the body wants to rest the brain is obsessed thoughts are running in circles with no conclusion, no solution it’s mindless thoughts, occupying the senses so that the closeness and security of a warm body laying next to me it doesn’t make any difference smoking cigarettes, it’s 4 a.m. got no permission to the leave the state of consciousness smoking cigarettes, it’s 4 a.m. the body wants to rest the brain is obsessed of visions and pictures supposed to be more than just dreams sounds and rhymes, words and lines at risk to be forgotten soon when losing it now smoking cigarettes t 4 a.m. don’t want admission to leave the state of consciousness smoking cigarettes it’s 4 a.m.

Hands 03:45
some might say that I’m a coward while others say I’m just cruel I don’t feel like like there is something to hide from and I don’t feel like like there is something to apologize for and I don’t feel like like there is something (not anymore) I can give you my hand but I can’t give you my heart I neither feel cruel nor like a coward instead, I’m feeling just fine isn’t that what’s important to find any peace of mind? sooner or later you’ll also understand a heart’s less worth, than a hand so, I offer you my hand but I won’t give my heart I can give you my hand but I won’t give you my heart

Grey 04:53
is it wishing or is it hoping? am I dreaming or am I thinking? my desires and my feelings desires against feelings no angels and no devils neither heaven, nor hell just your heart and your mind and the soul, you have to find no good and no bad just the future and the past there’s no black and there’s no white there’s just many different shades of grey

I hugged the devil firstly, I didn’t realize it felt so soft and warm I can’t remember burning evil eyes does this mean that I’m going to hell? the memory is hazy intoxicated pictures of a night I saw myself and the devil the fire between us ready to ignite does this mean that I’m going to hell? I don’t know what he did to me and I don’t want to know what I know is I laid in his arms yet, the consequences didn’t show

a busy boy so curious about the world and what’s in it with his tired wondering eyes he seems to absorb everything the words between the lines tiny details no one finds he barely speaks prefers to be all by himself all the books upon his shelf seem not to be enough to fulfil his growing urge finding rationales, and understand the world this is what you see tell me, is this really me? I can’t read I can’t write not a word I am afraid that something is not right with me I should understand and see but the words are twisted around and the letters seem upside down there is no chance to get any sense out of that mess I know it can’t be meaningless but to see it through might take a while as long as it takes me to find a way out of this oppressive idleness that I feel damned to night and day this is what I feel tell me, is this for real?

when life is speeding up then you are slowing down taking your time to look around with your eyes in the skies and your feet on the ground you’re watching the people passing by and see how dreams are gonna die you don’t want to march with that caravan so you’re trying stay, as long as you can till the day comes you’re all alone feeling the pressure to move on no one waved ‘goodbye’ the warm welcome turned out to be a lie you’re so tired of being left alone wondering what it’s like to somewhere feel at home you’re reaching someplace new where there is no welcome where there’s no one even looking at you staring – without looking at you breaking out of that caravan is honored with disregard it’s not easy to accept more than that, it’s fucking hard but if you want to settle down you might find a way to get used to it
8.
the signs of the shooting stars and crackling willow trees arouse abandoned spirits it’s hard to deny and even harder to believe weeks of waiting and daydreaming nights of wonder and fear days spend by the freezing sea revealing the spirits to be more than an illusion surreality new reality beauty and security everything so easy there is no time and place becomes obsolete in the presence of this light awaking in a dream
9.
the sun and the moon they set and they rise again but the day remains the same weeks and months go by the seasons they change as the world is circling around the sun but I, I’m not part of it I see the constant change feel the cold, the warm, the wet and dry but I, I’m not Part of it of that world steadily moving on I’m floating in space doomed to be the silent observer of the world tuning without me the world is turning without me
10.
there is no information a lack of communication no sense for consequence no consequence is making sense you can wait for the ghost to appear taking your breathe, taking your fear you can wait for the ghost to appear but how long will you wait my dear? there is no communication but you’re so hungry for information fed up with good advice need something more, more than wise more than relying on old ideas more than floating in common spheres but you will never know enough no will never know enough
11.
Storm 04:26
where are you going? there’s storm outside you might get a cold you might get a cold don’t leave me back like this with this storm inside I don’t want that cold, no, I don’t want that cold

about

The kitchen primarily is a functional place where we prepare food. Occasionally, at least for some, it is also a very social place, where you gather to eat, to drink, to talk. At house parties, the kitchen often is the place where everything starts and finds an end, where the drinks are stored, and the smokers meet.

My first kitchen slowly turned into the center of my creativity. Many hours I spent in the kitchen pondering, experimenting with chords and melodies, writing lines or just listening to music. All the songs on this album sooner (as initial ideas) or later (to find their final shape) sat with me on the kitchen couch. As it came to record the material, it was clear, the recordings need to be realized in the kitchen, with its own sounds being integrated…
