VERSE 1 train being delayed no one to blame rain but no cape shattering plates still lost no weight news of today terrorist bombs BRIDGE I don't see them I don't notice I don't care because I put my filters CHORUS On my glasses the gold keeps shining got my red shades look at those eyes like diamonds Sharpen sight to daily lifes excellence And I see the world through filters VERSE 2 her unreliability his sarcasm straightforward lies his exploitation Hey, who are you looking at? -My only love! BRIDGE I don't see them I don't notice I don't care because I put my filters CHORUS On my glasses the gold keeps shining got my red shades look at those eyes like diamonds Sharpen sight to daily lifes excellence And I see the world through filters VERSE 3 your perspective your emotions your deepest wishes your unconditional love your biggest fears keep on talking I won't listen BRIDGE I don't see them I don't notice I don't care because I put my filters CHORUS On my glasses the gold keeps shining got my red shades look at those eyes like diamonds Sharpen sight to daily lifes excellence And I see the world through filters

Something 06:10
VERSE 1 Without definition without rule we`re living all the days no demarcation we have no route, unscheduled little ways BRIDGE 1 I didn't think about future or end I just enjoy the great times we spend There's an image but very blear but in any case, something is clear. CHORUS I don't know what it is but there's something I wanna do. I'm not sure what it is but its something all about you. I don't know what it is but there's something I wanna do. I'm not sure what it is but its something all about you. CHORUS VERSE 2 Just intuition something inside / in sight don't want to think it through Just a sensation but somehow right Its something totally new BRIDGE 2 I didn't think about future or end I just enjoy the great times we spend There's an image but very blear but in any case, something is clear. CHORUS

Universes 06:12
CHORUS (2x) confusion confusion deep inside confusion confusion we all hide VERSE 1 confusion for which I knew two solutions i thought Choosing between "everythings an illusion" or "everythings me" (so "I'm everything" as conclusion) Choosing Between darkness of ambiguities or burning in light way too bright - i'm sure it is INTERLUDE Because if me equals reality therefore the universe works mentally, whats left worth living for, if there’s only me? CHORUS (2x)p confusion confusion deep inside confusion confusion we all hide VERSE 2 4 a.m., the night is long and the air is clean we travel towards light and warmth of a sunrise so far away something makes me wish we won't arrive and quietly we're still talking - thats reprise INTERLUDE Because if me equals reality therefore the universe works mentally, whats left worth living for, if there’s only me? CHORUS (2x) confusion confusion deep inside confusion confusion we all hide OUTRO It seems the only way out of hell on earth is looking through a lonely gods eyes It seems the only way out of illusion is being reality, flying high - but loosing sight the center of the universe is the loneliest place It's cold and we come closer till we're face to face And than we kiss and suddently we both know That two universes can meet and merge and that's what makes live beautiful

Goodbye 05:14
Tomorrow was tuesday everythings seems gray today will be yesterday who am I to fail Why could you not stay why could you not stay why did you not stay why did you not stay Now everythings too late, wish we could have said goodbye goodbye goodbye Could we meet again in some place far away if no one heard me praying who were you to fail Why could you not stay why could you not stay why did you not stay why did you not stay Now everythings too late, wish we could have said goodbye goodbye goodbye

Stress 05:50
My head full of thoughts that are straying around, confusing me my body pulls me down Gravity semms twice as strong My head looks for a pillow cause my neck won't hold the weight my body needs some silence the sloth in me governs all of me Allow myself to surrender swim in a sea of silence search what mildens the sorrows, what brings me back to my real life. The colours are prosy and grey and the pattern always the same No end day after day, no break to ease my choking My head looks for a pillow cause my neck won't hold the weight My body needs some silence the sloth in me governs all of me Allow myself to surrender swim in a sea of silence search what mildens the sorrows, what brings me back to my real life.

I'm Walking 05:08
CHORUS I'm walking alone in the field I'm walking alone in the field I'm walking alone in the field And life is wonderful calm And life is wonderful, life ist wonderful calm VERSE 1 Changing surroundings every step a new place mother earth kepps singing her song a hare lolloping The sky above me ready for take off soaring swarm of birds in the sky my mind is flying BRIDGE Far away there on a hill white and bright a church it's the aim I want to reach so I'm walking still Standing on the top in front of my little church I can see the whole way down happy on my own CHORUS I'm walking alone in the field I'm walking alone in the field I'm walking alone in the field And life is wonderful calm And life is wonderful, life ist wonderful

VERSE 1 (YASIN MUSIC) Hör auf die Geschichte von einem kleinen Jung der nicht mehr wollte als freiheit und die kunst der nie mehr wollte als sein leben zu beschreiben ohne so zu sein das die anderen es teilen ohne so zu sein das die anderen verstehn Ich hab nie gelebt wie ihr und das kostete mich Tränen ja das kostete im Leben schon Stunden voller leid doch Musik war für mich da hat meine Wunden geheilt ich hab mit ihr geteilt was ich mit euch nicht konnte mit ihr geweint weil ichs mit euch nicht wollte jede Zeile die ich schreib reisst ein loch in die wolke die meinen Kopf so vernebelt weil der Rest mich enttäuschte und an Tagen als ich dachte Ich schaff es nicht mehr griff ich zu Stift und Papier und öffnete mein Herz nein ich öffnete noch mehr und bekämpfte so den Schmerz denn ich hatte nur die Wahl schreiben oder sterben Bridge So what we're doing here, why do we try? But that's the point of adventures we won't stop! Refrain No matter wheter lights are falling or speakers suddenly fail. we won't stop playing the music, we won't stop having fun! Verse 2 Ich wollt ewig im Leben die szene bewegen dagegen im Regen benebelt verstehn dass stehend doch bebend die Welt unter Tränen die Wahrheit zur Lüge und Hass hin verdreht doch schreiben statt sterben heisst weiser zu werden und irgendwann dann seine lines zu vererben und weiter zu lernen Musik gleicht den Sternen weil bei Dunkelheit ihr strahlendes Licht für mich fehlt entfernt von der Gesellschaft weil ich ohnehin kein Geld mach schreib ich meine Zeilen mit blut auf dieses Textblatt egal was mich verletzt hat ich steh immer wieder auf gebe nicht kleinbei und setz immer einen drauf hab legenden bei mir ob Pac oder Hendrix liebe Musik aber nur wenn sie echt ist Beyond kamen zu mir das ist der Grund warum ich schrieb von KN in die Welt One love für die Musik Refrain No matter wheter lights are falling or speakers suddenly fail. We won't stop playing the music, We won't stop having fun!

about

From the Confusion Manifesto:
"An author once wrote a beautiful text on how you stop loving another person in the moment you think you fully know them. It's the same with everything else. Confusion means astonishment, confusion means surprise, confusion means loving curiosity. Confusion means listening, not talking.
You will be open – open toward your next one, open towards your environment, open towards yourself. You will be curious about change."

FREE digital copy of our live record "The Basement Session" is included.
