I Sell Dreams

I haven’t forgotten this melody,
although so many years have gone by.
I remember onlookers and a crowd of kids who, like me,
were standing there, being all ears.
 
Every day at the same time
an elderly gentleman used to stop in front of the house.
He used to play resonantly a colourful barrel organ
and sing us this song:
 
'For one penny I sell dreams,
for one penny I change sorrows into laughter.
For one penny I take away your tears
and I bring you joy instead'.
 
Today nobody knows what happened to him,
when the sound of the barrel organ died down.
But since that time sometimes I long for
the resonant melody of those years.
 
'For one penny I sell dreams,
for one penny I change sorrows into laughter.
For one penny I take away your tears
and I bring you joy instead'.

Dedication and Loyalty to the Country

When the fiery smoke rises I look at the vast land towards the north,
the roaring of the dragons and neighing of the horses are echoed by the chilling sword,
my heart is as boundless as the water of the yellow river,
who could challenge the power in the past twenty years
hatred is driving me towards madness, where my wide sword points,
countless brothers with loyal souls buried their bones in unfamiliar lands,
all would die a hundred times to protect the country and the land,
I sigh with the deepest regret, yet I could not find a word to say, only blood and tear fill my eyes
the horses runs towards the south, but the people look towards the north,
towards the north, the grass are just dry and yellow, with dusts flying high
I am willing to station here and re-claim my land
the mighty China should be paid tributes and respect

You have to die a couple of times before you can live

Versions: #1
they were only kids
but got married anyways
on the airport
and flew to Krakow
and so many things
was sad with that trip
because he didn't love her
and she didn't notice
badabapapa bapadapa
badabapapa bapadapa
 
and her new love
bent him down so easily in front of her
without even knowing about the suffering of young Werther
and that was the first time
he got beat up by a stranger
and how would he hold back his tears
badabapapa bapadapa
badabapapa bapadapa
 
and he got the residues of Magdalena
when she got dumped by Ola
they were almost at the end of Casablanca
in the scene he grew up in
and just like that he left her
on a dusty road beneath a tree
that was the last time he saw her
 
you have to go through shame
you have to go through dreams
you have to die a couple times before you can live
 
he fell asleep behind
his new sunglasses
and he dreamt that he didn't need anyone
and when he woke up
there was a note on his forehead
''Now you know everything about nothing, you fucking loser''
 
i had to change something
you had just left me
i woke up and cradled a bottle of gin
but in the dream I just dreamt I held you
and I saw my youth
full throttle away
and then drive straight into a mountain wall
you have to die a couple times before you can live
 
you have to go through shame
you have to go through dreams
you have to die a couple times before you can live
you have to go through shame
you have to go through dreams
you have to die a couple times before you can live
 
you have to
you have to
you have to die a couple times before you can live
before you can live

Evewalk

Through nestle night
our footsteps hush along
Hands shiver pale for clenching terror
The shine slits sharp in silhouettes our heads
in shadow
Us!
High glims the star
The poplar hangs aloft
and
heaves the Earth behind
Sleepy Earth embraces naked Sky
You see and shudder
Your lips steam
The Sky kisses
and
Us bears the Kiss!

Skiing

Fridaynight I put the skis
On my car and I drive to
Stubaital or to Zell am See
Because there, on top of the mountains
They always have the best snow!
 
(Chorus)
Cause I want:
Skiing!
Skiing!
Wow wow wow,
Skiing!
Because skiing is the greatest thing
You ever can imagine!
 
In the early morning I am the first to reach the peak,
So that I won't have to wait so long for the ride up there.
Up there I buy a Jägertea at the lodge,
Because such a tea turns the snow
Into something really beautiful!
 
(Chorus)
 
And when the snow is like powder
And when the sun is shining,
Then I am completely happy.
I am standing at the peak, I look down into the valley.
Everyone is happy, everyone is feeling great,
And only wants:
 
Skiing!
Skiing!
Skiing!
Because skiing is the greatest thing
You ever can imagine!
 
Sunday evening I put the skis
On my car. But then I am overwhelmed
And I look back to the mountains and think by myself:
'What the hack!
I won't drive home yet!
I will stay Monday too!'
 
Skiing!
Skiing!
Wow wow wow,
Skiing!
Because skiing is the greatest thing
You ever can imagine!
Skiing!
Skiing!
Wow wow wow,
Skiing!
Skiing!
Skiing!
Wow wow wow,
Skiing!

