Schön Genug
Lina Maly
Pretty Enough
I like the things you do
More than the words you say
And the face of the gray city
More than the way you paint it
I like the cracks in the asphalt
And all the stones on the way
I don't need a goal to remember
That something moves me
But everything should and everything must
But everything goes and everyone wants
To be perfect
To be perfect
Are we never pretty enough?
Is it never pretty enough here?
Are we never pretty enough?
As we are, we are too quick to get tired or blind
We both close our eyes
And yet want to recognize everything
And in a thousand beautiful words
Tell each other about love
The whole world must belong to us
From the sky to the sea
And when we look in the mirror
We don't see ourselves anymore
But everything should and everything must
But everything goes and everyone wants
To be perfect
To be perfect
Sometimes I'd like to be less of everything
And still enough
Want to be without a plan and without direction
But somehow good
Without a solution, without perfection
And without standing out, I want to be myself
I want to be myself
