MARIPOSA DE ALAS BLANCAS

Entraste en mi vida por sorpresa
con un beso que encendió mi rostro:
me convertí de pronto en tu presa
que acabaron de abatir tus ojos.

Buscaste el apoyo de mi brazo
como si lo hubieras hecho siempre:
compréndelo, pero en esos años,
no eras la moneda más corriente.

Estribillo

Mariposa de alas blancas
que vas sembrando en tu vuelo
la ternura y el consuelo
que a tu corazón le faltan
sin que apenas te des cuenta:
que Dios te otorgue la suerte
y el cariño suficiente
para cuando estés de vuelta.

Mariposa de alas blancas
que confiada recorres
el jardín lleno de flores
sin pensar en que una trampa
puede anidar tras su aroma:
desconfía de tu sombra
y de quien mucho te nombra
cuando vuelas viento en popa.

----------

Te advierto, y no quiero ser profeta,
que muchos no entenderán tu afecto:
tu corazón te ha de dar problemas
en un mundo tan cruel e infecto.

Escucha a este lobo solitario
porque necesita de tu aliento:
quiero matar ante ti el presagio
de que estoy cantando en el desierto.

Estribillo

BUTTERFLY WITH WHITE WINGS (For Aurora)

You came into my life by surprise
with a kiss that lit my face:
I suddenly became your prey
that have just cast your eyes.

You sought the support of my arm
as if you've always done it:
understand it, but in those years,
you were not the most common currency.

Chorus

White winged butterfly
what are you sowing on your flight
tenderness and consolation
that your heart is missing
without you hardly noticing:
may God grant you luck
and enough love
for when you're back.

White winged butterfly
how confidently you walk
the garden full of flowers
without thinking that a trap
can nest behind its scent:
distrust your shadow
and of whom many names you
when you fly smooth sailing.

----------

I warn you, and I don't want to be a prophet,
that many will not understand your affection:
your heart will give you problems
In a world so cruel and infected

Listen to this lone wolf
because it needs your encouragement:
I want to kill the omen before you
that I'm singing in the desert.

Form in Rhythm Remix 1 (remixed by Tim Hopkins)

C-Cyphers

Introduction and Lyrics in English

This song was inspired by the images of war that I have been increasingly confronted with on the internet, television, and social media in recent years.
The verses are an attempt to translate the sometimes unspeakable horror of brutally extinguished lives and destroyed houses and cities into pictorial, metaphorical language.
The chorus expresses the longing to stop this creeping wave of destruction and counter it with a profound world peace. A world peace that will lead stray souls, who are currently being seduced by right-wing populist and ultimately warmongering slogans, to return to their true loving, deeply humanistic core selves.
Since the entire song is a kind of desperate plea for more love for oneself and others, I chose Picasso's famous painting “The Supplicant” as song-cover.

To Rest in Peace

Eyes run with pus
A freshly wilted bouquet of flowers
Bridges are broken
Rainbows are grey
A man cries
Before his wife's corpse

Glasses without stems and without shine
A shadow invites you to dance with death
A bed stands crooked and askew
Because it ran in circles
The shop door
With the inscription ‘No one here’

Inside, it's seething
Everything wants to burst
Rabies has taken hold of my soul
The river of balm fights its way through the narrowness
Perhaps it will take away this curse of haste

I'd like to lie down for a while
To Rest in Peace
Who will give me the liberating blessing
To rest in peace
To rest in peace

Chocolate runs into the stairwell
The fairy tale is about to end
Red mushrooms give us the last poison
A sarcophagus is shipped anonymously

Horses can no longer find their way
A lizard man steps up to swear an oath of truth
Prayers are said on combs
Bubbles burst
Urinary retention
Now takes its course

My senses are shattered
A thousand ears
My eyes are flooded
Glaring light
Can't smell
Nostrils beaten black and blue
My tongue swells from the fresh cactus sting

I want to lie down for a while
To Rest in Peace
Who will give me the liberating blessing
To rest in peace
To rest in peace

In peace
In peace
In peace
In peace
In peace

Deutscher Originaltext

To Rest in Peace

Augen laufen eiternd aus
Ein frischverwelkter Blumenstrauß
Brücken sind zerbrochen
Regenbögen grau
Ein Mann weint
Vor der Leiche seiner Frau

Gläser ohne Stiel und ohne Glanz
Ein Schatten lädt zum Totentanz
Ein Bett steht krumm und schief
Weil es im Kreise lief
Die Ladentür
Mit Aufschrift "Niemand hier"

Im Innern brodelts
Alles will zerspringen
Die Tollwut hat meinen Seelenhain erfasst
Der Balsamfluss kämpft sich durch die Enge
Vielleicht nimmt er mir diesen Fluch zur Hast

Möchte mich ein wenig hinlegen
To Rest in Peace
Wer gibt mir den befreienden Segen
To Rest in Peace
To Rest in Peace

Schokolade läuft ins Treppenhaus
Das Märchen steht kurz vor dem Aus
Rote Pilze schenken uns das letzte Gift
Ein Sarkophag wird anonym verschifft

Pferde kommen nicht mehr in die Spur
Ein Echsenmensch tritt an zum Wahrheitsschwur
Auf Kämmen wird gebetet
Blasen springen auf
Die Harnverhaltung
Nimmt jetzt ihren Lauf

Meine Sinne sind geborsten
Tausend Ohren
Meine Augen sind geflutet
Greller Schein
Kann nicht riechen
Nasenflügel windelweich geprügelt
Mein Zunge schwillt vom frischen Kaktusstich

Möchte mich ein wenig hinlegen
To Rest in Peace
Wer gibt mir den befreienden Segen
To Rest in Peace
To Rest in Peace

In Peace
In Peace
In Peace
In Peace
In Peace

To Rest in Peace

This a remix of the first tune I uploaded on Soundcloud, and greatly enhanced with lyrics and vocal from SolarRae.

