Nachdem ich einmal den Bass eines Freundes in der Hand hatte, wollte ich auch so ein Instrument spielen. Das war doch etwas anderes als Flöte, die ich in der Schule gelernt hatte. Gesagt, getan: Günstig einen Squier Bullet Bass mitsamst Verstärker und Ständer erstanden und schon konnte es losgehen.
Zuerst studierte ich allein ein paar Songs ein, später spielte ich dann mit Dan "DKS", dem Marodeur zusammen. Auf seinem Keyboard konnte Dan die Melodie und alle anderen benötigten Instrumente spielen - in Ermangelung eines Schlagzeugs war das nicht unpraktisch. Nach einer Weile stieß dann Muntz, der große Manzator, mit seiner Gitarre zu uns, und "Die Band" war gegründet. Unser Repertoir umfasste Rock-Klassiker, Grunge, Metal, Pop-Songs, 80er Jahre, Queen, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Metallica, Eminem u.a.
Aufgrund von Dans Studienstress und Muntzens Exil in Neuseeland verlief sich "Die Band" leider bald wieder im Sande. Zur Zeit lerne ich noch Synthesizer und hoffe, dass ich irgendwann mal richtig spielen kann.
Zur Abwechslung wird auch mal der Computer strapaziert, um Musik zu machen und Tonträger zu produzieren. Dabei herausgekommen ist das Projekt 2Funny4. Nebenbei texte ich aber auch Songs, vor allem wenn mich ein Thema tief bewegt oder ich einfach meine Gedanken und Gefühle zu "Papier" bringen muss. Vielleicht werden sie ja auch mal vertont.
Ein Höhepunkt war GoGospel 2003 in der Chemnitzer Stadthalle. Ein Chor von knapp 1700 Sängern stößt zwar schon fast an die Grenze des machbaren, aber es klingt einfach gewaltig, vor allem, wenn man selber mittendrin steht! Und weils so schön war, war ich 2004 in Fellbach bei Stuttgart und 2005 in Chemnitz wieder mit dabei.
Außerdem hab ich noch den Traum, mal ein Musical oder was in der Art zu machen. Hab schon versucht, mit der ESG Chemnitz das Projekt ESGapology auf die Beine zu stellen, hat aber leider, vor allem aus Zeitgründen, nicht geklappt.

Seeing you the first time I hardly noticed you Only one of many faces Just a part of the crowd Later we became friends Well we got along Did many things together ... That was fun BRIDGE: But when I came to realize That I had fallen in love I knew... CHORUS: Life can be so hard Love can break your heart How can life be so unfair To make you love someone Who doesn't share Your feelings... |
Now I'm thinking of you Every night and every day This heartache is unbearable I wished you could take it away BRIDGE: Every time I see you I wanna hold you in my arms Touch your face and kiss your lips You stole my heart, broke it And teared it all apart I know... CHORUS: Life can be so hard Love can break your heart How can life be so unfair To make you love someone Who doesn't share Your feelings... REPEAT CHORUS |

Bent people wander 'round outside Rarely they're looking up And then see all the many lights Behind the windows, and inside... CHORUS: Another hope, another fear Another cry we do not hear Another fate they do not show Tell me why is this so... They don't care about each other Only seeing their own life Ain't listening to one another Much too fast take into strife |
CHORUS They are slaughtering each other People dying everywhere We are killing one another And destroy the world we should preserve CHORUS Cruelty instead of aid Hate instead of love War instead of peace Hell instead of paradise CHORUS Tell me why is this so... |

