about

Carnivorous sundew grows in marsh.
Like greedy, egoistic humans, the plant
catches its prey and withers its life.
The longing for golden gifts drives our
protagonist SONNENTAU to a foreign
country, where the people fall victim
to his devious motifs. As he celebrates
the day’s prey, an accident happens and he
loses consciousness. After he wakes up, an
indigenous shaman appears and challenges
him to find the biggest gift of all on
the lionlike hills.

lyrics

Sonnentau
The golden echo of a moldy sun
Stretch out your fang and catch the flying one
Stuck between dead ends and the drowning sky
An everlasting trap that withers life

Du bist Sonnentau

We are flying
but we’re dying
You are alone, so alone
When you are gone, there’s nothing left of you

When the marsh spreads to shahar,
the hunt begins
As you praise your prey,
overdosing leads to the end of your way

“Ascend the lionlike beast”,
the shaman speaks,
“to prove that you’re above them all”
