Cover art for Stein um Stein lyrics by Rammstein

I have plans, big plans I'll build you a house Every stone will be a tear and you will never move out Yes, I'll build a little house for you Has no windows, no door Inside it is dark And no light penetrates within

Yes, I'll make you a home And you will be part of the whole thing

Stone by stone, I wall you in Stone by stone I will always be with you

Without clothes, without shoes You watch me at my work With feet in cement You brighten up the foundation there will be a garden outside And nobody will hear you scream

Stone by stone, I wall you in Stone by stone I will always be with you

what a beating, what a hammering Outdoors it fades to dusk All nails stand to attention Into your body-wood I ram-

Stone by stone, I wall you in Stone by stone And nobody can hear you scream


...For those of us dummies who took French instead of more usable languages ;) Creepy song...I think it's about bottling up dreams and instead of living them allowing them to keep us captive, but who knows. I am not familiar (only somewhat) with the band.
