Watching the World 03:43
lyrics
buy track
Sweet angel, my little child, I add sugar to cover the wild and now, open up and say my name, I‘m entitled to rule the game tonight | Feels like a shortcut to the heart, offers shelter and a brand new start, a shot of whiskey, a glass of wine, say my name and I let it shine | And you watch the world go by, bye bye bye, just deny you use an excuse to lose the fight, and watch the world go by | You‘re trying to pick your straw for the liquor, now you‘re clutching at straws, got time to kill another drink to spill, first you lost your way and then your will | And you watch the world go by, bye bye bye, just deny you use an excuse to lose the fight, and watch the world go by | And while the vision seems to decline, life through the bottle looks so fine | Please tell me why you watch the world go by, bye bye bye, just deny you use an excuse to lose the fight, save it for another day you lie and watch the world go by, bye bye, just deny you use an excuse to lose the fight and watch the world go by, bye bye bye good bye bye bye

Too Excited (feat. Meggie George) 03:47
lyrics
buy track
It‘s not a joke as much as it seems, it‘s just a try into another extreme, it is a high temperature feeling and that‘s alright | it makes me shiver in the heat of the night,it makes me shake why am I losing that fight, yes I am eager to keep cool but it‘s much too late | Now you see what‘s going on with me, but you also can‘t hide it, ´cause you‘re just too excited, ´cause you‘re just too excited | Just too excited, you‘re just too excited, happiness pours out high doses, get ready for metamorphosis | The way you smile I can‘t resist, you drive me mad is this last temptation‘s kiss, but in the name of pain and pleasure go ahead | The more we do it the more you do it, the better you look you look so good, and it‘s a sign for all the love on which we‘re hooked | Now you see what‘s going on with me, but you also can‘t hide it, oh you‘re just too excited, oh you‘re just too excited | Just too excited, you‘re just too excited, happiness pours out high doses, get ready for metamorphosis, Just too – excited | Nothing can hurt me no more

You Locked Away the Sun 04:11
lyrics
buy track
I wanna be with you tonight, it seems so clear it feels so right,I wish I could I wish I might be close to you tonight | But you locked away the sun, and the damage has been done, the eclipse has just begun, why did you lock away the sun | You told me all I had to know gave me all the reasons to let go, if there was a chance to change your mind, oh I swear I tried so hard to find the way | But you locked away the sun, oh you locked away the sun, and a simple plan got complicated, while rays of hopes slowly faded, darkness crawls into my mind | Even if I live a lie I love to touch a burning sky, fire to light the way, I‘d die for I‘d even kill, if only time with you stood still in your arms tonight | But you locked away the sun and the damage has been done and a simple plan got complicated while rays of hopes slowly faded, darkness crawls into my mind

The Grass is Green 04:03
lyrics
buy track
A lonely girl walks the streets, she tries so hard live up to her needs, the world keeps turning at a different pace, as her love feels so blue but she sees only red Still the grass looks green and the sky is blue, a growing shadow kills the light and the darkness feels so true A lonely soul with empty handy, she‘s got all it takes, but her castle is built on sand, apparently no one can see, what‘s hidden in her mind, she ties her hope on a rope, lets herself fall into the night So the grass is green and the sky is blue, the deepest sorrow killed the light and now the darkness is true now there‘s no turning back So the grass is green and the sky is blue, the deepest sorrow killed the light and now the darkness is true Why is it woman - that you left your children behind, why is it woman - that you drowned them in your tears, why is it woman - that you was all that you concerned, why is it woman - no consequence ever crossed your mind And the grass is green and the sky is blue, a giant shadow killed the light and only darkness will do

On My Knees (Prelude) 02:11
lyrics
buy track
Fate knows many ways, fate sometimes betrays, I aimed for heaven, now there‘s hell to pay, while she rests her head to lay (in a body bag) | A sudden turn, a need to learn, that a flame has just ceased to burn, burn and shine | And I say Lord, please help me.

