"The Hammer Strikes"
(1993-1994)
Prophet And Loss
On beautiful afternoons
Should we work together
She has me and I her
Friends are always there for each other
She tells me secrets
I can keep silent
She knows I like to talk to her
Friends are always there for each other
How come I'm right
Her boyfriend left her
I told her
I always predicted it to her
Prophet and loss go together
The loss of a loved one
Prophet and loss go together
She comes right up to me
In the red glow of the dim light
She donates body heat
Or is it on fire here
She comes right up to me
In the red glow of the dim light
She donates body heat
Or is it on fire here
She sheds her red hair
Consciously in my face
Her rescuer out of distress
Thinks she has him in front of her
Prophet and loss go together
The loss of a loved one
Prophet and loss go together
Boiling Point
There is no cure yet
To stop thieves
From taking the weaker ones
Is there an end
If the boiling point is steaming
The boiling point steams
The boiling point steams
Point and out
Help me blow off steam
I'm not saying goodbye now
Because I almost envy you
You are now free
Free from a world empire
Which is always under control
If the boiling point is steaming
The boiling point steams
The boiling point steams
Point and out
Help me blow off steam
I'm blowing that smelly steam
It gets hotter in that infernal steam
I'm blowing that smelly steam
Deliver me from that infernal steam
The Resurrection Of The Hammer
It's a real nightmare
I wake up and everything is over
I'm not afraid of him and the hammer
The resurrection of the hammer
The truth matters a lot to me
And
I get questions that I can't
Answer
I'm not afraid of him and the hammer
The resurrection of the hammer
Look at me
Look at me
It's strange because she doesn't ask me anything
Is it she who wants to warn me
I'm not afraid of him and the hammer
The resurrection of the hammer
He tells me how powerful he is
We look at each other in
The darkness
Don't be afraid of the hammer
The resurrection of the hammer
Look at me
Look at me
Look at me
Look at me
What does she want
I'm ready
Shards fall
And there is laughter
It's a real nightmare
I wake up and everything is over
I'm not afraid of him and the hammer
The resurrection of the hammer
Devastated By Reality
The rotation of the Earth
Makes her order tonight
It causes insomnia
Disrupts the tides
Don't put it off if it has
Far-reaching consequences
Uncontrollable earthquake
Several hundred dead
Thousands injured
Hundreds of homeless people
Bodies crushed
Dying wounded and suffering
Devastated by reality
All gone in one second
Years saved for work
Now all lost
But say I still have my life
Devastated by reality
I can't be close enough
I can't get you out of my mind
The bleeding won't stop
I can still feel you
As a wounded man
Feels his missing leg
Devastated by reality
All gone in one second
Years saved for work
Now all lost
But say I still have my life
Devastated by reality
A mental sensation
A smoking memory
But she's long gone
Devastated by reality
All gone in one second
Years saved for work
Now all lost
But say I still have my life
Devastated by reality
The Hammer Strikes
The hammer strikes
Unexpectedly the hammer strikes
And I don't even know
What I do
Because my stomach is tired
Hunger suddenly stops
But it is short-lived
A conversation begins
And you know it clicks right away
But it is short-lived
A conversation begins
And you know it's about time
That leads
To beauty
The hammer strikes
Unexpectedly the hammer strikes
You give me more
I stand still
Time originated here
She won't let me go
But it is short-lived
A conversation begins
And you know it clicks right away
But it is short-lived
A conversation begins
And you know it's about time
That leads
To beauty
Suddenly a language sounds
So very brutal
That leads
Before the end in sight
Be reminded of your duty
Not even time
For morning light
Horns Of A Dilemma
Why am I going there
What is it that drives me
Stay home says a voice
The moon in the sky
Standing high and full
Slowly the voice disappears
Welcome the sultry air
This party is busy
You see strangers
But look at their faces
They seem so familiar
Nightlife is busy
What is going on
Is it the night that calls
Or will the beast awaken now
Am I man or beast?
