Ich Bin Die Macht

Unheilig

Die Sünde in Rauch getarnt
in tiefer Nacht von weichem Licht umgarnt
verzerrter Blick als Glaube gelähmt
versunkene Träume in Gedanken gezähmt
Kein Gefühl mehr für Wirklichkeit

Ich bin die Macht
die im Dunkeln die deine Träume stiehlt
Ich bin der Wind
der den Schmerz in deine Seele säht
Ich bin die Lust
die im Spiegel mit deinen Tränen spielt
Ich bin dein Schatten
der dir folgt wohin du gehst

Verzerrter Neben in Unschuld gebrannt
verbotene Frucht aus dem Schattenland
tiefe Liebe wenn die Seele Zerbricht
entgleiste Gier für ein Lebenslicht
Kein Gefühl mehr für Wirklichkeit

Ich bin die Macht
die im Dunkeln die deine Träume stiehlt
Ich bin der Wind
der den Schmerz in deine Seele säht
Ich bin die Lust
die im Spiegel mit deinen Tränen spielt
Ich bin dein Schatten
der dir folgt wohin du gehst

Ich bin die Macht

Ich bin der Wind

Ich bin die Lust
die im Spiegel mit deinen Tränen spielt
Ich bin dein Schatten
der dir folgt wohin du gehst

Ich bin die Macht

    I am the power

    The sin masked in smoke In deep night beguiled by soft light Distorted glance as belief lamed Sunken dreams in thoughts tamed No more emotion for reality

    I am the power That steals in the darkness of your dreams I am the wind That sees the pain in your soul I am the desire That plays in the mirror with your tears I am your shadow That follows you where you go

    Distorted near* in innocence blazed Forbidden fruit from the Shadowland Deep love if the soul breaks Derailed greed for a lifelight No more emotion for reality

    I am the power That steals in the darkness of your dreams I am the wind That sees the pain in your soul I am the desire That plays in the mirror with your tears I am your shadow That follows you where you go

    I am the power

    I am the wind

    I am the desire That plays in the mirror with your tears I am your shadow That follows you where you go

    I am the power

    *neben is a preposition for location "near" or "beside", or it can be a part of a word to indicate "secondary" or similar ... here I am really not sure

    Overall, I'm not completely happy with this translation. I may update this later. :)

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