On My Knees 03:09
lyrics
buy track
Dear God I hardly ever prayed and I never sang a song for you, now here I am back‘s to the wall , maybe it‘s time to make a call | I got questions that won‘t get answered, so I‘d say they‘re made for you, what‘s done is done, can‘t be undone, I know, I know, so far it‘s true | If there were signs, I missed them all or maybe I just didn‘t want to see, I tried my best, gave all I could, now she‘s gone and I‘m on my knees | See me stand kids by my side, staring at a hole in the ground, an invisible pain drove her insane, any purpose needs yet to be found | Death came as release, at least that‘s what I believe, and though she might have found relief and ended her grief, she passed it on to the bereaved | If there were signs, I missed them all or maybe I just didn‘t want to see, I tried my best, gave all I could, now she‘s gone and I‘m on my knees | And now my head tries to comprehend what my heart will never understand, I hope she travels heaven-bound, enthralled by peace she never found and though I try with all my heart forgiving is the hardest part cause today I‘m on my knees | Oh God is this your amazing grace, now how would you explain the hole in her soul that caused all the pain and a life gone down drain | If there were signs, I missed them all or maybe I just didn‘t want to see I tried my best, gave all I could, now she‘s gone | I can‘t believe there were signs, we missed them all, she didn‘t want us to see, the pain the fire the battle she lost, now she‘s gone.

I Don't Know Why I Said Hello 05:45
lyrics
buy track
Sometimes I just don‘t wanna miss a thing so I click on mute when the alarm bell rings, I always wanted to hear what time would tell , that‘s why I threw my heart into the wishing well | To hide from risk means no reward I thought the only risk is to get caught off-guard, now here I sit and contemplate why my lucky charm came second rate | I don‘t know why I said hello, I don‘t know when it‘s time to go, should have known but I tend to forget all the consequences that I might regret,I don‘t know why I said hello | Some things are just not meant to be call it fate call it destiny but at some later point you maybe see you can‘t find water under every tree | Been at the corner of a one-way street I didn‘t want to watch my walking feet, so I tried to make my mind at ease ´cause the situation was supposed to please | I don‘t know why I said hello, I don‘t know when it‘s time to go, should have known but I tend to forget all the consequences that I might regret, I don‘t know why I said hello | Such a long way to find home, must be the reason to move on, oh I‘m tired of all the words, nothing left to say, I guess I‘m led astray, I‘m tired of all the words | I don‘t know why I said hello, I missed the moment when it was time to go, I should have known but I tend to forget all the consequences that I might regret, I don‘t know why I said hello | I don‘t know why, I don‘t know why , I don't know why I said hello I should have left when my instinct called but curiosity made my motor stall, I don‘t know why I said hello,I don‘t know why, I don‘t know where, I don‘t know if I should even care, I should have known but I‘d do it again

Never Give Up 03:22
lyrics
A ringing in my head a constant sound that only I can hear sort of profound | A deeper meaning rings inside my head of feelings that I wish I would have never had | Still I remember peace | It‘s been some time it felt so good so true, hard to imagine there‘s a thing I couldn‘t do, power was mine, beauty was me, boldness in my heart bound to set us free | Do not disturb the peace, coming down hurts so much, I still remember peace and I never give up | Rose-red skies turned dark one day, all of a sudden something in my way, a numbness in my brain, I realize the dream that I was dreaming was a nightmare in disguise | Who said it would be easy | First you stumble, then you fall, you better stand up, but you crawl, life was simple the future clear, but all the brightness can disappear | Do not disturb the peace, coming down hurts so much, I still remember peace and I never give up | A broken heart will heal but not a broken soul, if you don‘t give it all it takes you hear when the bell tolls they say lightning strikes never twice, you wanna place a bet then dare to roll the dice | Do not disturb the peace, coming down hurts so much, I still remember peace but I never give up

Peace of Mind 03:29
lyrics
Last night my peace of mind came down and tried to find me but I had left the room too soon oh too soon | I saw it stalk´n stare, look for me everywhere, but I had waited far too long, I‘m gone now I‘m gone | Me and the world we have a game, who conquers whom and gains the fame, we‘ll sort it out tonight, cause those who wait to wait and see, wait forever but that‘s not me, I‘ll sort it out tonight | Me and my peace of mind guess we‘re just easy to blind, oh and our timing might be bad, that‘s sad, oh so sad, I felt it stare watch out for me, I'd left to face my destiny, out on the street too tired to crawl, the call, the call of the wild | Me and the world we have a game who conquers whom and gains the fame, we‘ll sort it out tonight, cause those who wait to wait and see wait forever but that‘s not me, I‘ll sort it out tonight | Me and the world we like to hug, but under pressure there‘s no time to stop, we‘ll sort it out tonight, cause those who wait to wait and see will wait forever but that‘s not me, I‘ll sort it out tonight | It‘s so nice to think about each other, to know that there‘s a door to run for cover, but as long as there‘s fuel along the road, I‘m pretending to be Ichabod chasing Mr. Toad | Me and the world we'll have a game who conquers whom and gains the fame, we‘ll sort it out tonight, cause those who wait to wait and see wait forever but that‘s not me, I‘ll sort it out tonight

