starkstrom

cold rooms echo, the nights are long,
silence hums like a broken song.
i’ll create what the world denied,
shape my love from the dark inside.

copper veins in a fragile frame,
breathless spark as I speak your name.
lightning burns through the wires inside,
dead no more, you have come alive.

starkstrom! du leihst mir deine macht!
entzuendest schatten, erhellst die nacht!
starkstrom! du brennst wie feuerflut,
zerreißt das herz, und kochst mein blut!
starkstrom! du spielst ein boeses spiel,
verbrennst in mir jedes gefuehl.

see her shine in the light I made,
every line and each curve displayed.
perfect form for the world to see,
she is art, and she came from me.

i have seen what my hands have done,
life I forged now becomes undone.
not the love I had dreamed to find,
so I turned away, left her behind.

starkstrom! du leihst mir deine macht!
entzuendest schatten, erhellst die nacht!
starkstrom! du brennst wie feuerflut,
zerreißt das herz, und kochst mein blut!
starkstrom! du malst das abendrot,
kroenst meine liebe mit dem tod.

du stellst mich an den pranger
verleugnest unser glueck
schenkst meiner liebe zweifel
entfernst dich stueck fuer stueck

du sezierst meine seele
steh ruecklings an der wand
mein herz laesst du verbluten
du haeltst es in der hand

was, nur was hab ich dir angetan?
dass du statt liebe nur hass anhaeufst
was, verdammt geht dir bloß durch den kopf?
wenn du auf rosenblueten amok laeufst
was, nur was kann ich noch fuer dich tun?
wenn du einen krieg mit mir nicht scheust
und scheinbar rein gar nichts bereust

die messen sind gesungen
es gibt kein’ letzten tanz
trug dich auf meinen haenden
strafst mich mit ignoranz

was, ja was hast du mir angetan?
bin verhext von deiner engelsgestalt
wie, nur wie soll ich dich je versteh’n?
wenn sich dein duft in meinem kopf festkrallt
wie, nur wie soll das hier weitergehn?
wenn in mir nur leere widerhallt
denn deine stimme klingt so kalt

i burned for you, i bled for heat
begged you, ”paint it. make it sweet."
for an hour with you I would fight
but you gave only black ’n white.

sketched a dream on naked skin,
sails up high, let fire in.
we could’ve torn the sky apart
but you ran scared from the start.

i'm inside you, can't get out
you're the silence, i’m the shout.
i’m inside you, can’t escape
you're the cut, and i’m the shape.
felt the end, and let it hit
love was art. you ruined it.

dropped my anchor, raised my frame
lived for you, without shame.
let the current pull me through
but you said “friends”, when I said “you”.

told you raw, stripped down, exposed
fed on stares, your silence froze.
colors bled, the white went blind
but you felt nothing, when I stayed kind.

i'm inside you, can't get out
you're the silence, i’m the shout.
i’m inside you, can’t escape
you're the cut, and i’m the shape.
felt the end, and let it hit
love was art. you ruined it.

now you're carved in every line
each new stroke, still not mine.
you jumped free into the dark
i stay trapped inside the spark.

see no fear inside your stare
you're not cruel, just unaware.
canvas bursts in violent hue
i decode what’s left of you.

fever night, no plan, no light
kiss and sweat, no regret
thrust too deep, pulse too fast
bodies burn, truth won't last

no protection, no escape
just the fall, just the shape
just the heart, till it rips us apart

low red light, straps pulled tight
leather kiss, latex hiss
she commands, you obey
crawl for her, and you will stay

no correction, no remorse
just the need, just the force
just the heart, till it tears us apart

locked inside, no place to hide
cold steel bed, thoughts half-dead
but one glance, starts the fire
guard leans in, calls you “liar”

no objection, no refrain
just the bite, just the chain
just the heart, till it bleeds us apart

i hear your voice call out for me
like incense rising silently
your scent has wrapped around my brain
a silent spell I can’t contain

your parted thighs, a sacred gate
i step inside, surrender fate
my lips now drift toward your sea
you let them in, you set them free

i feel your sweetest sweat tonight
your musk beneath the silver light
your sweetest sweat, it feels so right
I kiss your shape, i lick your fire
each drop you give stokes my desire

my tongue explores your tender ground
where every sigh becomes a sound
you gave me trust, you gave me flame
i bound your wrists and dropped your name

i breathe your sweetest sweat within
your scent beneath my hungry skin
your sweetest sweat, it smells like sin
i kiss your shape, i lick your fire
each drop you give stokes my desire

the room not cold, your breath runs wild
no shame remains, no doubt defiled
your body drenched, your heartbeat fast
i drink your storm, the spell is cast

i taste your sweetest sweat again
your honeyed salt, a sweet domain
your sweetest sweat, engraved like stain
i kiss you deep, i lick you clean
now heaven burns behind the screen

undress her sleeve, the paper sighs,
a twelve-inch pulse beneath my eyes.
her skin of black, her body spun,
a circle cut for worship‘s run.

at forty-five or thirty-three,
she‘s my analogue ecstasy.

