An unceasing siren in the dead of night
I cover my ears, but I still can’t sleep
Even if somewhere, someone tries to cry
It’s none of my business
No, that’s not it
This isn’t
What I want to sing about
We’re translucent and
Even tomorrow will slip away
Open up the curtains to a pitch-black darkness
The dreams I sketched out with you
Melt into the night as I embrace them
The world ought to be beautiful
We ought to be beautiful
So someone sang
But I don’t believe a word of it
We just want to keep laughing
I just want to know love
Beyond the window
A single star sparkled
Your smiling face, for just a moment
I remembered it
In a country that lies beyond the ocean
The children are thrown out with the trash
Not being able to do a thing
Another day passes by
Will life in the last chapter
Forgive us?
This trembling life with a temperature of 36°C
That gun, that flower, they were all one in the beginning
Don’t disappear, don’t disappear
Leaving us behind
Dawn breaks
The world ought to be beautiful
The future ought to be beautiful
So someone sang
I want to believe in those words
I was crying to the sky at sunrise
The light shines down upon us
Days that were lost
Love, enveloping them
I reached out to the stars that remained after sunrise
Your smiling face, hoping
I would never forget it
