SILVER STREAMS Oh, what a feeling The sky is almost falling I stepped into the sea To see the beauty inside Oh how I am shining Smiling while I'm diving Deep into the Light Your waters are carrying me Your waters are carrying me… And I'll surrender I will float in this joy Joyful sparkling Of my silver streams I will surrender, I will lose myself here In this feeling Of my silver waters Oh, how I am shining smiling while I'm diving Deep into the Light Your waters are carrying me Your waters are carrying me… And I will soar I will leave my eyes closed Living my dream I could disappear In this Joy Heaven is right here around me I am diving In my silver waters I will surrender  I will float in this joy Joyful sparkling Of my silver streams I will surrender I will lose myself here In this feeling Of my silver waters Oh what a feeling The sky is almost falling I stepped into the sea To see the beauty inside To see the beauty inside And everywhere around…

Crater 02:57
CRATER I am a stranger Eternal visitor Welcoming darkness Sinking, smiling, missing floor Hiding the face Facing the truth The sleep is broken And tears are stuck in my throat The street is forbidden now There are unseen forces The pain is spread like wet white sheets We're made to reset! Are you sure you can judge my heart? You're bitter, small, hurt, sad and drunk The inner becomes the outer And I'm the one who's in between What do we seek? Where do we go? What do we choose? To become our goal? There's one brother less in this mess He has crossed, crossed, crossed the road The crossroad All we have is borrowed I am a stranger Eternal visitor Forever in between Connecting incompatible What do we seek? (Aimlessly walking) Where do we go? (Darkness welcoming) What do we choose? To become our goal? 'Cause when you die It creates a hole

SONG FOR BRIAN Hello long lost friend, how are you feeling? Somehow i can't recall how many sunsets ago I saw you, the last time I saw you I remember you were talking so fast Excusing it with the New York streets stress They say you've changed but so have I Wondering who you are and who have I become? I'm a little afraid this is happening again No we won't find the time, enough time to talk And so I wrote this song, when i was thinking of seeing you again Don't you know you've put some clear signs on my road but I'm still so unsure which way to go Too many mirrors cripple my joy and where is the urge for speaking when listeners have gone? They say you've changed but so have i wondering who you are and will you like who I've become? 'cause I'm lost and found every second of my life But I'm still loving, loving being alive

Cold 03:47
COLD /:The sound of a breaking heart is louder than a storm 'Cause it seems it's never gonna go:/ It felt like a magic, miraculous magic But you turn the page and it's forever gone Suddenly nobody cares, nobody calls, Nobody tells you what to do I'm in this cold, cold, cold room Filled up with cold words Cold, cold, cold, cold words Suddenly I know I lost my way The sound of a breaking heart is louder than a storm 'Cause it seems it's never ever gonna go The rain keeps falling on the window panes Oh Lord, how my heart aches! And this pain controls your breath And when you lose your breath you've lost control The pain controls your breath And when you lose your breath You've lost control And suddenly nobody cares, Nobody calls Nobody says what you should do Your heart keeps aching in your loneliness And you know that only time might help And this pain controls your breath And when you lose your breath you've lost control The pain controls your breath And when you lose your breath You can hear your heart When you lose your breath You feel how alone you are When you lose your breath You can taste your tears When you lose your breath You know you've lost control In this dark and empty room Filled up with cold words Cold, cold, cold, cold words Suddenly you know you've lost your breath You know you've lost your Love You know you've lost your dreams

MISUNDERSTANDING Misunderstanding Ruins what we've been building Always here on time Never leaves you in a doubt That you are messing up your life You are one of a few Who sees my complexity through Make me simplified Stop my thoughts Work it all out and Say you'll remain a friend of mine Misunderstanding Comes in with no creeping Always here suddenly Face it, place it, mix it, fix it There's no worry Please don't take it personally I am am the one of a few Who's nice and who hates to argue Make me simplified Stop my confused thoughts And work it all out and Don't let me panic  Misunderstanding Kills what we've been building Friendship based on fragile trust Human respect not gone rust!

