Look at us and what we are
See the intent. These kids will go far.
Not just another minority
but a northern light to break us finally free.
We are aggravated,
We are what you created and
you’re not gonna change that
Nothing can change that.
A movement has started
This train has departed
It’s too late to stop it
We’re not gonna drop it
We’re off to steal your crown.
We’ll tear your flags down
and turn this back around!
A turnstile at the door
we’ll shake you to the core
nothing’s like before in
We fuckin’ hate it,
it’s contaminated
you’re not gonna change that
Nothing can change that.
We’re fucking angry,
you fucked it up badly!
We’re a constant reminder
but you even get blinder.

German Angst
04:08

We all fear the strange and everything that we don’t know.
They cast their net and use your worries as live bait.
Change facts, spread lies, lure you in and close the ties.
Alt-Right they’re called, but they are fascists on the rise.
Create a common enemy, pointing fingers without shame.
For all your sorrows, they give you someone to blame.
Not long before synagogues will burn again.
A century has passed; “German Angst” is back!
Fear will always lead to anger,
anger leads to hate.
Hate leads to untold suffering.
Can’t you see what they create?
They go around and spread their poison,
poison our minds.
Nothing more than fascists in disguise!
Please don’t be so blind.
Spreading like an epidemic, stories of a new-found enemy.
Rich old men stir the pot to protect white supremacy.
We call them “concerned citizens”. “Gotta take ‘em seriously”, they say - neglecting all the rest. Then they step in to save the day.
Intimidating the opposition to seize power once again.
They are all harmless, until they get a uniform.
First they’ll come for migrants, drag them out of their own homes.
Then they’ll come for you, fall in line or choose your tomb.

Fire Within

Shackled to the road, days on end, it takes morale.
The comradery, it’s just unheard-of.
Lovely people, friends in every fucking town.
I take them with me!
A fire within, it’s bright, it lights up all the dark.
It cannot be extinguished. It keeps on coming back.
It starts a spark, sparks up and ignites the flame.
A wildfire in me, it spreads and burns on and on.
The energy on stage, it almost makes you go insane.
Blood, sweat and smiles
and a shitload of passion, coming from the bottom of our hearts,
is all it takes!
A fire within, it’s bright, it lights up all the dark.
It cannot be extinguished. It keeps on coming back.
It starts a spark, sparks up and ignites the flame.
A wildfire in me, it spreads and burns on and on.
Get in the van we have to go.
We’re gonna be late for tonight’s show.
Best friends, high fives, I drink to that.
This is the best night I ever had.
Last call already, what did I miss?
Damn headache, I’m too old for this.
Life’s going too fast, we gotta live slow.
Friends forever, see you at another show!

Drowning

It’s not like I’m on vacation
in this refugee camp
far away from the place
I call my home
you have to understand
we choose the way over the water
it’s safer than the land
abandon home, run away from here
we are drowning, they air it on TV
your entertainment program is reality for me
I’m gasping for air, but I cannot breathe
It’s cold and dark at the bottom of the sea
I know I’m not welcome here
I hear your racist insults
but it’s much better than facing a gun
we pinned our hopes on you
but you let us down
our hands reach out for you
I sink to the ocean ground
we are drowning, they air it on TV,
your entertainment program is reality for me
I am gasping for air, but I cannot breathe
at the bottom of the sea
at least I find my family

Flares

She’s scared and doesn’t know what to do.
He followed her all the way home, to see where she lives, all the way to her house.
As she tries to open the door, she can feel his breath.
She’s shooting flares but no one seems to notice.
She tries to keep him away but he keeps pushing on.
As he comes over to buy her a drink, she denies him a kiss.
But he feels like he deserves it anyway.
He grabs her by the wrist, she struggles but he won’t let her go.
She’s shooting flares but no one seems to notice.
She tries to keep him away but he keeps pushing on.
However we might dress and wherever we might go.
Yes means yes and no means no.

Endgegner

I’m on level ten and we just encountered and I think this might be it. Dramatic music starts.
I’m not gonna make it to the next level. There’s no way I’m moving on. At least not on my own.
When I saw you it meant game over.
You are the final Endgegner!
We’re gonna bring this home and it will never be the same. You carry my heart in hand and I hope you don’t let it go.
From bowser to princess peach. I’m Mario, I’m Luigi. You’re always out of reach. I’m Donkey Kong chasing after Daisy. Let’s make this a two player game.
You are the one, you’re the final boss, which I just cannot overcome, because it’s not what I want. I need a 1UP, an extra life to spend it all just with you.

Let’s go dancing
what are you waiting for?
Just one more dance before we have to go
back to a world where I worry all the time
And singing
until your voice is sore
when we sing these lines I feel close to you
and I can avoid what I’m supposed to do
I haven’t felt like this for so long
usually it’s very complicated
but you make it seem so easy, it’s so weird
It feels so good to laugh again and
I swear tonight, all I needed was a friend
just you and me laughing all the time
I keep drinking
until the sun comes up
I think I know what you’re gonna say but
it helps to kill the demons inside of me.
I’m smiling
what are you looking at?
I know I used to have more grace but
it’s gotten so hard to put a smile on this face