Pinch me

And again I take the subway from work to home
Outside it's raining, inside it stinks and I barely can stand it
The people, sitting or standing, all look so sad
I think it's due to being in the subway-
There can't be another reason!
 
In the pub I always meet a man who talks an awful lot
He is so rich, he is so good, he knows the whole world
But in fact he is a terrible person, afraid of working and always drunk
He is dirty, he stinks -
In short, he is a real pig!
 
Pinch me, I think I'm dreaming!
This can't be real, is this our home?
Pinch me, doesn't matter where!
I can't believe it, it doesn't make sense!
But pinching doesn't help me, I am confused -
Couldn't maybe someone slap my face?
Thank you, now it's clear to me:
It is true, it is true!
 
'The youth has no ideals, no appreciation of real values
Their life is too good, they don't know any hardness!'
Say those who always show the white feather, are greedy for money and corrupt
Become retired after a scandal - in short: are a real role model!
 
Pinch me, I think I'm dreaming!
This can't be real, is this our home?
Pinch me, doesn't matter where!
I can't believe it, it doesn't make sense!
But pinching doesn't help me, I am confused -
Couldn't maybe someone slap my face?
Thank you, now it's clear to me:
It is true, it is true!

I'm Sorry


I heard that you already crossed that river of no return, and I wonder what it means
On the tip of your tongue that was already stone cold and your moves that were already stone hard
 
Your face that used to beam with smiles, the sound of your heart that used to beat without stopping
And your tiny whispers of happiness, all of those were too big a world for me, I guess
 
I turn around, struggling to hide emotions and pretending not to know,
My eyes are vacant and my heart breaks
My longing surges through me like crazy but I can’t get myself out of it,
“Why can’t it be me?”
 
As we’ve already begun parting ways,
Love fades away and recedes from my view again
Knowing it all, though, my heart couldn’t resist holding into you
I’m sorry, I’m sorry
 
I turn around, struggling to hide emotions and pretending not to know,
My eyes are vacant and my heart breaks
My longing surges through me like crazy but I can’t get myself out of it,
“Why can’t it be me?”
 
As we’ve already begun parting ways,
Love fades away and recedes from my view again
Knowing it all, though, my heart couldn’t resist holding into you
I’m sorry, I’m sorry

Once my brother

[Verse 1: Søren Karim]
You were my best friend, my loyal companion
My blood, my brother, my squire in the battle of childhood
But the years rushed by, and we couldn't keep up
I'd wish I could rewind time
 
[Pre-chorus: Lau]
So that you may blow your own cloud
And you may sail in your own lake1
But never forget who was there from the start
And you may build your own town
But don't count on getting a visit
But if everything crumbles, I'll be there
 
[Chorus: Lau]
Once my brother
Always my brother
Once my brother
Once my brother
Always my brother
 
[Verse 2: Mads]
We grew up side by side, and I remember for better or worse
We laughed, we cried, did all we could get to do
I haven't seen you in a thousand years
Too busy, too much, lost in a moment
 
[Pre-chorus: Lau]
So that you may blow your own cloud
And you may sail in your own lake
But never forget who was there from the start
And you may build your own town
But don't count on getting a visit
But if everything crumbles, I'll be there
 
[Chorus: Lau]
Once my brother
Always my brother
Once my brother
Once my brother
Always my brother
 
[Verse 3: Loke Deph]
We could kill a man together
Let me know, I've got it all under control, let the clouds come crashing down
We'll drive to Saltholm2 when the shadows grow long
Getting close to one another, don't be afraid
Do you recall what you said when you said once?
I thought it was permanent, we made the plan
But if anything's up, say my name three times
And I'll be ready, just call me, let's talk
 
[Chorus: Lau]
Once my brother
Always my brother

Only Those Who Know Wistful Longing

Only those who know wistful longing1
know from what I suffer!
Alone and detached
of all joy,
I look to the heavens,
towards that direction.
 
Oh! Whoever loves and knows me
is in the vastness.
It deceives me, it burns
my intestines.
Only those who know wistful longing
know from what I suffer!
 
  • 1. The word 'Sehnsucht' has no direct translation in English. It is often translated as longing, yearning, hunger, desire, etc., but it is far more nuanced and beautiful than what any of those words can capture.The British author C.S. Lewis described it as 'the inconsolable longing in the heart for we know not what.”