Questions without answers
Horns of a dilemma
Then it resounds in the night
Laughter and some shouting
Music here and there
Dragged along with people
The direction is not desired
No place to stand here
There is a young woman
She has bare shoulders
She stares with wide eyes
A smile on her lips
But doesn't her boyfriend arrive there
Into nothing she disappears again
What is going on
Is it the night that calls
Or will the beast awaken now
Am I man or beast?
Questions without answers
Horns of a dilemma
The party is ending
Time to go home
Is there something in the air
Is a bird spying on me
Footsteps behind me
Make me look around
There is a lonely one
A delight to the eye
She's far from here
Her jeans are molded
She steps in front of me
Slow down into that warm night
What is going on
Is it the night that calls
Or will the beast awaken now
Am I man or beast?
Questions without answers
Horns of a dilemma
There she suddenly stops
She turns to me
Hear the voice that warns
This is her true face
She stops in front of this hotel
This woman is at work
What is going on
Is it the night that calls
Or will the beast awaken now
Am I man or beast?
Questions without answers
Horns of a dilemma
Unexpected Strike
I'm afraid of losing you
And you have already noticed that
Are you doing it intentionally
Because you know everything about me
And I will never forget you
I wish you all the luck
Some are easy
You can count on my help
Unexpected strike
Where is that smile of yours now?
Around those pretty lips of yours
Have you forgotten how to laugh forever?
You suddenly stopped fighting
Mysterious and enchanting
You suddenly stopped playing
Beauty radiates from your face
I'm afraid you don't see me
Are you ignoring me or are you playing again
Tell me how do I address you now
Unexpected strike
Where is that smile of yours now?
Around those pretty lips of yours
Have you forgotten how to laugh forever?
You suddenly stopped fighting
Mysterious and enchanting
You suddenly stopped playing
That smile returns
The sun glistens on your teeth
Your light shade makes me melt
Should I say goodbye or not
Unexpected strike
Where is that smile of yours now?
Around those pretty lips of yours
Have you forgotten how to laugh forever?
You suddenly stopped fighting
Mysterious and enchanting
You suddenly stopped playing
The Anvil Or The Hammer
Not the size of the heart counts
But how you use it
Everyone has a goal
And you are mine
Be master and win
We're having a discussion
I hate repeating myself
It's a waste of time
Of lives and energy
Or serve and lose
The real world is not
What it is meant to be
War hunger racism
Tell me who needs it
Suffering or victory
I care about that smart woman
With every fiber in me
She is the central hearth
From my once cold world
Be the anvil or the hammer
Be master and win
Or serve and lose
Suffering or victory
Be the anvil or the hammer
All For One
What's her secret
Give her a sign
Give her a signal
Her eyes are open
Her strength is broken
The divorce hurts
No time for weakness
I have to be strong at home
They are ready for me
My strength seizes here
She is now missing
Nobody knows where
Only restless
Will we become one more
She has magical power
He doesn't know what to do
His warm heart yields
Understands no betrayal
Help is our duty
He dedicates his powers to her
Her boyfriend likes to hit
The pain she describes
No one can understand
Why she stays with him
Her strength lies in that
Everything that moves
She sees as her goal
Contemplating abuse
In her hunt for feeling
She has the force of law
The marriage is fixed
Parents show their backs
Everything happens in a hurry
The break has no way back
She shows her strength
Sometimes she is touchy
Sometimes she is witty
The slap in my face
Unforeseen but not powerful
She is the appropriate force
Loose life
It's hard for him
To give love
His childhood was not fair
He has fierce power
You don't get hold
Because she is innocent
And as you see
Carefree
Her strength is diminishing
No eye for the gesture
She has her dreams
Vulnerable at times
Will she get there
She grows out of her strength
Eleven to one
The power of friendship
All for one
Help step by step
One of eleven
Ye Gods
Any religion
It's about a great genius
Everything everything I see
Speaks of gods
Proclaimed
By someone
Who lives by lives by
Lives by an old book
With the truth in the corner
Which he wants to get rid of
Ye Gods
Be dead
The man in white
The one with words