Wir sitzen im Zug, uns gegenüber Blättern im Programmheft, planen Wer konnte es denn da schon ahnen... Plötzlich lachst du, nur worüber? CHORUS: Ich stehe neben mir, wegen dir Frag, warum lachst du, und Schon kommt es aus deinem Mund Lachen ist gesund! So viele Menschen, alles kommt zum Erliegen Be free, feel the Power of Love - sei frei Du umarmst mich und wir fliegen Mit zwei Flügeln, überall vorbei CHORUS You are my Angel und so (im)perfekt Trotz Familienberatung schon zu frühen Zeiten Gibt es immer neue Seiten Die man erst nach und nach entdeckt |
CHORUS Du sagst Kuckuck! Ich sag Hai! Und hoffe, das geht nie vorbei Dass uns das Lachen immer bleibt Und uns einfach nichts entzweit CHORUS Steht doch mal etwas zwischen uns Another brick in the wall Dann hol ich dich mit dem Traktor ab Der bringt die Mauer leicht zu Fall CHORUS Stehst du auch neben dir, wegen mir? Denkst zu viel nach, kaum Lachen noch aus deinem Mund Sei einfach frei, leb jetzt und hier Und denk dran: Lachen ist gesund! |

Gehst du mit offnen Augen durch die Welt Entdeckst du viele wunderbare Sachen Es gibt so viel Schönes hier Manchmal zum Weinen, manchmal zum Lachen Ein Lächeln kann so viel bewirken Ein freundlicher Blick, Aufmunterung Schlechtes ist dann schnell vergessen Und du gewinnst bald neuen Schwung CHORUS Habt Vertrauen ineinander Vertraut auf diese Welt Lasst Stress und Ärger hinter euch Dann ist's bald wieder besser um uns bestellt Diese Welt, sie ist so schön Dieser Planet, er ist ein Traum Hier können wir alle glücklich sein Wenn wir nur darauf vertraun |

Met you by surprise, I didn't realize That my life would change forever Saw you standing there I didn't know I cared There was something special in the air. Dreams are my reality The only kind of real fantasy Illusions are a common thing I try to live in dreams It seems as if it's meant to be.

Hey ho, komm sag, wie geht's dir so Wir haben uns lange nicht gesehn Was macht dein Leben, geht's dir gut? Kannst du die Welt denn noch verstehn? Verstehn, mit der Welt Umzugehn, das was zählt Einzusehn, was dich hält. Doch nicht zu fest, denn du musst Weitergehn, ohne Lust Zurückzusehn, ohne Frust Vorwärtssehn. Jo Mann, was geht, mir geht es gut Gefunden hab ich meinen Platz im Leben Nicht unverdient, denn voller Mut Hab ich geschuftet, ohne aufzugeben. |
Aufgeben? Mit der Welt Aufleben, das was zählt Erleben, was dich hält. Doch nicht nur das, denn du darfst Weitergehn, um auf Mond und Mars Zurückzusehn, to the Stars Vorwärtssehn. Oh no, nur geschuftet den ganzen Tag Sorry, wenn ich dich so direkt frag Doch ist das alles, was du aus deinem Leben Gemacht hast, ohne echt zu leben? Doch was vollbracht, was hast du erreicht? Ein Leben auf dem Sofa, alles streng geeicht Der Dämon der Zufriedenheit, der um dich schleicht Es passiert viel zu leicht, dass er sich rächt Hab gelebt, doch gehts mir schlecht Der Dämon sitzt in meinem Nacken Er rächt sich, frisst mich, hab alles erreicht Doch bin nicht zufrieden, mein Leben ist vorbei Du hast gelebt, ich lebe jetzt Zusammen... |

