Zündung. Donner. Spür das Metall
Es vibriert und es zerrt auf dem Weg ins All
Aller Anfang ist auch unangenehm
Aber bald wirst du die Sterne sehn
Wenn die Schwerkraft fällt,
Dich nichts mehr festhält
Bist du irgendwann ganz sicher auch nicht mehr auf der Welt
Hast dir so lange gewünscht, dass es anders wäre
Und jetzt blickst du von oben auf die Atmosphäre

Hey, du bist ein Kosmonaut
Wenn du von oben auf die Erde schaust
Und hey! Die Reise kostet auch
Der Brennstoff teuer, feuert laut
Aber Hey! Du bist ein Kosmonaut
Flieg flieg flieg in den Weltenraum
Und hey! Du bist ein Kosmonaut
Das All ist offen und nichts hält dich auf!

Jetzt bist du Lichtjahre gerannt, und du hast vage erkannt
Du möchtest unendlich viel mehr sein als ein lahmer Trabant
Zwischen Hageln von Kometen, und tragischen Planeten
Willst du nicht für schicksalhafte Umlaufbahnen nur beten
Wenn Raketen wie die deine ihre Bahnen ziehn
Denn dein Treibstoff reicht noch Galaxien
Du warst so lang gebunden an die Gravitation
Dass du das irgendwann da raus schaffst, man das ahnten wir schon

Der Mars hinter dir
Hast die Stars im Visier
Hinter dir verblassen selbst die Gas-Riesen hier
Reist du jetzt so weit
Durch Räume und die Zeit
Der Rand vom Universum ist schon längst für dich bereit

Finisterra

Em⁹
When I left, I fell asleep, and no one turned the light back on
D
Set off to walk six hundred miles on the day the night begun
Cmaj⁷
Sorpresa took my hand, as we walked across the land
H⁷
Through the sand of Donostia, understand now what she meant.

Leave your plans out, stand out, take the extra route
Accept what’s coming forward, set your inner guide on mute
The days smelled like blackberries, the nights sounded like waves
As we climbed the cliffs of coastlines and discovered empty caves

The brushing sound of bagpipes in our backpacks and some blisters in our boots
The roots on the road, loose shoes and a coat
The mood’s set to hope, thanks to food from a bloke
The late days of summer were the last days of spring
Surprise was a fling that the Basque mountains would bring

Em D C Hm

Sixty naps, a million steps, a hundred faces
Mountain tops to fountain shops, and arrow mazes
I arrived at the end of the world, in misty weather
But the sea shore shines white in…

Em Am⁷
Bila left lost-looking, might just be

Cmaj⁷ D
feeling left out, left/right, righteously
Follow yellow arrows for the alleyways, many ways
lead through Cantabria, But it’s anyways plenty days

As the roads gone steeper, the thoughts go deeper
Time loses tact like an anarchy melody
Floating abstract in this recipe
Add a little bit of everything Discussions in its centerpiece

As she starts singing sad songs, that soften her shore
The houses with answers open often their door
Bila never left and she never will arrive
She’s just counting down the miles of the streets in her life

(3: Jazzy)

Am⁷ Em⁹
I met her in a church, where she never went into

Am⁷ Em⁹
Espiritu knew places that she never had been to

Am⁷ Em⁹
Asturia was hers, but her steps were too small
Fmaj⁷ H^7(b13) Em⁹
I almost lost sight, but keep hearing her call

She’s making me better, mind over matter
Been writing a letter, of the light in the latter
High tide, bright night, the universe is quiet
You give and you get back. By living you get that

Sleeping under stars, we are protected by tarps
Have blackberry scars
From walking too much off-road, cause the track carries cars
Follow detours, because who knows what it shows

Espiritu faith is like a little plant and it grows
Among her face in any case a little sunshine smile
It seems to stretch now as you catch it when you run per mile
She’s a companion that you never really counted on
And when she’s singing songs, you don‘t know where it sounded from

Galicia had welcomed us with water from the clouds
The hope for quiet places and the laughter from the crowds
Hot chocolate on the plaza, fleece sweater that I packed
A wood heated oven and a break to expect

Esperanza: was cooking in the kitchen painting words on the wall
„If your expectation’s higher then it hurts when you fall”
Once she‘d seen me, we realized it’s never that easy
Hoping for blackberry kisses, but she tasted like green tea

The feeling appealing – but we didn’t fall for each other
Fleeing further… Fall was my brother
Falling leaves, for I leave, further call for another
See you soon or never‚ `cause I learned to accept

That your soul travels lighter, the less you expect
Walk to the lastly end of earth as it seems
Before you wake up, turn the lights off, ending your dreams

Sixty naps, a million steps, a hundred faces
Mountain tops to fountain shops, and arrow mazes
I arrived at the end of the world, in misty weather
But the sea shore shines white in…
