Wir haben die Tage mit Beten verbracht
Wir flehten zu Dir in jeder Nacht
Dein Wort vor den Augen dein Bild an der Wand
Gedruckt und verbreitet im ganzen Land

Du hast Uns verraten, verkauft und verlacht
Hast niemals ein Wunder für Uns vollbracht
Es gibt nur noch Rache für deinen Betrug
Es gibt kein Erbarmen genug ist genug

Du bist der falsche Heiland
Dein ist der jüngste Tag
Wir singen und wir tanzen
Und pinkeln auf dein Grab
Halleluja falscher Heiland

Du hast Uns gepredigt und Lehren erteilt
Hast niemals die Lahmen und Blinden geheilt
Hast Reichtum versprochen hast Lügen erzählt
Und hast Uns mit heiligen Liedern gequält

Im Glauben an Dich zogen Wir in den Krieg
Dort sind wir gefallen Es gab keinen Sieg
Es gibt nur noch Rache für deinen Betrug
Es gibt kein Erbarmen genug ist genug

Du bist der falsche Heiland
Dein ist der jüngste Tag
Wir singen und wir tanzen
Und wir pinkeln auf Dein Grab
Halleluja falscher Heiland

Wir werden Dich suchen mit Engelsgeduld
Wir werden Dich finden, Du zahlst die Schuld
Es gibt nur noch Rache für deinen Betrug
Es gibt kein Erbarmen genug ist genug

Halleluja falscher Heiland
Du bist der falsche Heiland
Dein ist der jüngste Tag
Wir singen und wir tanzen
Und wir pinkeln auf dein Grab

    On the surface it surely IS about this "wrong priest". But S2S intended the song to be generally against false leaders leading their peoples into death and defeat. No wonder that you see George W. Bush on the CD case.

    Ahem. Isn't there a more obvious "false savior" in not-so-ancient german history, whose word (book) and portrait were printed and distributed all over the land, who sent all the people into a war without victory, and who is now dead (so his grave can be pissed on)? So I'd read "halelujah, falscher Heiland" as an ironical "Heil Hitler": "Heil Hitler, we piss on your grave and have a good time".

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
