From where comes the light?
From where comes the light?
[intro]
[Refrain 1]
Clouds have forecasted rain
Truth gave birth to lies again
Once again the days grow short, the nights grow long
Hope is gone
Sky is losing all its light
There's no light left anywhere
Once again no answers for a puzzled mind
Where has gone the light?
[verse 1]
How many stones need to hit someone’s back Before it becomes stiff as a tree
It’s as if - the same dog leash - is attached to you all —
You think I was one of you. No, guys, it’s you who once used to be free.
Go wherever you want now - it’s really your call.
[Refrain 2]
Clouds have forecasted rain
Truth gave birth to lies again
Once again the days grow short, the nights grow long
Hope is gone
Sky is losing all its light
There's no light left anywhere
Once again no answers for a puzzled mind
Where has gone the light?
[verse 2]
The Sounds from your land are quieter each day, which means I’m sailing away
And it’s fine that I’m on my own and I still have not arrived
But believe me, guys: my small wooden boat still keeps me dry and afloat
And what’s very important, My compass is working alright
(instrumental - refrain)
[Refrain 3]
In the clouds dries the rain
Truth has vanquished lies again
Once again the nights grow short, the days grow long
Doubt is gone
Sky’s regaining all its light
There’s so much light everywhere
Once again no answers for a puzzled mind -
From where has come this light ?
The Candle
The Candle
[Verse 1]
Sometimes there come the days when hands are falling.
No strength, no music and no words remain.
In such a time I parted from my dwelling
And never asked anyone to ease my pain.
I wanted just to run to hide my sorrow.
To lock the door and throw away the key.
But I believed that there is hope tomorrow.
While there is light while burns the candle free
I still believed that there is hope tomorrow.
While there is light , while burns the candle free.
[Verse 2]
And no one could force me to make a sound.
For silence is the only place to start.
But once the song gets my feet off the ground,
It will be tough to keep my mouth shut!
And though the days grow short, the road seems so long,
The shadows in the dark - all I can see.
A thousand times I'll rise again and move on.
While there is light, what burns the candle free.
A thousand times I'll start again and move on.
While there is light, what burns the candle free.

Cuckoo
Cuckoo
[Verse 1]
Nobody argues with nature
The summer is gone, the sky’s turning gray.
and yet defying the weather,
A silly cuckoo keeps singing away
His friends have long since departed,
Calling him to join their flight:
“Tomorrow it will start snowing
Who’ll need your songs on winter's night?”
[Chorus]
But he, a poor soul, could not understand:
Why should he go, Why follow those who fly away?
For his forest is here, His songs, And His homeland are here
And who will need his songs, in springtime,
When it's warm and everyone sings, all the time
And who said that singing stops when cold winds blew?
No, it is not true
What a silly cuckoo!
What a silly cuckoo!
What a silly cuckoo!
[Verse 2]
People bundle up in fur coats
And hide their faces from the bitter air.
“He must be really so silly.
Who needs this daring, who’ll even care?”
The streets are covered with snow.
He has not managed to change a thing.
If only, maybe, he just warmed up a little
The hearts of those who heard him sing.
[Chorus]
But he, a poor soul, could not understand:
Why should he go, Why follow those who fly away?
For his forest is here, His songs, And His homeland are here
And who will need his songs in springtime,
When it's warm and everyone sings all the time
And who said that singing stops when cold winds blew?
No, it is not true
What a silly cuckoo!
What a silly cuckoo!
What a silly cuckoo!

Rituals of unmeasured nonsense (On a turning plane - Ode to the zealots… )
Rituals of unmeasured nonsense (On a turning plane - Ode to the zealots… )
[verse 1]
We stood on a plane
With constantly changing reflection
Observing the law
that set all objects in motion
Repeating the words
whose nonsense could not be measured
With great zeal and pleasure,
with great zeal and pleasure.
[verse 2]
There are a few here,
spending their time in ritual dances,
To any good question
replying with the same empty answers.
And looking around
I see that their presence
Is not accidental,
Not at all accidental
[instrumental]
[verse 1]
We stood on a plane
With constantly changing reflection
Observing the law
that set all objects in motion
Repeating the words
whose nonsense could not be measured
With great zeal and pleasure,
with great zeal and pleasure.

[intro]
[verse]
How many stars above us shine for us eternally with solemn grace.
How many ships in the heavens are sailing - to ensure each one of us loved.
How many books have been written explaining the sorrows that we have to face.
How many scientific discoveries claim That we’re meant to become something else.
[chorus]
Don’t waste your time
My dear, don’t waste your time
The sun is reflected in every snowflake. -
Nothing will happen to us.
Don’t waste your time
[instrumental]
[verse]
All around the world there are neighbors and tenants
Roaming like shadows and ghosts.
And as we draw closer,
We suddenly see our own eyes and hearts in every soul.
We spend our lives watching movies Convincing us love has been lost.
But as we step outside, we discover
That this love never ended at all.
[chorus]
Don’t waste your time
My dear, don’t waste your time
The sun is reflected in every snowflake. -
Nothing will happen to us.
Don’t waste your time
Hmmm…

[intro]
[verse 1]
I’ve become surrounded
by the wicked guys
Seemingly so mighty,
cowards in disguise
Sweet are their speeches
Sour their deeds
Fed by corporate money
Smiling hypocrites
[refrain]
It has been for so-o long
We've been marching all alone
Bare feet through broken glass
Stormy weather’s waiting for us
But if, you show, more kindness-and
Just try a little more
The sky will clear, the gate will open
At the heaven’s door
[verse 2]
Shall we flee or fight?
Too late to decide
The sky is bleeding badly
We need to heal the sky
The spring will come no doubt
After dark cold winter nights
With courage and some patience
You’ll soon enjoy the light
[refrain]
It has been for so-o long
We've been marching all alone
Bare feet through broken glass
Stormy weather’s waiting for us
But if, you show, more kindness and,
Just try a little more
The sky will clear, and the gate be opened
At the heaven’s door
[instrumental]
[verse 3]
Truth is like a river
It will find the way to flow
It’ll feed and purify
All those who want to grow
As for those others
Who just follow the headlines
The nature will take care of them
they'll dry up with their own lies
[refrain]
It has been for so-o long
We've been marching all alone
Bare feet through broken glass
Stormy weather’s waiting for us
But all you need is truth and love
to shield yourself from wind
You'll get strength from high above
And that's how we will win
[refrain]
It has been for so long
We've been marching all alone
Bare feet through broken glass
Stormy weather’s waiting for us
But all you need is truth and love
to shield yourself from wind
You'll get the strength from high above
And that's, WHY, we, will, win