Ye Gods do not listen
Ye Gods do not listen
Their essence transcends us
Can we believe
If Their understanding
If Their existence
Doesn't seem so grand
Until she realizes
By her deed
Who lives by lives by
Lives by a lot of money
What a person tells them
And don't rush to help
Instead
Ye Gods
Be dead
The man in white
The one with words
Ye Gods do not listen
Ye Gods do not listen
I'm crazier
I'm crazier
But I'm not dumber
Short Circuit
It is unnecessary to think
That I say nothing more
I want answers
Answers to your questions
I would do anything for you
Give up a kingdom
I’m in your power
I grant you my freedom
Remember that closure
Back in time
The cold warmth around you
My shadow beats me again
I safely distance myself from loneliness
Peaceful silence without pain
I feel years younger
By a lost empire
That was once in a past tense
A virus causes a
Short circuit
Disorganizes my organs
My heart frozen like a thing for years
In a deep freeze of feelings
Thaws due to short circuit
The wonders are the world
Almost out
The circle is round
Without sound
Walk the straight path
Don't use force
Our world is already fed up
You change my life
And you cut off all my electricity
Tell me
I put my spotless
Good name at stake
Let's talk on Valentine's Day
A virus causes a
Short circuit
Disorganizes my organs
My heart frozen like a thing for years
In a deep freeze of feelings
Thaws due to short circuit
Do you also feel your heart stop
So much has gone wrong
Beat for a few seconds
Do you still believe in me after all because
A virus causes a
Short circuit
Disorganizes my organs
My heart frozen like a thing for years
In a deep freeze of feelings
Thaws due to short circuit
School Numb
She was restless
She looked around a lot
Something was in the air
Something I would lose
Something that would last a long time
Her wet hair
Flew in my face
Not entirely coincidental
A stab in my heart
Something seemed to have changed
Later it turned out to be true
A good friend at school
Once a confidant
Was her bishop in play
That she played so well
I was dangerous
The rebel who proved something
People looked up to
Who everyone wanted to be
Except myself
I quickly understood his role
He became careless
Thought to serve me
But I was underestimated
And I could serve him
Later it turned out to be true
A good friend at school
Once a confidant
Was her bishop in play
That she played so well
A friend
A traitor
His job
Numb me
At school
Blind me
To break me
Later it turned out to be true
A good friend at school
Once a confidant
Was her bishop in play
That she played so well
Merge
I walk here again
On my own way
I just got everything back together
If only I could if only for a moment
Be with you and hear your voice
Pleasing your sweet lips
If you answer my questions
Because how far have you gotten alone now
How far did you dare to go alone
That much I wish to know about your life
You can't ignore
Coincidence for a while
Never really believed in it
And never really hoped for it
You know I'm there
And know who I am
Because how far have you gotten alone now
How far did you dare to go alone
Merge
And melt down
Old and new together
It leads to my end
Release my suffering
The twists and turns
From personal trips
Are inscrutable you know
But chance is a support to he
Who doth not deceive
The path of destiny without help
Because how far have you gotten alone now
How far did you dare to go alone
Merge
And melt down
Old and new together
It leads to my end
Release my suffering
I walk here again
On my own way
I just got everything back together
If only I could if only for a moment
Be with you and hear your voice
Pleasing your sweet lips
If you answer my questions
Because how far have you gotten alone now
How far did you dare to go alone
Orientation
Her inner peace
Is so visible
That no one sees
She closed
All her entrances
Sometimes when she says something
Is she that close
That no one feels it
A door ajar
But the wind won't go away
Nobody knows her story
Her body an empty shell
Now lost her orientation
What is real what is fake
Somebody hold her
The pain of the past
Breaks her inside
That no one hears
The walls of her soul
Are so bare and smooth
Her room of love
So covered in dust
That no one smells it
She sinks deeper and deeper
In vague thoughts
Nobody knows her story
Her body an empty shell
Now lost her orientation
What is real what is fake
Somebody hold her
She builds a wall around her
Made of reinforced concrete
