In a world stranger than fiction Time flies, devastation Planet earth's a lunatic asylum Children fearful of men become violent The blast of a shrapnel, a gunfire roar Profit and greed, I can't stand it any more Redwoodtrees standing strong and tall How long do we need to cut them all Disintegration Rusted strings, broken backs Another friend fell through the cracks Cancer kills, a virus spreads Industrial culprits try to cover their tracks Sometimes I just can't cope what I'm seeing And I wish for something to believe in At least pain's not endless and tears might dry And these songs will help us to get by Disintegration

Alone under the vast desert sky His hand started shaking and his skin became dry "Father oh father, what have I done?" A lot of things echo like the voice of his son His only friends are the guitar and his songs "A place whithout postcards" is where he belongs And lost in a nightmare, a feverish dream He lays in the sand, beginning to scream Oooohhhh another year flies by so fast Oooohhhh broken strings starting to rust Oooohhhh leave me be Oooohhhh vultures circling me The sound of his guitar fills the land His legs became numb, covered with sand Five clumsy chords, a scratchy hoarse voice "Let's sing along, let's rejoice" Successful and wealthy he wanted to be All things fall apart and he's now the one to see The story is written, the final chapter begins The lonely man repents all of his sins Oooohhhh another year flies by so fast Oooohhhh broken strings starting to rust Oooohhhh leave me be Oooohhhh vultures circling me No one sings along No one at all

The Truth 03:20
I've fallen on these evil days Broken hopes and tattered dreams Drowned in disbelief False destructive lies guiding my way Every failure, every turn Too many bridges they (I) have burned But I need to cross them all Let's emphasize these songs As a wake up call May the weight of the world Neither throw me off course Nor break my back and spirit "You're only young once, so.." they said I'm looking back in deep and fierce regret Makes me upset, how could I've wasted so much strength and breath "You're only alive once" make it count Put your feet on solid ground Tonight I do it right, leave these doubts and troubles all behind Let these words Bring me back Looking over my shoulder today I see a damn long road I've walked Joy and hope and fear A human on their course to see things clear Drunk, sober and abstained I've tried so many things to cure the pain The last refrain always sounds best if passion and truth remain "You're only young once, so.." they said I'm looking back in deep and fierce regret, makes me upset, how could I've wasted so much strength and breath "You're only alive once" make it count Put your feed on solid ground Tonight I do it right, leave this doubts and troubles all behind Let these words Bring me back The truth is life is depressing Bittersweet and frustrating It's up to us to stand our ground And make every minute count Exhausted and desperate It's up to us to keep the pace Even if we're losing track Let these words and music bring us back May the weight of the world Neither throw me off course Nor break my back and spirit Let these words ring true Let's emphasize these songs As a wake up call

I try to sing along But our voices are gone It feels so wrong 1,2,3 go Is it really 42? Time and space, I don't have a clue I dare to reflect on my past years and its meaning Like my hoarse throat sound my shirt is used and rocked out But is it an option at all To flee in desperation? We're not really young anymore Green has turned to gold As we grew old Our summer's passed and left us here in... Rain wash away the dirt and pain Let our youthful hearts remain as strong As the crashing waves from the north sea shoreline Do you like our sound? Will you stand your ground? Next year who's around? We saw kids come and go with great ideas and powerful shows I found passion and peace in my own imperfection Some sang their unity songs, politics or how punk is done But the fire is alive and well And I'm walking away with a smile We're not really young anymore Green has turned to gold As we grew old Our summer's passed and left us here in... Rain wash away the dirt and pain Let our youthful hearts remain as strong As the crashing waves from the north sea shoreline Looking at the setting sun The north sea crashes on
