T-POCKET - 1925 (English Translation)
[Verse 1]
A calm and cooling motion
It's shaking off my tension
Surprise! Surprise! It's called being alive
The answers to my questions
Repeating; Have I mentioned
I lied? Don't like the way I'm being tried
[Pre-Chorus]
A lonely heart is what I'm slowly aiming for
Forget what you see; leave it to me
I'll lead you there
[Chorus]
It's not about the money
But the world doesn't agree
A bribe, a lie, a trick
We'll hide the truth
And they won't see
As long as you have changed your mind
Your soul belongs to me
We have got no pride
And no honor to be seen
[Verse 2]
"A little; just a little"
A lie or just a riddle?
Appeal! I feel! But only if it's real
"It works in this direction;
Let's take another exit"
You cheat! I see!
You're not the one for me
[Pre-Chorus]
The happiness of people
Is such a fickle thing
To bend and break
The give and take
Is too much for me
[Chorus]
Love is just the gum
That we replace without a care
Had your heart forever
Now another day is here
The puzzle pieces
Of our life will rarely make a fit
But we take our chances
And go along with it
[Bridge]
The pouring rain fills up your brain again...
It takes so much to weigh down your regrets...
This life is drifting on the open sea...
This boat is not enough for you and me...
[Chorus]
Building up your fences to avoid the best you can
All the laws and morals understood by fellow man
If I could be on the other side then I would be
"Oh, hello" I'd say, but you'd never look at me
If you ever bother asking me if love is really true
I would stare you in the face and say it's looking right at you
If I really understood you better than you know yourself
Then I know I'm perfect for you and nobody else
