For the best part of my days You´ve been around I used to meet you, In the most awkward scenes around But when I missed you, and that was often And I was turning every stone I felt sick and alone And while the rest of my belongings Went to to Rome As I got stuck here, where the mashed tornados roam I must have had a vision of you Because i couldn´t stop to stare Your love has made me float Like drones above my chair Cuz i believe  This side of me Claims nothing but my privacy And if my father was a sculptor I´d know the source and what it´s for: I’d build a wall of air, Spraypainting pain galore And I believe this side of me can grow I am so... There are ways to play the game When cane is gone And I will lay down proof The way that elvis would have sung But as I bend over my page here I feel a nasty little puff And I begin to cough Yes, cold and cheats Must certainly Invite me with cajolery And in the words of Aldous Huxley: You pays your money, you takes your choice. A lot of things I´ve gained To merely keep my voice And mighty needs cause minor seeds to grow I am so...

Passerby, send a light straight from above I wanna know Somber Self, pale and stuffed - ok for this song I wanna know It´s setting in. I settle in. Thought there´d be some time To make sense of these times Oh, I´m coming down.

Set up in comic blue Penny got drafted slightly new Let's wait and see what's on her mind tonight The ghost she hides won't let her go outside Pettycoat coma still Penny wrote "on hold" on her will Her heart gymnastics caused a drastic turn Relationships are there - I guess - to learn Fistfuls of hollow youth  medicare claims to play by the rules Another prey plays blues on (my) private parts A flickering light came close to being a star

Cannot think of ways to write a rhyme There was never much of virtue to my name Look around my love It's all, all on a roll Season came with Cinderallala Copy men chose wighter lights for chain commands Feel the rest of their mercy, Mercy on hold See the juggernaut of legal streams, See the mice and rats harassing courtyard trash In and out it goes on our lawns Without calming down Beasts of hell Leave it open, make it heads or tails You scratch the surface, then you fall in two black holes Leading up to me riding waves In my fairytale

I´ve been one. Enough.

about

The album "AUS" is the first part of a two-album concept piece. Where in “Second Painting“ the guitar appears still to be predominant, here organic and electronic elements meld playfully and hence define the signature sound of Colourful: calm, yet punchy; catchy, yet challenging; serious and at times ironic. AUS was produced in the year before Jan moved away from Berlin.