Ich komme oft bei dir vorbei Finde einen Grund Ganz oft ganz nah bei dir zu sein Doch niemals nah genug Ich trau mich nicht, mit dir zu reden Dazu fehlt mir etwas der Mut Ich renne nur davon, nur 2 Sekunden Und es wär vielleicht passiert Wenn ich dich anschau, zitter ich Meine Hände feucht und ich nervös Ich stotter nur noch hin vor mich Aber du, du lächelst freundlich Ich trau mich nicht, dich zu fragen Dazu fehlt mir etwas der Mut Ich renne nur davon, nur 2 Sekunden Und es wär vielleicht passiert Wenn ich dich anschau, wird mir schwindlig Denn ich schaue viel zu lang In deine Augen, in dein Lächeln So kann das doch nicht weitergehn |
Eines Abends nehm ichs mir dann vor Dir alles zu sagen, alles zu erklärn Doch es geht nicht, denn du bist nicht allein Und ich renn wieder mal davon Doch diesmal komm ich wieder Aber du bist nicht mehr da Ich klemm einen Zettel dir ans Auto Mein Herz pocht, rufst du an? Mitten in der Nacht wach ich dann auf Das Handy piept, ne SMS von dir Und du meinst, ich soll dir nicht böse sein Denn du kannst nicht Ich kann nicht mehr schlafen Und du kannst nicht Hab es mir so sehr gewünscht Doch du kannst nicht Ich habe mir, habe mich getraut Du kannst es nicht |

I don't know how comes That everybody hurts you I can't understand why anybody Would be mean to you You are so pretty and kind Lovely and ever-so-sweet I didn't want to break your heart but It still happened that way I wanted to be your friend I can't be anything more You've been hoping for something I simply cannot give |
But one day you will find What you are longing for You will meet the love of your life and Be happy forever more I still want to be your friend Cause I really do like you Someone who listens and someone to talk to That's what friends are for If you may ever need Someone who listens to you Someone to give you a hug, when you need it I will be there for you |

To The Boy Wearing Sunglasses At Night | x | |

There was a boy A very strange enchanted boy They say he wandered very far, very far Over regions and sims A little shy and sad of eye An awesome voice had he And then one day A magic day he passed my way It was a pure coincidence That we met In Ahern... Never knew I could feel like this Like I've never seen the Skye before The greatest thing I'll ever learned Is just to sing and be loved in return Listen to my heart, can you hear it screams: "Come to rescue me and set me free" Seasons may change, winter to spring But I wait here for you to rescue me Come what may Come what may I am burning, so come and rescue me |
Suddenly the world seemed such a perfect place Suddenly it moved with such a perfect grace Suddenly my life didn't seem such a waste You've been my inspiration And there was no mountain too high, no river too wide I sing this song and hope you'll be here by my side Storm clouds may gather and stars may collide But I wait here until the end of time Come what may Come what may I am burning, so come and rescue me The walls are coming closer My senses fade away I'm haunted by your shadow I reach to see your face You're not here... Are you here? Come and rescue me, I'm burning, can't you see? Come and rescue me, only you can set me free Komm und rette mich, ich verbrenne innerlich Komm und rette mich, ich schaff's nicht ohne dich Komm und rette mich, dich und mich, rette mich |

The Tragic Tale (Of The Beauty, The Good And The Black) | x | |
---|---|---|
A sad drama unfolds This is the tragic tale Of The Beauty, The Good and The Black He always did this on his own He wandered round the land and sea And always was alone And on their lips they wore a constant smile They danced and laughed, explored the world Enjoyed their time and started getting close
Was how they understood Shared mind and soul, so wonderful The Beauty and The Good But shadows cast upon it all Their claws extended, reaching out Freedom was so wanted, but The consequences not Black on the outside, but really warm at heart Comforting, cared, but never dared To ask for more, although he so much wished
The earth shaked when two hurt souls met The wind blew and the windmill creaked The rain fell and the crows, they shrieked Their love was born out of this sadness So wonderful, yet full of madness Madly happy, madly sad The Beauty and The Black And his heart was so much hurt as well Had lost The Beauty, so he thought The anger rose and bad things, they were said |
The Black got mad, much fear he had To lose The Beauty and again be back To loneliness, all on his own And all alone, return to be the loner Black
Was torn apart and ripped to dust Shredded, wounded, almost killed Becoming ugly, his beauty lost Black and Beauty broke apart And shattered pieces of their love Were spread around, lay at the ground Cut everyone that got too close To comfort him, but all the time The shadows stayed and strangled hearts All three of them, of Beauty, Good and Black
A song was played that quite never ended Oh, could it have stayed like that forever Never-ending... Still very fragile, a terrible mistake Almost destroyed it once and forever But fighting and friendship helped to get love back For The Beauty and The Black Lost The Beauty he had just got back And then The Black, he still was mad Everything went back to bad All three have lost, their love, but most Their friendship gone, they are again alone All on their own, the world they roam That's love and too much freedom's cost