she turns for me, in perfect speed,
a siren’s hymn that tempts, enslaves.
no file, no cloud, no stream I need,
just pulse and faith and sonic waves.
I live for her, I serve her style,
devoted, proud – I'm an audiophile.

her vinyl heart and static skin,
she breathes a hiss before she sings.
I trace her ribs, the spiral deep,
where ghosts of sound and silence sleep.

from crate to shelf, I chase her name,
each copy scarred, yet none the same.
one spin, one touch, I’m hers again,
my fragile saint in joy and pain.

she turns for me, my constant need,
the needle wakes her energy.
no code, no byte could ever be,
her breath, her hum, her symmetry.
I live for her, I serve her style,
I love her loud – I'm an audiophile.

you won’t walk through my night
i won’t feel heat or skin
but your eyes brought me light
and let no darkness in

you won’t belong to me
i won’t take what you hide
one kiss refused to flee
it kept the spark alive

your ships came into port
then vanished without trace
you stayed so cold, so short
that's how love should taste

you won’t lie at my side
i won’t break through your gate
but still I breathe your pride
and swallow down the weight

you won’t be in my bed
i won’t unchain your name
but all the words you said
still fuel the hunger flame

your stars lit up my sky
then vanished without trace
you made me burn and fly
that's how love should taste

set my course with trembling hands
no map, no guide, no promised land
the sea was calm, my heart was loud
chasing dreams beneath a cloud

a fire lit behind my eyes
full steam toward a paradise
one true soul, a kindred flame
not a game, no one to tame

but winds grew sharp, the stars turned grey
the tide of doubt pulled me away

fears arise, they strike me blind
crash the deck, invade my mind
drown my hope, distort the view
all I sought, was someone true

dropped the anchor, braced the pain
hoped to ride out love’s cold rain
but it dragged me down instead
filled my lungs with fear and dread

the compass spun, the course was lost
no more dreams, just counting cost
i called for help, no sound returned
the flame went out, the sails were burned

shades of solitude, don’t follow me
swamp of sorrow, don’t swallow me
storms of promise, don’t shatter me
waves of truth, don’t batter me

but winds grew sharp, the stars turned grey
the tide of doubt pulled me away

fears arise, they strike me blind
crash the deck, invade my mind
sink the heart, corrupt the view
i set out, to find what’s true

no way out, no escape, I'm locked inside
this sickness spreads, it's eating me alive
you take and take, you drain me dry
cold ambition, you watch me die

why did you break me, leave me behind?
torn apart, left choking blind
every second, every breath
fuels my rage, fuels my death

burning hot, jealous fire
twisting me, taking me higher
ripping through flesh and bone
leave me raw, leave me alone!

i track your steps, I watch you move
paranoia, nothing to lose
you take and take, leave nothing for me
feed your hunger, set yourself free

why did you cut me, leave me confined?
lost control, lost my mind
every whisper, every glance
sets my heart in a violent dance

burning hot, jealous fire
twisting me, taking me higher
ripping through flesh and bone
leave me raw, leave me alone!

ich fuehl mich auf dem wasser wohl
und lass mich treiben hin und her
von land zu land von pol zu pol
im kleinen wie im grossen meer

ich bin erregt ich freu mich so
das flossentier im netz nun steckt
ob ostsee oder golf von mexiko
ich hoffe dass mein fang mir schmeckt

der wind wird nirgendwo kuehler wehn
der mast wird nirgendwo strammer stehn
denn schoener noch als fremd zu schlafen
ist nur das fischen im heimathafen

und wenn die see ist gut zu mir
die fischlein kommen dann zu hauf
sie stillen meine fleischesgier
und die natur nimmt ihren lauf

der wind wird nirgendwo kuehler wehn
der mast wird nirgendwo strammer stehn
denn schoener noch als fremd zu schlafen
ist nur das fischen im heimathafen

die kiemenatmer schaun mich an
ich hoer den kuestenvogel schrein
ich tu was ich am besten kann
und tauch mein messer tief hinein

in schweiß gebadet erwache ich
entlassen aus dem letzten traum
gequaelt waelz ich mich von links nach rechts
die dunkelheit haelt mich im zaum
doch dann erblick ich dein gesicht
und dein laecheln faengt mich auf im licht

von aengsten verfolgt such ich nach schutz
der letzte versuch zu widerstehn
von schatten gejagt flieh ich ins nichts
kann die rettende hand nicht seh’n
doch dann erblick ich dich neben mir
und dein laecheln oeffnet mir die tuer

denn nur dein laecheln vermag zu heilen
vermag den schmerz mit mir zu teilen
es ist das schoenste was mir widerfaehrt
der tanz deiner lippen mich stets bekehrt

versuche zur flucht ermueden mich
sie lassen mein blut gefrieren
ich sehne mich nach geborgenheit
nur kaelte und angst existieren
doch dann erblick ich dich ganz nah
und dein laecheln waermt so wunderbar

denn nur dein laecheln laeßt mich verweilen
laeßt mich augenblicklich zu dir eilen
es ist das schoenste was mir widerfaehrt
nichts auf dieser welt hab ich mehr begehrt
