Bodily Fluids

This room is empty, big and clean, Bodily fluids are on the floor
The walls are even, white and clean, Soundproof room, there is no door

I always tried to be alone, But every sentience turned to stone
The wounds don't hurt, you can believe, The impossible i must achieve

Red little splatters of blood inside, Forming new pictures of you tonight
More than a circle and more than lines, But i can't see you though the lamp shines

This room is growing endlessly, 'Til there is nothing else to see
Only you you inside of me, Can pull this pictures out of me

This room is empty, big and clean, Bodily fluids are on the floor
The walls are even, white and clean, Soundproof room, there is no door

Red little splatters of blood inside, Forming new pictures of you tonight
More than a circle and more than lines, But i can't see you though the lamp shines

D.O.A.

New sensation is here, your creation of fear, alternative version of fun, you're leaving all senses undone

neglecting me you survive, due to the fact of life

new creation is here, your sensation of fear, alternative version to see, you're leaving all senses to me

every now and then, over and over again

dead on arrival, your words in my ears

cry for survival, eyes without tears

dead on arrival, too bad about you

everyone's rival is searching for truth

new creation is here, your sensation of fear, alternative version to see, you're leaving all senses to me

every now and then, over and over again

dead on arrival, your words in my ears

cry for survival, eyes without tears

dead on arrival, too bad about you

everyone's rival is searching for truth

Not Made Of Flesh

Though the doors are locked I don't need a key
and I'm not caught in laws of gravity
detached from sticky carpets I'm flying to the edge of the sky
gravitated to your rejection my forsakenness I deny
Scrambled into pieces, creeping through the sieve
speaking with a hundred tongues, in love I don't believe
scrambled into pieces, creeping through the sieve
speaking with a hundred tongues, in love I don't believe
I'm not made of flesh, I'm in a state of deadness
now I'm everywhere, no matter if you care
detached from sticky carpets I'm flying to the edge of the sky
gravitated to your rejection my forsakenness I deny
Scrambled into pieces, creeping through the sieve
speaking with a hundred tongues, in love I don't believe

(Micha Kopp, Freiburg 2009)

 

Diesmal hab ich es mir leicht gemacht

Diesmal hab ich es mir leicht gemacht

Mir die ganze Welt neu ausgedacht

Meine Freunde aus Ideen geformt

Jede Art von Glueck auf mich genormt

Keine Angst mehr vor der alten Zeit

In der alle Angst verborgen bleibt

Wie sie schlummernd auf der Lauer liegt

Und nur hofft, dass sie mein Herz besiegt

Niemand wird mir sagen, wer ich war und wer ich waere. Niemand wird dann da sein, wenn ich fort war und wiederkehre

Keine Fragen lenken ab vom Glueck

Keine Sorgen kehren je zurueck

Endlich mir einmal der Naechste sein

Niemand ausser mir wirft hier den ersten Stein

Und die Zweifel streif ich einfach ab

Werde feiern und zwar nicht zu knapp

Vom Gedanken werd ich mich befreien

Dass es traurig ist allein zu sein

Niemand wird mir sagen, wer ich war und wer ich wäre Niemand wird dann da sein, wenn ich fort war und wiederkehre

Meine Freunde aus Ideen geformt, jede Art von Glueck auf mich genormt, vom Gedanken werd ich mich befreien, dass es sinnlos ist allein zu sein Niemand wird mir sagen, wer ich war und wer ich waere Niemand wird dann da sein, wenn ich fort war und wiederkehre

Niemand wird mir sagen, wer ich war und wer ich waere Niemand wird dann da sein, wenn ich fort war und wiederkehre

Crush

Now I understand, and it's over

searching for your hand, it's allover

stumping with your feet and tell them

what you want to be, what you want to be, what you want to be

carry on your nagging about, carry on your nagging about the masses who are begging too loud

carry on your nagging about, crush them!

now I understand, and it's over

searching for your hands, it's all over

carry on your nagging about, carry on your nagging about the masses who are begging too loud

carry on your nagging about, crush them!

don't try to listen to your breath

 

(Micha Kopp)

 

