I was there in the beginning, I will be the last to leave
And I´m moving through the ages with the comfort of `God´s speed`
There is no such thing as perfect, so I might apologize
That I didn´t see the darkness in your eyes
I´m a man with many colours, I´m a man of many names
I´m a rebel and a teacher. I am no one just the same
If I give away the answers, you have questions put on hold
But I didn´t see the weakness in your soul...
Love is the only answer – Love´s what you feel
In the end you can invest in love but never ask for payback
I´ve been traveling every roadside. I´ve been sailing every sea
I´ve been circling like an orbit around that cosmic Christmas tree
You think science is a fact, but it´s just a childish game
Cause they never saw the greatness of the game.
In the end you can invest in love but never ask for payback
So the craziness begin, on a cold rail straight to hell
There are 10 more rounds to go, we´re just waiting for the bell
Not much time for smalltalk now, besides the hammer & the nail
Bringing out the monsters from the shadows - ´t never fails
„Where did all the goodness go? - I feel alone“
„Suddenly they´re just crawling out like from under the stone“
Love is the only answer – Love´s what you feel
In the end you can invest in love, but never ask for payback – no Jack
Look when you stand on the brink of that dark hole
It´s like the world just collapsed in this space
If you look for a place for redemtion – You´re not likely to find it in this place
I´ve always looked for good in everyone. I´ve seen so many places under the sun
Now – bail me out or let me down. It´s just you and me and time
I´m a king who lost his crown. I bid you bread and wine!
Where did all the goodness – where did all Love go?
Where is all the kindness – can love find a home?
First you build me up – then break me down.
I don´t want your money – I just need your time
World is getting older now! World is getting colder now!
Egos getting bigger – It´s a playground for the wicked!
No one is really listening – No room for the reasoning!
The cash mashine just opened up it´s jaws & now it´s giggling
Look when you stand on the brink of that dark hole
It´s like the world just collapsed in this space
If you look for a place for redemtion – You´re not likely to find it in this place
I was here in the beginning, I will be the last to leave.
You´ve been told so many times before that truth will set us free.
But still you fabricate your dreams – upon greed and lust and fame.
Bring shame upon your name – it´s so damn hard to elevate.
If I speak to you with clarity and you read me back alright.
So that words may go like shafts of light – Into the deepest night.
There´s no way out of here!
