The A7V was a tank introduced by Germany in 1918, near the end of World War I. One hundred vehicles were ordered during the spring of 1918, but only 20 were delivered. It was nicknamed "The Moving Fortress"[citation needed] by the British because of the shape of the hull. They were used in action from March to October of that year, and were the only tanks produced by Germany in World War I to be used in operations.
Following the appearance of the first British tanks on the Western Front, the Allgemeines Kriegsdepartement, 7. Abteilung, Verkehrswesen ("General War Department, 7th Branch, Transportation"), was formed in September 1916.
The project to design and build the first German tank was placed under the direction of Joseph Vollmer, a reserve captain and engineer. It was to mass around 30 tons, be capable of crossing ditches up to 1.5 meters wide, have armaments including cannon at front and rear as well as several machine-guns, and reach a top speed of at least 12 km/h. The running gear was based on the Holt tractor, copied from examples loaned by the Austrian Army. After initial plans were shared with the Army in December 1917 the design was extended to be a universal chassis which could be used as a base for both a tank and unarmoured Überlandwagen ("Over-land vehicle") cargo carriers.
I have always been a dreamer
Followed visions of my own
I was born to belong
To the lines of a song
And make them my home
I believe in happy endings
Though I've only known a few
For as rare as they are
Like a bright falling star
I found one in you
Sometimes all the world can seem so friendless
And the road ahead so endless
And the dream so far away
Sometimes when I'm almost to surrender
Then I stop and I remember
I have you to save my day
Often my imagination
Has me reaching out too far
When I fell you were there
With you hand in the air
You knew from the start
Sometimes after all you've done to save me
Through the love you freely gave me
Every step along the way
Sometimes people ask what keeps me going
And in truth, it comes from knowing
I have you to save my day
Sometimes feeling helpless when I held you
Wishing words would come to tell you
Honey, I know I've said it too many times before
I said I'd never say it again
I guess I shouldn't say anything at all
Since you're supposed to belong to him
But I just can't let you go
Without telling you just how much I love you
So that is why I'm gonna say it one more time
Honey come back, I just can't stand
Each lonely day's a little bit longer
Than the last time I held you
Seems like a hundred years ago
Back to his arms that never know
The joy of love that used to taste like
Honey come back for you belong to only me
Well I guess that's about I gotta say
I'm just gonna take my bags and I'm gonna walk
I know those bright lights are calling you honey
Big fine cars and fancy clothes
But if you ever want somebody to just love you
Some day you just may just give me a call
You know where I am and here's what I'll say
Tiempo duro hoy es para mi
Soy pájaro de luna
Gente sin un alibi
Que cambia de ciudad
Y yo me castigare
Desnudo esperare
Que todo caiga por su peso
Que huela a libertad
Del alma quiero la táctica
La mascara y verdad
De ti me nutriré
Mi espacio inventare
Y fue... profundo
Como quise fue... profundo
Oh!, oh!, oh!, oh!… y fue
Por siempre…
Me anulo por fin... la mente
Oh!, oh!, oh!, oh, oh!
Oh!, oh!, oh!, oh!… y fue
Tiempo oscuro en la era de...
Mi pájaro de luna
Y vuelo herido al atardecer
En éxtasis de amor
Uh! a ti llegare...
En suave dolor caeré
(Estribillo)
Vacío en mi mente... oh!, oh!
Vacío en mi mente... oh!, oh!
Vacío en mi mente... oh!, oh!
Vacío... vacío.
Quante alchimie …
si fondono nel tempo come losche vie
non in citt? ! … in mente mia
Cambia cos?
l'et? di noi bambini per l'eternit?
e crescer? … il cuore dentro i guai
in un vestito che non puoi ingrandire pi? …
diventerai un mezzo uomo, lo sai ?
E vai e vai e vai …
e non fermarti mai
sostieni il tempo, veloce o lento
nel gioco ci sei tu !
E dai e dai e dai …
coscienza che non sai
tutta la storia di chi ha provato
stupide occasioni e non ? riuscito mai
Strana teoria :
"aiutati e vedrai che Dio ti aiuter?"
che fesseria ! E' meglio illudersi …
che perdere speranze in sogni che parcheggiano follia,
spacca il guscio e prova a uscire …
E vai e vai e vai …
e non fermarti mai
sostieni il tempo, veloce o lento
nel gioco ci sei tu !
E dai e dai e dai …
coscienza che non sai
tutta la storia di chi ha provato
stupide occasioni e non ? riuscito mai.
E vai
sostieni il tempo, veloce o lento
nel gioco ci sei tu !
E dai e dai e dai …
coscienza che non sai
tutta la storia di chi ha provato
Dort wo man singt und lacht
Da ist Pepe
Wer jeden glücklich macht
Das ist Pepe
Und alle Kinder, groß und klein
Laufen ihm selig hinterdrein
Hoppi-hippi-hopp-ho, über Stock und Stein
Und rufen:
Wer hat ein Herz aus Gold?
Unser Pepe
Wer hat nie Geld gewollt?
Unser Pepe
Und wenn Du einmal traurig bist
Weil Dich die ganze Welt vergisst
Dann frage nur nach Pepe, Pepe, si, si
Sein Sombrero
Ist so alt wie Mexiko
Pepe ist kein Caballero
Er ist klein aber oho
Von San Diego bis Merita
Ist er überall zu Haus
Manche schöne Senorita
Weinte sich schon bei ihm aus
Wer hat ein Herz aus Gold?
Unser Pepe
Wer hat nie Geld gewollt?
Unser Pepe
Und wenn Du einmal traurig bist
Weil Dich die ganze Welt vergisst
Dann frage nur nach Pepe, Pepe, si, si
Sie rufen:
Wer hat ein Herz aus Gold?
Unser Pepe
Wer hat nie Geld gewollt?
Unser Pepe
Und wenn Du einmal traurig bist
Weil Dich die ganze Welt vergisst
Dann frage nur nach Pepe, Pepe, Pepe
Pages turn
My stare burns
The conflict of logic
The crowd stands in awe
Screen in a speakeasy
A man in black
We've addressed many times
And call on now
Thought occurs
I've been here before
Hear his words
I've seen him somewhere
The vision haunts
I know him somehow
As I tear my mind
I've been here before
Never has power risen so
As we lay our bodies to the butcher called
Patriotism
Another shot heard round the world
But this time, literally
As I fall slain by faith
I can almost hear liberty say
I have loved just this once
But have lived and died many times
History books
We were so young
We were so strong
That's what they taught us
Baring in mind
It's only a book
I close it and walk out
Wide eyes and all
How long you been waiting around?
How long you been swallowing yourself back down?
With your feet planted on the ground,
You get high to the anguish of falling down.
You know that there's nothing beyond a doubt.
Over and upward you're billowing out.
Out here, it's a long way down
And you've only got one chance, just one time to come around!
I get carried away on a wave
You know that the cosmos cycles around
To the rhythm that your heart pounds
With youre feet coming through the ground,
You fall high to the frenzy of getting down!
I get carried away on a wave
Headlong between ecstasy
And an empty cup of tea
Bottoming out endlessly.
Spitting possibility,
You're carrying away.