Love Is Simple

i know it's overbearing and your time elapsed in sections that only you can understand
your values were so different
so you know you concern me though the appearance tells another story
about borderlines and loneliness, it seemed that the parts were assigned
i heard you all were escaping from the burning fires which were your home in black and white
your belongings were your clothes and some shoes
now i mistake the whole reason for the behaviour of your friends
not in generations, not in traditions i have to search for

so please don't cry 'cause it's too late, i wonder why you think that love is so simple
time is passing by, no reason to wait, i wonder why you think that love is so simple
please don't cry 'cause it's too late, i wonder why you think that love is so simple
time is passing by, no reason to wait, i wonder why you think that love is impossible

the people know you were selfish without sharing you and your smile
behind the curtain, between your emotions we never had the heart to look
now i accuse me of silence though the time still works on the mend
and trusting in good things, believing in progress, i'm just hoping to see you again

so please don't cry 'cause it's too late, i wonder why you think that love is so simple
time is passing by, no reason to wait, i wonder why you think that love is so simple
please don't cry 'cause it's too late, i wonder why you think that love is so simple
time is passing by, no reason to wait, i wonder why you think that love is impossible

Coming Back Again

I don't know why I'm running around without a ticket in my left hand
and a place I can hide, oh no
this illusion and its permanent urge, it's just a wasting of time
I could use by your side, oh no
I don't want to share moments with you without a rocket in my cellar
which is ready to fly, oh no
empty bags and slowly ways of thinking will never rule my everyday life that I used to deny

manage my speech, use my brain, places to reach, and coming back again
hide-and-seek, on avenues to fame, places to reach, and coming back again

I don't know why I don't comprehend, my time is wearing away
I think you're eating the sand, oh no
accepting it's a case of hobson's choice, I have to carry away you
to the place we can hide

 

(Micha Kopp)

 

This Time

the meaning of being and everything, the questions about above
the cause of my pain and my happiness, the meaning and sense of love

colour the background of sentiences, and sign it with your own name
always we try making common cause, but we all get the same

this time i have to recover, because we were born to live and to suffer
don't try to destroy the pain i'm used to, this time is the only time to lose

believing and leaving and everything, betray and agree again
yesterday we closed our eyes, tried to sleep, now we do all we can

knowing that nothing will happen here, we're waiting in patience
for answers of questions and everything, to end up frustrations

 

(Micha Kopp)

Why Me

needles inside millions of skins longing for peace, hoping that love never ends
with guns in their mouth politicians shout out: why me? why me.
running in circles the people are praying, they don't use their head
millions of ants are killing each other, from behind
they don't use their head
why me?

there is a place, there is a landscape, the masses of people - increasing, endlessly
earthquakes & wars aren't eating the progress

needles inside millions of skins longing for peace, hoping that love never ends
with guns in their mouth politicians shout out: why me? why me.
(repeat chorus  'til dr. comes)

 

(Micha Kopp)

 

 

One Crowd

fight without illusions, carnations on the girls grave, increasing violence, just spreading dead men

one crowd, one meaning, one dream, no past, no sense in the horizon

who wants to follow, the next will be the last

everywhere sweet blood, i love this roadworks,reincarnation for my gun
carnations on the girl's grave and roses for the brave

one crowd, one meaning, one dream, no past, no sense, in the horizon
who wants to follow, the next will be the last

one crowd, one meaning, one dream, no past, no sense, in the horizon
who wants to follow, the next will be the last

Down Down

i've got a ticket through the thicket, i would be embarressed if you would retrieve me
do i have to run away from this emotions 'til it's over? (your colours are wonderful)
if i only knew the reason for this love i feel all-over (so please don't say to me 'it's over')

if you're searching for another disappointed lover, you bring me down, down
spread your wings and try to cover my weakness that i suffer, you put me down, down
keep on flying with devotion that keeps your life in motion, but don't shut down, down
it's so easy to discover one love after another, but don't look down, down, down, down

i want to keep an eye to you, i want to watch you closely, how you are turning wheels, smiling, searching for someone
you grace my heaven from 1 to 7, i come across my life that didn't know you
do i have to run away from this emotions 'til it's over? (your colours are wonderful)
if i only knew the reason for this love i feel all-over (so please don't say to me 'it's over')

if you're searching for another disappointed lover, you bring me down, down
spread your wings and try to cover my weakness that i suffer, you put me down, down
keep on flying with devotion that keeps your life in motion, but don't shut down, down
it's so easy to discover one love after another, but don't look down, down, down, down

(like a butterfly i will take you high, though i hate goodbye i will let you fly

Speak And Spell

(Der Text besteht aus 54 Depeche-Mode-Songtiteln)

(The lyrics contain 54 Depeche-Mode-Songtitles)

 

the sun & the rainfall, the landscape is changing, dream on, waiting for the night
the meaning of love, to have and to hold, shake the disease, get the balance right
people are people, dressed in black, new life, useless, new dress
happiest girl, in your room, it's no good, i want you now, one caress