Where no one can pass
Her world turns black
She doesn't remember anything
Nobody knows her story
Her body an empty shell
Now lost her orientation
What is real what is fake
Somebody hold her
Crack And Burn
Crack and burn
Then from the beginning
How could you do it
Crack and clean up
To hurt someone and then
Make a fool of them
To be fooled
It wasn't your plan
You betrayed me
Not your
But their intention
Their intention
Their intention
Crack and burn
Crack and burn
You are behind the walls
Keep saving me without
Crack and heal
Always spying on me
To put to shame
To be fooled
It wasn't your plan
You betrayed me
Not your
But their intention
Their intention
Their intention
Crack and burn
Crack and kill
Put out my warm fire
Crack and
Crack and kill
Put out my warm fire
Crack and
And burn
I lost class
And did not reach for the bottle
Not to drugs to drugs
Crack and burn
And burn
Come Deep Inside
I sit inside and outside the night reigns
With darkness that carries me away
The dark becomes my second home
And slowly I digress
I'm going on a trip in mind
Come along and find yourself
Come deep inside
Welcome to that silent world
So unknown to everyone
A world full of corridors and rooms
Some of which are already explored
What will you meet on this journey
What are you doing to yourself
Come deep inside
So many people wander around here
From times then and later
People with beautiful faces
They fade but not ours
Who is that woman traveling there
Who are you in yourself
Come deep inside
You know this is no coincidence anymore
But simple destiny
Just on the street or in dreams
You appear as a wonder of the night
Where will this journey lead
Where do you learn from yourself
Come deep inside
Here you want to be closer and closer
Decide not to do it anyway
Here I want you closer and closer
And don't allow it
When does this journey end
When do you know yourself
Come deep inside
There is a crescent moon in the sky
Hear the howling of the dog
I'm sorry if you startled
From the wind that whispers your name
How will this journey end
How do you look at yourself
Come deep inside
Dangerous Games
Look at the square box
Life in sight
Is this fiction or not
Look at the square box
Dangerous games dangerous games
Our eyes are deceived
Misled by this light box
Nothing seems serious anymore
Dangerous games dangerous games
I try not to think about them anymore
Don't think about the body
I try not to think about them anymore
Not to think about the body the body
Look at the square box
Sharing the violence of man
Look at the square box
Dangerous games dangerous games
Nobody cares when
Thrown with broken glass
Thoughtless blood is spilled
Dangerous games dangerous games
I try not to think about them anymore
Don't think about the body
I try not to think about them anymore
Not to think about the body the body
Being a red whole on the street
And don't think about the pain
Children play in the square
The scene of pain
Look at the square box
The word for the people is not yet heard
Look at the square box
You look at
Disposable products only
I hate that
You Just Said
I'm stuck with this disease
The infatuation
In my closet
It will take you to get over it
After
A game of water and fire
You took this feeling from me
Much later you gave it back
I have this disease again
And you're not really pretty
But inside you something is shining
It shimmers and sparkles
Not all that glitters is gold
You took this feeling from me
Much later you gave it back
And suddenly you just said something to me
You just said
You just said
Hello to me
You just said
Hello to me
I have this disease again
You suddenly release something in me
A great feeling
But also
A bit alienating
You took this feeling from me
Much later you gave it back
And suddenly you just said something to me
You just said
You just said
Hello to me
You just said
Hello to me
And suddenly you just said something to me
You just said
You just said
Hello to me
You just said
Hello to me
Do you still have my
Envelopes
So filled with feelings that I
Couldn't articulate
And suddenly you just said something to me
You just said
You just said
Hello to me
You just said
Hello to me
And suddenly you just said something to me
You just said
You just said
Hello to me
You just said
Hello to me
You just said
Dead Guys Float
Dead guys float
But I'm still alive
I enjoy the scent of the flowers
I enjoy the buzzing of the bees
Do I then not have the right
To Recognition of Existence?
