about

(english version below)
Dieses Stück schließt schließt auf dem Album eine Reihe von Liedern über das Leben ab und ist quasi ein Konzeptlied. Es werden verschiedene Anspielungen auf Lieder, Filme, Spiele und Märchen, die vom Ausbruch aus dem Alltag / dem tristen Leben handeln, gemacht. Nachdem ich verschiedene zusätzliche Begleitinstrumente ausprobiert habe und auch unterschiedliche Zweitstimmen geschrieben habe, habe ich mich schlussendlich doch für eine sehr reduzierte Fassung entschieden, so dass dieses Stück vielleicht auch etwas aus dem Rest des Albums heraussticht.

-------

This song concludes a set of songs on the album which circle around the topic of life in general and is a bit of a "concept song". There are different references to songs, movies, games and fairy tales who all share the idea of breaking out of your every day /dull life. After I tried different additional instruments and countless second voices, I finally decided to make a very reduced arrangement, which lets the song stand out a bit.

lyrics

Down you fall into the rabbit hole
The place you ever wanted to see
And you swallow the red pill
To view what's hiding underneath

And deep down in your basement
There is a hole leading somewhere
And everyday when your on your way
You see a door to a garden wild and green

You want to wake up
You wanna shake up everything
Want to believe in something new
And want to break up every rule

And there is a world behind your mirror
Where every dream comes true
But you're the only one to go there
And have to leave everything

There is a stairway in the rooftop
Noone knows to where it goes
But you know that if you go there
You won't miss what you have left.

You want to break out
Leave everything you ever knew
You want to find a new beginning
And forget the dreams your world’s based on

And you walk down to the harbor
Ready to go somewhere new
And you would take the first train
That is going anywhere
