We better get going to catch the final train
There’ll never be an ample place for us to stay
I’m sure this sounds scary
You don’t need to be concerned
Turn off all the lights it will be years for our return
Let me lead the way I want you to use your feet
We’ll climb the highest mountain walk down the longest street
I’ll take you to a world where everything’s alright
A place above the clouds, a place beneath the sun
Now we follow railroads or paint our private path
Explore the clouded rooftops and take a photograph
I’ll take us to the hills and throw you in the grass
To make up all the time that we have been apart
You light me up
For I can’t see
You light me up
Or I can’t see
We’ll do anything, anything
We know the stars are all ours
Below we’ll sleep during the day
No barrier between us no boulders in the way
We’ll ride our bikes to the field beneath the bridge
We’ll end up at the river and scare away the fish
Just jump on my back and I’ll carry you across
I’ll always keep my promise to always lead your eyes
We don’t care for the sunrise our home will be the night
You light me up
For I can’t see
You light me up
For I can’t see
You are my eyes
I am your ears
Well this could be
Forever
We’ll do anything, anything
We know there’s so much I have to
Show to you when we go on a journey through my heart
To make up all the time
That we have been apart

Every day
Miles Away
You’ve Become
Out of place
I keep hearing stories of you
About waking up anywhere
And I’ve seen videos of you
Having a meet with concrete floor
The likes of us were rare
If we weren’t rare enough before
How long do you believe
Until the shots corrupt your core
Heroes may not fall
Heroes may not fall
You’ve tried to keep
Your mind asleep
On gallons of alcohol
I wanted to be miles away
I wanted to leave you
On the side of the road
Heroes may not fall
Heroes may not fall
You’ve tried to keep your mind asleep
On gallons of alcohol

Spent my nights on the heights of the balcony
With new plans that advance to new boundaries
Lend me your hands for another year
Just your hands and your veins for another year
Never ever has there been a better time
You’d better mark those words of mine
What could possibly go wrong?
And I should be alright
And I should be alright
There’s still something missing in this race
A mere something that I’ve missed to embrace
Cause I can’t get my mind around the apathy
To reach the full extent of my liberties
It’s not half as good as it could be
It’s not half as good as it could be
Did I really believe that my words would suffice
Rewriting the lines whenever doubts arise
I’ve told myself just a hundred times
“You will never resign you will never resign
Stop filling the blanks with repetition
And gather what is left of your ambition”
I’ll stay right here for another year
And follow my plans until the end

You’ve never told me about the fears you’ve grown
You’ve never shown me the place you call your home
Silently you scrapped all developments
Signed away your right to benevolence
And you will walk your own pace
And you will find your own place
I will never hold you back
Try it for yourself
And then you’ve crushed me on the telephone
You never cared enough to tell me on your own
It’s your right to keep the elements
You derived and honed to craft a new tone
And you will walk your own pace
And you will find your own place
I will never hold you back
Try it for yourself

I won’t even start
Cause you can’t run away
You wanted the stars
Cause they can’t hide away
The only thing that I can say is
“I will get you out of here tonight”
The only thing that happens here is
We will make a difference tonight
Tonight tonight tonight
Wallowing in secrecy
I almost left behind reality
“I won’t say anything to anyone
My only currency is fantasy”
Looking for the frequency
That had been unbeknownst to you and me
“I won’t say anything to anyone
My only currency is fantasy”
And then you said you were okay again
And then you said you were okay again
And then you said you were okay again
In that voice where you would never hide your pain
And it was never again (that you were)
Wallowing in secrecy
I almost left behind reality
“I won’t say anything to anyone
My only currency is fantasy”
Looking for the frequency
That had been unbeknownst to you and me
“I won’t say anything to anyone
My only currency is fantasy”
Wallowing in secrecy
Left behind reality
Anything to anyone
It’s fantasy
For the frequency
Left behind reality
Anything to anyone
It’s fantasy

Echolox Düsseldorf, Germany
An alternative blend of Pop and Electro filling a gap in the polycentric Ruhrarea.
Echolox captures
the millennial disillusion and cynicism in an electronic, hyper-connected era. Yet shimmers of hope and love keep you from falling to the floor and assuming the fetal position in a push and shove of energetic melancholia. It’s hardly categorizable, but somehow you know exactly where it is.

Beautiful and melancholic. Can't get True North out of my head ever since I heard it for the first time in a Cafe in Bochum.