(this ain't) nodisco, the damaged people suffer well
it doesn't matter when the body speaks
my secret garden, speak & spell

freelove, strangelove, sea of sin, love in itself
a question of time, i just can't get enough, only when i lose myself
i feel you, i am you, i feel loved, in"sight" your memory
walking in my shoes, in a world full of nothing, if you want, get right with me

(this ain't) nodisco, the damaged people suffer well
it doesn't matter when the body speaks
my secret garden, speak & spell


policy of truth, something to do, but not tonight
sacred shout, sometimes flexible, get the balance right
lie to me, enjoy the silence, what's your name?
here is the house, everything counts, never let me down again

(this ain't) nodisco, the damaged people suffer well
it doesn't matter when the body speaks
my secret garden, speak & spell

Damaged

we are deaf 'cause we receive just colours here
...everything is burst inside my head
so you have something to eat
but i don't become mad
though you are able to increase the heat
feel the colours concentrated in your eyes
feel the noise of 1000 colours in your ears
use your noise-reducted system in your brain
and restart receiving signals as before
feel the colours concentrated in your eyes
and the noise of every colour in your ear
the destination is defined by the rise
we are deaf 'cause we receive just colours here

 

(Micha Kopp)

 

Happiest Evil

obviously...

the cellar is my home, dark and wet, see my walls
the devil is calling, my bulb has burnt out
i'm the happiest evil, talking to my neighbours, i'm the happiest evil, laughing obviously
the spider, my best friend, always showing me the way, the way out of the cellar
where the colors are hurting me, where the loudness is vaporizing me,where the people are dying, where the air is so clear
where the colors are hurting, where the loudness is vaporizing me, where the people are dying,where the air is so fucking clear
the cellar is my home, dark and wet, see my walls, the devil is calling, my bulb has burnt out
the happiest evil, talking to my neighbours, i'm the happiest evil, laughing obviously
where the colors are hurting me, where the loudness is vaporizing me, where the people are dying, where the air is so clear
where the colors are hurting, where the loudness is vaporizing me, where the people are dying,where the air is so fucking clear

Nervensäge

Guck wen haben wir denn da? Schau doch nicht so sonderbar.

Wehrlos bist du, das ist gut. Gleich fällt der erste Tropfen Blut.

Meine Waffe macht dir Angst? Kein Wunder, sie kann Schädel spalten.
Lass es zu, und du wirst sehen: Dein Leben lässt sich neu gestalten
Schön, du fängst zu zittern an. Das steigert nur noch meinen Wahn.
Du glaubst ich wär dein ärgster Feind, der wartet bis sein Opfer weint?
Wenn es doch nur daran läge! Ich bin's, deine Nervensäge!

Ich bin deine Nervensäge.

Kalt und meines Zieles sicher durchtrenn ich jedes dünne Band,
das dich noch bei Sinnen hält. Jetzt hab ich sie in meiner Hand.
Deine Mine wird zu Eis, weil ich dir jeden Sinn zerreiss.
Dort am Boden, kannst' sie sehen? Ich werd dir auf die Nerven gehn.

Ich bin deine Nervensäge.

Girl

girl
i always wanted you to go, i always wanted you to know that my heart is made of stone
oh baby, but i didn't want to say goodbye, oh baby, this is just a waste of time
girl
you always wanted little lies, you didn't tried to realize, that my heart is made of ice
oh baby, but i didn't want to say goodbye, oh baby, this is just a waste of time
baby, you make me feel so sad, baby, you make me want to go to bed, you make me want to go to bed
girl, i always wanted you to go, i always wanted you to know, that my heart is made of stone
oh baby, but i didn't want to say goodbye, oh baby, this is just a waste of time
baby, you make me feel so sad, baby, you make me want to go to bed, you make me want to go to bed
yes

Hide My Face

can I hide my face behind the hand that always hurts, am I able to see the truth behind my words, unheard
wide open mouths are always shouting out these words, why can't I
may I go the way which I left so many times, am I able to end up this without reading between the lines
wide open mouths are always shouting out these words, why can't I
oooh hu-whoo-uh ho-whea-hoo :)    oooh hu-whoo-uh ho-whea-hoo, oooh hu-whoo-uh ho-whea-hoo
can I hide my face behind the hand that always hurts, am I able to see the truth behind my words, unheard
wide open mouths are always shouting out these words, why can't I
may I go the way which I left so many times, am I able to end up this without reading between the lines
wide open mouths are always shouting out these words, why can't I
oooh hu-whoo-uh ho-whea-hoo, oooh hu-whoo-uh ho-whea-hoo, oooh hu-whoo-uh ho-whea-hoo

