WHEN I LOOK BACK WHAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH
WE'LL BE ON OUR SIDES
BUT YOU TELL ME THAT YOU LOVE ME SO
AND ASK ME IF IT'S RIGHT
IT TAKES US BACK TO REALITY
WHERE OUR HEARTS ARE LEFT BEHIND
YOU'RE ALL I EVER WANTED TO FIND
BUT I HAVE TO KEEP INSIDE WHAT'S ON MY MIND
OH, PUT THIS ANKLET ON,
AND WE'RE DANCING ALL NIGHT LONG
WE WOULD ALWAYS STAY AWAKE
UNTIL THE BREAK OF DAWN
AND IT'S SHINING ON YOUR FEET,
WHEN WE'RE RUNNING THROUGH THE STREET
AND THE RAIN IS POURING DOWN
BUT WE BOTH KNOW WHERE WE STARTED FROM
THE TIME HAS COME, WE'RE STANDING HERE
AND HAVE LEFT THE MANY NIGHTS
HOW COULD WE BE MORE SURE ABOUT IT
NOW THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO HIDE
OUR INTENSE LOOKS BETWEEN OUR EYES
PROVE WHAT WE FELT UPON FIRST SIGHT
I'M LAYING DOWN MY HEART FOR YOU
TO SHOW WHAT'S ON MY MIND
WHAT'S ON MY MIND
OH, PUT THIS ANKLET ON
AND WE'RE DANCING ALL NIGHT LONG
WE WILL ALWAYS STAY AWAKE
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
AND IT'S SHINING ON YOUR FEET
WHEN WE'RE RUNNING THROUGH THE STREET
AND THE RAIN IS POURING DOWN
BUT WE KNOW WHERE WE BELONG
OH PUT THIS ANKLET ON
AND WE'RE DANCING ALL NIGHT LONG
WE WILL ALWAYS STAY AWAKE
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
AND IT'S SHINING ON YOUR FEET
WHEN WE'RE RUNNING THROUGH THE STREET
AND THE RAIN IS POURING DOWN
BUT WE KNOW WHAT WE HAVE FOUND
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A WAY TO RESIST
KEEP ON FALLING, KEEP ON MOVING
WHERE MAJOR THINGS CHANGE INTO MINOR WINDS
NEVER GONNA BE REFUSING

SUNSET IN THIS NAMELESS TOWN
TWO HEARTS A CHERISHED TAPE
AND PAPER CROWNS PAINTED GREEN
WHEREVER SHREDS AND TATTERS FLOW
THEY NEVER WANNA BE ALONE
ONCE IN A DAY IN LIFE THERE WILL BE
THIS SPECIAL PERSON MY DAD ONCE TOLD ME
AND AS I'VE BEEN GROWN UP TO WHERE I STAND
I THINK I CAN COMPREHEND
IF PERFECTION DOES EXIST
THIS TAPE IS FILLED WITH A THING LIKE THIS ISN'T IT
THE SUN STARES AS IF SHE ASKES
HOW LONG WILL THEY BE COUNTING THE STARS
WE'RE HOLDING HANDS AT MIDNIGHT
AND I SAVED THIS DANCE FOR YOU
I COULD NOT REALIZE
IF WE WOULD REALLY MAKE IT TRUE
WE'RE HOLDING HANDS AT MIDNIGHT AND IN MY DREAMS
THE MOON SHINES BRIGHT FOR ME AND YOU
SHE WAS A GIRL
A GIRL OF PUNKROCK HEARTS
AND YEAH I KNEW
YEAH I KNEW IT FROM THE START
AND SHE'S THE SPECIAL PERSON
THAT I HAVE TO KEEP US FROM FALLING APART
THE RAIN WILL COME THE SUN WILL FADE
BUT THIS TUNE WILL ALWAYS PLAY AND PLAY
RHYMES AND OLDER FRAMES HAVE CHANGED
BUT THE CURSE WILL NEVER LOOSE THEIR NAILS
WE'RE HOLDING HANDS AT MIDNIGHT
AND I SAVED THIS DANCE FOR YOU
I COULD NOT REALIZE
IF WE WOULD REALLY MAKE IT TRUE
WE'RE HOLDING HANDS AT MIDNIGHT AND IN MY DREAMS
THE MOON SHINES BRIGHT FOR ME AND YOU
EVERY MINUTE WE DO CHANGE
EVERY SECOND NEW IDEAS IN OUR BRAINS
SO MANY PEOPLE WE DO GET TO KNOW
SO MANY PEOPLE WE FORGET ABOUT BUT THEY DONT
WE'RE HOLDING HANDS AT MIDNIGHT
AND I SAVED THIS DANCE FOR YOU
I COULD NOT REALIZE
IF WE WOULD REALLY MAKE IT TRUE
WE'RE HOLDING HANDS AT MIDNIGHT AND IN MY DREAMS
THE MOON SHINES BRIGHT FOR ME AND YOU

