about
A few years ago, I stopped listening to the news. Instead I focus on moments, my surroundings, things I love to do. Since then, I'm a happier man.
Vor ein paar Jahren habe ich aufgehört Nachrichten zu hören. Stattdessen fokussiere ich mich auf den Moment, meine Umgebung, Dinge die ich liebe zu tun. Seitdem bin ich ein glücklicherer Mensch.

News
Good news, bad news, strange news, sad news
Over the world
Good guys bad guys, rich guys, sad guys
Over the world
Eat this, drink that, try me, fry me
Ads all over the world
Send this, rent this, live this, give this
Labels all over the world
Ey, stop it! ‘cause I don’t need it
What for? It misleads me
Where to? Into nonsense
Spare me all that nonsense!
Ein jeder kehr vor seiner Tür
Da hat er genug Dreck dafür!
In other words mind your own dirt
Your own business, your “white” shirt
A guy killed a man and eat him
A model died, she starved
A girl got raped, they found her limbs
A star went to jail, she took things
She wasn’t supposed to take
Mona Lisa is fake, give me a break and
Stop it! ‘cause I don’t need it
What for? It misleads me
Where to? Into nonsense
Spare me all that nonsense!
Supervision, on a mission, data fishing, television
Everything is under control!
Terrorism, climate change, pandemic, fear of change
Everything is out of control!
Gadgets here, gadgets there
Advertising everywhere
All this news in one hour
We are loosing human power
For a lot of things we don’t need
A superdeal because of greed
A standard that we reached
Security we wanna keep
Running here, running there
What’s up groups everywhere
Focus on the screens
Emotions made by scenes
Looking good, looking bad
Searching love from bed to bed
Taking drugs, sleeping less
Fearing life, fearing death
Breathe – live – love – give
Time is our real treasure
It gives us pleasure
More than we can buy with gold
So breathe, live, love, give
