Nobody Home

Note: 

This lyrics cannot be more appropriate right now.

I've got a little black book with my poems in 
Got a bag with toothbrush and comb in
When I'm good dog, they sometimes throw me a bone in

I got elastic bands keepin' my shoes on
Got those swollen-hand blues
I got thirteen channels of shit on the TV to choose from

I've got electric light
And I've got second sight
I got amazing powers of observation
And that is how I know
When I try to get through
On the telephone to you

There'll be nobody home

I've got the obligatory Hendrix perm
And the inevitable pinhole burns
All down my favorit satin shirt

I've got nicotine stains on my fingers
I've got a silver spoon on a chain
Got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains

I got wild staring eyes
And I've got a strong urge to fly
But I got nowhere to fly to

Ooh, babe when you pick up the phone
There's still nobody home

I've got a pair of Gohills boots 
But I got fading roots

Wake me up!

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Like my father's come to pass 
[Fifteen] years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Ring out the bells again
Like we did when spring began
Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Like my father's come to pass
[Fifteen] years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends

Purple rain

I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted to one time to see you laughing
I only wanted to see you
Laughing in the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you
Bathing in the purple rain

I never wanted to be your weekend lover
I only wanted to be some kind of friend
Baby, I could never steal you from another
It's such a shame that our friendship had to end

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you
Underneath the purple rain

Honey, I know, I know
I know times are changing
It's time we all reach out
For something new, that means you too

You say you want a leader
But you can't seem to make up your mind
I think you better close it
And let me guide you to the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
If you know what I'm singing about here
C'mon, raise your hand

Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you
Only want to see you
In the purple rain

This...this damnest thing...

If only I could shake this bloody thing...
If only...

"Where do I take this pain of mine
I run but it stays right by my side"

So true right now...so true!

"I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Get along with voices inside of my head
You're trying to save me, stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy

Well, that's nothing
Well, that's nothing..."

Mit einer Spieluhr in der hand

Ein kleiner Mensch strib nur zum Schein
wollt ganz alleine sein
Das kleine Herz stand sill für Stunden
So hat man er für tod befunden
Es wird verscharrt in nassem Sand

Praise you


We've come a long long way together
Through the hard times and the good
I have to celebrate you baby
I have to praise you like I should

DL & JS

So two of my favorit talk show hosts are leaving; David Letterman is retiring tomorrow after 31 years on air and  Jon Stewart is soon leaving The Daily Show after 16 years and this makes me sad.


Their comedy and sense of humor appealed to me very much and I'm sure it is the case for many people as well. Eddie Vedder performed on Late Show last night and I found that the choice of the song was very appropriate. They will never be replaced for all those who enjoyed these two entertainers and their smart and somewhat twisted humor.

As Eddie Vedder once put it "Can't find a better man" indeed!

You will know

When I was a young boy
I had visions of fame
They were wild, they were free, they were blessed with my name

And then I grew older
I saw what's to see
That the world is full of pain
And my dreams they left me

And I got stronger
And tired of the pain
That's when I picked up the pieces
And I regained my name

And I fought hard y'all
To carve out my place
And right now you look at me 
And it all seems in vain

A tribute

"I want to say a little something that's long overdue
The disrespect to women has got to be through
To all the mothers and sisters and wives and friends
I want offer my love and respect to the end"

And then...

I fell.

...almost after 48 hours, I just fell.

"I can feel it comin' back again
Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from the centre of the Earth again

I can feel it..."

All Those Yesterdays: A letter from Pearl Jam to me

Don't you think you oughtta rest?
Don't you think you oughtta lay your head down?
Don't you think you want to sleep?
Don't you think you oughtta lay your head down tonight?

Don't you think you've done enough?
Oh, don't you think you've got enough, well maybe...
You don't think there's time to stop
There's time enough for you to lay your head down, tonight, tonight

Let it wash away
All those yesterdays

What are you running from?
Taking pills to get along
Creating walls to call your own
So no one catches? Drifting off and
Doing all the things we all do

Let them wash away
All those yesterdays
All those yesterdays
All those paper plates

You've got time, you've got time to escape
There's still time, it's no crime to escape
It's no crime to escape, it's no crime to escape
There's still time, so escape
It's no crime, crime...

CHOP SUEY!

I don't think you trust
In, my, self-righteous suicide
I, cry, when angels deserve to die

Father! Father! Father! Father!
"Father into your hands, I commend my spirits"*
Father into your hands
Why have you forsaken me
In your eyes forsaken me
In your thoughts forsaken me
In your heart forsaken me


* Luke 23:46

Everybody hurts

When your day is long and the night
The night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go
Everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go (hold on)
When you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on

Everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand, oh, no!
Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life
The days and nights are long
When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes

So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
(Hold on, hold on)

Everybody hurts
You are not alone

KG is saying now:

"I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Yeah yeah!

Freedom...Freedom...Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take

Freedom...Freedom...Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take..."

When I'm gone

There's another world inside of me
That you may never see
There're secrets in this life
That I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away
Or maybe I'm just blind

So hold me when I'm gone
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one 
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be here
So love me when I'm gone...

"The nights of wonder...with friends surrounded" just like the good ol' days

I'm at home...catching up with friends...hanging out with all my boys whom I have missed their company so badly in the past couple of years...reliving the good memories and having tons of - and I literally mean 'tons' of - pure, shear fun. Such an amazing feeling to be around the people that you truly love: close family and dear friends.

My spirits are high...so high...despite the low speed of the internet which is really annoying but I've got so many other things that keeps me happily busy.

I should do this more often...way more often!

Headin' to THR

Here I come but I ain't the same
Mama, I'm coming home..."

'This' cannot be more fitting for this moment!

Song: Time
Artist: Pink Floyd
Written by: Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Richard Wright

Ticking away the moments
That make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours
In an off-hand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground
In your home town
Waiting for someone or something
To show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long
And there time is still kill today

And then the one day you find 
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

And you run and you run
to catch up with the sun
But it's sinking

Racing around
To come up behind you again

The sun is the same
In a relative way
But you're older

Shorter of breath
And one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter
Never seem to find time

Plans that either come to naught
Or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desperation
Is the English way

The time is gone
The song is over
Thought I'd something more to say

Home
Home again
I like to be here
When I can

When I come home
Cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones
Beside the fire

Far away
Across the field 
Tolling on the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell

Another midday prayer

"With the hands held high into a sky so blue
As the [fjäll] opens up to swallow you"