Fake Love

IT SEEMS LIKE I DIDN'T GET IT RIGHT
WHAT YOU‘VE TEXTED ME LATE AT NIGHT
BUT IT RAISED MY HOPE
TO A LONG MISSED HEIGHT
AND WHEN I FELL ASLEEP I DREAMED,
OF OUR HAPPY LAUGHS GOING SO DEEP
I WAS EXCITED ABOUT
WHEN WE GOT TO MEET
IT WAS ONLY FAKE LOVE IN THE END
IT WAS ONLY FAKE LOVE
I DON’T UNDERSTAND
YOU WERE THE TINDER
FOR MY HOPE OF LOVE
YOUR SPIKES WENT EVEN
THROUGH MY GLOVES
YOU LIKED ME AS I AM
AND I THOUGHT IT WAS ENOUGH
ANOTHER DAY OH ANOTHER TRY
TO GET YOU ON MY SIDE
BUT NOW IT SEEMS LIKE
THAT YOU DON’T MIND
IT WAS ONLY FAKE LOVE IN THE END
BUT IT WAS ONLY FAKE LOVE
I DON’T UNDERSTAND
AND YOU CUT ME DOWN SO DEEP
BUT YOUR MASQUERADE
YOU FAILED TO KEEP
WITH YOUR FAKE SMILES
AND YOUR FAKE MOVES
I COULD NOT CHOOSE
OH NO
IT WAS ONLY FAKE LOVE IN THE END
IT WAS ONLY FAKE LOVE,
I STILL DO NOT UNDERSTAND
IT WAS ONLY FAKE LOVE
IT WAS ONLY FAKE LOVE
AND YOU CUT ME DOWN SO DEEP
BUT YOUR MASQUERADE
YOU FAILED TO KEEP

Fall Off
05:04

|
WITH ANOTHER ONE TO LEAVE BEHIND
ANOTHER ONE GOT ME BLIND
I NEED A PLACE TO EASE MY MIND
YOU KNOW WHICH ONE CAN SET IT FREE
AND WHICH ONE IS ALSO GOOD COMPANY
IT TELLS YOU STORIES WHERE IT‘S BEEN BEFORE
AND YOU CAN TELL IT YOURS FOR SURE
THINGS ON THE WAY WHICH TURNED OUT WELL
AND THINGS ON THE WAY
WHICH HAVE LEFT A SPELL
WHERE THEY FALL OFF MY HEART INTO MY HANDS
THEY FALL OFF MY HEART INTO MY HANDS
AND I THROW THEM ALL AWAY MY FRIEND
OH THROW THEM ALL AWAY MY FRIEND
AND I WAS COUNTING THE DAYS TO GET RID OF THEM
NOW THEY‘RE TAKEN BY THE SEA
STAY HERE FOR A LITTLE WHILE
AND THE BLURRY THINGS WILL GET CLEAR
I MIGHT FIND THEM NEXT TO ME
OR IN THE FAR AS MY EYES CAN SEE
THE CRASHING WAVES SO POWERFUL
ENCLOSING IT WITH A STRONG CAPSULE
AND I CAN DECIDE TO SET THESE STONES ADRIFT
WHERETO I CANNOT FOLLOW
WHERE THEY FALL OFF MY HEART INTO MY HANDS
THEY FALL OFF MY HEART INTO MY HANDS
AND I THROW THEM ALL AWAY MY FRIEND
OH THROW THEM ALL AWAY MY FRIEND
AND I WAS COUNTING THE DAYS TO GET RID OF THEM
NOW THEY‘RE TAKEN BY THE SEA
BY THE SEA BY THE SEA
BY THE SEA BY THE SEA

Mercy

AND NOW YOU'RE STANDING THERE
OH NOW YOU'RE STANDING THERE
AND NOONE GETS IT DONE
TO ESCAPE INTO NOWHERE
TO ESCAPE INTO NOWHERE
WE'RE ALWAYS ON THE RUN
WHY YOU CAN‘T LET IT GO
OH WHY YOU CAN‘T LET IT GO
IT KEEPS US FROM FADING AWAY
ARE WE BEGGING FOR MERCY
STILL BEGGING FOR MERCY
OH WHY SHOULD I STAY
OH HOW SHOULD I KNOW
WHERE IT'S GOING NOW
ARE YOU THE ONE I SHOULD FOLLOW
WELL I DON‘T KNOW
THESE WOUNDS ARE OPEN AGAIN
THESE WOUNDS ARE OPEN AGAIN
AND THEY DONT SEEM TO HEAL
IS THERE ANOTHER FIGHT
IS THERE ANOTHER FIGHT
OH WE SHOULD GIVE ‘EM A SEAL
OH HOW SHOULD I KNOW
WHERE IT'S GOING NOW
ARE YOU THE ONE I SHOULD FOLLOW
WELL I DON‘T KNOW
WELL I DON’T KNOW NO NO NO
WELL I DON’T KNOW NO NO NO
WELL I DON’T KNOW NO NO NO
WELL I DON’T KNOW NO NO NO
OH HOW SHOULD I KNOW
WHERE IT'S GOING NOW
ARE YOU THE ONE I SHOULD FOLLOW
CAN WE STILL WIN THIS ENDLESS AND EMPTY RACE
OR IS IT JUST ANOTHER DEADLY EMBRACE
WELL I DON'T KNOW