Once upon a time in New York city

There's always something going on
in New York City
Det är bökigt, rökigt, stökigt att vara där
Ändå finns där allt du drömmer om
Problems, Yes you'll forget them
They are hiding this adventure so
Everyday is the start of something big in New York City
Even though it felt a little bit lonely when you came
You can atleast imagine turning it
if they choose you when it happens
you went back around and dreamed of
 
So, Oliver, come on
Don't be shy, my friend
Feel that you are
that what everyone wants
 
What you dream of
is already on the go
Something's going on
in New York City
 
If there's always something going on
in New York City
Why do you miss what you don't have?
Who can believe that in nine lives a night
When you're a little soaking wet cat
When the rain said:
'You're left alone?'
 
Interlude
 
My Oliver, believe in me
Where the rainbow ends
There is a place for you
Where you get home
 
What you dream of
is already on the go
Something's going on
in New York City
 
Interlude
 
Hear the song
And continue the dreams
you dream of
 
Something's going on
in New York City
 
Hear the song
And continue the dreams
you dream of
 
Something's going on
in New York City
 
Something's going on
in New York City

Yoko from the docks, Yokohama, Yokosuka


If it happened a moment ago, I'd remember
If it happened a year ago, I don't know
You say it's a long haired woman. There are a lot here.
Sorry. Ask somebody else
Hey, you got something with that girl!
Yoko from the docks, Yokohama, Yokosuka
 
She quitter half year ago. She didn't even saluted us
She took a Mary client, she made an uproar
You can't have such lack of manners
Hey, you got something with that girl!
Yoko from the docks, Yokohama, Yokosuka
 
It's a girl who came from Yokohama
She was good for jitterbugging
She was there until three months ago. One night she picked a kitten
She scaped with the kitten
I don't know to where
Hey, you got something with that girl!
Yoko from the docks, Yokohama, Yokosuka
 
Though she said she liked Yokosuka
She looked pitiable with foreigners
Though she was a girl who didn't speak much
She talked with the kitten
She paid me in advance a month ago and she left
Hey, you got something with that girl!
Yoko from the docks, Yokohama, Yokosuka
 
A while ago she was sitting on a box of that corner
A client touched her somewhere and she ran from the store
Somehow that girls doesn't want to be an innocent baby
Hey, you're in love with that girl, aren't you?
Yoko from the docks, Yokohama, Yokosuka

Women port town


Women port town
Why the sunrise comes too early?
'Then, goodbye'
Murmured a man like a black gull
Farewell words are very fleeting
Though I want it, I can't forget
A painful love
Women port town, my farewell tears
Nobody will understand them
 
Women port town
Crying, you raise the anchors
'You shouldn't cry' says a man
Who in a hurry he waves his hand on the deck
Though I understand it's a temporary consolation
Though I want it, I can't forget
A painful love
Women port town, in my lonely smile
A rain of sorrows fall
 
Though I hate such man from the heart
Though I want it, I can't forget
A painful love
Women port town, my farewell tears
Nobody will understand them

The vengeance of Hell boils

Versions: #3
The vengeance of Hell boils in my heart,
Death and despair flame about me!
If Sarastro does not through you feel
The pain of death,
Then you will be my daughter nevermore,
Then you will be my daughter nevermore.
 
Disowned may you be forever,
Abandoned may you be forever,
Destroyed be forever
All the bonds of nature,
If not through you
Sarastro becomes pale! (as death)
 
Hear, Gods of Revenge,
Hear a mother's oath!

Gangári

I came across a good young man
He seized his sword from his drawstring
He has won respect for himself
So he slayed men at Draugagill
 
The sword's edge was shining
Cut there into magic runes
One battled against a whole gang
His battlecry was loud
 
Bit the blade in two
I got blood in my mouth
He stood here strongly but
Now the boy lacks strength
 
I look on in silence
The throat is cut open
Soon this will be our brother
He is exhausted
 
A bitter edge
A broken rune
 
Game over
The blade betrayed [him]

Once Upon a Time in Stockholm

'Come with me', said my friend
The first silent winter snow is falling now
And the summer is over
 
'I've got a sailboat on Lake Klara'
'Come, my friend, my boat is as white as snow'
'Yes, come on, let's set sail away'
 
'Come, my friend, come onboard'
'There you can see our Riddarfjärd which the snow has covered all in white'
Now our boat is sailing out in the snow
 
Yes, the winter in Stockholm is a strange world
Different kinds of seagulls in silent and beautiful snow
And the Island of Stockholm is lovely
 
