Zywa

Zywa Creepy shadows

And now he is gone
With broken dreams
everything is only half

I need to go outside
I can go every which way
but it's the same everywhere

The bargains, the hypes
Left right forward backwards
everyone in a row

Left right forward backwards
I will not participate
It is no good

It has nothing to do with me
I spit out my anger
and I crawl behind the window

I see people going meekly
I look into their eyes
nobody is home

Looking far ahead doesn't make sense
hopefully, hoping does
I'm still young

Zywa Wings of Desire

Happily Ever After
on The Wall across
my home, Berlin
is my Berlin

Yet I leaf through
a travel magazine, the sea
beckons, the mountains call
echoes Action! Action!

A man smiles at me
We are angels, I give
him my fear, lend
him my room

I need to go, away
from alone, be more
than my work, promise
someone loyalty

Zywa Outside the wall

The Beast is free, we kiss
outside the wall around
the Beauty of your fidelity

Of course we want to be
good, not stun ourselves
or stay in bed

to dream of big deeds -
figuring them out step by step
within far too many rules

We kiss, we are free
Nothing can hurt us today
We are each other's Hero

Our Love is a big deed
out of sight of the watchtowers
on the wall against our desires

Heroes (David Bowie) - 1977
Album
Collection: Moons
Keywords: Love: Give To Be, Berlin
Tribute to: Bowie, David

Zywa Deep down

Tired of travelling
station after station
through my full agenda

Stepped out to stand still
but the madness thunders
into the blue room

deep in the underground
hotel, where nothing changes
or it isn't conspicuous

Freed from the world
the mess at home, the stains
on the floor, rest at last

Nothing distracts me
from the mystery
of sex and the speed

of life
and of the despair
with which I dream

of not belonging here
powerless, put aside
like an alien

David Bowie - 1977
Albums "Station to Station" (1976, David Bowie) and "Low" (1977, David Bowie)
Collection: Moons
Keyword: Depression (despair)
Tribute to: Bowie, David

Zywa I am the ghost

Too small for news
from all over the world, I
sigh, it haunts inside me
and I doubt

the future, mankind
and all the miracles
that love should
and I would like to perform

Madness haunts
the mass cities, the streets
full of shops, full of problems
that threaten business

The dead lie around sloppy
I'm dreaming of a ghost
It's me, the Saviour
Superwoman without a super-

goddess, without prayers
and laws, if possible
Only the plagues will
always be a danger

Zywa Live my dream

You rushed thunderclouds
and blew the warmth
away, you blew away
I dream you

safe in my love
under waterfalls of happiness
I dream and dream
and dream again

but it keeps snowing
Is there a coat against the cold?
Is there a coat with thick pockets?
Is there a coat warm enough?

Come in my arms, with magic
you get everything you wish
Put on your blue dress
and shake your hair loose

I dream you
safe in our love
With magic the sun shines
With magic you smile at me

Zywa Trip Control

Mother Earth, farewell
I must go now, my time
is over, my life is lived
Farewell, farewell

     The globe is beautiful
     little and precious
     the universe big
     I float away in it

Dear people, farewell
you can go now
you have to eat
you have work to do

     I love all of you
     and you the most
     I hope for peace
     It's light here

No one hears me anymore
perhaps they've already left
I can go now
Ten

nine
almost, eight
seven, six
five, engines on

four, three, everything is fine
two, brace yourself
and one, on my way
Have a good trip, a good trip!

Space Oddity (David Bowie) - 1969
Song (album "David Bowie" #2)
Collection: Silent walk
Keyword: Goodbye: dying / death
Tribute to: Bowie, David

Zywa Space Oddity

I take a bath in salt water
where gravity does not exist
On the shelf there is a new set
of the same clothes laid out

There is no concert hall here
and no outside for walking
only a greenhouse
where I like to sniff scents

free of human traces
the skin creams and soap
with which we, counted acquaintances
distinguish ourselves

And when I take care
to pee silent and to poop
not sputtering
leave the light out

and have sex carefully slow
I am the only one on the toilet
in my bed and the bath
who spies on me
