Bleeding stars light up the sky Prodigies and beasts are bidding their good-bye And I see the rising of the hollow signs of doubt Want to believe, want to believe There’s love beneath So I close my eyes And I say to myself: “Love, you know how to stabilize.” And I unfold my mind: “There’s no heaven, there’s no hell, love There’s no fortunes left to tell.” Oh, I’ll be eating up the sorrows I’ll turn the frowns around Hope to see the growing signs of doubt just going down So I close my eyes And I say to myself: “Love, you know how to stabilize.” And I unfold my mind: “Quit the stories and get well, love There’s no fortunes left to tell.” We all live complicated lives And we all sometimes just want to hide So many fates in the high-rise They’re unknown, un-shown, hand-sewn, full-blown and grown Bleeding stars light up the skies Prodigies and beasts are bidding their good-bye And I see the rising of the hollow signs of doubt Want to believe, want to believe There’s love beneath

Estoy rodeada DE GENTE pero dejo de escuchar, solo oigo el tren como en 2a línea, el crujir del tren, el silbido de los raíles y mi respiración a todo volumen, en un aire extrañamente ralentizado: UN FRENAZO, el vacío de la línea R y mi respiración flotando en el espacio, flotando en el tiempo, flotando en el universo, el sistema solar, el milky way y la galaxia, y en medio de la nebulosa infinita: TÚ. Allí estás tú, al otro lado del vagón, de la calle, al otro lado de la vida, al otro lado de la noche, al otro lado. Leyendo ese pequeño librito que te han dejado.

This is where the maps stop All is covered in pearl We pass through the light and dark and I can hear the world Your soul is perforated Cannot recognize a/your face My soul is perforated We’re dissipating in space This is where the chat stops All is coated in pearl We pass through the mind and heart and I can see the world Don’t you know that you’re … There’s two rivers within myself Stretching towards eternity Your soul is perforated Cannot recognize a/your face My soul is perforated We’re dissipating in space (He Änn, also es ist so: Ich bin heute morgen aufgewacht Mit tausend Gedanken was ich sagen will. Und die nächste Nachricht ist dann nur Meine Antwort auf die Frage: “Wann fühlst du dich leicht und frei?” … Wenn ich auf einem Berg stehe. … Wenn meine Augen Weite sehen können. … Tief im Wald mit meinen Freunden. … When I listen to music and feel the sun on my skin. … Wenn meine innere Leere die ganze Welt umspannt.) Stretching towards eternity Your soul is perforated Cannot recognize a/your face My soul is perforated We’re dissipating in space

This is for what I longed Infinity beyond A place in space that cannot be outrun Oh, life’s a coincidence So many songs are sung From billionaire to slum A sinus curve connecting everyone So what are the criteria? Who decides if you were born in Munich or in Syria? If you meet an educator Or have to flee from a dictator Who gets to be the commentator And who’s assigned as perpetrator? Mediator, detonator? Violator, litigator? This is where I belong Infinity beyond A place in space that cannot be outrun Yeah, life’s a coincidence It takes a lot of resilience So does my luck fuck up someone else’s life? Is my birth worth to amplify the overdrive? So what are the criteria? Who decides if you were born in Munich or in Syria? If you meet an educator Or have to flee from a dictator Who gets to be the commentator And who’s assigned as perpetrator? Oh, life’s a coincidence Life’s a coincidence

Dieser Moment, in dem man plötzlich den ganzen Weltschmerz fühlt. Überwältigend. Tränen auf den Wangen. Schon als Kind. Jedes Mal: "Was ist los? Was ist passiert? Nichts. Alles. Ich hatte keine Worte dafür. Ich hatte keine Worte …

Eins, zwei, drei, vier … We've been here before It's written in history books and it looks like Once more We live through the documentary I've seen on the telly The is hell We seem to be unable to learn I was born in a country with a horrible past And there's so many countries where the dread still lasts They say it's human nature We make a horrible cast

Hello brain It's been a while Hello grey matter Life never tasted any better So many things we do Look at this mess Good news is: If we did it, we can undo it We can unscrew it If you're up to it We can see this through We can love and respect and protect and connect We can see, we can feel, we can let it be and agree We can allow different world views Kung Fu, Zulu, Voodoo, Urdu We can choose not to subdue Hello white matter Come on, let's try this Life never tasted any better

当最后两个流浪汉在冬天告别
 当跛脚的地铁疲惫于互相追逐
半个街道的垃圾袋相拥,沉思在路沿
饥饿的情侣捻灭呻吟的烟头,开始吞噬对方
一个流浪的灵魂倚靠在竹杖上
挨家挨户地敲门
却被关在门外
当台灯在眩晕的窗户里闭上眼睑
当霓虹灯伸出裸露的指头
抚慰冰凉的路沿,那儿
有一群大学生你推我嚷,
啤酒瓶摔成一地破碎的
誓言

Our dreams are set on fire So many stories to inspire They enclose us As we yearn The feelings raw and wired So many outcomes to desire Well, they know our Stories burn Unknowing you are everything Invisible naked ties Raging inside a hurricane A cut-off and unleashed kite While sensing the lives of everywhere You don’t need no wings to fly, fly, fly In the year of sonder Our dreams are set on fire So many stories to inspire They enclose us As we yearn Unknowing you are everything Invisible naked ties Raging inside a hurricane A cut-off and unleashed kite While sensing the lives of everywhere You just need the will to fly Nothing we can’t do In the year of sonder We’re on our way It’s the year of sonder

about

With this album I invite you to walk through New York City with me – or through a city of your dreams. We will look up the high rises and wonder what lives unfold behind the millions of windows. We will walk down to the subway and go on a ride with Mellon Collie. We will meet amazing people and hear wonderful and sometimes difficult stories, we will briefly listen in while passing by and then move on. I hope you will find your own moments of sonder in my music.

sonder (noun)
the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own—populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness—an epic story that continues invisibly around you like an anthill sprawling deep underground, with elaborate passageways to thousands of other lives that you’ll never know existed, in which you might appear only once, as an extra sipping coffee in the background, as a blur of traffic passing on the highway, as a lighted window at dusk.
(Dictionary Of Obscure Sorrows)