The sound of the German Church, it's silently shouting 'ding dong'
A magical shore, a magical land
That is hitting the two of us in our boat
 
'Hold my hand, hold my hand'
'To you and me, it's still summer'
'Come, sail out with me'
 
Wherever you and I are, there is summer
The summer, and it will never end
Because I, I love you
 
Hold my hand, hold my hand

Change now

They want to change me, but I was born for this
Young king, why should I change now?
I paid dearly for this success
Friends and whores always betray you at the best part
You say you don't want to see me and tell me to leave
All the money in the world couldn't pay for the nostalgia
I see people again, they treat me as if I weren't myself anymore
But everyone around knows this way is still mine

But everyone around knows this way is still mine
 
I chose money but that's not why (no, no)
I put my heart into a drawer (into a drawer)
I'm afraid of love and not of everything else (babe)
If I see you around, I change direction (hey, hey)
I remember when we were together
Now I wake up with a different girl in my bed
Friends that betray, it's already happened (hey, hey)
I never turned my back on my brother
No, I don't change, drugs are what changes people
The only thing that changes every day is my hotel room
I buy her a Chanel handbag
On a boat with her at St Tropez
My ass on a coupé
If I'm doing this, it's for me
I'm counting my cachet
Then I'll stop thinking about you (my cachet baby)
If I'm doing this, it's for me

She says I'm beautiful and perfect
But her words have no effect (no, no)
Now I've got more money but less love (cash, cash)
With money you can't buy respect, no
I won't change, I'll run, escape
I swear I'll manage it, I'll chase my dreams (skrt, skrt)
Like a king, I'll come back (yeah)
I'm not a murderer, I've got a finger on the trigger
Revenge is a dish best served cold
Bastards and snakes in my castle, young king
Yes, I was born for this, yes, I know
You can't understand me because you don't pay attention
I won't change, I swore it to my brother
I beg you, don't brainwash me
Here everyone is hating, so beware
 
They want to change me, but I was born for this

The Past

You thought you were going to be a big and famous architect
Who covers all train stations and museums in steel and glass
You saw yourself standing at construction sites of dams, with a helmet
Or in front of a bank, with a toy and a suitcase full of money
 
You heard yourself talking on TV, before the key election
And advised your enemies to go home and paint
You dreamt you were a runner, a hundred metres in six seconds
But now you are standing here with your grindstone and throw it into the well
 
And the past, (oh yes, my friend) the past is catching up with you.
 
You thought you would write an awfully long novel
That is so deep and meaningful, important to everyone
You thought they would take pictures, a lot of acclaim, major all of it,
You thought it would start something really important
 
You thought you would inherit a house close to Bordeaux
And outside there is someone mowing the lawn, you are sitting on the toilet with some coffee
And from the living room someone is shouting 'She looks like Anna Karina'
Come have breakfast already, I love you so much
 
And the past, and the past, and the past is catching up with you
 
You thought you were going to be a petty and underestimated architect
Who builds a treehouse for himself and henceforth hides inside of it
Then someone came, who probably thought one has to go to school
You thought 'I am going to do that. Whatever, my house will still be standing here'
 
Then the summer was already over and it wasn't 4 yet
You drew hundreds of houses on your sandwich paper
You thought 'When I'm grown up, I won't give a damn about growing
When I'm mature, I'll just take the liberty of fooling around'
 
And then school was already over and somehow there was no house anymore
No time for reconstruction, one needs to improve
You thought 'When I'm at the top, no one will kick my heels
Then I'll write the rules, and will relax'
For that one must push through, not only one degree but four
You drew thousands of boring houses on quadrille paper
And using all the lovely money, you built a house close to Bordeaux
But all the lights were always already turned off when you came home
 
You thought 'When I'm really old, I'll finally quit everything
And fill my life just with beautiful, true, and precious things
You thought a lot about it and precisely conceived the plan
On your first day as a pensioner, you will drive to the house of your parents
 
You thought 'Then I'll finally build a house in my tree
That will grow towards the stars, as in my dreams'
On your drive you contemplated a lot and arrived after 10 hours
But where there used to be your house with with your tree, now stood an E-D-E-K-A

A melody travels around the world

A melody travels around the world
A melody we like
A song has awoken from secret dreams
That lives in you
That hovers around you and makes you happy.
A melody brings joy and sorrow
A melody conquers time
She will always be with you
The melody, she never leaves you alone

