Wir Sind Hier
Alexa Feser
We Are Here
Highly praised and deeply fallen
So often made fun of
But never given up
Laughed off every doubt
Against invisible enemies
The rockets set up
And we dance fearlessly
Over every minefield
We raise flags
Write songs
Send people to the moon
Bear scars that prove
That fighting is sometimes worth it
Like boxers who, while running
Fight their own shadow
Visionaries who carry the truth
Like a torch
Oooh
Oooh
One loves the wrong one
Because she doesn't love him back
Not searching for happiness anymore
Is already happiness for some
We write books with stories
That we never experience ourselves
We become wrecks in the night
That we lift again tomorrow
Oooh
Oooh
We are like chalk drawings
On the street before the rain
And what is a second for God
Is a whole life for us
There is no guarantee
Of another day with you
But we
We are here
We are here
We are here
We throw anchors from a pipe
Don't hold on to anyone
And maybe this life
Is actually just a party
There are millions of differences
Between you and me
But we
We are here
(Oooh)
We are here
We are here
We are here