Darklight (Remix, SolarRae vocals and Lyrics 2025)

This track is entirely based on a loop of my own sax, played 6 years ago .....;
it felt like the rhythm and feel of this lick was worth it :-)
I created someting completely new out of it with a fresh soprano jam on top :-)

Verse 1  
Think twice before you raise your voice,  
Before you make that choice.  
Think twice before your fist takes aim,  
Your cruelty won’t win this game.  
Think before you speak that twisted line,  
Manipulating hearts, controlling minds.  
Think twice unless you want to pay,  
Locked away for crimes you inflict each and every single day.  

Chorus  
Hey you cowards think twice,  
Before you cross that violent line.  
Violence is a coward’s act,  
Your mask will crack, justice fights back.  
The truth will never fade away,  
It will remain as power no matter what you do or say.  
Think twice before aggression shows,  
Make sure respect and love shows.  

Verse 2  
Think twice before you shame my name,  
Sadistic tricks won’t win your game.  
Think twice before coercion bites,  
Your darkness won’t dim my light.  
Every shove, every scream, every scar,  
Exposes the coward you truly are.  
Think twice the world will see,  
Justice rises, you won’t break me.  

Verse 3  Bridge  
Every form of abuse is a crime,  
There will come a day you’ll pay in time.  
Think twice, cowards, you’re being reported,  
By voices united, by all who’ve supported.  
The world is watching, your power is gone,  
Your grip is broken, your control withdrawn.  
Cowards fall when the truth is near,  
Justice is rising, your end is clear.  
Real men love, protect, and defend,  
Not abuse, not harm, not pretend.  
You’re nothing but cowards in a man’s disguise,  
Stripped of your power exposed by your lies.  

Final Chorus 
Hey you cowards think twice,  
Before you cross that violent line.  
Domestic violence is a coward’s act,  
Your mask will crack, justice fights back.  
The truth will never fade away,  
It will remain as power no matter what you do or say.  
Think twice before aggression shows,  
Make sure respect and love shows.  

Echo Repeat  
Hey you cowards think twice… think twice…  
Your mask will crack, justice fights back… back…  
You can’t run, you can’t hide… hide…  
The truth comes out, exposing your lies and actions… actions…  
It will remain as power no matter what you do or say… say…  
We stand strong, united together always… always…  
If you see it, hear it, report it  courage and kindness ignite… ignite…  
My song will make a difference, bringing hope, ending a domestic fight… fight…  
I will always stand up for what’s right… right…

Think Twice

Think Twice Domestic Violence Anthem.

Lyrics English:
Ohhh, for you, Suniii, Mariaaa my love, I hope you're happy, because I never was, so much time has passed, but not my feelings, the last time I saw you, I thought I would die, in the end I only said goodbye with a fake smile, too much darkness for such a pure heart, if I'm far away it's because I love you, I'll give you affection in my dreams, I'll never forget your warmth, goodbye love, goodbye love.

MARIA

Deutscher Singer-Songwriter über fünfzig Jahre alt. Seit fast vierzig Jahren schreibe und singe ich Lieder. Mein Hauptinstrument ist die akustische Gitarre, aber ich mag auch Perkussionsinstrumente (Cajon, Maracas, Gurio). Ich liebe es, melancholische und poetische Balladen zu komponieren. Aber manchmal schreibe ich auch (schwarze) humorvolle Songs, Jazzstyle und -Rocksongs. Meine Hauptsprache ist Deutsch. Aber in Zukunft will ich mehr Songs auf Englisch und vereinzelt auch Französisch schreiben.
In meinen Kompositionen bin ich inspiriert von Leonard Cohen, John Lennon, Jacques Brel, Van Morrison und Bob Dylan. Auf meinen Platten spiele und singe ich alles alleine. Meine Vision für die Zukunft ist es, Musiker aus verschiedenen Kulturen zu finden, die gerne ihre Tracks mit mir teilen wollen.
Mein persönliches Mantra ist ein Satz, der von Paul Mccartney auf dem Beatles-Album "Abbey Road auf dem Track "In the end" vor fast Fünfzig Jahren geschrieben wurde:

Die Liebe, die Du bekommst ist gleich der Liebe, die Du gibst.

German singer-songwriter over fifty years old. For almost forty years I have been writing and singing songs. My main instrument is the acoustic guitar, but I also like percussion instruments (Cajon, Maracas, Gurio). I love composing melancholic and poetic ballads. But sometimes I also write (black) humorous songs, jazz style and rock songs. My main language is German. But in the future I want to write more songs in English and occasionally also in French.
In my compositions I am inspired by Leonard Cohen, John Lennon, Jacques Brel, Van Morrison and Bob Dylan. On my records I play and sing all by myself. My vision for the future is to find musicians from different cultures who would like to share their tracks with me.
My personal mantra is a sentence written by Paul Mccartney on the Beatles album "Abbey Road on the track "In the end" almost fifty years ago:

The love you take is equal to the love you make.

To Rest in Peace