INVISIBLE BLOOD All the flowers rise The Sun and laughter fill the streets All the waters rush down And so do my tears My heart is bleeding for you I can't believe his words are true Shaken broken heart, shake it once more Torn and chewed and mine - confuse it again Bitterness helps no more I'm getting naked to the bone My heart is bleeding for you Still can't believe his thoughts are true My heart is beating, beating you We shed our skins to get renewed ...what is the cost of loving you?

And Fly! 03:06
AND FLY! So good to see you! It's been a long time Tt feels so nice, so nice, so nice! You have the right words To show me I'm free eventually Free from the cage that I built The one that I kept myself in For so many nights Silenced with the pain inside All the pigeons in the sky Show me what to do right now Their wings spread like arms full of love So straighten up and aim high Take off into your life and fly! So good to know you Hard to let you go It's all so nice, so nice, so nice You have the right ways To make me see All the children that I meet Show me I don't need to be Afraid of living and loving and giving So straighten up and aim high Take off into your life and fly!

My Wind 03:12
MY WIND Do you still ask all the autumn trees? Do you still fly with the wind? Have you heard the secrets of the earth, soil and rain? What about the naked dance? Stone bridge and our hidden place? Spheres that once have caught your heart And I believe they hold it still Firmly and without a compromise You've got to walk your way Don't fear the dark Don't be afraid of the river 'Cause you carry the light You carry the light! Life ain't an easy fairy tale Unless you kill your deepest dreams Have no fear the wind is still here Taking you upon the hill Where you can talk to the Sun Touch its rays and get revived Don't fear the dark Don't be afraid of the river 'Cause you carry the light You carry the light! Don't fear the dark Don't be afraid of the river 'Cause you carry the light You carry the light!

CHASM 03:14
CHASM In this starless night I am looking at your sea Through my light I can see this thing Coming between You and me I can see its depth I can feel its thread There is a chasm comin'in Just two friends Divided by time and distance Just two friends Further than far away Like when lightning breaks the sky And you’re waiting For the sound of thunder I can see this threat I can feel its depth There is a chasm cutting ties Why this chasm? Why? Why this chasm? Every time the sharing stops Our bridges burn It’s like a dream Shadow follows every light We’re giving up So it seems I can smell this depth I can feel its threat There is a chasm cutting ties Why this chasm? Why? Why this chasm? Every time the sharing stops … (Your ocean is way too different from mine)

Silver Moon 04:36
SILVER MOON Good-bye my silver moon Gonna miss your shape Smiling across the Tai Pei night Gonna miss it sooner than I would guess There's a place where the skies wear the colour of red And the yellow star is a pentagram And the yellow star is a pentagram Scaring the blood in my veins… Show me all your images and feelings How far are they different from mine? We're passing the same worlds and we're speechless but is your picture like mine? No i won't ever understand How come that planes can really fly Heavier than feather than a grain of dust This metal creature can't be alive Flying over again, shifting time Diving into the clouds, meeting the Sun Flying over again, changing scenes Diding into the clouds, we're caught up in our dreams One more secret is left unrevealed One more memory's holding it's breath back Waiting for my heart to become present At this moment it is somehow still laid back Show me all your images and feelings How far are they different from mine? We're passing the same worlds and we're speechless but is your picture like mine? Flying over again, shifting time Diving into the clouds, meeting the Sun Flying over again, changing scenes Hiding into the clouds, we're caught up in our dreams

Closer 03:30
CLOSER Please get closer to my soul Say nothing to me at all Please, be here with me When talking I want to talk to you When breathing I try to keep your rhythm When walking I want to walk next to you Before sleeping I search for You Don't know if I see you again Don't know if there's a need for that Please, be here with me Get closer to my soul Say nothing to me at all
