
Gefrierfach abtauen – alles läuft gleich leicht.
Spül nur, wenn’s voll ist, koch mit Deckel drauf,
Weißt du wie viel Kraft du sparst? Addier’s mal auf.

Refrain (DE/EN – Ohrwurm)
„Save a little light – spar’ ein bisschen Licht!
Every little watt, every little bit.
Save a little light – spar’ ein bisschen Licht!
Wenn wir alle mitmach’n, wird die Zukunft wieder dicht.“

(„dicht“ = stark/robust, wie „solid“)

(solo)

Verse 2 (English)
Turn it off, turn it down, I hear the planet call,
„You can make a difference, even if it’s small.“
Smart home switching, heating’s running clean,
seven in the fridge – you know what I mean.
Low-flow shower, feel the power,
saving every day, hour by hour.
Track the load, find the ghost-consuming stuff,
You’ll see: saving energy is not that tough.

Refrain (DE/EN – Ohrwurm)
„Save a little light – spar’ ein bisschen Licht!
Every little watt, every little bit.
Save a little light – spar’ ein bisschen Licht!
Wenn wir alle mitmach’n, wird die Zukunft wieder dicht.“

(solo)

Bridge (Deutsch, gesprochen – catchy!)
Wir reden nicht – wir machen!
Wir sparen Watt für Watt.
Für unsere Kinder, für die Erde,
für die Zeit, die sie noch hat.
Egal wie klein dein Funke ist,
egal wie hell es bricht –
du machst die Welt ein bisschen heller,
mit jedem kleinen Licht.

Final Chorus (Mit extra Hook)
„Save a little light – spar’ ein bisschen Licht!
Come on everybody, this is how we fix it.
Save a little light – spar’ ein bisschen Licht!
Kleiner Schritt für dich – für die Welt ein großes Gift.“

Outro:
Dieser Song hier ist  wichtig für uns.
Wir wollen die Erde unbedingt erhalten

Denn wir lieben diesen Planeten –
das einzige Zuhause, das wir je kannten.

Save a Little Light (Spar’ ein bisschen Licht)

Text:
[Verse 1]
Sand whispers ancient numbers,
carved in lines of silent gold.
Echoes rise like distant thunder,
from the stories never told.
A question sleeps beneath the surface,
a pulse beneath the stone…
Are we the dream of something larger,
or shadows searching for a home?

[Pre-Chorus]
And every star above
feels closer when we breathe—
a map of faith and geometry
that only night can read.

[Chorus]
In the shadows of the pyramid,
we’re standing in a beam of time.
Every heartbeat, every whispered truth
aligns us with the cosmic line.
In the shadows of the pyramid,
our voices rise in subtle waves—
the light we carry in our hands
is older than the world we save.

(solo)

[Verse 2]
The air trembles with a secret,
circling slowly through the dust.
Even stone remembers moments
when the sky learned how to trust.
A thousand mirrors chase our questions,
bending answers back to light—
and somewhere in the empty spaces
the future curls its wings for flight.

[Pre-Chorus]
And when the silence calls,
we hear the universe exhale—
a quiet code of destiny
unfolding like a veil.

[Chorus]
In the shadows of the pyramid,
we’re standing in a beam of time.
Every heartbeat, every whispered truth
aligns us with the cosmic line.
In the shadows of the pyramid,
our voices rise in subtle waves—
the light we carry in our hands
is older than the world we save.

(solo)

[Bridge – spoken, soft, atmospheric]
Listen…
even the darkness is a teacher.
Even the emptiness has shape.
We are the travelers and the treasure—
the question and the escape…

[Final Chorus]
In the shadows of the pyramid,
we lift the night like open doors.
Every step becomes a signal
sent across the desert floors.
And the shadows of the pyramid
are guiding us through space and sound—
for every secret of the stars
is waiting deep within the ground.

In the Shadows of the Pyramid

Text:
[Verse 1]
He walks in neon shadows,
a plastic crown, a kingdom of lies.
The TV paints him holy,
but you can see the hunger in his eyes.
He builds his throne on whispers,
on fear he turns to gold—
a prophet of the shallow,
a coward painted bold.

[Pre-Chorus]
And the people kneel like statues
to the noise he calls truth—
but truth is not a weapon,
and lies don’t save your youth.

[Chorus]
Hey, orange tyrant,
your empire’s made of sand.
You twist the words of children
with your tiny shaking hands.
Hey, fallen idol,
your kingdom starts to bleed—
’cause justice isn’t blinded,
she knows what wolves still feed.

(solo)

[Verse 2]
He claims he is the chosen,
he claims he is the light—
but saints don’t beg for worship,
and heroes do not bite.
A carnival of lunatics
spins wildly at his feet—
he calls the darkness “freedom,”
but freedom tastes like heat.

[Pre-Chorus]
And the choir of the powerless
is rising like a flame—
their voices cut the silence
and burn away his name.

[Chorus]
Hey, orange tyrant,
your empire’s made of sand.
You twist the words of children
with your tiny shaking hands.
Hey, fallen idol,
your kingdom starts to bleed—
’cause justice isn’t blinded,
she knows what wolves still feed.

(solo)

[Bridge – spoken, in Patti-Smith-style incantation]
I see the mothers trembling,
I see the daughters rise.
I see the sons grow angry
at the poison in your eyes.
And I swear upon the ashes
of every broken dream—
we’ll tear your throne to pieces
and wash this land clean.

[Final Chorus]
Hey, orange tyrant,
your hourglass is done.
You cannot cage a nation—
you cannot stop the sun.
Hey, fading phantom,
your shadow starts to fall—
’cause a truth that’s born in fire
will outlive every wall.

[Outro – furious, spoken, raw]  
And hear me now, Trump—  
we’ve learned about your connection to Epstein.  
The shadows crawl, the names are written,  
the island winds still howl in chains.  

Woe betide us  
if we ever learn you were involved.  
Tell us—  
did you participate?  
Or do you hide behind the graves  
of the stories you deny?

The world is watching,  
the sky is narrowing,  
and history—  
history never forgets.
