Would you like an adventure around our blue planet
Would you like to travel all around the world
Lots of friends to meet there
Great food to discover
Many places to see there
All around the world
Would you like an adventure across our great oceans
Would you like to travel deep beneath the sea
Lots of treasures to find there
New life to discover
Many fish to see there
Deep beneath the sea
Would you like an adventure through our mighty jungle
Would you like to travel in the wilderness
Lots of sounds to hear there
Creatures to discover
Many trees to see there
In the wilderness
Would you like an adventure above all our mountains
Would you like to travel high up in the sky
Lots of room to play there
Landscapes to discover
Many birds to see there
High up in the sky
Would you like an adventure around our blue planet
Would you like to travel all around the world
Lots of things to learn there
Stories to discover
Many wonders to see there
All around the world.

And if the sun should rise
In the middle of the night with pride
Filling colors as they turn to see
Night will never be the fear in me
If only then would time stand still
Step aside and let life grow
Let numbers fall into the sea
And always be a part of me.

How many times
Can you take yourself apart
And put yourself back together
Just the other way around
And it’s not the right way
‘Cause you still feel the pain
You can still feel the emptiness
In everything you do
How many times
Can you fall and break apart
And break everything around you
Just to give yourself away
And no one can hear you
‘Cause they never feel pain
They’ll never feel the emptiness
In everything you do.

Trees are in the sea
Birds fly by the moon
The sky gently grows
As the sun is turning blue
Work is thrown away
My friends are left behind
Everything has disappeared
And you are the focus of my life.

A mystical journey begun
Where stars gathered the clouds
And we lived in this sea
In a place where nothing can be seen
And a single soul was left
To crawl this majestic earth
As she speaks her simple mind
Of a place she can find, her love.
And a single soul was left
To crawl this majestic earth
As she’s waiting for the sun to rise
And dance across the ocean’s floor.

If everything feels
As if it belongs in a dream
Then nothing left is real
I’ve lost touch with myself and reality
I’m in display
Living my life
As a colored picture still
Behind a television screen.

I’ll embrace you
In my arms
Persuading
Your restless mind
And long for you
With a smile
I’ll comfort
The shudder of your thought
Seeking
Your charming nature
And long for you
With a kiss
At starlight
Every night
Every day
Behind your knight.

We speak the same voice
Although yours
Doesn’t bring an image
To my mind
Raindrops will fill your glass
And overflow mine
As mine
Is filled with life
We all share a good friend in their absence
Time and its disadvantages.

The pain I fought was free
The tales I read were gone
My childhood was denied
But wasn’t left alone
You never lied to me
Or tell me why you did
I’ll search those thousand words
To find out what you meant
And when I see you now
My life will turn around
I’ll face the truth again, by myself
These words are yours
My soul you left had died
Again I fell alone
It rose up in the sky
And took me by surprise
You never cried for me
Or tell me why you did
I’ll search those thousand tears
To find out what you felt
And when I see you now
The sadness in my heart
I’ll face the truth again, by myself
These words are yours.

Everything looks new
Everything feels new
If I wouldn’t know more
I’d say I was new
I’ve seen this before
I’ve said this before
If time was a cycle
Was I here before?
Feelings have changed
My heart has changed
If nothing is left
Then what has changed
Believe what is gone
Forgive what is done
Accept what will be
There is never an end.

The night is long
There is no wrong
This is my gun
My world is gone
And now I’m done
My fear has come
This world is round
I’ll come around.

Until this day
I lived with myself
I was walking in a world
Where I’ve always been feared through the night
This is who I am
I’m all alone sitting here
On a stone not so far away
And I’ve never found someone like me
Someone just like me
When I thought of being cruel
The curse is free of my soul
Of my mind
I can feel who I am
And I’m just like everyone
Living in this world
I am sore
But I am glad to be free
Today
Is the end.

Within me
Within you
Within every dream that brings me strength
Within me
Within you
Within every thought that brings me hope
Within me
Within you
Within every pulse that brings me life
Within me
Within you
Within every step that brings me closer.

A tearing soul of a laughing child
My dead beaten fear
Behind everyone else’s dream
Someone always gets hurt
A slap from a cross-checkered tour
Another overrated cell
Running, moving away
Shinning on the other side, my love
Over this tree high above this earth
Angels live and see us die
Reanimated suicide
I’m feeling empty for this world
Sinuous rivers collapsing every last day
Faithly unassigned thoughts
Is my life nothing
But someone else’s dream?

Inspire yourself as you can breathe this day
Force those among you to feel what you understand
And overcome what they’ve buried inside
You might enjoy a stranger’s company
As others would prefer remarkable friendships
Which guide and care for the difference we make
Feeling lonely shelters our desires
To weep when we need someone to hold our pride
Or someone to share a moment we seek
As everything moves on and others forgotten
We think and take the time to look behind
Freedom can be something hard to hold on to.

As I sleep
A quiet day wakes me
I am lost at sea
Crossing this limbo
Which feels the warmth
Of a cold far away star
I am cold faced with fear
Big iron covered chest
I feel un-powerful
Starring at myself
Dancing this ring of pleasure
Forgiving my own confessions
The sky is filled with self-thinking fools
And clouds are nothing but an impression of time
Shattered with thoughts of others
Remembering this day
As one of many visions
Heard from inexperienced voices
Virgins of pale golden feathers
Revealing themselves into mystery
With a touch of innocence
In a glass of pure humanity
We drunken or sins
As others can sometimes relate.

I was born in a world made of dust
Dust the life I must live for
I walked on a path covered in dust
Dust the clouds that shelter my warmth
I bled a heart drowned with love and dust
Dust the breath that fills my lungs
I drank from a large cup filled with dust
Dust the anger within my soul.
