Description
FULLVIEW recommended!!!----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Die Zukunft steht auf einem anderen Blatt
(Future is written on another sheet)
Und keiner weiss wer es beschrieben hat
(and nobody know who has written on it.)
Wir ahnen nur was dort geschrieben steht
(We just have what is written there)
Gewissheit kommt nur wenn die Zeit vergeht
(certainty only come when time goes by.)
2.
Die Gegenwart ist wo all dies geschieht
(It's presence where all this happens)
Wo Künftiges in die Vergangenheit flieht
(where future flees into past)
Die Träume allenfalls zu Grunde gehn
(at the most dreams just perish)
Um uns zu zeigen wo wir wirklich stehn
(to show us where we are really standing)
Ganz Zeit,
(All time)
ganz Zeit.
(all time)
Ganz Zeit,
(All time)
ganz Zeit.
(all time)
Chorus:
Ganz egal wie wir uns wehren
(no matter how we struggle)
Die Zeit sie wird auch uns verzehren
(time will also devour us)
Sie führt uns durch ihr Labyrinth
(It leads you through its labyrinth)
In dem wir stets verloren sind
(in which we are always lost)
Ganz egal wie lang es geht
(No matter how long it goes)
Keiner wird ihr widerstehn
(nobody will overcome it)
Auf Schritt und Tritt verfolgt sie dich
(It shadows you)
Und irgendwann verschlingt sie dich
(and someday it will devour you)
3.
Vergangenheit hält uns in ihrem Bann
(Past keeps us within its spell)
Obwohl sie keiner mehr verändern kann
(though nobody can change it anymore)
Verlust ist einzig was sie uns beschert
(only bestowing loss upon us)
Traurigkeit darüber was vergeht.
(Sorrow about what dies away)
4.
Die Gegenwart ist wo all dies geschieht
(It's presence where all this happens)
Wo Künftiges in die Vergangenheit flieht
(where future flees into past)
Die Träume allenfalls zu Grunde gehn
(at the most dreams just perish)
Um uns zu zeigen wo wir wirklich stehn
(to show us where we are really standing)
Ganz Zeit,
(All time)
ganz Zeit.
(all time)
Ganz Zeit,
(All time)
ganz Zeit.
(all time)
Chorus 3x
Ganz Zeit,
(All time)
ganz Zeit.
(all time)
Ganz Zeit,
(All time)
ganz Zeit.
(all time)

This is my first official entry for the "Time Contest"([link] ) of
Again song lyrics inspired me. I hope the translation is ok. If you don't understand though feel free to ask.
The picture message? Well - Look at it and let your thoughts run free - there are sure a couple of interpretations one can come up with.
I hope you like it

Das ist eine wirklich schöne Idee, um das Thema " Zeit " darzustellen! Die Gegenwart von Gevatter Tod ermahnt uns, jeden Tag in jedem Lebensalter zu geniessen. Den Hintergrund mit den Uhrziffern finde ich besonders gelungen. Der Tod steht nicht wirklich auf der Erde und er hat auch keinen Schatten - aber vermutlich ist das genau im Sinne der Künstlerin! Der Song passt wunderbar dazu. Alles in Allem eine sehr stimmige Kreation!

Öhm...ähh ist das jetzt dein Comment? Eigentlich wähle ICH die Submissions aus und habe dir soeben was zugeteilt - oder war das ein spontanes Kommentar?
Zum Bild: Der Tod hat keinen Schatten weil ich den ausversehen wegeditiert hab bzw weil der den er hatte eh nicht ins bild gepasst hätte - also einerseits absicht andererseits nicht und dass er schwebt ist auch keine direkte absicht xDD

Oh boy. I knew I was going to be in trouble... IWOT
The translation of the lyrics is sufficient to impart the sense that time's pages are our days and we can only read today's page as it unfolds minute by minute - line by line, never tomorrow's. Yesterday's pages remind us of things we can not do over, inviting sorrow over opportunity lost.
I would have preferred to have two versions rather than an interlaced one. Reading every other line is an unaccustomed task for most people.
The image is packed with symbolism common to Western cultures. Time pieces not fully visible show the inability to see what is yet to come, the broken clock the futility in trying to turn back the hands of time, the past fades and only the present is clearly seen. While the clocks have faces "Father Time", looking rather like a cultist, is faceless and looms from a vantage point. The three females are are the child, adult and mature phases we pass through.
The child, facing right, has the bulk of her life ahead, the women in the middle has equal amounts of past and future while the fully mature woman, facing left, has the bulk of her life behind her.
The elements in the image are grounded in the landscape - nobody's floating.
The artist (that be you) has portrayed the darker/gloomier aspect of time well.

Holy Sh.... This I call one of a comment
I'm impressed how much you went into the song and into the picture - only some few parts you described differ from my original understanding of the song and my idea for the picture. The black coated guy is the Death - usually he is shown with a Scythe and an hour glass - I unfortunately wasn't able to find a stock image suiting that need in a special way so I decided to go for this one where I was able to put TIME into his hands by putting it as a picture into the frame. the (broken) clocks all aound them in the sky and very weakly on the grass (since it's a texture) shall show that Time is always around us and the women...yeah I wanted to show the circle of life...child adult and old because everyones Time is gone someday - I left those spaces between them because sometimes Time will show their cruelty and take away the child before it can get a taste of its future the same with the adult women...Time is something omnipresent in everything we ando and everywhere we come from and go to...

I like your thinking about the spaces between the life phases. I had looked at it wondering if a morphing, ghost like transition between them might have suggested continuity. It didn't fit some how. I waffled on the Death figure - it does have skeletal hands after all. I can appreciate the difficulty in finding sources.

Lately I ALWAYs have difficulties to find resources Maybe because I got stiff with the images I already have in my head for certain things...my last Manip was such a thing as well but it finally worked out in the end....my next one will be a problem again I can guarantee