Old-Fashioned Songs

Old-fashioned songs are dying away, I hear people say stupid words everyday
Come on pick me up now, this is the sickliest crowd
I hear myself say, better get out of my way, I don’t want to betray, I just want you to relay
No one else is allowed to pick me up now
My head is filled up with garbage, recycling the largest experience I ever received
It makes sense to believe in the end without making amends

The old-fashioned songs, weeping over the tongues of the people who remember the days of goodbye
The choir’s spreading the noise for the girls and the boys, they will always leave the troubles behind

A new release, putting up for sale, left the desk without fail, reaching us via mail
So please make no resistance, they covered a long distance
Now I hold in my hand what I don’t understand and I won’t be your friend if you’ve got no time to spend
No one else is allowed to persuade me now
My head is cleaned up by the beating, the melody’s repeating until it hurts receiving the same
I do not suffer the pain anymore, it’s not worth it to die for

 

The old-fashioned songs, weeping over the tongues of the people who remember the days of goodbye
The choir’s spreading the noise for the girls and the boys, they will always leave the troubles behind

 

(Micha Kopp)

 

Behind My Heart

the place behind my heart is already yours
i don't have to tell you this, you've got this sensitivity
i don't want to reach the lands where i lose you
don't have to spell a kiss, you know this emergency

i just want to taste, i don't want to waste your time
nobody is going to do that
the needle of what you speak is making me so weak
it's deep inside, deep inside

you're in the endless searching for someone like you
you don't have to tell that, i've got this sensitivity
the place behind my heart is already yours
and if you want to come in, you only have to find me

i don't want to fake, i just want to take you home
to where you were born, you might be the torned
i just want to taste, i don't want to waste your time
nobody is going to do that

i take care for you

(Micha Kopp)

 

Double-Track

In your previous life you traveled with people
helping you to become acquainted with yourself
although you were in a position to reject their help
although you were in a position to reject their health

I wish you so much it would not be a dream to be a part of this world
Your love will be touched by your hands and they seem to be in love with a girl

Today you arrive and your fellow-traveler runs the risk of reaching a dead lock
He recognizes: "your totally changed!"
A long journey on different tracks left behind disillusions
A long journey on different tracks left behind bitterness

I wish you so much it would not be a dream to be a part of this world
Your love will be touched by your hands and they seem to be in love with a girl

Don't look for new friends! Try not to take you back!!
But have confidence with us! Don't slip out of your egg!

Your potencial confiction entangled you and me, the fear of losing both tracks is all you can see
A long journey on different tracks left behind disillusions
A long journey on different tracks left behind bitterness

I wish you so much it would not be a dream to be a part of this world
Your love will be touched by your hands and they seem to be in love with a girl
To be in love with a girl

In your previous life you traveled with people, helping you to become acquainted with yourself
although you were in a position to reject their help
although you were in a position to reject their health
[dedicated to a girl]

Blank-Faced

Musik, Produktion: subpop & emhead; Text, Gesang: emhead

 

From cake to crumb, and then squashed by a thumb

I’m a grain of sand and you don’t understand

Like a drop in your eyes that you don’t recognize

Like a ship in the sea, searching for enemies

 

Blank-faced, we are existing, we make no more promises of pain

Blank-faced, counting bank notes, you’ll wait for tomorrow in vain

 

Water washes land and you don’t understand

Birds are eating crumbs and the blood it runs cold

We will carry you to the last century, and destroying you like the soldiers meant to be

 

Blank-faced, we are existing, we make no more promises of pain

Blank-faced, counting bank notes, you’ll wait for tomorrow in vain

 

We will eat your flesh, every nerve is nudging you

And with every slash life will show what is true

 

Blank-faced, we are existing, we make no more promises of pain

Blank-faced, counting bank notes, you’ll wait for tomorrow in vain

 

(Micha Kopp)

 

Slipstream!

