Quickbourn Album

(Music: Thomas Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

From the airport in a Yellow Cab
Ride a horse with a broken back
To a home or what used to be
A place of living
Now a cemetary

I see your picture
I hear you call my name
And trace amounts of a long lost hope
Reflame

This ain't reality
It's not a dream come true

This ain't reality
The truth that I persued

This ain't reality
It's just a point of view

Lost and delirious!

There was a home and now it's gone
Where's the place where I belonged
Without you the world is cold
And my story stays untold

This is the year of the underdog
I find me thinking looking at the clock
Of the tower as I hear the bell
What it means
Only time can tell

Am I dreaming?
Am I dreaming this up?
I hope!

What a cold place
What a cold place this is
Aha

I had a memory of you and me
Alive
Now that you're gone and I'm dead
Will I survive?

This ain't reality
It's not a dream come true

This ain't reality
The truth that I persued

This ain't reality
It's just my point of view

Lost and delirious!

To the airport in a Yellow Cab
To a plane with a broken back
Destination: State of mind
Closing in on the borderline

(Music: Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

From a distance I hear the call
Someone calling my name
Begging me to tear down the wall

This is what I'm telling you
They're calling it the zone

This is where I'm going now
I'm making it my home

Game of chance
Cash advance
At first glance
Dance

All alone
Overthrown
Wishing bone
Stone

From a distance I hear the call
Someone calling my name
Begging me to tear down the wall

This is what I'm telling you
They're calling it the zone

Once you got inside it
They will never let you go

This is what I'm telling you
They're calling it the zone

This is where I'm going now
I'm making it my home

Game of chess
Home address
Disposess
Mess

Christ within
Deadly sin
Next of kin
Skin

Prison cell
Wishing well
Dizzy spell
Hell

Circumstance
Witness stand
Helping hand
Friend

(Music: Thomas Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

Seen a lot of rain
Seen a lot of fire
Seen a lot of people
Not acting on desire

Hey, what are you made of?
Say, are you strong enough?

If you want some
Come and get it!

If you want some
Come on!

Seen a lot of places
And lots of tired faces
Of people, as it seems
Who've given up their dreams

Hey, are you still awake?
Dream! There's a lot at stake

Show me your reality
And will call you fool

Living in insanity
Can hardly count as cool

If you really want your dreams to come true
Do not hazitate, go carry on through!

If you really want your dreams to come true
Do not hazitate, go carry on through!

If you want some
Come and get it!

If you want some
Come on!

(soli)

See what you can do
And see where you can go
As long as there are dreams
There'll be always hope

Run past the boundaries and
Find, life is on your hands
Do what you're supposed to do
Know what you ought to know

If you want some
Come and get it!

(Music: Thomas Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

Look at me
I am back again
It's been long but now I'm back again
I'm back again

Look at you
You have grown so fast
Do you remember what I told you last
I told you that I

Had to go and fight between the lines
Face a terror of my own design

And then I
Turned around
Turned around
Till I saw the light

Find a way
Find my path
Out of the night

Moving on
Moving on
Till I‘m home again

Take my place
Claim my space
I turned around

I'm back again!
I'm back again!

Coming home
Coming back again
I've been longing to see you my friend
(See you again)

See us playing, laughing in the sun
For so long I have been on the run
Remember I have...

Turned around
Turned around
Till I saw the light

Find a way
Find my path
Out of the night

Moving on
Moving on
Now I‘m back again

Take my place
Claim my space
I turned around

I'm back again!
I'm back again!

Look at us
This is home again
Only time can take away the pain

But we're playing, laughing in the sun
No more fighting, being on the run

No fighting, no more ...

(solo)

Year after year
I've been searching
My mind

Bitter sweet mem‘ries
Were all
I could find

I saw you
So far, far away
(backings)

Now I home again
I'm back again
I'm back again yeah

Now I home again
I'm home again
I'm back again yeah

Now I home again
I'm back again

And there is
You

(Music: Thomas Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

All that's in your eyes
Tears and stars and lies
All the things I've seen and more

Little did we share
Little did I care
Now you're gone I'm lost in town

Lost in town
I am lost in town

It seems I've never known my way around
Without your love I'm a stranger to this town
Yeah

Ghost I am today
Shadows calling me
To the dark side of the road

Pale light of the moon
Shines into your room
That you share with some one new

Lost in town
I am lost in town

It seems I've never known my way around
Without your love I'm a stranger to this town
Yeah

(Music: Thomas Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

When I came to 'round 3 am
On a sidewalk up in Angels Camp
I smelled her perfume still in the air
And then I knew who had dumped me here

She was my Straight Shooter
Right in the heart
Straight Shooter
Hittin' me real damn hard

Straight Shooter
You made me bleed
Straight Shooter
Kickin' my love with your feet

Straight Shooter why 'd you leave me here?
Straight Shooter like you just don't care
Killing me in that painful way
After loving me you blew my heart away

You hit my hard!

Cold is creeping inside my coat
I try to get up but my motions float
Got to find my Straight Shooter straight away
And make her pay for what she's done to me

My Straight Shooter
Right in the heart
Straight Shooter
Hittin' me real damn hard

My Straight Shooter
You made me bleed
Straight Shooter
Kickin' my love with her feet

Straight Shooter I will find you yeah
Where you hide baby I don't care
You won't fool my twice you're not that smart
And when I find you I will shoot you right in the heart

Straight Shooter
Why, why, why, why?
Straight Shooter!

My Straight Shooter
My Straight Shooter
Why 'd you leave me to die?

My Straight Shooter
My Straight Shooter
Why 'd you hurt me this way?

