lyrics

meet me at the castle

and ascertain

that the request has decreased

and take her name in vain

'cause she looks quite old

from your point of view

and she realizes

ev'ry single word you spoke

word you spoke

word you spoke

ev'ry single

tease me with your presence

and pass me by

so I'm hiding in the hallways

between supermarket wares

I meandered a while

being humbled all the time

but among my peers

no one really cares

really cares

really cares

among my peers

let the storm arise

to destroy the spite

the backbiting and humiliation

underhandedness and indifference

entrain it all

bursting sheet pile walls

you can change it all

you can change at once

cheer up and rise

raise your inner voice

your inner voice

bursting sheet pile walls

bursting sheet pile walls...

when you saw me standing next to the headframe

prima facie I could have been the trainee

and two years passed

tough negotiations - spare contact

would you join me to an art exhibition tonight?

have you ever watched the movie - into the wild?

an exciting journey began

ev’rything changed - it changed ev’rything

now you walk barefoot along the towpath

behind you the blue river, dark clouds and tall grass

and you like my tanned arms

and I long for your eyes

our hearts go haywire

fortune on fire

we were torn between thunderstorms and blossom rain

stick paper pegs - on a wind engine

cast anchor and stagger in the tides

unsecurity on both sides

we run through highs and lows

on the same road

(with) a resembling approach - in aim and note

now you walk barefoot along the towpath

behind you the blue river, dark clouds and tall grass

and you like my tanned arms

and I long for your eyes

our hearts go haywire

fortune on fire

now we walk hand in hand along the towpath

behind us the cloth mill, the old church and our marriage

and we know all of our hopes

know all the anxieties

our hearts go haywire

fortune on fire

stumbling through the dull routine – of ev’ry day life

while the crocuses are already gone

bands of cloud are wand’ring through the blue sky

and there is so much to be done

when did you get up early in the night?

to drive by car – two hours to the coastline

and listen to a flock of birds as it takes up to the skies

and watch the sun as it rises

but ev’ry night you set the alarm for 6 a.m.

to bring yourself to get up out of bed

while hasting through this grey and rough suburb

and drag yourself to do – some stupid kind of work

bustling through the great dullness - of workaday life

while the foliage is already done

bands of cloud are roaming through the dark sky

and you are always on the run

when did you get up early in the night?

to drive by car – two hours to the coastline

and listen to a flock of birds as it takes up to the skies

and watch the sun as it rises

but ev’ry night you set the alarm for 6 a.m.

to bring yourself to get up out of bed

while hasting through this grey and rough suburb

and drag yourself to do – some stupid kind of work

well, ev’ry time I hate the alarm at 6 a.m.

but I bring myself – to get up out of bed

and struggle through this daily grind – step by step

and drag myself to fight – until I’ll be dead
