Ref.: Don´t play the violin
Because it´s not a toy
It´ll never be a game for you
Just to enjoy

1. There you see it lying in the corner of a room
Covered with some dust and next to boxes and a broom
You wish to pick it up, though knowing there´d be no return
Once you´d light it with your fire, it would forever burn
Growing fascination, spirit of old wood and strings
Makes you do the step fast forward on invisible wings

Ref.: Don´t play the violin
Because it´s not a toy
It´ll never be a game for you
Just to enjoy

2. One last moment you can take the one last concious breath
One last thought that this could bring a soul into its death
Still unconciously falling into music´s fascination
Magnetism puts the air into a wild vibration
Fast vibration of your blood, your heartbeat and your soul
Fast vibration of old wood and living strings, so whole

Ref.: But don´t play the violin
Because it´s not a toy
It´ll never be a game for you
Just to enjoy

3. Touching this creation, transcendental art perfection
Makes you lose the anger and the fear of your reflection
You forget the losses and mistakes of a violent past
Want to keep these moments longer, to forever last
While it´s slowly melting under touch of glowing skin
Time starts melting; play this song, it´s right, it´s not a sin

Ref.: Still don´t play the violin
Because it´s not a toy
It´ll never be a game for you
Just to enjoy

(4.) Though you made the corpus burn, made it vibrate on fire
Though you played this melody without depressing wire
Without force, so free to last, to burn the coolest brain
Still, or for this reason, you put music back to a chain

Ref.: So don´t play the violin
Because it´s not a toy
It´ll never be a game for you
Just to enjoy

5. If only you had never touched it with your freeing spirit
Yes, this fulfilling music, it might never have existed
Nobody ever heard it, secret melody full of passion
Time starts its beat, and even you´ll forget ´bout your confession
Go back to time´s beat, and forget about music´s temptation
The clocks, so bare of fantasy, will be your destination

Ref.: Don´t ever again play the violin
It was just your helpless toy
You made its passion a cruel game
Just to enjoy

6. Your head remains in emptiness, you managed to erase
You won´t return to this room´s corner aat this certain place
But if you did, you would still find those soft vibrating strings
If touched, the wood could take you high on its invisible wings
So gifted by the fire of your most inspiring spirit
It´s not been a sad story as it keeps eternal spirit

Ref.: Don´t regret you played the violin
Though you used it like a toy
You might have made it all a game
But there´s this song
You will always enjoy
