Die Sattlerei

Listen to the tales and romanticize,
How we'd follow the path of the hero.
Boast about the day when the rivers overrun.
How we rise to the height of our halo.

Listen to the tales as we all rationalize
Our way into the arms of the savior,
Feigning all the trials and the tribulations;
None of us have actually been there.
Not like you.

You're the only one who can hold your head up high,
Shake your fists at the gates saying:
"I've come home now !
Fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father.
Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended.
It's time now !
My time now !
Give me my, give me my wings !"

Ignorant siblings in the congregation
Gather around spewing sympathy,
Spare me.
None of them can even hold a candle up to you.
Blinded by choice, these hypocrites won't see.

But, enough about the collective Judas.
Who could deny you were the one who
Illuminated your little piece of the divine?

And this little light of mine, a gift you passed on to me;
I'm gonna let it shine to guide you safely on your way,
Your way home ...

Oh, what are they going to do when the lights go down
Without you to guide them all to Zion?
What are they going to do when the rivers overrun
Other than tremble incessantly?

High is the way, but all eyes are upon the ground.
You were the light and the way they'll only read about.
I only pray, Heaven knows when to lift you out.
Ten thousand days in the fire is long enough;
You're going home.

You're the only one who can hold your head up high,
Shake your fists at the gates saying:
"I've come home now!
Fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father.
Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended.

My time now!
Give me my, give me my wings!"

You are the light and way that they will only read about.

Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance,
(With the) burden of proof tossed upon the believers.
You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence,
Judith Marie, unconditional one.

Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescents.
Difficult to see you in this light.
Please forgive this bold suggestion, but
Should you see your Maker's face tonight,
Look Him in the eye, look Him in the eye, and tell Him:
"I never lived a lie, never took a life, but surely saved one.
Hallelujah, it's time for you to bring me home."

Nicht mal Drum 'n Bass hält jetzt mit deinem Herzen Schritt
Du hast deinen Schatz gefunden, ohne lang zu buddeln
Bock ihn in den Arm zu nehmen und stundenlang zu knuddeln
Voll erwischt, du Fisch zappelst am Haken
Heute Nacht wirst du im Zelt vor'm Plattenladen warten

RotRigo hat geschrieben:Verdammt! Da schaut man ein paar Tage nicht rein und dann kommt hier TooL?!?! Verdammt! Verdammt! Verdammt!

Naja, das neue ist jedenfalls das Liebeslied von den Beginnern.

I may run and hide
When you're screamn' my name, alright
But let me tell you now
There are prices to fame, alright
All of our time spent in flashes of light

Die Fischer haben es am Feuer erzählt,
da gibst ein Land in dem die Liebe regiert.

Dort oben am Horizont die Sterne uns scheinen,
Möchte ich mit dir für immer allein sein.

Unser Schiff kämpft sich durch Wind und Wogen,
Und Schon jetzt fühlen wir uns wie neu geboren,
Denn wir fahren nach Papaya

We are the youth
We’ll take your fascism away
We are the youth
Apologise for another day
We are the youth
And politicians are so sure
We are the youth
And we are knocking on death’s door

Weißt du noch wir fuhren mit dem Sonnenwagen über das Firmament
Und wir pflückten das Zeug aus den Regalen aus den Läden
Und wir waren komplett
Weißt du noch wir regelten unsre Dinge übers Geld

Vorbei vorbei vorbei vorbei vorbei vorbei
Vorbei vorbei vor vorbei vorbei
Jetzt isser endlich vorbei
