Neon light scorches the skin
No pigment absorbs the sun
Numbered and burned out
Progress for the Fatherland
Penned up in small rooms
Grey in grey and without dreams
Voices whisper through the wall
A strange ego leads your hand
And you look up to heaven
And time flies past
And the horizon breaks open
For a small eternity
Closed calmly the appearance of peace
You burn the pain within you
You swallow down every need
You drive Kult* with shyness
You creep on your knees through your world
At the first blow you’ll be counted out**
You live your life in the format
You see yourself as a subject
And you look up to heaven
And time flies past
And the horizon breaks open
For a small eternity
And time flies past
For a small eternity
And time flies past
For a small eternity
*„Kult“ in my (admittedly not so extensive) experience is generally used like „cult classic“, altho it can also refer to a cult ... but I think it is probably more along the lines of ultra-popular fashion of the moment here … I think…
* this is when they start* the count in boxing