Only in your presence
Do I swim through the earth
I walk in the air
I fly underwater
But judging by your reaction
Am I as dead as a doornail
Dead guys float
But I'm still alive
I enjoy the scent of the flowers
I enjoy the buzzing of the bees
Do I then not have the right
To Recognition of Existence?
Dust in the cold wind
It comes across like this
Am I no more than that
A vague memory
Dust I am and to dust
Shall I return to you
Dead guys float
But I'm still alive
I enjoy the scent of the flowers
I enjoy the buzzing of the bees
Do I then not have the right
To Recognition of Existence?
Rest in peace
Written on your face
Rust in Vrede
Written on your face
Requiscat in pace
But I'm still alive
As long as you carry me
In your bleeding heart
Filled with tears
Where dead guys float
A living dead
Dead guys float
But I'm still alive
I enjoy the scent of the flowers
I enjoy the buzzing of the bees
Do I then not have the right
To Recognition of Existence?
No Anger
Just watch
As he comes to inquire
To our dreams
To get me loose
With all times
Learning life
I feel I feel I feel
No anger rises in my mind
Let's make it up
You have changed
According to rumors
Boring and arrogant
Mouths full of words
The words without truth
I feel I feel I feel
No anger rises in my mind
With the god of lies
Not a fake full of deceit either
Can't you speak
So don't listen to him
The stories are not real
Kindle no more anger there
Whatever you hear in the streets
I know what I am doing
Make me crazy
We do not know each other
It's silly maybe
But it drives me crazy
Seeing you like this
Why are you doing this
The desire is so strong
I feel I feel I feel
No anger rises in my mind
With the god of lies
Not a fake full of deceit either
Can't you speak
So don't listen to him
The stories are not real
Kindle no more anger there
Whatever you hear in the streets
I know what I am doing
Make me crazy
With the god of lies
Not a fake full of deceit either
Can't you speak
So don't listen to him
The stories are not real
Kindle no more anger there
Whatever you hear in the streets
I know what I am doing
Make me crazy
No anger
Can destroy this
No anger
Can destroy this
No anger
Can destroy this
With the god of lies
Not a fake full of deceit either
Can't you speak
So don't listen to him
The stories are not real
Kindle no more anger there
Whatever you hear in the streets
I know what I am doing
Make me crazy
No anger
Can destroy this
No anger
Can destroy this
No anger
Who wins who wins who wins
No anger
Who wins who wins who wins
Visit Day
We live under a sun
We live under a sky
But the planet is getting hotter
The change is not visible
The smell of a jungle burning
The smell of scorching grass
The signature of stoves
In the warm darkness
The change becomes visible
Images of the white sand
Images of otters in the sea
Stained with black oil
Soon only on TV
The change is visible
What is needed
A baby's cry
In the suffocating smog
Everywhere you see pictures of our nature
The poisonous bouquet of pipes
Bleached and silent woods
Beautiful and poison-dead lakes
You can read books about our nature everywhere
Heat wave disrupts the ocean current
Sunshade sales are on the rise
Islands flooded by the tide
What is needed
A baby's cry
In the suffocating smog
What is needed
The drama of the Gulf
Where people die for justice
To live in the smog
Where are the fables
Which a mother reads
To her child before sleeping
What does she say when asked
Why we dig in the earth
When a man walks on the moon
Then she answers the child
Everyone is responsible
Some more than others
We call them ministers
We call them businesspeople
Are we controlled by
An internal network
From power-hungry lunatics
What is needed
A baby's cry
In the suffocating smog
What is needed
The drama of the Gulf
Where people die for justice
To live in the smog
And the child dreams
Frees his thoughts
Turns weapons into solar cells
Turns aggression into progression
Nuclear fusion in an illusion
Ride the waves of the future
What is needed
A baby's cry
In the suffocating smog
What is needed
The drama of the Gulf
Where people die for justice
To live in the smog
Or should the child one day
In the next century
For a bit of nature
Visit museums
Leap Of Faith
Look at those men
So intact
Look at those men
With beer in hand
Look at those men
From the early country
Look at those men
They don't eat
Look at those men
Even the displaced
Look at those men
They hate the strangers
They are in front of his picture