Man In The Moon (2019)

DO YOU SEE THE SMILING FACES
IF THE WORLD FELL APART
REMEMBER ALL THOSE DIFFERENT PLACES
WHERE MUSIC TOUCHED OUR HEARTS
SOMETIMES SOMETHING CHANGES
THERE'S SOMETHING NEW TO START
AND IF YOU'RE HOLDING TWO ACES
LIFE WILL SHOW YOU ANOTHER CARD
AND THEN I LEFT YOU IN THE RAIN
I STOOD OUT OF MY SEAT OF THIS OLD BIG TRAIN
AND THEN I STUMBLED THROUGH THE DOOR
AND I SAW THE MAN IN THE MOON ONCE MORE
DO YOU FEEL THE INNER SPACES
WHICH ARE NOT FULLFILLED
NOW FOLLOW YOUR OWN TRACES
AND FIND OUT WHAT HAS TO BE KILLED
SOMETIMES IT'S FUCKING HARD
TO TAKE A RIGHT DECISION
BUT NOW IT'S TIME TO START
TO PURSUE YOUR OWN BIG VISIONS
AND THEN I LEFT YOU IN THE RAIN
I STOOD OUT OF MY SEAT OF THIS OLD BIG TRAIN
AND THEN I STUMBLED THROUGH THE DOOR
AND I SAW THE MAN IN THE MOON ONCE MORE
AND THEN I LEFT YOU IN THE RAIN
I STOOD OUT OF MY SEAT OF THIS OLD BIG TRAIN
AND THEN I STUMBLED THROUGH THE DOOR
AND I SAW THE MAN IN THE MOON ONCE MORE

WE'RE STANDING ON THE BRIDGE
OVER TROUBELD WATERS
WE'RE STANDING ON THE PLACE
WHERE I ONCE MET HER
I STILL GOT DIRT ON MY FINGERS
WHICH WAS FROM THE OLD MAN STREET SINGER
WE'RE GOING DOWN WE'RE GOING DOWN
CAUS W'ERE GOING DOWN TONIGHT
NOW LOOK HOW THESE EMPTY BEER
BOTTLES ROLL AWAY
WHILE OUR DREAMS DISAPEAR
WE DECIDED TO STAY
WE DON'T NEED NO WORDS
NO SIGHTS NO AIM
BECAUSE WE ALREADY KNOW
WE ARE IN THE SAME GAME
NOW WE'RE SEARCHING FOR ANOTHER
STORYTELLING BAR
LIKE ALWAYS WE NEED
SOME WHISKEY IN THE JAR
AND AS WE LEFT THE BAR
IN THE STREGTH OF UNITY
WE'RE CRYING OUT LOUD
FOR OUR LEFT OUT OPPORTUNITIES
WE'RE GOING DOWN WE'RE GOING DOWN
WE'RE GOING DOWN WE'RE GOING DOWN OH TONIGHT
WE'RE GOING DOWN WE'RE GOING DOWN
WE'RE GOING DOWN WE'RE GOING DOWN OH TONIGHT
WE SET OUR SAILS AND HEADING SOUTH
HOLD THE ROPES EVEN WITH OUR MOUTHS
OUR HOPE IS STILL STRONG AND WILL NEVER DIE
WE’LL FIND A NEW HOME AND REACH THE FOR THE SKY
AND REACH THE FOR THE SKY
AND REACH THE FOR THE SKY
AND REACH THE FOR THE SKY

