Sandman 04:28
The night is long I´m counting clouds Prisoner in the dark The ceiling is grey And shadows run Silently on the wall Bringing the thougts You´ve tried to avoid Cause one question leads to the next I´m spending the night alone with my mind And it won´t let me rest Waiting for the Sandman Waiting for the Sandman Waiting for the Sandman To come I watch your sleep Its calm and deep But there are tears in your eyes? I feel so alone Nobody can tell They´re all asleep They night is long I´m counting clouds Prisoner in the dark Waiting for the Sandman Waiting for the Sandman Waiting for the Sandman To come

Upside Down 03:14
When the sun is going down I wake up to life When the city is gone to sleep I feel that i can breath When the voices stop to chat And the jungle rests I feel that i am in my peace My world is Upside Down and Inside Out Like different ends of the same thread I feel that in your eyes I´m like a fool Standing on my head When you´re sleeping I ll be diving into a sphere that you can´t see I am dancing in the light When shadows fall Silence is a being That gets hurt when you talk Music is like a feeling That you carry in your heart I can´t follow On your Daily Run I am waiting til the night begins.

Since I started to percieve I was told that; If you want to succeed You must be a cold man I wasn´t born as a boy My father couldn´t take care But what i learned is that i can walk Without him being there There´s Good and bad times Dark and light times Rough and nice times All just in your mind I hope when i get old I´m still able to unfold I´m born to be a dreamer Nothing less and nothing more The Cage is Open Somebody said that there is a door That you can never open And for a time i was staring it The walls just closing in There is a voice It always Knows It speaks to me Reminding me Of who i am When i forget That i´m free Good and bad times Dark and light times Rough and nice times All just in your mind I hope when i get old I am still able to unfold I am born to be a dreamer Nothing less and Nothing more The Cage is Open Open Open Yeah The Cage is Open

One ball can you run fast enough To be the winner Shoes on grass that is cut perfectly short Do we all carry in us the sperm That had to be the first? What is it in our blood That fights and runs Always front Higher faster and more? What is it in our blood That fights and runs Always front Higher faster and more? They call it evolution No Fucking Clue of where we go go go go go I´m on a rEVOLution rEVOLution of LOVE One ball can you run fast enough To be the winner When your first Where do you go? Do you see The world is a circle And round and round and round It goes Give and take The first and last Fame and Nothingness Without one side the other side Can´t exist Give and take The first and last Fame and Nothingness Without one side the other side Can´t exist They call it evolution NO FUCKING CLUE of where we go go go go go I´m on a rEVOLution rEVOLution of LOVE

Pirate 04:30
The story is told in a few words Always the same The circle turns And the setboard changes Places and names Welcome to life You didn´t pay For the ticket Don´t complain Fasten your seatbelt The rollercoaster goes up and down Enjoy your ride The rollercoaster goes down and up Enjoy your ride I´m a Pirate But peaceful On my boat Got my own rules To be a Pirate means You´re no slave To no one I´m out of your system No part of your Isms Take from the sun The moment is yours We´re born to Die And born to Live What is the answer The answer is There is no answer When i go down I know that soon The mountain comes Just gotta move Beyond the surface The rollercoaster goes up and down Enjoy your ride The rollercoaster goes down and up Enjoy your ride I´m a Pirate But peaceful On my boat Got my own rules To be a Pirate means You´re no slave To no one I´m out of your system No part of your Isms Take from the sun The moment is yours

He looked into my eyes And looked through my disguise And all that i could say was ... Nothing I looked into his face Not knowing what to say Silent lips ... Watching And so the minutes passed Before i could have asked Aynthing Suddenly he was gone. Oooohhh want a little bit more of it Can´t get close enough If love is a boat Where is the river That we take a ride on Oooohhh want a little bit more of it Cause it feels so good If life is a road It has no beginning And no end Nowhere & Everywhere to go Nowhere & Everywhere To go These moments in your life When you could and shine... Don´t hide They pass and you stay back alone A moving train, You know You gotta let it go And wait for the next one Oooohhh want a little bit more of it Can´t get close enough If love is a boat Where is the river That we take a ride on Oooohhh want a little bit more of it Cause it feels so good If life is a road It has no beginning And no end Nowhere & Everywhere to go Nowhere & Everywhere To go So, come a little closer Closer to me Closer Closer to me

about

The thougt of making this Album was already born in 2004...
It took a long journey from writing these songs, over recording a hundred different versions of them... til this current version you hear today.
Of course...this is only a tiny selection of work done in years.
Its my first Release and only the beginning.
Everyone, who gave their time and energy, made it grow ....
made me grow... and there wouldn´t be no Album today without them.
A tree is as strong as its invisible roots.
I am thankful beyond words.
And i hope you enjoy this little selection of music and feelings.

Dana Shanti
