Irrlichterreigen Sie schweben und gleiten, ein Irrlichterreigen bei Nacht… Sie tanzen und geigen, ein Irrlichterreigen durchwacht… Sie leuchten und tanzen mit Kaefern und Wanzen, mit grossen und kleinen mit Fluegeln und Beinen, und schneller und schneller, ihr Licht immer greller, rundum und im Kreise, erst laut, dann ganz leise, sie kichern und fluestern, mit Muendern und Nuestern, die weissen Gewaender, das Haar voller Baender, mit Koboldgesichtern und gruenlichen Lichtern, im naechtlichen Walde, es daemmert schon balde… Noch singen sie Lieder und biegen die Glieder, die Welt ohne Sorgen, die Nacht ohne Morgen… Was wuerde ich geben…mit ihnen zu leben…! Sie schweben und gleiten, ein Irrlichterreigen bei Nacht… Sie tanzen und geigen, ein Irrlichterreigen durchwacht… bei Nacht… bei Nacht… bei Nacht.

Once we're gone… Once we're gone… life will take over… ruins over-grown and only memories of laughter blowing in the wind… Once we're gone… green will take over… cities over-grown and only memories of violence rusting in the air… Once we're gone… wilderness will blossom… highways over-grown and only memories of traffic fading in the grass… Once we're gone… animals will wander bridges over-grown… and only memories of humans buried in the ground…

about

It's hard to put in words what this album is really about...what it really is... A nature-diary, half happening in this world and half in the Otherworld? A prayer to and for nature? A wake-up call for humanity to treat all living things with the empathy and respect they deserve? A mourning-song
for a dying world? I guess there is a bit of truth to all of these potential answers... But I let you explore and find out for yourself... Follow me, deep into the ancient forest and listen to the voices from the woods...