LET'S MOVE ON UNTIL WE BREAK
DO YOU SEE THE GREAT ESCAPE
OH LETS MOVE ON AND ON
MOVE ON AND ON
IS IT REAL OR IS IT FAKE
BUT THE MEMORIES WILL FADE
LET'S MOVE ON AND ON
LET'S MOVE ON AND ON
WHEN YOU FIND HAPPINESS IN FRONT OF YOU
TAKE IT AND DON'T DOUBT IT AT ALL
CAUSE IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER IF IT'S BIG OR SMALL
IT'S THE ONLY THING I BELIEVE IN
INTO THE WILD OR INTO THE SEA
WHERE DO YOU WANT TO BE
WE CAN GO ANYWHERE
WE CAN GO ANYWHERE
TO OUR HEARTS AND TO YOUR SOULS
THEY WILL SEE WE REACH OUR GOALS
WE CAN GO ANYWHERE
WE CAN GO ANYWHERE
BUT WHEN YOU FIND HAPPINESS IN FRONT OF YOU
TAKE IT AND DON'T DOUBT IT AT ALL
CAUSE IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER IF IT'S BIG OR SMALL
THAT'S THE ONLY THING I BELIEVE IN
BECAUSE TIME IS RUNNING OUT
NOT ENOUGH FOR ANY DOUBT,
OH LET'S MOVE ON AND ON
LET'S MOVE ON AND ON
LET'S MOVE ON AND ON
LET'S MOVE ON AND ON
BUT WHEN YOU FIND HAPPINESS IN FRONT OF YOU
TAKE IT AND DON'T DOUBT IT AT ALL
CAUSE IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER IF IT'S BIG OR SMALL
THAT'S THE ONLY THING I BELIEVE IN
IT'S THE ONLY THING YOU SHOULD BELIEVE IN
IT'S THE ONLY THING WE ALL SHOULD BELIEVE IN

Golden Alley

I WALK
THROUGH THE ALLEY
OUT OF GOLD AND SILVER TREES
WHERE NOONE FINDS ME
I TALK
TO THEM ABOUT MY DEEPEST FEARS
IN THIS SOCIETY
ARE YOU HEAR ME
I DREAM TO SAIL
A THOUSAND MILES TO A NEW SHORE
WHERE WE CANNOT FAIL
WHERE WE CANNOT FAIL
THEY SAY
IT’S GETTING COLD OUT THERE
TIMES ARE CHANGING AGAIN
TIMES ARE CHANGING AGAIN
DO WE CARE ENOUGH ABOUT EACH OTHER
LIKE RATS IN CAGES
WE’RE SEARCHING FOR EMPATHY
WE HIDE OURSELVES
FROM OURSELVES AND FROM ANOTHER
IS THERE A NEW SHORE IN SIGHT
IS THERE A NEW SHORE TO FIND
AND WILL IT BE OVER RIGHT THERE
RIGHT THERE
DO WE FALL
TO A NEW GROUND
WHERE WE'VE BEEN BEFORE
DO WE CARE AT ALL
SMILE
TO ALL THE BITCHERS
IF THEY ARE PASSING BY
IF THEY ARE PASSING BY
HAVE REGARD
YOU’RE NOT THE ONLY ONE
IN THIS WORLD
IN THIS MOTHERFUCKING WORLD
BE KIND
IF THERE IS KINDNESS
NOWHERE TO FIND
KEEP THAT IN MIND
DO WE CARE ENOUGH ABOUT EACH OTHER
LIKE RATS IN CAGES
WE’RE SEARCHING FOR EMPATHY
WE HIDE OURSELVES
FROM OURSELVES AND FROM ANOTHER
IS THERE A NEW SHORE IN SIGHT
IS THERE A NEW SHORE TO FIND,
AND WILL IT BE OVER RIGHT THERE
RIGHT THERE
WE RUN,WE RUN FROM DOOR TO DOOR
KNOCKING SCREAMING SHOUTING
TO WAKE US TO WAKE US
AND ASKING FOR HELP AND CLAIMING THE SIGNS
THE TREES HAVE ALREADY SEEN BEFORE
ARE WE ONE OR JUST ONE MORE
OPEN THE DOORS AND CROSS THE BORDERS
WHO'S GONNA BE WHO IS GONNA BE THE ONE
WHO WILL SAVE US FROM A COLD SOCIETY
ARE YOU THE ONLY ONE
WHO WANTS TO GET INTO THE BUS
AND MISLEAD VOTES FOLLOW ON WRONG QUOTES
RETHINK IT
THIS CANNOT BE THE WAY WHICH WE'RE TAKING
WHICH WE'RE TAKING
THE GOHSTS WERE THERE
BUT NOBODY WANTED TO HEAR THEM
HOLD ON TIGHT
WHO IS GONNA BE THE ONE WHO WILL SAVE US
WHEN THEY'RE COMING BUT WE DIDN‘T FIGHT
AND WE WERE RUNNING

MAILÄNDER Munich, Germany
Momente, die die Welt bedeuten. Alte Zeiten, die nie wieder zurückkommen, die man aber irgendwie einfangen kann. Durch das
Schwingen von Gitarrensaiten. Durch den blechernen Klang einer Mundharmonika. Durch träumerische, nachdenkliche, aber auch optimistische Texte, gesungen von einer energiegeladenen Stimme.
Diese Elemente vereint MAILÄNDER in seiner Mischung aus Punkrock, Americana und Pop.
