Morning air, and the sun will help Brand new day, it’s a brand new day Just wake up, leave your bed Feel your body, feel your breath Watch your arms, watch your legs Healing lights shine on faces, time by time these faces shine Sweet flavour is flowing through the air Sweet flavour is flowing through the air Everybody shows the best they can It is easy to live With some love, love to give That act brings happiness to you It is easy to live With some love, love to give The life is just a miracle To live is just a miracle Do you know, am I right Do you know, am I right Life is great, but not at first sight It is the other view Or maybe something new Feel your heart and feel that beat Close your eyes, keep it in the dark Close your eyes, keep it in the dark You don’t need to be afraid It is easy to live With some love, love to give That act brings happiness to you It is easy to live With some love, love to give The life is just a miracle To live is just a miracle Yeah, the miracle

Waves 03:41
I was studying so hard Near and far away Playing with my mind Again and again Destroying my body And my style I’m still walking in a circle Round and round The past is dead, everything’s changed The future is not real, it’s made in my head The only thing that matters is the present wave Hear it splashing, see it flowing and it’s fine Is there anybody against my wave Anybody to turn it away Anybody against my wave Is there anybody against my wave Anybody to stop it that way Anybody against my wave The past is dead everything’s changed The future is not real it’s made in my head The only thing that matters is the present wave Hear it splashing see it flowing and it’s fine That wave can splash me down Another one strokes my back So I can surf as I want Nobody can tell me what is right I’m not dumb Is there anybody against my wave Anybody to turn it away Anybody against my wave Is there anybody against my wave Anybody to stop me that way Anybody against my wave Is there anybody against my wave Please, tell me the answer in my face Is there anybody against my wave Anybody to turn it away Please, tell me the answer in my face

The Passion 05:10
Hello my darling You are so nice You are so beautiful in my eyes For a long time Hello my darling dressed in black The words that you say Sound like a birdsong in my ears Please carry on It is a big passion Leading to an obsession It is a big passion It is a big passion The passion Are you still here, my baby? Let me hug you for the second time If you know how much I’m thinking about you Thinking of you I wanna see you Are you still there, my baby? I can’t find you! Where did you go? Whoah Where did you go? Whoah It is a big passion Leading to an obsession It is a big passion It is a big passion From the big passion To depression The passion, baby The passion To see you Yeah! It is a big passion Leading to an obsession It is a big passion It is a big passion From the big passion To depression

Does it hurt When I tell you my truth About you? Does it hurt When you give me your truth About me? About me About you How do you feel? How do you? The labyrinth of opinions The gate is near A magic incantation But wrong conclusion The only thing is fear Fear won’t let you go Fear won‘t let you go Go, go in It is a game A game of our minds And it can stop Who's gonna help us? We are on a marry-go-round Or in a blind alley Need to be free Need to be new How do you feel? How do you? The labyrinth of opinions The gate is near A magic incantation But wrong conclusion The only thing is fear Fear won’t let you go Fear won‘t let you go Go, go in

We Know It 05:05
He is the only one who Knows how it is He knows everything else Reason and consequence It can‘t be named in words It lies deep inside, so deep inside And you can‘t understand what it‘s about Just turn off your mind We know it but we don’t remember We know it but we don’t understand And we are still searching and now We know it but we don’t remember We know it but we don’t understand And we are still searching and for the truth Too many names for him It’s not important to me Too many wars in his name, yeah It’s clear, he’s innocent It can’t be said in words There’s a new epoch All around the world God’s transcending aspect Is in everyone of us Is in everyone of us We know it but we don’t remember We know it but we don’t understand And we are still searching and now… We know it but we aren’t the strangers We know it, we need the help from aliens And we are still searching and now We know it, the torture is over We know it, the life is a wonder And we are still searching and now…

Stand 03:49
Look deep inside yourself It is closed for now Forever searching For the sign to break it through All the times Slaves on your own Keep yourself open The Maker found you everywhere Let your feelings flow now Let your thoughts run away As your person - not exists You need to stand When you want to run, you want to run It’s in your hands And let it happen All the times Slaves on your own When freedom is close to you Please take a stand Nevermind, you don’t feel anything Try again Don’t be small, here’s the love Help’s coming Let your feelings flow now Let your thoughts run away As your person - not exists You need to stand When you want to run, you want to run It’s in your hands And let it happen All is One You need to stand When you want to run, you want to run It’s in your hands And let it happen And let it happen

Astrological 05:09
Strawberry voices in your head Can't find them anywhere Strawberry faces in your eyes They’re flying to the sky Don't walk away Please stay for a little while I'll be a better man I'm on the way And there's no turning back The changes in my head The astrological constellation Changes my mood again And everything is inside Me, so it's difficult To understand For both of us it’s hard to live With me here or there Up and down No no no no no! Don't walk away I'm on the way and I'll be a better man The changes in my head The astrological constellation Changes my mood again And everything is inside Me, so it's difficult To understand For both of us it’s hard to live With me here or there Up and down No no no no no! Changes in my head Up and down, no Changes in my head It tears apart my soul Changes in my head Up and down, no Changes in my head It tears apart my soul It tears apart my soul

Lies 04:02
I was born born into lies I’m getting used to it I wanna get rid of it No chance to know What is truth Or what is a lie And I’m sick of promises That are everywhere Not a man of his word remains there That’s all I can say Can you take? Can you take your words, words for what you’ve said? Can you swear? Can you swear you can keep a word? Lies, yeah Lies Bury it in my eyes! Well, do you think everything’s all right? But how do you know? Well, do you love her anymore? But what is love? Well are you sober or drunk? But does it make any difference, anyway? Is that what you can swear? Can you take? Can you take your words, words for what you’ve said? Can you swear? Can you swear you can keep a word? Lies yeah Lies Bury it in my eyes! Bury it in my eyes! Ooh, ooh Can you take? Can you take your words, words for what you’ve said? Can you swear? Can you swear you can keep a word? Can you swear you can keep a word?
10.
Again Again and again The blood still keeps dropping And your head keeps dizzying Air You can still breath the air But we don’t need to stop it And the pleasure is rising Sing with me this song Sing it round and round Your time has come Your time has come This is heaven It's close to us So, come in It is expected And you are awaited Lay down on the bed The green eyes are closing slowly As graves in a cemetery We don’t need anything Maybe the kiss of you my love And still sing this song Sing with me this song Sing it round and round Your time has come Your time has come This is heaven It's close to us So, come in It is expected And you are awaited Awaited
