1. Where The Heart Is
by Corny Held
3:16 min.
(English)
Short Demo-Clip
Corny Held: vocals, guitars, bass
Axel Wagner: drums, rhythm-guitar
lyrics
I'm sitting here among my stuff
with yet no place to go
The walls are moving in on me
the ceiling, too, I know.
I can't get out, and I can't shout
life is becoming slow
and resignation waits outside
and spite begins to grow
I -
can't lean on love or
lie on the truth or
ever believe in fate
I -
can't walk on love or
fly on a dove or
hope it is never getting late.
Home is where the heart is
Right now you find me
Just sitting here among my stuff
Can't help I'm feeling low
The ground is dancing under me
the ceiling starts to flow
The sounds I hear, they turn to me
they giggle and say: No!
You set your sails in vain, because
for you, no wind will blow.
Can't be where my heart is .......

Dance like a leaf that is falling -

Don't turn around, don't turn me down
Don't just drop me like a leaf in the alley
Don't turn around, don't turn me down
Don't just drop me like a leaf in the street
I will fly away
Dance like a leaf that is falling
See the dance of the last leaf in fall
Don't turn around, don't turn me down
Don't just drop me like a leaf in the alley
Don't turn around, don't turn me down
Don't just drop me like a leaf in the street
I will fly away
If you drop me like a tree a leaf I will fly away
3. I'll Be Gone
by Corny Held

(English)
Short Demo-Clip
Corny Held: vocals, guitar, bass
Axel Wagner: drums
lyrics
What would you do if I weren't around
What would you do on your own
What would you do if noone came round
Would you like being alone
Would you forget me, or would it be bad
Would you feel sad or blue
Would you remember what we once had
Just tell me: what would you do?
'Cause I'm leaving tomorrow and I'm leaving for good
And I'm leaving you here all alone
If it worries you none, I'm not saying it should,
it's OK, but for sure I'll be gone
What would you say if you just came in here
nobody there any more
Would you be happy, drink too much beer
would you make love with a whore
Don't really tell me, I don't want to know
Nothing can stop me no more
Come what may and what is coming my way
Anyway, I'll close the door
'Cause I'm leaving tomorrow and I'm leaving for good
And I'm leaving you here all alone
If it worries you none, I'm not saying it should,
it's OK, but for sure I'll be gone
4. All Through Eternity

(English)
Short Demo-Clip
Corny Held: vocals, guitars, bass, flute
Axel Wagner: drums
lyrics
Once upon a time in a former life
I must have been a fisherman's wife
I remember the boat - I remember the load
One day he was gone and I was alone
five hundred years from now
I was floating in a boat on the deep blue sea
five hundred years from now
but that wasn't really me
Once upon a time I was a dragonfly
danced along a lake in the deep blue sky
Till the winter came and the snow fell down
I fell into the water, it was cold I got drowned
Five thousand years from now
I was floating on a wave into the deep blue sea
Five thousand years from now
but that wasn't really me
Once upon a time I was a fairy in a tree
my friends were a bird, a wolf, a hermit, and a bee
And the flowers all nodded their heads to me
when a storm came up and took me to the sea.
Five million years from now
I was floating on the wind over the dep blue sea
Five million years from now
but it wasn't really me
I've been so many things in so many times
had a lot of lives while a cat has only nine
In the next one I may be a star or its light
I might never find which one was really mine.
All through eternity
I'll be floating on the wind over the deep blue sea
All through eternity
I'll be floating on a wave on the deep blue sea
five hundred years from now
I'll be floating on the wind over the deep blue sea
Five thousand years from now
I'll be floating on a wave on the deep blue sea
Five million years from now
I'll be floating on a boat on the deep blue sea
All through eternity
I'll be floating on the wind over the deep blue sea
-
until I know it's me

