It doesn´t have to start with fireworks
But a couple of sparks sure wouldn´t hurt.
Come again, come again, what do you have to say?
Still the fire is burning - but not for long
And what´s the point once the heat is gone?
Can´t you see the last gleam slowly fades away?
Don´t you know that
Don´t you know there´s a difference between
Love and routine?
The last thing i got excited about
Was a new coffee machine.
I´d rather stay forever seventeen
If this is what being adult means.
Somebody to rely on ain´t that
Ain´t that all we need?
Somebody to rely on - and
Nineties sitcoms on repeat.
If I could change i would go back in a heartbeat
To seventeen, seventeen.
I wanna flow like a river and while I might seem frail
Neither men nor mountain will block my way.
Come again, come again, what do you have to say?
Yet the wildest river flows into the sea
The tides are pulling you away from me.
Don´t you see, don´t you see - why don´t you see?
Don´t you know there´s a difference between
Love and routine?
The last thing i got excited about
Was a new coffee machine.
I´d rather stay forever seventeen
If this is what being adult means.
Somebody to rely on ain´t that
Ain´t that all we need?
Somebody to rely on - and
Nineties sitcoms on repeat.
If I could change i would go back in a heartbeat
To seventeen.
I know it hurts
But more time would make
Things only worse.
Taupe walls around
There is one
Only one way out.
Second to the right
And straight on till morning
And straight on till morning.

Your beat is contagious
And it spreads like a cold
Walked with the fear of falling
Sweet vertigo
You´re killing me, Cologne
Your beat is addictive
I`m gasping for breath, gasping for more
Another sleepless night, another restless day
Just another song
You´re killing me, Cologne
Sweet Vertigo, Sweet Vertigo, Sweet Vertigo
Sweet Vertigo, Sweet Vertigo, Sweet Vertigo
Another sleepless night, Another restless day
Just another song

A sense of security and warmth
A calm sea amidst a storm
And every word is a mistake
The way you light your cigarettes
So natural, so picturesque
And every word is a mistake
With every motion of your face
The whole room resonates with grace
And every word is a mistake
So resilient but oh so shy
A distant nod to say goodbye
And every word is a mistake
And every word is a mistake

Poor Adam, down in the gutter
Rank of liquor and piss
Mumbling ´bout his father´s sins
As he´s tumbling into the abyss.
Shut your eyes and trust in me!
A fisher on the dead sea
Shocked at the poor haul.
A cloth cladded corpse searching for his cross.
It´s better to serve in hell than to rule at all.
Entrance Lilith -
The first and finest of all.
Giving her great soliloquiy
Calling herself a whore.
Shut your eyes and trust in me!
A mirror in her right hand
She cackles and she drools
As der left reaches for the knife.
It´s better to serve in hell than to rule at all.
And the choir of angels call out to their god:
"Oh lord, let the first born be blessed by your command!"
And the choir of angels call out to their god:
"Oh lord, let the first born be blessed by your command!"
And the choir of angels call out to their god:
"Oh lord, let the first born be blessed by your command!"
A bunch of wingless losers
Waiting for the fall
crying out in agony:
It´s better to serve in hell than to rule at all.
