Alles Brennt
Johannes Oerding
Everything Burns
Come give up, come give up, my mind tells me
And I stare silently at the wall with gray eyes
And I search the room but can't find a door
A way out, quickly away from here
My head runs hot and smoke rises
Blood boils, heart pounds, shortness of breath, nerves glowing and sparks flying
Everything burns, everything goes up in flames
All that remains is ash and smoke
But between black clouds
I see a little bit of blue
I hold my breath, walk over the embers. Everything will be fine
Too little space, too tight, even for one alone
Before they fall on me, I tear down the walls
Come stand up, come stand up, I tell my mind
And if there's no door, then I'll just go through the wall
All of this must go, all of this must be new
Stones melt, shards fly, straight ahead on new paths
Through the rain of fire
Everything burns, everything goes up in flames
All that remains is ash and smoke
But between black clouds I see a little bit of blue
I hold my breath, walk over the embers. Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
And when it burns inside me again, then I know it for sure
That you fight fire with fire
Everything burns, everything goes up in flames
All that remains is ash and smoke (chorus only)
But between black clouds
I see a little bit of blue
I hold my breath, walk over the embers, everything will be fine
Everything burns, everything goes up in flames
All that remains is ash and smoke
But between black clouds
I see a little bit of blue
I hold my breath, walk over the embers, everything will be fine
