indiscribebly heavy I do miss these years which I call the LASER DAYS.

Synthwave Manifest (german)
---------------------------
2018. Synthwave - mein perfekter Soundtrack fⁿr diese Zeit. Ich dachte,
bereits alles Wichtige geh÷rt zu haben und dass es nie wieder eine
Musikrichtung geben wⁿrde, die mich derma▀en mitrei▀t.
Endlose Nostalgie trifft auf einen Sound, der nahezu ma▀geschneidert dafⁿr
ist. Potenzierte Sehnsucht nach einer Zeit, die unwiederbringlich ist, die
aber durch Synthwave dennoch fortdauert. Die 80'er Jahre gehen kontinuierlich
weiter.
It's not back to the 80's. We continue the 80's.
Lotek Style, December 2018.

Synthwave Manifesto (english)
-----------------------------
2018. Synthwave- my perfect soundtrack for those times. I thought I have
heard everything that had been important to me so far and that there could
never again be a style of music that would amaze me so much.
Endless nostalgia meets perfectly suited sound. Extreme longing for a time
that is irrevocably gone, but perseveres through Synthwave. The 80s keep
on going.
ItÆs not back to the 80s, we continue the 80s.
Lotek Style, December 2018

01. Neon Teenage Dreams
-----------------------
Gesegnet sei das Neon!
Sein Licht soll uns alle fⁿhren!
[1]
Upload my soul to a machine
shut down my eyes - reboot the scene
I turn back time - relive the dream
atari, love and laser beams
Your face - it comes to life again
it is as gorgeous as back then
I confess my love - it seems
In my Neon Teenage Dreams
[Refr.]
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
[2]
We're back in 85 again
that perfect moment - never been
synthesized feelings are for real
you activate my love routine
years I have waited for so long
a crowd of friends they are long gone
the dancefloor praise you as its queen
In my Neon Teenage Dreams
[Refr.]
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
[3]
You dance your path straight towards me
you smile and kiss me on the cheek
we dance the whole night endlessly
my eighties queen - my bliss machine
My thoughts now stored on memory
this is my final legacy
Our romance preserved finally
In my Neon Teenage Dreams
[Refr.]
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams
Neon Teenage Dreams

02. Analogue
------------
I loved the rain... back then
made me forget... my pain
rewind your songs... again
analogue - that's how we've been
Nostalgia overloaded brain
brings back these memories again
these are the places where we've been
analogue - without machines
My fading memory remains
a non-existent love romance
returning home for one more chance
analogue - when we had dreams
(c) 2018 Stefan Benz

03. Laser Days
--------------
[prologue]
Synthwave expresses nostalgia for 1980s culture,
attempting to capture the era's atmosphere and celebrate it.
It's not back to the 80s.
We continue the 80s.
[1]
Those were different times
but for me they live on
when I loved the rain
and when we were young
On epic summer days
our life was light-hearted
we gave our love away
during the laser days
[Refr.]
laser days
when we lived fast
laser days
deep in the past
laser days
when we lived fast
laser days
[2]
Back then we were un-digital
that's how we've been
in my neon teenage dreams
she was my bliss machine
her presence lighted up my life
she was an eighties queen
I looked into her eyes
during the laser days
[Refr.]
laser days
when we lived fast
laser days
deep in the past
laser days
when we lived fast
laser days
[3]
Now we have different aims
tryin' to relive our dreams
capturing the eighties feeling
to praise and celebrate it
but just like everything
they had to come to an end
we went our separate ways
after the laser days
[Refr.]
laser days
when we lived fast
laser days
deep in the past
laser days
when we lived fast
laser days
deep in the past
laser days
when we lived fast
laser days
deep in the past
laser days
when we lived fast
laser days

04. Marina's Eyes (Extended 12" Maxi Version)
---------------------------------------------
[prologue]
Back in those days...
I didn't close my eyes to sleep...
I built my dreams around you... because...
you're the engine of my fantasy machine.
I was Sonny Crockett
and You were Gina Calabrese.
[1]
I want a time machine for christmas
to travel back in time to fix this
to tell my younger self all secrets
so he can change how the world is
[Refr.]
I looked into Marina's eyes
her secret lover in disguise
I looked into Marina's eyes
Instead of I love you I said goodbye
[2]
I do regret so many mistakes
all the opportunities I missed them
what would I give to push on reset?
my love for you was always secret
[Refr.]
I looked into Marina's eyes
her secret lover in disguise
I looked into Marina's eyes
Instead of I love you I said goodbye
[Synthie-Solo]
[Refr.]
I looked into Marina's eyes
her secret lover in disguise
I looked into Marina's eyes
Instead of I love you I said goodbye
I looked into Marina's eyes
her secret lover in disguise
I looked into Marina's eyes
Instead of I love you I said goodbye
