1 may we introduce ourselves? marked

2 who we are 'marked' was founded in 2015 as a one man electro-pop-project with the target just to create music. in 2016 there was one show in bern, the capital of switzerland, directly in front of the parliament at the GAYWEST Festival. for the release of the actual album, mark asked his buddy david to join- for the 'green grass' video and for any show performances. now we are in two and hungry for the stage!

3 who we are mark eiss, born on september,10th 1973 in germany is working in the fashion business and the author and composer of marked's stuff picture taken from the 'green grass' video clip

4 who we are david schwindling, born on july,26th 1983 in germany is a professional actor and dancer and the head and heart of marked's stage performance picture taken from the 'green grass' video clip

5 we are MARKED together we are marked and we just get up to go on stage and do what we love: singing, dancing, entertaining and spreading love, peace and tolerance with our performances picture taken from the 'green grass' video clip

6 about our music the new album 'expectations was released on june 9th and reached no 24 in the swiss sms download charts the first day!

7 about our music the first single was 'green grass', describing a guy that was left from his love for an other guy. we also did a very nice video clip for this release, full of homo erotic shots and we love thinking back to the day we filmed it- it was so much fun! Yes, here's the link:

8 who do we want to reach with our stuff? we do not want to get pressed in a drawer, like we would do music just for guys, gay people or what ever. we even do not know in which language we should sing :-) kidding, after the first album everybody came, asking me why not singing in german also. so we mixed it up now with english lyrics and, hell yes, we like both! music should reach everybody who's open for it. we are very poppy, electronic and we love beats! and tracks are not written with a template, just use the flow if you have one. we just wanna make people having a good time, maybe speaking out of their hearts and- very important- having fun! in this state, this project is situated right now, we are not performing because of the money. we do everything by ourselves, without a major label in the back. so we pay also our bills by ourselves and we love it to be free- even if it would be nice to get the turnaround one day.

9 what we're singing 'bout we do sing political stuff, we do love stuff, we do broken hearted stuff (we do mostly to be honest) we do gay stuff ('leben' from the new album is a coming out song) we don't want to be pressed in any drawer also here

10 what do we want now? we want to spend a lot of time on stage. nowadays even the gay pride promoters think they just can rock their events with big names. a pitty for artists like us.. this is why we want to introduce ourselves today to you! we would be more than grateful to receive the chance to play a show (or even more) for you

11 lyrics GREEN GRASS 1.) you go out ev'ry night long office days your pants turn tight you stopped smoking in a day your life turned healthy anyway things you liked to do so far no longer one of your parts what do you expect to find the grass is always greener on the other side get out of my bed out of my eyes let's finish now all, all these lies i will wait for you with a frown the green grass will turn into brown 2.) your style is changing in a way i really don't know what to say you put some color to our life you are no longer to recognize finally you shaved your beard this is what really fears to me what do you expect to find the grass is always greener on the other side get out of my bed out of my eyes let's finish now all, all these lies i will wait for you with a frown the green grass will turn into brown

12 lyrics STERNENREGEN 1.) die nacht ist jung, du bist nicht hier, bei mir, bin ganz allein, das darf nicht sein, der schmerz sitzt tief, was lief nur schief, lag's an zu freien räumen, ich fange an zu träumen. wir tanzen durch den sternenregen vorbei an ufos, sternen und planeten hand in hand, nur ich und du, der mond der schaut uns lächelnd zu. Wir schwimmen nackt im sternenmeer, ich spüre es, ich will jetzt noch mehr, mund auf mund, nur ich und du, der mond der schaut uns lächelnd zu. 2.) im traum bist du bei mir, ganz nah, mein herz pulsiert, was ist aus uns geworden. du hast, jetzt alles fortgeworfen, ich scheiss' auf freie räume und verlier' mich in träumen

13 lyrics LEBEN 1.) du bleibst drin, di kannst nicht raus, zwänge, druck, ein kartenhaus. soll das wirklich alles sein, perfekt für alle, du allein. du lebst dein leben nicht für dich, in ihre welt da passt du nicht die tür geht auf, die show beginnt, siehst du, wie dein glück zerrinnt leb' dieses eine leben, denn, es wird kein zweites geben. wart', nicht auf fremde taten, du musst alles selber wagen. leb' leb' dein leben, leb'. 2.) nur im dunkeln, traust du dich, der zu sein, der du bist. antennen raus, dass niemand sieht, wer du denn nun wirklich bist. ist es das, was du jetzt willst, dass du dich quasi selber killst. glück geht anders,das weisst du auch, bedürfnisse geh'n auf in rauch

