you don´t want to walk when the sun won´t shine you don´t wanna talk without butterflies you just wanna plant hearts those who grow in trees deep down but if you go out in the midnight just to find out where they live in the shadows behind big walls one hand reaching one hand dead this is how the lost hearts beat at midnight this is how they sound without a feeling cut asleep this is how the silence bleed at midnight this is how a scream flee in the dark all the halfs and all the pieces running fast to a drowned ark dinosaurs are back in the cities and they deny and they deny you can count january to december you can count all the leaves and drops antarctica will swallow the sunlight so free the trees out of your hands this is how the lost hearts beat at midnight this is how they sound without a feeling cut asleep this is how the silence bleed at midnight this is how a scream flee in the dark

Rival Dance 03:49
the world is a pearl for her and the memories are all faked she doesn´t live here anymore her breath froze everything her mouth is closed know salty cheeks round and in circles again she leaves the ground then tumbling and soon the leaves will fall down she´ll be back like every year to throw her white coat out let the warmth disappear summer oh oh his eyes wide open sun comes in round and in circles again and again he swirls the colors touches ground and then light now all the leaves falling down she is back like every year is throwing her white coat out and the warmth disappear

Memento 04:13
all the red valleys and the sweet lilies they have seen it all before they are here each night to observe the sky and the cities and the trees and you and me from the mountaintops to the liquid drops they named every place before (how can the sun burn jewels down) endless symphonies counting memories sleeping cities sleeping trees in you in me please be the heart of me please beat a heart in me i am like a rose in you i´m like a rose in you please be the heart of me please beat a heart in me i am like a rose in you i´m like a rose in you always remember i´m back till december to break the ice to melt the pieces always remember i´ll be back till december and break the ice and make the pieces fit breathe - please hug me and breathe your heart into me and please hold me and breathe - please hug me and breathe your heart into me and please hold me and (how can the sun burn jewels down) always remember i´m back till december to break the ice to melt the pieces always remember i´ll be back till december and break the ice and make the pieces fit ... pieces don´t fit i will make them fit please breath a heart in me and please hug me and breathe your heart into me

The Compass 05:28

about

What about you?
Are you with me, when the thundercloud appears?
Do you speak, when you have to?
Do you see the beauty? Do you see natures wonder?
Or will you get lost between the cities and the trees?

"in a small town in germany where there's nothing to do except watch cows getting older, two neurotic musicians decided to escape insanity and make some art. the result is their very own brand of music, rockotronic pop. "osiris is back" is the first single from their new album, and like their other music is laced with electronic sounds and beats which could have made it cold and rather inhuman. instead, however, museum of neurotic origins manage to make music which is full of warmth and very sweet, peppered with vulnerable, aching vocals."
