City
It's much too much
Advertisement everywhere
Too much bread and space
Happiness has no name
All streets are frequented
Cold pictures in the hearts
Nobody can read thoughts
The climate becomes milder
I build a city for you
Made of glass and gold and stone
And every street that leads into it
Will also lead out again
I build a city for you and for me
Nobody knows anymore what he looks like
Or what's his name
Everybody here is on the run
The tears are made of ice
And there has to be a way to change it
It can't go on like this
Where do I support, where protection
The sky here is made of lead
I will give no answer anymore
To the wrong questions
The time fast squandered
And you have to hunt for happiness
A city with no existence of fear, just trust
Where we build the walls out of greed and snortiness
Where the light is calm and the water stays
Where every dawn and every dream is worth it
And flies through time and space into our hearts