Black and Beauty Both so sad The earth shaked when Two hurt souls met Born out of this sadness Was a relationship So wonderful, so beautiful But also full of madness Madly happy, madly sad The Beauty and The Black The Good got bad For he was sad And hurt as well Had lost The Beauty So he thought And said The Black got mad Much fear he had To lose The Beauty And be back To loneliness The loner Black The Beauty in the middle Standing in between Torn apart and ripped to pieces Shredded, wounded, almost killed Becoming ugly, beauty lost Love and freedom's cost Black and Beauty broke apart Shattered pieces of their love Lying all around At the ground Cutting everyone That got too close |
The Good was there At Beauty's side To comfort him But all the time The shadows stayed And strangled hearts All three of them Of Beauty, Good, and Black Then shadows faded Slowly just A song was played That quite never ended Oh, could it have stayed Like that Forever Never-ending Still very fragile A terrible mistake Almost destroyed it all But fighting and a friend Helped to get love back For The Beauty and The Black The Good was sad Again he had Lost The Beauty And The Black Still was mad Everything went back to bad All three have lost Their love, but most Their friendship gone Again alone And they all lived sadly ever after... |

You met a Shui - and survived | x | |

Yasuka's where our avies met Mig's place brought us together That's where we often talked and sat And that dance I never will forget You soon got a place in my heart And I happily became your partner So well our thoughts and feelings match You are such a perfect catch You bear my moods and call me muppet You inspire me to try new things To be creative and not someone's puppet Forget the past and spread my wings We met in London, Waterloo Dined in Soho with great views Saw a police box which was blue And some funny buckets, too There was an awful lot of walking We got huge blisters on our feet But also some fantastic talking It was so wonderful to meet |
Later diving in your pond Enjoying meals that you prepared Basil mentioned the war once But I think he got away with it Chasing trains and catching them Opening locks and minds on the canals Drinking tea and eating scones Someone had lost big building stones Last evening: Loitering at the beach Just like we did so often here Sit in the sand, watching the waves Fish for us, chips for the gulls We knew it was time to leave But trying to see the positive One final hug, a train, a plane And now we are back here again All that is left for me to say It's time now to receive your praise For what you bravely have achieved: You met a Shui - and survived ^^ |

I never knew someone like you So full of loyalty and care Truthful, honest, a true friend Deserving trust like no one else But people messing with your life Destroy the slightest sign of happiness Demanding, often hurting you and still You never stop caring for them I want to hold you all the time Keep you close when you feel miserable But sometimes you seem so far away Then I just should let you go I know you won't just run away You don't need to be controlled But understanding and support I don't doubt you will come back |
You just need to let your anger out Fight the ghosts that haunt you With swords and magic spells Killing the monsters in your life Or simply have some time on your own Lying in the grass, watching the sky Just the sounds of birds and wind And waves crashing at the shore Please don't fear the future It might lie unknown on the road ahead But when you expect it least There are better days to come |

I didn't want the world as it was Not yesterday's today and not tomorrow I never could imagine to love it For promises were never kept And I always had this dream But I could not understand I did not realise what it was However, I wanted to keep it Everything that is, does fade away Everything that was... has gone Nothing's what it was, anymore But there's something that remains The hope that we all have And the journey into the blue And being trapped In ourselves I've been patient and waited long Until impatience... awoke No justification Because there was no reason I sat there and stared into the distance I saw the world with my own eyes How it used to be and could be today And how tomorrow was going to be Everything... |
I dived into my feelings The outcome... unknown I knew what my head wanted But what about the heart? I didn't want anything, but expected too much Expected from myself what I couldn't do Absorbed anxiety and desires Wanted everything, yet kept nothing Everything... But, I am not alone I am not alone Feeling alone But I am not alone Supposed to be alone But I am not alone I never was alone And, you are not alone You are not alone You never were alone And, we are not alone We are not alone We never are alone Not alone... |

Can I see all the good things? Or am I just happy when I'm not? |
And then there always is this thought: Is this everything life's got?