lyrics
One day Maggie was in a very gloomy mood
When she looked into her mirror - and what she found was good
and she fell in love with her image that day
and that love was the root for the power of her
hate in some weird way
and she sensed she had to use op the people that she knew
more than they'd been using her and worse than they would do
and it wasn't even mean, it seemed justified
For how could things be bad that worked for everyone and
made her feel allright?
She was dancing on the rim of a deep round well
to the brassy sound of a glassy bell
and a fire at the bottom was burning on
It was nourished by passion and love that was gone
There was heat in the air and a smoky cloud above
and the giggles and the sighs of a couple making love
and around there was a market, everybody tried to sell
Maggie's mind and Maggie's body and a picture of the
moment when she fell
and the mirror said: You take what you can't get
If you can't get esteem, you must have self - respect.
and Maggie tried it out, it seemed to work a while
But she was never tough, and fighting all alone just
made her weak inside
Noone cared about her in the way that she would need
and what she really was was for them less than what she seemed
and then she played with time and people and with truth and lies
she tried to buy the world, but she was bought instead and
even paid the price
She was dancing on the rim of a deep round well
to the brassy sound of a glassy bell
and a fire at the bottom was burning on
It was nourished by passion and love that was gone
There was heat in the air and a smoky cloud above
and the giggles and the sighs of a couple making love
and around there was a market, everybody tried to sell
Maggie's mind and Maggie's body and a picture of the
moment when she fell
She was loved by everybody like they love a child
But cofusion isn't innocence, and dancing can turn wild
She didn't know which way to go and tore her soul apart
Life is strange without an aim, and chosing all directions had
to crack her fragile heart.
She was dancing on the rim of a deep round well
to the brassy sound of a glassy bell
and a fire at the bottom was burning on
It was nourished by passion and love that was gone
There was heat in the air and a smoky cloud above
and the giggles and the sighs of a couple making love
and around there was a market, everybody tried to sell
Maggie's mind and Maggie's body, they were
waiting that she fell
She was dancing on the rim of a deep round well
to the brassy sound of a glassy bell
and a fire at the bottom was burning on
It was nourished by passion and love that was gone
There was heat in the air and a smoky cloud above
and the giggles and the sighs of a couple making love
and around there was a market, everybody tried to sell
Maggie's mind and Maggie's body and a picture of
the moment when she fell
6. The Times Are Always New

3:06 min.
(English)
Short Demo-Clip
Corny Held: vocals, a-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Martin Wesolowski: bass
Micha El Dilly: e-guitar
Matthias Scheel: percussion
lyrics
Do you believe in honesty
Do you believe in lies
Do you believe that you ore free
Do you think you are wise
Do you live in a world of ease
Or in a world of cries
And can there be eternal peace
Or only war in disguise
It's a new time coming
With the feeling right back inside
A new time coming - all the time
Do you believe in fantasy
Do you find life in sighs
Do you believe in wishes
And the lights in children's eyes
Do you find joy in golden leaves
Do you listen to the breeze
Do you tell the age old trees
The truth, whatever it is
It's a new time coming
With the feeling right back inside
A new time coming - all the time
The poets of the former times
They used to have insights
And now they're but complaining
'bout nothing they can find
Do you care or never mind
Do you know what to do
Do you sometimes blame yourself
For the times are always new
and it's a new time coming
for:
The times are always new
Do you put up with the old or see
that the times are always new
7. Fantasy Fair

Short Demo-Clip
Corny Held: vocals, guitars, bass
Axel Wagner: drums
lyrics
Are you going to fantasy fair
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
Remember me to one who lives there
For he once was a true love of mine
Tell him to build me a castle of thoughts
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
with lamps made of wisdom and shelves made of hopes
And then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him to fill it with creatures of peace
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
And with carpets woven of old memories
And then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him to paint it in colors of love
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
a banner of lyrics waving above
And then he'll be a true love of mine
O, will you find me a magical land
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
Where nothing's forgotten and things never end
Or never be a true love of mine
O, will you make it a festival place
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
And invite those we want and those we create
Or never be a true love of mine
And when you have done and finished your work
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
Then come to me and say the right word
And you shall be a true love of mine.