(Music: Thomas Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

No one sees the things that I see
Right before my open eyes

Future winds are blowing icy
Baby, what a big surprise

Deep within and long forgotten
Lies the truth we knew so well

That if we just close our eyes
We'll behold the gates of hell

Someday in our father's land
When our dreams have turned to sand

We'll remind ourselves
Life was something else

When we still had a chance
To change the world

Globalize this!
Globalize this!

One day when our children ask me
What I've done to save this planet

I'll be running out of answers
'Cause they're so darn right, godammit!

Tell my boy to not go playing
Next to the atomic waste

See his mother staring at him
Tears roll down her weary face

What have we done?
What have we done?

Someday when the future ends
Will we finally understand

That we had it all
And still wanted more

But the world we once knew
Is gone for good

Globalize this!
Globalize this!

Stay out of the sun
And don't you stay outside too long
'Cause too much danger goes around out there my child!

When the sun will set
The hounds of darkness come to get
a bite of flesh and bone
Be home before tonight!

Globalize this!
Globalize this!
Yeah, globalize this!

Someday in our father's land
When our dreams have turned to sand

We'll remind ourselves
Life was something else

That we had it all
And still wanted more

(Music: Thomas Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

Seven years or maybe more
We've been waiting for his second coming
We've almost forgotten 'bout the pain he brings
Now the engines of his ships are humming

We must try to reach the walls
But the sky's already alight
Keep on running as fast as you can
To the weapons, to war and fight

Can you see him?
Right there!

Run for life
The mad man has arrived
Burn all the bridges just as you cross
Don't leave anyone behind

This is the second time
It'll be his last time
This is the second time
This time we will strike back

This is the second time
It'll be his last time
This is the second time
This time we will strike back

We will strike back

Run for life
To the battlements and fight
The mad man is coming to pay his debt
We're gonna make him bleed allright

Can you see him?
He'll fall!

Thirty days and thirty nights
The air is still burning red
The fighting continues as long as we live
Until all his evil is dead

We cannot even start to hope
To ever see the sun again
To see the smoke clear on a life without fear
Unless the Lord of terror has been slain

Boom - boom - boom - boom!

This was his second time
Now it was his last time
It was the second time
And now he's dead

This was his second time
Now it was his last time
This was his second time
And now he's dead

This was his second time
Now it was his last time
It was the second time
And now he's dead

This was his second time
Now it was his last time
This was his second time
And now he's dead

He's dead
He's dead
He's dead
He's dead

(Music: Thomas Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

Sometimes there's a light in the dark of the night
With the morning still lightyears away
Just like magic out of a box
Like rabbits out of hats

You think you are dreaming but that's not the case
You feel every step that you take
You're wide awake

This is the way it feels when you
Walk on a waterfall
And you
Find that the moon is rising out of sight
And the world's on fire

The cosmos is empty and you're in control
Of nothing and nothing at all
No magic not even a box
No rabbits and no hats

There is an angel singing the blues
And you find that this angel is you
Singing out of voice

Gotta find a way outta this dream
Gotta find a way to awake
Gotta find a way outta this dream
Outta this dream
Outta this dream
Gotta find a way outta this dream
Gotta find a way to awake
Gotta find a way outta this dream
Outta this dream
Outta this dream

There are no magic spells left and
The universe sleeps tonight
And you
Find that the sun is only just a dream
And you start to scream
Scream
Scream
Scream

You kind of dance
Throught the mirror
And on the other side
There is you

This is the way it feels when you
Walk on a waterfall
And you
Find that the moon is rising out of sight
And the world's on fire

And when you finally fall back asleep
And forget all about what has been
Strange like magic out of a box
Like rabbits out of hats

Next day you awake feeling strangely alarmed
But you could not explan how or why
Like you're in denial

Gotta find a way outta this dream
Gotta find a way to awake
Gotta find a way outta this dream
Outta this dream
Outta this dream
Gotta find a way outta this dream
Gotta find a way to awake
Gotta find a way outta this dream
Outta this dream
Outta this dream

(Music / Lyrics: AdMeyer)

Katie
How come you’re so far away again
Seems like you’re somebody else
And not my Katie at all

Katie
What do you see in the distance
And
Why can’t you share it with me
You know I am your friend

Katie
Katie where do you go
When you‘re out of your soul
Please let me know
Baby don’t go

Katie
How does it feel when you’re out of touch
Is it comfort for you
When there’s nobody around

Katie
It is allright I won’t ask too much
But please don’t shut me out
Don’t just leave me behind

Katie
Katie where do you go
When you‘re out of your soul
Please let me know
Baby don’t go

Hey
Katie where do you go
Katie where do you go
When you‘re out of your soul
Katie where do you go
Where do you go

Hey
Katie where do you go
Katie where do you go
When you‘re out of your soul
Baby please let me know
’Cos I need you so

Katie
It’s not that I wouldn’t understand
That sometimes you need to go
To a place of your own

Katie
Still you should know that you’re not alone
You can go anywhere
I’ll be waiting for you

Katie
Into your dreams I can’t follow
When you’re far far away
Please don’t leave me behind
Open your mind

Hey
Katie where do you go
Katie where do you go
When you‘re out of your soul
Katie where do you go
Where do you go

Hey
Katie where do you go
Katie where do you go
When you‘re out of your soul
Baby please let me know
’Cos I need you so

Katie
Into your dreams I can’t follow
When you’re far far away
Please don’t leave me behind
Open your mind
I need to know
Where do you go
Katie I love you so

Katie
When you’ll emerge from the clouds
And it’s Heaven again
And you’ll open your mind
You won’t leave me behind (This time)

Hey
Katie where do you go
Katie where do you go
When you‘re out of your soul
Katie where do you go
Where do you go
