He puts the needle on the vein
And invites the music in
Between neck and forearm
The melody settles quietly into the bone

(Go! Go! Go!) Bop bop shu bop (Go! Go! Go!)

He has closed his eyes
In his blood rages a battle
An army marches through his gut
The intestines slowly warm up

(Go! Go! Go!) Bop bop shu bop (Go! Go! Go!)
(Go! Go! Go!) Bop bop shu bop (Go! Go! Go!)

Nothing is for you
Nothing was for you
Nothing stays for you
For always
Nothing is for you
Nothing was for you
Nothing stays for you
For always

He takes the needle from the vein
The melody goes out of the skin
Fiddles burn with shrieks
Harps cut into the flesh
He opened his eyes
But he did not wake up

Nothing is for you
Nothing was for you
Nothing stays for you
For always
Nothing is for you
Nothing was for you
Nothing stays for you
For always

    er, i'd go with the drug theory as well... however, as with so much of rammstein's songs, there's an alternate meaning. to me it describes music as the ultimate trip; that without music you are empty, only with the music in your "veins" are you really alive. just a thought...