8. Morning
by Corny Held

(English)
Short Demo-Clip
Corny Held: vocals, guitars, bass
Axel Wagner: drums
lyrics
Early morning light, floating in so bright, until the next night
I got to throw - got to through my dreams -
Got to throw all my - all my dreams away.
Sunshine coming in, too much on my skin,
don't know where I've been
try to remember - I forgot it -
I don't remember, don't know where I've been.
Waking up is hard to do
Every morning I feel blue
Seems the world is not yet true
& I find dreams can't be real
hard - taking a long - time to see that a dream cannot be real.
Smoke from yesternoon, cold the incense fume,
air inside the room
it is too thick - full of left-overs
Sounds of music slowly filling it, too.
Turning back to be - in reality, boiling lots of tea
& ist aroma - makes me feel -
makes me feel, it makes me feel a lot better
Waking up is hard to do
Every morning I feel blue
Seems the world is not yet true
& I find dreams can't be real
hard - taking a long - time to see that a dream cannot be real.
Early morning light, morning in the night
Dreams are shattered now, fragments on the grouond
Morning being down, daytime rolling 'round
Morning - morning - morning.
9. Time Goes Back
by Corny Held

(English)
Short Demo-Clip
Corny Held: vocals, guitars, bass
Axel Wagner: drums
lyrics
When the daylights fade - time goes back
When memories cast their shade - I feel I lack
What I've been missing ever since
And now I fear I might forget it
When satisfaction lies in being dissatisfied
It's good to know the waves around the good old days
Are only sleeping, until a storm
wakes them up again, & then
It'll blow out the brains of intelligent systems
It'll scatter all matters, it'll shrink every distance
It'll weigh all the evil, it'll heap up the stars
Only freedom escapes when kept behind bars
When the lights are low & time takes rest
It's good to say hello to a dear guest
considered dead and gone, but there he is
to make me see life can't be measured
It is getting late - there's another dream
Another date - another scream
Waking another world inside eternity
& outside minds or feelings
It'll batter your faith in intelligent systems
It'll shatter the glamour of virtual existence
It'll blow up the truth, it'll breathe out new life
It'll carry you back to make you survive
& the wave it'll drive, it can wash, it can drown
it is huge, it is mighty, takes you high, takes you down
There'll be nothing to stop it, no way to escape
No way to decide things, & no way to stay
You'll get carried away.......

lyrics
Where are the gods you used to know
Where are the gods for life
Where have they gone, so far, so low,
Don't feel their comfort, power, or drive
Where are the gods of time and year
Where are the ones from youth
If they are gone, you won't stay here
They took along the ease, the truth
Cry, just cry
And you might get a little closer by
Where is the magic of the trees
Or of the mighty mountains
Where are the gods of deep blue seas
Do you miss their whisper in the fountains
Where are the gods of a lonely night
Where are the gods of passion
Where are the ones of summer moonlight
Where is the soothing good agression
Cry, just cry
And you might get a little closer by
Where are the gods that made love grow
Where are those of your dreams
Waiting for you, so go, just go
Leavev what you got and follow a starbeam
Cry, just cry
And you might get a little closer by
11. Holiday

lyrics
Last week I spent a holiday
Upon an island far away
the sun kept shining every day
the nights so mild in every bay
But then I had to go back home
I'm homesick & I feel alone
It's raining & the wind is blowing
Reminds me of the sun that shone
I wish I had a holiday
I wish I could just get away
I hate to think I got to stay
when I consider the next day
I wish I had a holiday
I wish I could just get away
I hate to think I got to stay
I wish I had a holiday
I was as happy as can be
On that small island in the sea
& every day I could be me
Enjoy my time & feel so free
But now I'm back at work again
I can no longer go to swim
I look outside & see the rain
I got my memory on my brain
Just take me where the sky is blue
& nothing which I have to do
where life is fun & joy is true
Why don't you join me & come, too
The next vacation I will spend
Upon my island in the sand
escape the daily round again
Just come with me & take my hand

lyrics
When the bluebells start ringing
you can hear the elves singing
and they ring in a spring
that is new
When you hear them in fall
it is winter they call
and they ring in their end
and sound blue.
Blue little bell
ring and tell
me the tales
about life and ist gales
Blue little bell
ring and tell
me the tales
of heavens and hells
Well, the seasons go by
We might stay for a while
till the bells tell you why
I leave you
But you don't ever listen
you don't ever know
All the messages gone,
but still true
You don'thear them, you'l feel
what they rang must come real
they don't care what you think
or don't do.
