| You were right, the songs came from other countries
|
| We met in a wonderland and stand on a platform
|
| Where everything changes even though nothing happens
|
| and dusk is timelessly beautiful
|
| and I write it from a cottage by a lake
|
| it's easy to get bloody and nostalgic
|
| even though you just changed the environment
|
| We had everything, and freedom was not yet stolen
|
| we had the forests in the south, the dreams in the west
|
| and sandy roads under the wheels
|
| and we knew nothing of reality,
|
| yes we were largely looking for answers
|
| So many illusions that have collapsed and so long roads left
|
| You have won and lost, you have seen yourself in the mirror
|
| You have woken up in the wrong bed, you have been in love
|
| And the future awaited like a dangerous mystery
|
| You are in a hurry to get there, then you are there
|
| In a city that makes you bigger than you are
|
| But in an age that puts everything on earth
|
| I thought I knew who I was and what I wanted
|
| But now I would not choose those words
|
| I have no desire, I get stuck in front of the TV when it gets dark
|
| to follow you in life and hurry me home,
|
| to fill as much as the cabinets can hold
|
| I'm talking to a friend before I leave,
|
| She said you always have to pack light
|
| Like you're always on the go and have not yet seen what you've seen
|
| What should we do with our faith? |
| What should we do with our hope?
|
| What should we do with our bleeding love?
|
| Do you see how it gets dark, how the colors give up
|
| Where the fire falls but still glows
|
| We can not travel, back in time,
|
| and it would only be a step back
|
| I hate my restlessness, I love my girl
|
| there is so much that I forget to affirm
|
| And it's hard, to paw at the popular crowd
|
| Every tower you build, someone else is going to collapse
|
| Some idiot who only sees his chance should take it
|
| Anyone can make empty promises,
|
| and make holes where they promise and swear
|
| It's easy to shut up, and harder to say as it is
|
| You are my friend, and the storms of spring will be our brothers
|
| Our fathers are tackling now, the world is ours
|
| Where the fire falls but still glows
|
| If we are seen, among the mists in the north or in the south
|
| With the dream intact and with the desire to take over
|
| Where the fire falls but still glows |
