Rick Krüger - Wake up

Текст с Bandcamp’а: “(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 from Crossfolk Avenue, released November 4, 2016 Lyrics: Rick Krüger Music: Rick Krüger“
