Heile Welt [English translation]
Heile Welt [English translation]
[Part 1]
I want out, I want to get out of these shoes
even though they look good, I don't look good in them
landing on the stomach, better than kicking the bucket
See pinstripe pictures wander away from each other
and I put dots behind question marks
My life a gift, packed in an on-hold-loop
Knots break, unpack it with lit-up kids' eyes
lick the blood, suck something new out of my fingers
and I dance one-legged over the abyss
let me fall to see what happens
I crash in this seemingly perfect world
Apparently back to me again (x3)
[Refrain]
I lay on the ground
I can feel the earth again
let the stars burn out
breath in and out
I apparently have to leave here
Apparently back to me
I pull my head out of the noose
of this apparently perfect world (x2)
[Part 2: Olli Banjo]
I read my way through a wall of comics - you can't see anything through it
The shoulders are simply too tense - nothing comes through
I cling to the pillows, tactfulness made of crutches
but the bed frame pokes me in the back through the mattress
I need to get up, strict soldiers, sitting in my stomach
I want to burp, I don't want to know anything about that
Open the catalogue, blood drips from the nose tip
Want to scratch the cliché from page 13 in my arm
It could be so easy, but the boy lives
and he doesn't trade his status as a "child of divorce" for lung cancer
I don't take drugs anymore, I don't want to lay in death
I feel the ground, see the moon from bird's eye view
God says "you are a wunderkind, look for your father"
I take the rocks out of my backpack and ride my bike to London
This is Africa, beige telephone from the 80s
I dial his number using the rotary
Apparently back to me again (x2)
