Rain

R A I N  :

So viele Fragen… so wenig Antworten… und immer dieser Regen… :( ... tja tja... seufz...
all this multicoloured leaves lying on the ground like years and ages and stages of MY life... blown away by time... (and myself... ;) ... war ja voll visionär... ;) ... Scherbenhaufen lässt grüssen.)

Musikalisch ein eher einfaches Thema (Am G F Em). Ist aber dennoch atmosphärisch ziemlich dicht gelungen. Das E-Piano war zuerst und hat über die Akkorde improvisiert. Der Rest kam dann oben drauf und hat sich dieser Improvisation angepasst. Null Programming in diesem Song. Die Drums sind von Hand live auf der Synthi-Tastatur eingespielt. Contains some cool tapping on guitar.

 

Rain

rain… he couldn't stand it
nevertheless he always went out
dark clouds were moving in from the west
bringing rain all over the land
his shoes got soaked as he stepped
onto the coloured wet foliage

all this multicoloured leaves lying on the ground
like years and ages and stages of his life
blown away by time...
and somehow it just didn't seem to fit
these coloured leaves, these happy leaves
and the all so grey, grey sky

anyway, rain made him sad
and it rained so often, rained so often these days
knockin' noisy on the windowpane
wetting his pillow, then and again
he felt that he grew older

he had so many questions not asked yet
so little answers able to fit
so many reasons to finally quit
'cause questions lead to knowledge and it is known
that knowledge doesn't make you happy

so he is wandering around aimlessly in the rain
wordless and thoughtless
and so restless, restless, restless,
in the rain
restless in the rain
in the cruel, cruel rain
restless in the rain
in the rain
restless in the rain
restless in the rain
restless...
