the light in your eyes slowly dies

and I know, it’s the last time

I will see you alive.

Your chest stops rising

Your heart stops beating

Your hand stops grabbing mine

I feel tears burning in my eyes,

but they refuse to come out

How am I supposed to go on living

without you by my side?

How am I supposed to bring you back

to me?

I am so angry with you

and with me

I can’t change that you left

without me

I couldn’t prevent fate

taking you away from me

but seeing your lights fade

leaving only the empty shell of a jaded man

to hold on to…

maybe one last kiss

can bring you back

my lips brush yours

but you don’t kiss me back

your lips are cold

your eyes stay closed

arms wrap around my shoulders

and through a haze I hear the words

“you have to let him go, he’s gone”

this was not how we were supposed to end

I will never forget the day you died

now you’re gone

sitting on that plane

you simply said: we’re done

and that our love was just a game

I see the airplane in the sky

you left without one last goodbye

now I’m all alone

looking at the stars above

my cold heart turns into stone

a void is all that’s left of what once felt like love

and there’s an other one:

when I see airplanes in the sky,

I always wonder where they are going

and as I sit on the porch

I see the flickering lights in the night sky

what are you leaving

and will you be back?

what is your story

and where leads your track?

when I see airplanes in the sky,

I always wonder where they are going

and as I sit on the porch,

I know you are on the run

are you looking for freedom,

from me, from life

from what we’ve become?

I know, now you are leaving

you’re never coming back

it’s like you’ve been stealing

my heart – adding another crack

(and now I really need to get my four hours of sleep)

song for the one (written by CT/ micqu)

I wrote this song for you

the one who sees into my soul

the one who soothes my heart with words

the one who shares his passions with me

the one who runs his fingers through my thoughts

the one who makes me certain about who I am and who I want to be

the one who shares my dreams

the one who makes me feel

not walking towards my own grave

but helping me to be brave

take me into your heart (written by CT/ micqu)

it’s cold without you by my side

be my warming blanket

chase the cold from my bones

cover me with your heating skin

take me into your heart

let your scent soothe me and make me moan

let me breathe against your neck

let your fingers slide and explore

take me into your heart

chase the sun with me

waste nights away with me

make me feel  you

cover me with your passionate love

take me into your heart

let us become one

let us share our breaths

let us burn together in ecstasy

take me into your heart

see into my soul (written by CT/micqu)

enthrall me with your words

wrap me in your love

change my heart

trace my soul

and see into my soul

put me under your spell

make me breathe your scent

change my soul

trace my soul

and see into my heart

chase the future with me

get lost in lust and passion

change my stars

trace my scars

and I’ll let you into my heart

runaway (written by me micqu/CT)

I’m running away from myself

as fast as I can

but I can never hide

somewhere someone is thinking about you, you said

somewhere someone is dreaming about you, you said

but it doesn’t help

I’m still on the run

and as I fall into oblivion

my own worst enemy chases me down

catching me, she smiles at me through the mirror

I am nothing with you

I am nothing without you

you can’t run away from me

but in the end we all die alone

I have never met you, but I want you (written by CT/micqu)

you left me breathless

you left me restless

I have never met you, but I want to

you are not messing with my head

dusting away the cobwebs instead

I have never met you, but I want to

you kept me longing for summer days

pain and hurt sweeping by in a haze

I have never met you, but I want to

you make me feel like a rose in bloom

like I am the most beautiful one in the room

I have never met you, but I want to

I have never met you, but I want to

soulmate

I have never met you, but I want you

give me your hand (written by micqu)

give me your hand

give me your hand

and I’ll catch you when you fall

I’ll never let you down

I’ll never run from you

I’ll never give up on you

give me your hand

give me your hand

and I’ll protect you from your demons

I’ll never let them in

I’ll never make you cry

I’ll never let go of your hand

give me your hand

give me your hand

and I’ll stay at your side

gone (written by micqu)

why can’t you come back?

you left me in a dark hole

scars haven’t closed the wounds and hurt you left behind

there is no peace yet

I know, time will heal my sorrow

but for now, you’re gone

gone

gone

the pain lingers

I need you

I’m useless without you

come back?

I tried to survive

and I tried

and I tried

and I failed

What right do I have?  (written by micqu)

I’ve got no right to be here

there were times I was alright

and there were times I was a mess

and now the fog clouding my thoughts won’t clear

all those questions

and not one single answer

I’ve got no right to feel this way

there were times life was worse

and there were times life was sublime

and now the fog clouding my thoughts makes me sway

all those questions

and not one single answer

I’ve got no right to bottle this up

there were times I was happy

and there were times I was sad

and now the fog clouding my thoughts won’t let me cope

all those questions

and not one single answer

I’ve got no right to cry

there were times people died

there were times children were born

and now the fog clouding my thoughts makes me want to hide.

Why?