It's often said That things are meant To be Always and forever Our life will go on Always and forever Our love is eternal Always and forever We will be together Always and forever We will keep our health Always and forever Our dreams will hold Always and forever Your friends will stay at your side Always and forever Our family will be with us Always and forever |
But people leave One way or another Your friends go away Leaving you alone now Your dreams fade slowly Until they are gone You wanted to give so much Not important anymore You feel that this is all You can give now Health is degrading Sickness taking over Bonds break Nothing is forever |
And through all the somber days When you feel all alone There might still be someone Staying at your side Going with you through the darkness Holding and carrying you Keeping you in their hearts Always and forever Nothing is forever Except love |

The Bread | x | ||

PROLOGUE: For thousands of years Mankind is cultivating crops Harvesting, milling and baking To create the finest bread To satisfy their hunger The purpose of the bread PART 1: The Creation A bread was baked Nice and round and brown Lying in the bakery store Waiting for someone To come and take it home It lay there in between Maybe half a dozen other breads And cakes and cookies Who all were waiting for someone To come and take them home CHORUS: Oh, take it home Take the bread And let it fill your stomach This is its purpose It's what the bread is for To satisfy your hunger To put a smile on your face And make you happy PART 2: Time Has Come An old woman comes To the bakery store She wants to buy a bread But one that's not so dark To take it to her home She also buys some buns And cake and suddenly she wants The darker bread, not burnt But dark and she wants it cut To take it to her home |
The woman at the shop She can't cut it because They took away the machine She says the daughter can help To cut the bread at home The woman nods And pays her bread She is generous and rounding up Smiles happily and walks out Taking the bread home CHORUS PART 3: The Way Home The bread was happy Ready for its destiny Ready to fulfill its purpose And make her hunger go away When they reached her home The woman gasps And holds her heart Her eyes in shock, she's falling To the ground and lying there Wanting to go home She cries in pain And agony Thinking about her family And what she wanted To bring home She sees their faces Before her mind's eye Happily smiling about her gifts But that won't happen cause she is Never coming home again |
The bread is rolling To the side and out of view The woman died, her eyes are open What she just bought, lies next to her As she went finally home They found her soon Bringing her away, taking her things too But they didn't see the bread And she couldn't take the bread with her When she went finally home CHORUS PART 4: Reunion The bread is lying there alone Getting older, harder, wet in rain A cat is rolling it around Briefly making the bread happy again Almost feeling home The bread is found by birds Chirping and picking parts away This wasn't what the bread had imagined But the birds were happy and their hunger gone As the bread went finally home CHORUS EPILOGUE: The woman dead, her family sad No one thinks about the bread Eating the buns and cake the woman bought Mourning her death and their loss The bread still found its destiny The birds, they took it home |

Road Of Light | x | |

"The fiery wrath of mother nature seemed to take a break, as all the snow has melted but for the small heaps protected by the shadows of the trees. You can almost feel spring in the air, as the water flowed steadily, having risen from the melting icy coating that once lay bare." We are driving down A long straight road We are driving up and down The road is wet from the rain The cloudy sky still is dark But the sun breaks through the clouds And slowly turns the road into A shining road of light CHORUS: We are standing on the road of light Where does it go? We are walking on the road of light Where do we go? We are running down the road of light Where does it lead us? We are driving down the road of light Where do we end up finally? |
The sunlight makes it seem to be A road to the sky In divine lighting it materializes: A road to heaven Our eyes are blinded, could it be A road into a better world? Or do we rather need A road into a better time? CHORUS Instrumental Solo CHORUS (2x) |
