Xenia The album is amazing! The older tracks sound really great! Thank you Helge for a really great piece of work! I was looking forward to it! Unfortunately my favourite "Wenn der Schmerz vergeht" is not here ;-) But all in all the tracks are wonderful! Now you have to find the possibility to perform them live! :-) Favorite track: The little man.

syrdon This is a very special album. A master at his craft. Very powerful with crisp beats, unique keys, strong vocals and a mystic feel. Certainly one of the very best of 2018. These songs have bite.

First class! Favorite track: The room.

Wiegand - Down the memory lane there is always something waiting time is pushing further on we're dealing with limitations what could be and never will we believe in hope and faith and that someday we might be free draw me a picture of our future, you cannot clearly see. driven by alien operators our days are burning down the little flower on a road flattened by wheels of rushing cars where are all those people heading what is waiting at the end close your eyes just for a moment and tell me you're alive. the ground is shaking, walls come tumbling down the sound of breaking chains echoes through the air no limits and no boundaries to obey just open space for us to stay we're stomping over fields of grabbing hands they’re trying to reach us, we do not care. Let's pretend there only you and me forever wild, forever free do you remember when it started the moment where we lost control typing words instead of talking walking on a fragile path how could we become so restless where’s the precious gap for us may you please kill all my bad thoughts and the voices in my head. the ground is shaking, walls come tumbling down the sound of breaking chains echoes through the air no limits and no boundaries to obey just open space for us to stay we're stomping over fields of grabbing hands they’re trying to reach us, we do not care. Let's pretend there only you and me forever wild, forever free let’s take a trip down memory lane preserve the memories and the good times we once shared a flickering candle remains in the dark a beacon for ourselves that always remembers who we are. A flickering candle remains in the dark Casting its shadows on the places we’ve been A beacon for ourselves and for the good times we once shared.

Wiegand - Floating away I - I feel that I need to let it go now again. It is time to disconnect me from this mad world for a while, for a while. Off - turn off this world now and leave those tunes there alone. On - switch on this lights to a perfect refuge of joy. And we are here together we stand Well I just stay here forever with you. Let the liquid flow and celebrate the show wave your hands and dance yourself away tonight floating away. You - put on your black dress let me adore you tonight. There - there is a saying that we’re the children of the night.

Falling 06:24
Falling In a screaming silence I just sit here staring I’m afraid of my thoughts And even scared of who I am or who I’ve become after all those years and still you’re here with me. while I’m drifting slowly and towards the unknown I keep wondering why this building’s still intact not yet collapsed like a house of cards on an icy ground my hell lies deep beneath. All the words I’ve spoken all the things I’ve created I did it all with love now the dreams are lost in vain because of me. I keep on falling through the sky with broken wings attached I’m freezing the moment and the pain might go away While everything’s burning I light up another flame yes, maybe I’m drowning I’ve lost my anchor anyway. All the walls around me I created wisely i don’t care about your questionmarks and help My world is fine I’m healing myself as I always did a thousand times before. And if you ever find a a little crack in those walls try to rescue me and maybe it’s not too late or maybe I’m gone and so is your pain that’s been haunting you now better days will come. In a screaming silence I just sit here staring I wanted to be different not tortured by my insanity.

The room 05:59
Wiegand - The room A slamming door, now darkness surrounds me my shouts reflected by invisible walls the sound outside seem to be getting quieter from the groan of machines that brought me here. I need to go back, I do not belong here what is this place, please tell me why There was no need for a change, it’s just so hard to understand those well-meaning words - doesn’t make sense at all, not at all. And in the end it’s always the same that I’m the only one here to blame But this might be the right place to reflect where I stand And the future I will embrace and all the demons I have to face: It’s time to move on! As my eyes adapt to the darkness the neon sign blinks “this is not the end” I’m counting doors and ways, with smiling people welcoming me eager to know - what is my story to tell.

