(Verse 1:)
Life is amazing,
Life is great,
Life is so simple,
when you just smile.
Every day is wonderful.
The moment you wake up,
you start thinking about
the special moments of the coming day.
At least that's what they say.
(Chorus:)
But behind these eyes
there's a waterfall that's
flowing through my body.
And it's taking all the
good nerves away.
Inside my head there are demons,
that are afraid of the sunlight,
so they just come out when
it's dark outside.
They're like vampires,
hiding behind my smile,
and are searching for blood
by the night.
But my smile is all the counts - am I right?
(Verse 2:)
Can I be like you,
'cause you're always happy?
You're beautiful, wonderful and smart.
Life must be so easy for you,
your family is great and
you're laughing 'bout very joke
we make.
You're life is great.
Yeah that's what they say,
my life must be great.
(Chorus:)
But behind these eyes
there's a waterfall that's
flowing through my body.
And it's taking all the
good nerves away.
Inside my head there are demons,
that are afraid of the sunlight,
so they just come out when
it's dark outside.
They're like vampires,
hiding behind my smile,
and are searching for blood
by the night.
But my smile is all the counts - am I right?
(Bridge:)
I don't wanna do this anymore.
I just want to be happy -
but the demons inside my head are to strong,
so I can't fight this battle on my own.
(Part of Chorus:)
Inside my head there are demons,
that are like vampires,
hiding behind my smile,
and are searching for blood
by the night.
I don't wanna do this my whole life.
Don't want to hide behind a fake smile
and tell everybody I'm alright.
Oh I hate this side of me.
Don't wanna cry through whole nights anymore.
I told myself I'm alright,
just do everything with a smile.
Es war ein ganz bestimmter Ton:
Stimmt man uns da auf etwas ein …?!
Der VERTEIDIGUNGS-Minister sprach davon,
wir müssten wieder KRIEGSfähig sein!
Mich traf es wie ein harter Schlag:
Rhetorik [ ... ]
Beschwingtheit überkommt mich
beim Blick in ferne Landschaften.
Ich wappne mich gegen böse Blicke
und verletzende Worte.
Ich versuche mich vor Verhöhnungen

Das Leben! Als es ein Träumer war
wusste Es. Etwas fehlt auf dieser Welt.
Und es hat Berge und Wiesen gezaubert.
Die Kunst und die Feste entdeckt. Die
Plätze mit Freiheit gezeigt. Und Länder, [ ... ]
Ich weiß nicht, ob diese Worte irgendjemand liest,
Ob sie irgendjemand hört oder sieht.
Aber sie liegen mir auf dem Herzen
Und deswegen diese Nachricht an die Welt [ ... ]
Bereichere dich mit Not und Tod!
An ihren Gesichtern kannst du erkennen,
daß sie human zu uns sein werden,
wenn sie erst einmal in unseren Häusern sitzen,
unsere Gesetze [ ... ]
