[Kiske]



The sinner cries

With all his breath

The runner never gets to rest

The widow fights her loneliness

The doctor says he'll do his best



The remedy will promise cure

The millionaire still needs his more

The soldier keeps on fighting for

Our plastic peace behind our doors



But hey! 

I get a million volts right into my brain

All those ideals just add to the pain

And fallen angels sing the refrain

Hey! 

We passionate all learn to dance on the edge

Some recommend a shot in the head

I put all men's despair on my bread



It's up to you or down to me

Hard-hearted man unlearned to be

The lunatic showed up to see

If he's still him eventually



Still I get sick from time to time

As she still tends to loose her mind

Yes, fortune's still hard to define

Unwillingness sure waits in line



[Refrain:]



You love honesty as much as the lie

Especially when honesty is a lie

The human mind's a turner

Turns out to turn wrong

The ego's such a burner

Burns our brains out strong



Is up to you or down to me



[Refrain:]
