Rücken An Rücken
ASP
Back to Back
Dear kids, pay close attention
Don’t let anyone do this to you
Heart's fire, adventure
Ignited so easily
Excessively beautiful, greedy
Consumed and awakened
With bare hands to fend off
You strive with all your might
Digging, pouring
Digging, pouring
Into the deep soul shaft
Through space and time, I hear you calling
Through the endless gray day
That we fight and yet created
To which I succumbed a thousand times
You can never hug again even when you find out
Life shows no mercy when you take the risk
Back to back
When you’re always fighting to keep it going
Back to back
Knowing each other by heart yet not understanding a word
Back to back
How can you look each other in the eye like this
Back to back
And as long as you can, forgive and then leave
Of your own free will
Our breath drifts into emptiness
And the kiss remains just a thought
Because I turn my back on you
Ready for a new battle
As I long for your eyes, fill my void
Even if I lose my grip, please turn around
Back to back
When you’re always fighting to keep it going
Back to back
Knowing each other by heart yet not understanding a word
Back to back
How can you look each other in the eye like this
Back to back
And as long as you can, forgive and then leave
Of your own free will
The rescue plan, I can get you just as I promised
We stole ourselves from the world, even when the storm rages
Fled from the rain into the downpour, thought it could work
Hand in hand we ran away
And from then on we stood
Back to back
When you’re always fighting to keep it going
Back to back
Knowing each other by heart yet not understanding a word
Back to back
How can you look each other in the eye like this
Back to back
And as long as you can, forgive and then leave
Of your own free will