14 lyrics MUSIC'S MY RELIGION 1.) the dancefloor's our chapel, the synthie's our choir, the rhythm sings us psalms, arouses our desire. The DJ's smashing prayers, the speakers beating fast, the floor starts wigglin' harder, the temple's bout to blast. music's my religion, music's all i need, the beat is like a prayer, increasin' all my creed. 2.) let's burn down the cathedral, the fire's cracklin' loud, the flames light up the dance floor, and heating up the crowd. The DJ's praying louder, and faster grooves the beat, we won't leave the cathedral, we will burn in the heat. music's my religion music's all i need, the beat is like a prayer, increasin' all my creed.

15 lyrics I WONDER 1.) you think you are the only hero, to save your little world, by everything that's new and foreign, you feel your perfect öife disturbed, as missionary of the stupid, your flag is always raised up high, obstacles in your own strange way, are kicked are knocked away. and i wonder, i wonder, i wonder, how stupid one man can be. and i'm asking myself, is there no love, no love for you to feel 2.) as captain of your dump crowd, your voice is always loud, in this bunch full of idiots, you're feeling safe, you're feeling proud. as the marching king of your street, you mark of like a dog, all the idiots there around you, on your trail of cerebral fog. and i wonder, i wonder, i wonder, how stupid one man can be. and i'm asking myself, is there no love, no love for you to feel3.) now it's really time to tell you, to tell you what you are, you're just a poor little racist, as clever as a bump in a car. o to hell with your army of pinheads, we don't want to have you here, you don't have to protect your country, that's also mine, is that clear.

16 lyrics RADIO 1.) kannst du mir ganz schnell erklären, wie konntest du meine welt zerstören, ich sitze hier und zerfetze, bilder von dir, die letzten reste, ein 'sorry' muss es gar nicht geben, ich bräuchte schon ein neues leben. im radio läuft unser lied, mein herz zerbricht an diesem beat, um mich herum sind tausend sachen, die mich heut nacht nicht schlafen lassen, ich könnte kotzen, bin allein, in welchen armen schläfst du heut ein? 2.) ich hab noch was von dir gefunden, es liegt jetzt zwei stock weiter unten, das radio fliegt hinterher, den sound ertrage ich nicht mehr, so schnell hast du etwas zerstört, das dir eigentlich nicht gehört. im radio läuft unser lied, mein herz zerbricht an diesem beat, um mich herum sind tausend sachen, die mich heut nacht nicht schlafen lassen, ich könnte kotzen, bin allein, in welchen armen schläfst du heut ein?

17 lyrics LOVE SONG 1.) i missed so many times, to tell you what you mean to me, maybe I didn't hold you, as often as i should have done to, i dind't speak, time went on, this is your love song this song is for you, i'll sing it forever, i'll sing it loud, i'll sing it proud, i'll sing it forever. this heart is for you, please hold it forever, please hold it tight, through day and night, i'll love you forever. 2.) love comes quickly, over you, take good care of it now, it's gone, so much faster, anywhere, before you know, just take care and hold on, and sing a love song this song is for you, i'll sing it forever, i'll sing it loud, i'll sing it proud, i'll sing it forever. this heart is for you,please hold it forever, please hold it tight, through day and night, i'll love you forever.

18 lyrics RUN 1.) thousands of miles, you left behind, job, house and future's gone, but you're alive, that counts, every night, you're dreamin of, a better life, in peace, so far from home wouldn't you run, if you could run, or would you just hide, to save your life, you would like to stay, where you were born, but you have to get away, from bombs away from war 2.) now you arrive, destination of dreams, screamin crowds, burning houses, part of the scene, every night, you're afraid of, stupid fools, with brains switched off wouldn't you run, if you could run, or would you just hide, to save your life,you would like to stay, where you were born, but you have to get away, from bombs away from war

19 lyrics HEART BEAT 1.) the flame's blown out, all doors are closed, it will last forever, i suposed, i was wrong, i try to chase the sun, always on the run. i miss your heartbeat, every night, nobody to hold tight, anymore, i miss your breath, all the night, wish i could hold you tight, again. 2.) i don't believe in love, that lasts, forever's just a word, spoken easily, dark clouds, cover the sun, your heart is, like a gun. i miss your heartbeat, every night, nobody to hold tight, anymore, i miss your breath, all the night, wish i could hold you tight,again.