Country of The Night


I was searching for something
I lost in a forgotten town that piled up by ashes
Even though you, with those red eyes prayed with small voices but I was covering my ears
Instead of stretch your hands out,
Let's just hide together
We laughed at each other with innocent child eyes as our fingers pointed at cleaved sky
Basked inside the light that peeked through the crack of night
Let's fall asleep here where nobody would find us Deeply dyed in the midst of these fleeting passed days,
I've discovered what's called caginess
We've been captured here by nothing but the depth of memories we held close and living by spreading our roots
Would something change, if I entwined our hands? Beyond the cleaved sky, there are big eyes staring at us as we were searching upon a lonely light in this country where morning wouldn't rise
Between the creaking nights
Grieves go on, into a parched impatience I was shamefully hanging my head
But your pure words shook my heart
They have melted my frozen heart as if cleansed everything away
We laughed at each other with innocent child eyes as our fingers pointed at cleaved sky
Basked inside the light that peeked through the crack of night
Let's fall asleep here
All alone, just you and me

Renegade


I hide the recessive part of me that was looked down upon It’s why there’s meaning in standing here
I look for the reason now without running away from the way of doing things I decided
The light awakens my unchanging cells
I wanna renegade down
 
The ringing in my ears was so strong
I felt like I was drunk
If I didn’t open my eyes slowly
All my determination is clinging onto something so tightly
I can’t even choose what to part with
Holding onto these rough crystals
I’m saying I don’t know where I’ll go
It’s not that I’m unconcerned about my life, with its shaky future
It’s just that the distance of my focal point’s grown warped
I left behind anything like a means of tying down my hazy feelings
Back in the past It’s fine that way
Take away and do for me
Even if the world has no answers
Carry on and burn it down
Get away every bug
Take away and do for me
This blurred voice
Carry on and burn it down
You’ve got to be the one you want Because even fooling myself like that Changed into betrayal, I put away things like my hatred and even my compassion By sacrificing myself Take away and do for me Even if the world has no answers Carry on and burn it down Get away every bug I hide the recessive part of me that was looked down upon It’s why there’s meaning in standing here I look for the reason now without running away from the way of doing things I decided The light awakens my unchanging cells I wanna renegade down Take away and do for me Even if the world has no answers Carry on and burn it down Get away every bug Take away and do for me This blurred voice Carry on and burn it down You’ve got to be the one you want Breathe in, breathe out fill out your voice Calling find out your name This is your life You never lose yourself Why don’t you come These are pieces of you Why don’t you come Peace out

With You


Look up at the sky 
The night is almost finished 
The stars, the moon, and even the sun 
Are quietly living
 
Well then, let's begin 
Throw away the sadness 
The flower of joy is blooming 
From that place
 
To the floating clouds 
To where light is illuminated 
Hey, darling, I'm not afraid of anything 
Because you're here
 
Wipe your tears 
A new morning song 
A dazzling light 
A melody with a quiet color
 
Without hesitating, reach out your hands 
A never-ending signal 
Hope is drifting 
Towards that place
 
The traces of tears 
The illuminated future 
Hey, darling, I'm not afraid of anything 
Because I'm with you

Something

Something in your eyes
Tell me who i am
And something in my highs
Whenever your near
 
Something in your eyes
Tell me who i am
And something in my highs
Whenever your near
 
You can tell me lies
I can read your heart
Everybody knows now
Everybody knows now
 
Lately when we keep seeing each other
It feels like time has stopped
Let's follow our hearts
And deep into each other
 
Your eyes that looked at me
As if they knew everything about me
You come closer and closer
As if you knew what i've been waiting for
 
What i just wished for
Is to remember all these simple lovely moments
 
I can hear your whisper
Singing songs of rubies
Roses made to bloom
I am made for you
 
You can tell me lies
I can read your heart
Everybody knows now
Everybody knows now
 
I feel so dizzy again today
Wherever i go, i can only see you, and i don't hate it at all
 
We went out at night and walked without any plans
Usually my steps would feel heavy, but not anymore
Thinking it might be a short dream
 
Close your eyes for a while
If you can feel me, turn around
 
Something in your eyes
Tell me who i am
And something in my highs
Whenever your near
 
You can tell me lies
I can read your heart
Everybody knows now
Everybody knows now
 
Wha wha wha wha
 
I fell for you hard
Don't no body's approval
I'm gonna call this destiny and make you fall in love with me
 