After the Rain 04:05
lyrics
There is sunshine after the rainand I can feel the road under my feet again, as I start to walk and leave the past behind, sun will lead the way and heat will lead the blind, you see, I know, they‘ll lead the blind | Sunshine you‘re mine, you and me until the end of time and furthermore, sunshine re-align, it took a while to understand what we‘ve been fighting for a little sunshine on the way forevermore | I watched the clouds disappear and a deep blue sky is finally oh so clear, misery loves company, misfortune never comes alone to frown, but I will pick my friends myself, it‘s time to make amends and trains of thought are leaving town | Sunshine you‘re mine, you and me until the end of time and furthermore, sunshine re-align, it took a while to understand what we‘ve been fighting for, a purpose to move on and I‘m gone | Cast your sorrow heading on into the blue for tomorrow, with you, with you, with you into the blue, facing South, sun in our eyes, a distant candle burns in paradise | Sunshine you‘re mine, you and me until the end of time and furthermore, listen father, listen son, mother, daughter and the ones I love I know we‘re on the way, way into the blue, way into the blue | Sunshine re-align, it took a while to reconcile with facts and fate, all that I‘m longing for is a little sunshine on the way, when we walk out through the door

This Is 04:11
lyrics
This is more than I ever wanted, this is one hell of a ride, this is all that I‘m asking for is, this bliss to stay by my side, This is a pretty fragile feeling, is this what I deserve, this kiss came out of nowhere fast, yes this kiss is full of verve | Looks like we‘ve found a way, little by little step by step day after day, if there is one big moment one chance to come, then this looks like this is the one, I know it‘s time to go for gold, when someone comes who‘s worth to hold | I know that I will never know but I know that time will show if this time will stand the test of time and this time you could be mine | Looks like we‘ve found a way, little by little step by step day after day, if there is one big moment one chance to come, then this looks like this is the one, I know it‘s time to go for gold when someone comes who‘s worth to hold | Aha aha aha, this is what it is and it‘s this bliss, aha aha aha, that kind of a start start that I‘ve missed, aha aha aha, aha aha aha, this is

Like Today 03:02
lyrics
She said she never wanted to go home alone, she said she couldn‘t stand to be on her own, she said she always wanted sun in her face, she said she always dreamed of a better place | So step out of line | Don‘t we all just want to be a part in the show, sometimes life won‘t show the way, it moves fast and if you walk too slow, you miss a chance on every day like today | He said he saw it coming, only it never came, this time the time was ripe for the one big game, he knew he was a dreamer but dreams come true and one fine day it might come out of the blue | So step out of line | Don‘t we all just want to be a part in the show, sometimes life won‘t show the way, it moves fast and if you walk too slow, you miss a chance on every day like today | This is your chance, this is your day, this is your life, don‘t let it go away

Just One More 03:35
lyrics
Two ways - now which one should you chose, even if there‘s nothing left there‘s so much left to lose, if there is no tomorrow, if there is no return, if there is no more light in sight, would you dare to see the bridges burn, light‘em up | Everything that has been said, all the good and that's so sad, everything‘s been said before, still you long for just one more | Sometimes I clench my fist and cry, I lose my cool n wish I could walk on by, your constant hesitation feeds my desperation, and while your dreams silently fade away, I just don‘t know what I could say | Everything, it has been said, all that‘s good and that‘s so sad, everything‘s been said before, still you long for just one more | Everything is within reach, but doubt is what you preach, you ignore the open door, and you wait for just one more | Blind eyes may serve as an excuse, but not for wasting all your life, you can still try to feel a burning fuse, If yesterday has been the day, If there‘s no second chance, there might come the time when it‘s, too late to join the dance, you better burn them now | Everything, it has been said, all that‘s good and that‘s so sad, everything‘s been said before, still you long for just one more | Everything is within reach, but doubt is what you preach, you ignore the open door, and you wait for just one more

Sounds like – Bent Not Broken‘s music is the melting pot of rock‘n‘roll,
absorbing it‘s influences from rock, metal, alternative, grunge or blues and forming something new and familiar at the same time. Recommended if you‘re into Foo Fighters, Danko Jones, D.A.D. or even Metallica.

Reads like – Bent Not Broken‘s lyrics are written from the bottom of the heart. ”Same Planet Different World” sums up a list of events which happened over the past few years. Singer and guitarist Jörn says: ”It was never intended to come up with a concept album, but somehow it is."

--------

"It would be a shame if the second album from this German-based band went unnoticed. From the opening track ‘Watching The World’ the riffs are angular, the songs consistently engaging, and the sense of urgency overwhelming." David Randall (Get Ready to Rock, May 2013)