Musik, Produktion: subpop & emhead; Text, Gesang: emhead

 

here i can see my alternate ego, see how it tries to be patient enough
this is the place where i use my placebo, so i don't have to take my face off
stories of life are surrounding my head, unfortunately i assumed there were two
directions, but now i can see the big threat, coloured in red-yellow-blue

attenders are shouting at me through the fume, longing for breaking the line
this house is like a big post i assume, i have to be careful it could be my spine

follow the slipstream! forces decay
follow the slipstream! it's only a heartbeat away

don't be surprised about actions you never did before
just use the force of attraction, ignore any physical-based law

follow the slipstream! forces decay
follow the slipstream! it's only a heartbeat away


follow the slipstream! (don't touch the edge)
forces decay (blacks and whites fledge)
follow the slipstream! it's only a heartbeat away
follow the slipstream! (just move your feet)
forces decay (increasing the heat)
follow the slipstream! it's only a heartbeat away
 

 

(Micha Kopp)

 

Testimonies Of Love

i sew my eyes shut
because i want to see the truth
of the stories you will tell
my feet will receive all the moves that you will do
in heaven or in hell
my hands will absorb all the fears that you will have
in sad and hopeless times
in return they could throw off sparks into your eyes
will you receive my signs?
tell me what you expect
testimonies of my love?

 

(Micha Kopp)

 

 

Divided

emotionally we are worlds apart
reasonably we should have canceled the start
naturally countless cities between us
emotionally there's nothing between us

i put myself together
though it's just you and me
it's only me who's divided
there's noone else i can see

there's noone else i can see
there's noone else i can see
there's noone else i can see
there's noone else i can see


(Micha Kopp)

 

Wasted

the rivers of tears end into the sea
while I remember what they mean to me

learning to swim, you fail to appear
in oceans of pain, I'm searching a tear
the fishes already swallowed every hope for surviving
every nerve which awakes me, every beat of my heart

the fishes already swallowed every hope for surviving
everything that keeps me alive, everything that keeps me alive

the fishes already swallowed every hope for surviving
every nerve which awakes me, every beat of my heart
the fishes already swallowed every hope for surviving
every nerve which awakes me, every beat of my heart
every stich that you gave me, all the love that i wasted
every beat of my heart

every pain i can feel


(Micha Kopp)

 

Broken

you're always watching tv
perhaps there could be something else like me
you're always looking down on your way to the sea
maybe your face could answer your questions what life is meant to be
i could be hungry for you
perhaps there could be something else like me
i want to know your name
and if you go away
please take away this broken happiness, too
you're always watching tv
perhaps there could be something else like me
i could be hungry for you
perhaps there could be something else like me
i want to know your name
and if you go away
please take away this broken happiness, too
you're always looking down on your way to the sea
maybe your face could answer your questions what life is meant to be
i want to know your name
and if you go away
please take away this broken happiness, too
i want to know your name
and if you go away
please take away this broken happiness, too

(Micha Kopp)

emhead

I'm a soldier without weapons, I'm an eagle without wings

I'm just looking for nothing, have no money, buy me things.
I'm a fisher without water, I'm a tiger without teeth

I'm a devil with a halo, I'm still flying underneath.
I'm a ship without a harbour, I'm a liar, that is true, I'm a dancer without music

I'm still waiting here for you.
What I am, am I em, I am em, yes I'm emhead.
I'm a car without an engine, I'm a blank sheet on the cover

I like flesh, my name is Moby, I'm in love without a lover.
I'm a rat in the jet set, I'm a king without a crown

I'm so happy like a dead cat, finding dead mice all around.
I'm alone now in the crowd, searching for the girls and boys, don't know what the song's about,
I am emhead, making noise.


(Micha Kopp)

Dying Star

see me riding on the dying star
I can see you driving in your car
my obituary is in your bag
another day on your one-way-track
you kill the cats because it makes you happy
another tear of you is trying to escape
we were in love but now the wind is telling you
that my ambitions to come back to you are so true

this is not my name on the stone
this is not my game to come home

I fly for you
and I will take you back to outer space
I die for you
another soul - another lonely race

you took my soul in a misterious way
the place you want to be is not far away
but if you try to watch my heaven above
you will understand why I died for love

this is not my name on the stone
this is not my game to come home

I fly for you
and I will take you back to outer space
I die for you
another soul - another lonely race

see me riding on the dying star

(Micha Kopp)

No Risk No Fun

greenhouse for you and me
in your cells, your fins and in your feet
don't try to save us now
extricate your heart that tries to beat

and when you sleep tonight
you hypnotize technology
and when you sleep tonight
you'll love it like a melody
you only have to run
no risk no fun

greenhouse for you and me
and the facts and news become a tear
from now on you'll be sure
to be able to destroy your endless fear

and when you sleep tonight
you hypnotize technology
and when you sleep tonight
you'll love it like a melody
you only have to run
no risk no fun

(Micha Kopp)