Hideaway 05:06
Wiegand - Hideaway In this room this is you beneath an old giant clock threatening from above you’ve tried to hide long enough. The escape routes you know are more or less all sealed up Finally you arrived the turning point of your life. Since the first time there were arguments why this is not the time and in company of good old friends asking ain’t worth a dime. The illusion of a perfect world was never part of your dreams instead the nightmares that were hunting you showed yourself tied up and lying in chains. With the chances ahead your feel darkness instead and you’re asking yourself what to do Leave the sorrows behind Step away from the blind Down the road where she’s waiting for you While the time goes by you look around Where is everyone gone? You hear the ticking of the clock not far away could it be it’s time for you to move on? Should you bring someone into this world A safe place anymore? While the angel’s walking by your side Maybe fate is close as never before. Get up, move along, leave it all behind what are you searching for, what are you trying to find? You’ve come so far and there’s no need to start again to face the truth that in the end it’s all the same. Get out, free yourself, and watch the walls collide, what are you frightened of, what are you trying to hide? You’ve come so far and there’s no need to start again to face the truth that in the end it’s all the same

Time 05:00
Wiegand - Time I’m traveling back in time to the places where we used to be back to the sceneries of my youth they’re passing by in front of me No selfies to take and no stories to stream we were fearless and free while the time covers all and old friends moved away the spirit remains from a distant point of view and after years of growing up those magic places of my youth are bound forever in my heart worn out districts of my past the engraved pictures of a youth against the time against the time The abandoned football field Where nature finally won the game And the store across the street has closed its doors many years ago. and we entered the nights until the break of dawn the sand beneath our bare feet while the last dance is done and the lights are back on the spirit remains

Superheld 05:17
Wiegand - Superheld Ich merke wie du mich berührst doch deine Hände ruhn’ bei dir. Wenn ich hier alleine sitz weiß ich dass deine Blicke bei mir sind. Was gestern noch unmöglich war ist heut’ erstaunlich weil es einfach ist. Die Frage deren Antwort ich dir überließ, verstehe ich nun ein stück weit mehr. Ich schau in dein Gesicht und seh mein Spiegelbild und in deinem Arm bin ich ein Superheld Sag wirst du für immer bei mir sein? Ich hab noch so viel Platz in meinem Kopf, und es ist mir egal was als nächstes kommt, solang’ ich dir davon erzählen kann. Das Drehbuch für das Spiel von gestern ist heut schon nicht mehr aktuell. Die Dinge fügen sich zusammen und ergeben plötzlich einen Sinn. Zeit die vorher endlos schien ist nun sortiert und scheinbar aufgeteilt. Doch furchtlos und mit Mut den du mir gibst mach ich mich auf und rette die Welt. Aus dem Weg denn hier komm ich ich sprech in schonungsloser Ehrlichkeit und weiß nicht ob du damit umgehen kannst. Ich bin ein Superheld! Wenn du die Welt durch meine Augen siehst, dann weißt du dass ich erst am Anfang steh’. Ich lass dich mit meinem Herzen sehn’, denn ich bin dein Superheld!

Wiegand - The little man The lights of an ordinary day became weaker, fade to grey and marked the end of our daily routine. At that night, life would never be the same as it taught us. Not prepared, but overwhelmed and aware of the fact: He has arrived, out of the blue. Empty streets, chasing the blue while other people were dreaming. A silent hope, that the light of life will shine upon him . I was loosing the time, all the demons of mine were not here anymore. In the dawn of the night I knew reality has beaten the dream. A small and fragile body, resting in the safety of our arms. No more sorrows, no more worries. You took away our breath with your first cry. Welcome to this world, this is your day one. I've waited my whole life for you, not knowing you at all! Every single smile, will melt my heart away. I will keep you safe from harm, keep watching over you. Now you mean the world to me and it's true that you are the greatest gift in my life. You mean the world to me, there's no doubt I'm feeling it over and over again! It is time, to lift the veil of the path that is waiting for the little man, to draw his footprints in an untouched universe. There's so much to explore, states of happyness will struggle with loneliness But one thing's for sure, we will always be there for you.

Wiegand - Waiting in line Client focused serving attitude Used to receive results prepared to go the extra mile Presentation skills MBA preferred Demonstrate integrity Thinks outside the box Outstanding leadership Communication skills A degree in sales and marketing or business related field Highly motivated With sense of empathy A proven record of.. Whatever. Here comes another call Put on your smiling face and you will tell them once again how great you are! Your skills are shining bright and you might show them all you know their questions well, even before they ask. But somehow You‘re wondering why It always feels Like waiting in line? Hang up the phone Your handwritten notes You‘ve seen them before It‘s always the same. What drives you on How far will you go Where will you be To find inner peace. To find inner peace. Noble suits - as you wish a three day stubble - a brave step in here a shiny car - get off my way hotel meetings - empty eyes.
