Sound Apocalypse

(words & music by Eike Moriz, 11.12.2019)

Mythus was a winner, the absolute beginner: 

A bestselling toy!

Made of a billion memories, sentiments and enemies,

A promise of joy!

Whips us all in line to be slaughtered just like swine, 

Oh, Follow that boy!

Enslaved more than ever and we still think we’re so clever 

Plastic horses made in Troy.

It’s a sound apocalypse, 

A round apocalypse by greedy virtual junkie toys

It’s a sound apocalypse

A round apocalypse by greedy virtual junkie boys

Staring at perfection, abyss in all directions: 

It’s a hypnotic ride!

Change is ever-present, but no truth that can’t be bent. 

Nothing that we can’t deny.

Prescribed so many pills and each and everyone just kills. 

Are we now Jekyll or Hyde? 

Hooked on all that sells and all that sells wears bells.

Anything we haven’t tried?

It’s a sound apocalypse

Around apocalypse by greedy virtual junkie toys 

It’s a sound apocalypse

A round apocalypse by greedy virtual junkie boys

When everyone’s a super hero it counts for absolutely zero. 

The devil’s chasing its tail.

Who are the spinning fates that everybody hates? 

I wanna glance behind that mystic veil!

It’s a sound apocalypse

A round apocalypse by greedy virtual junkie toys 

It’s a sound apocalypse

A round apocalypse by greedy virtual junkie boys

Oh, it’s a sound apocalypse

A round apocalypse by greedy virtual junkie toys 

Yeah, it’s a sound apocalypse

A round apocalypse by greedy virtual junkie boys

Dangerous Rhymes

(words & music by ©Eike Moriz, 29.12.2019 & 25.04.2015)

Mainstream-true is like a colour;

A colour that couldn’t get any duller,

And yet it distracts us so

Cause its everywhere, everywhere we go.

There’re no more dangerous rhymes 

In these dangerous times 

'Cause danger is all we breed

Hold my hand, this village’s getting smaller.

The thugs who run this world are getting taller.

And you distract me so,

And you’re everywhere, 

Everywhere I go.

There’re no more dangerous rhymes 

In these dangerous times

'Cause danger is all we breed 

You’ve had your chance, earth’s given notice.

Yet you persist that there’s nothing wrong.

Tried to pay us off, confuse us, divert the focus.

Your work here is done!

There’re no more dangerous rhymes 

In these dangerous times 

'Cause danger is all we breed 

There’re no more dangerous rhymes 

In these dangerous times 

'Cause danger is all we breed 

There’re no more dangerous rhymes 

In these dangerous times 

'Cause danger is all we breed 

There’re no more dangerous rhymes 

In these dangerous times 

'Cause danger is all we breed

Slow Down (The Man And The Woods)

(words & music by Eike Moriz, 29.06.2019)

He looks at this creature fair

Clowns wearing paper hair

While his heart’s beating loud in the grove

The animals whisper there

And Colours melt in the air

The sun burns a hole through the clouds 

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow, slow down

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow, slow down

Blackbirds sit and stare

The pulse is heard everywhere 

Piano wires weave a spell on the woods

Forgotten, the jokes and tales

So the heartbeat may unveil 

What breathes life to this temple of green

Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, 

Oh, yeah

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow, slow down

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow, slow down

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow, slow down

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow down to the rhythm

Slow, slow down

City Lights (Here Comes The Sun)

(words & music by Eike Moriz, 29.06.2019)

Up above the clouds I’m feeling’ low:

Heavenly space - nowhere to go.

Way down below a swirling fog:

City lights on - city lights off.

It’s so bright - Nothing to see, 

Nothing to feel - Nothing to do - ohohohoh

Here comes the sun - All glows as one

Aeons of time by this light’s design:

We come and go. Do we come and go?

Oceans of blue embracing the land:

A drop at a time, igniting the sand

It’s so dark. So much to see,

So much to feel - So much to do – ohohohoh

Here comes the sun - All glows as one

Life without you - No life at all:

Dust in the wind - Certain to fall.

Wings from dreams of learning to fly

Lift off from the mud. Take to the sky

It’s so clear - So much to see,

So much to feel - So much to do - ohohohoh

Here comes the sun - All glows as one

Here comes the sun - All glows as one

Dragon

(words & music by Eike Moriz, 17.10.2019)

Beyond the far ends of the mind,

Seen by the eyes of the blind;

From a valley wrapped in mist and shadows,

I whisper in the ear of Van Gogh.

So, let’s face the dragon – Let’s chase the dragon

Let us drag him, drag him into the light

Invisible, insatiable - A shiver in the night,

Invincible, unbreakable – A face in full moonlight

It blames in flames, it petrifies,

It shames in games, it crucifies.

So, let’s face the dragon – Let’s chase the dragon

Let us drag him, drag him into the light

It’s a solemn labour – We can never slay him,

It’s a solemn labour – We must never slay him.

So, let’s face the dragon – Let’s chase the dragon

Let us drag him, drag him into the light

Say Your Name

(words & music by ©Eike Moriz, 13.01.20) 

Take you to the river

Take you through the rain

I Take you to the river 

And there I Say your name.

Say your name, say your name 

Ooh I say your name

I Take you to the river 

And there I Say your name.

Say your name, say your name 

Ooh I say your name

Say your name, I say your name,

Ooh I say your name!

Take you to the river

Take you through the rain

I Take you to the river 

And there I Say your name.

See Your Light

(words & music by ©Eike Moriz, 02.04.20)

From Jupiter to Mars - Screaming at the stars

Born onto this rock – into this time.

Staring at the sun - Declaring this ‘year 01’

Lighting up this darkness – It’s your time!

See your light - shining bright

Calling on this love to unify

See your light - shining bright

Calling on this love to unify 

Facing what’s to come - Standing tall as one

We must change our ways in these dark days

Deserted streets beneath your feet

Fear is now your enemy – you’re not alone!

Shine your light into the night 

You got the strength to fight this fight

You’re not alone!

See your light - shining bright

Calling on this love to unify

See your light - shining bright

Calling on this love to unify

See your light - shining bright

Calling on this love to unify

It’s Our Universe

(words & music by ©Eike Moriz, 28.02.20)

We run into the dark, into the park,

Climb over the fence and feel the spark.

Must escape the bull, all the screens are full,

Any common sense lost in pretence.

Let’s get out of here and dance

It’s always been our final chance

It’s our universe

It’s a brand new dawn, yesterdays are gone

No time to second guess, we just say ‘Yes’.

The revolution’s live, we will survive,

Got no time to stress while we’re alive.

Let’s get out of here and dance

It’s always been our final chance 

It’s our universe

Won’t let them dumb us down 

Those evil greedy clowns 

Don’t let them get you down

Let’s get out of here and dance

It’s always been our final chance 

It’s our universe

Let’s get out of here and dance

It’s always been our final chance 

It’s our universe

Only You

(written by Buck Ram / Ande Rand ©Hollis Music Inc.)

Only you can make all this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you

Only you can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true, my one and only you

Only you can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true, my one and only you
