(Erstes Geschoss)
Hier leben die Blinden, die glauben was sie sehen
Und die Tauben, die glauben was sie hören
Festgebunden auf einem Küchenhocker
Sitzt ein Irrer, der glaubt alles was er anfassen kann
(Seine Hände liegen im Schoß)

Zweites Geschoss
Rolle für Rolle
Rauhfaser tapeziert
In den Gängen stehen Mieter herum
Betrachten die Wände aufmerksam
Suchen darauf Bahn um Bahn
Nach Druck- und Rechtschreibfehlern
Könnten nicht mal ihren Namen entziffern

Auf ins nächste Geschoss
Welches, oh Wunder, nie fertiggestellt
Nur über die Treppe erreicht werden kann

Hier lagern Irrtümer, die gehören der Firma
Damit kacheln sie die Böden
An die darf keiner ran

Viertes Geschoss
Hier wohnt der Architekt, er geht auf in seinem Plan
Dieses Gebäude steckt voller Ideen
Es reicht von Funda- bis Firmament
Und vom Fundament bis zur Firma
Im Erdgeschoss
Befinden sich vier Türen, die führen direkt ins Freie
Oder besser gesagt in den Grundstein
Da kann warten wer will
Um zwölf kommt Beton
Grundsteinlegung!
Grundsteinlegung, Lüge, Lüge, Lüge
Gedankengänge sind gestrichen
In Kopfhöhe braun
Infam, katholisch violett
Zur besseren Orientierung

Dachgeschoss
Es hat einen Schaden
Im Dachstuhl sitzt ein alter Mann
Auf dem Boden tote Engel verstreut
(Deren Gesichter sehen ihm ähnlich)
Zwischen den Knien hält er ein Gewehr
Zielt auf seinen Mund
Und in den Schädel
Durch den Schädel
Und aus dem Schädel heraus
In den Dachfirst dringt
Das Geschoss
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut

Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut
Gott hat sich erschossen
Ein Dachgeschoss wird ausgebaut

    So the lyrics in english: (I try my best)

    First floor where the blind men live who belive in what they see and the doves who believe in what they hear, tied to a kitchen chair there is a maniac, who believes in what he can touch (his hands on his legs)

    Second floor roll for roll lenght for length woodchip wallpaper lodgers are standing in the corridor attentively starring at the walls lenght for lenght searching for typos and misprints but coulddn't even make out their own name

    Let's get to the next floor which, o wonder!, hasn't been finished yet only accessible by stairway

    -

    -

    -

    - the falsity here is property of the company they tile the floor with it and nobody is allowed to near himself to them

    4th floor here is the home of the architect succeeds in his plans this bilding is filled with ideas it ranges from fundament to canopy and from fundament to company

    in the ground floor there are four doors they lead out-of-doors or rather to the headstone here's the place to wait for everyone who wants to concrete's coming 12 o'clock groundbreaking ceremony train of thoughts aborted at face level fascistic infamous or catholic violet for better orientation

    Attic the roof is damaged there's an old man sitting in the truss death angels are laying on the ground (they look similar to him) he holds a gun between his legs and aims for his mouth and inside the head and outside the head and through the head the bullet soaks god has shot himself the attic gets extended god has shot himself the attic gets extented lie, lie the attic gets extended

    (Epilogue

    Basement: this is a cellar here do I live this is the darkness wet and comfortable this is a castle)

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