So check it
Tell me if you know
I don't want no opinions
Call me baby let me love you
I don't need no permission
 
I fell for you hard
Don't need no body's approval
I'm gonna call this destiny and make you fall in love with me
 
So check it
Tell me if you know
I don't want no opinions
Call me baby let me love you
I don't need no permission
 
(Please tell me true)
 
(Please tell me true)

Beautiful Gangsan


The sky is blue and the clouds are white
The soft breeze blows into my heart, yeah
The trees are green, the river is blue

Let’s come together and talk about new hopes, yeah

Ápoljuk (szerelmünk)

Tegyünk egy sétát együtt az óceán partján
Kéz a kézben, te és én
Dédelgessünk minden pillanatot, amit kaptunk
Az időtől mely elszalad
 
Gyakran imádkozom, mielőtt melléd feküdnék
Ha hívást kapsz, mielőtt felébredek
Hivhatlak az éj leple alatt?
 
Ápoljuk szerelmünk mely van
Dédelgetnünk kellene az életünk,
Ápoljuk a szerelmet, ápoljuk az életet, ápoljuk a szerelmet
Ápoljuk szerelmünk mely van
Mindaddig, míg csak élni fogunk
Ápoljuk a szerelmet, ápoljuk az életet, ápoljuk a szerelmet
 
A világ mindig változik, semmi sem marad ugyanaz
De a szerelem az idő próbáját ki fogja állni
A következő életünk megmutatja majd
Az én oldalamon fogsz e állni ?
 
Ápoljuk szerelmünk mely van
Dédelgetnünk kellene az életünk,
Ápoljuk a szerelmet, ápoljuk az életet, ápoljuk a szerelmet
Ápoljuk szerelmünk mely van (minden éjjel, mikor rád gondolok)
Mindaddig, míg csak élni fogunk (imádkozom, hogy álmom valóra váljon)
Ápoljuk a szerelmet, ápoljuk az életet (igen, ezt teszem) ,ápoljuk a szerelmet
 
Ápoljuk szerelmünk mely van (élvezzük minden együtt töltött pillanatát),
Dédelgetnünk kellene az életünk (kéz a kézben, te és én)
Ápoljuk a szerelmet, ápoljuk az életet (bébi), ápoljuk a szerelmet
Ápoljuk szerelmünk mely van
Mindaddig, míg csak élni fogunk
Ápoljuk a szerelmet, ápoljuk az életet, ápoljuk a szerelmet

But here I’m a standard man and just as honest My start and my finish are well-established
 
My lingo was arranged as the Korean standard model Only Ours Goes With English Yall Never Understand It
 
Okay I’ll be truthfully honest If you’re a man, Gyeongsang-do satoori makes you want to use it
 
Jeolla-do vernacular is always so warm and familiar Once I hold it in my mouth Uwo Man, I get all happy
 
Why Keep Fighting Either way they’re all in Korean Look up, and we look up at the same sky

TILL

you've asked me countless times
you'll ask me once again
how far my love will go
how wide it is, how deep it is
how endless and how limitless
how long my love will last
 
Refrain:
as long as i hear singing in my ears
and there is rhythm to pursue
as long as music lives inside my soul
i will be loving you
my dear don't think that i'll desert you
i cannot even think to leave you
that's how I feel inside
i'll never leave your side
I'm saying this so you may know
how endless is my love for you
 
as long as you're the one
selected by my soul
to love with all my might
my heart feels you're the one
the one that i should love
without an end in sight
 
(Refrain)
 
as long as my heart feels
a yearning for a love
a love that never stops to long for only you
until the limits of the earth
until the end of time and space
i'll love you until god
will take my breath away
 
my dear don't think that i'll desert you
i cannot even think to leave you
that's how I feel inside
i'll never leave your side
as long as there is love
the world will know it's only for you
as long as there is love
the world will know it's only for you

The fall

We are born alone
There is no reunion
We lied to each other so often
And don't want to admit it
 
No word is lost
There is no way back
And if we both die
Then that's our luck
 
We feel chosen
We don't want to take responsibility for anything
Not built1 long enough
To ever step back
 
We've lost many battles
But we never backed off
And if we die here now
Then that's our luck
 
No word too far, we are so far away
One word too far and we will go down
No word too far, we are ready
To avoid war, to suffer alone
 
We were born too proud
To step back
We have betrayed each other
Instead of compromising
 
We feel lost
There is no way back
And so will the 'We' die now
And that's our luck