For their greeting
For their God
For their country
For their family
For their kin
For their Klan
Look at those men
With only one big goal
Look at those men
Colors are wrong
Look at those men
With white masks
They are in front of his picture
For their greeting
For their God
For their country
For their family
For their kin
For their Klan
Look at those men
Their new friends
Look at those men
With smooth skulls
Look at those men
At this birthday party
They are in front of his picture
For their greeting
For their God
For their country
For their family
For their kin
For their Klan
Look at that dead man
With the little moustache
Look at that dead man
With the tight uniform
Look at that dead man
He does not disappoint them
Look at that dead man
A war in his name
Look at that dead man
He allows himself to be believed
Look at that dead man
He wasn't fooled
They are in front of his picture
For their greeting
For their God
For their country
For their family
For their kin
For their people
Then look at yourself
Are you that kind of person
Then look at yourself
Are you the only seer
When you look at yourself
In the realm of the blind
Then don't make that jump
A leap of faith
Then don't make that jump
Before you hurt
Then don't make that jump
Have faith in yourself
Faith Healer
I do not know what to do
What is the purpose
Of my presence
A denouement follows
Why I suspect
That our great God
Loves an ending
Full of surprises
Is faith for them
A useful connection
For their ignorance
A sick stool
For an emotional cripple
Shouldn't we learn
From our missteps
Of the past
For a better time
Unlucky is the country
That has no heroes
Is to show mercy
No harder than killing
Is faith for them
A useful connection
For their ignorance
A sick stool
For an emotional cripple
If I'm to believe
In something or someone
If I have to trust
Then why not in myself
Deep Appearance
The words on this paper
They are not from a hopeless man
Time brought hope
These are flowers from the past
Sent to the future
Traveling in the present
View them as a congratulations
View them as a thank you
View them as a forgiveness
The flight of imagination is over
And the hammer strikes
After your acknowledgment
The deep appearance emerged
The words are back
The words are mine
A known unknown
Who now lives in this time
The flowers come from a life
A life in hell
Traveling in heaven
Know that someone is thinking of you
And you deserve these flowers
View them as a congratulations
The flight of imagination is over
And the hammer strikes
After your acknowledgment
The deep appearance emerged
The words are back
The words will perish
Full of darkness and light
Time brought an awakening
The flowers will wilt
Get some creases
Traveling in their age
Do you ever feel lonely
Or abandoned
View them as a thank you
The flight of imagination is over
And the hammer strikes
After your acknowledgment
The deep appearance emerged
The words are back
The words do not repeat
Although it seems so
Traveling in time
The flowers lose beauty
But realize that a wrinkle
Can also be beautiful
Do you have to step out of your shadow
Or will this cause you problems
View them as a forgiveness
The flight of imagination is over
And the hammer strikes
After your acknowledgment
The deep appearance emerged
The words are back
Abuses
Abuses follow us
Take your time
Before she gets it wrong
Take your time
She loses her time
And I my patience
It's just a matter of honor
How can she drink now
She tastes only oblivion
And I want to ignore it
Her world is liberated
Scared and ready to leave
I don't care
It's just a matter of honor
But maybe I'm doing something wrong
I'm drowning in data
Where she holds me
And our addiction
She is my everything
Maybe we'll see each other again
Love fades away
Love lasts forever
And I confess
Let this feeling grow into love
I don't want to hear it anymore
It's just a matter of honor
I'm paying the price now
I built high in my head
Her image as a miracle
Give me freedom
While I eat and sleep
While bleeding
And breathe
But maybe I'm doing something wrong
I'm drowning in data
Where she holds me
And our addiction
She is my everything
I act wrong
I act wrong
Or am I doing well
She blames it
It's just a matter of honor
Abuses follow us
Take your time
Before she gets it wrong
Take your time
She loses her time
And I my patience
It's just a matter of honor
But maybe I'm doing something wrong
I'm drowning in data
Where she holds me
And our addiction
She is my everything
