Angst (English Version)
Herbert Gronemeyer Afraid of the past, afraid you might fall Retreating inside yourself in cold funk at it all Afraid of any freedom, of looking a fool You skate on the surface Afraid of the depth of the pool
Fear that you'll become nothing And that time's running out So afraid of getting used to things Only fear remains beyond doubt
Fear that you'll become nothing And the thought makes you numb Angst makes you tiny Angst strikes you dumb
Fear needs an armory, afraid of your foes Oh, but angst won't remind you, most enemies are ghosts Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com So scared to be beaten, so scared to compete Scared of stupidity, so smart on the streets
Fear gets employed as a system, intimidation as control Fear shuts up you, eats the soul Fear of each other, too scared to connect We won't meet each other's eyes, all I's we suspect Afraid of emotion, scared of tenderness Afraid that experience only leads to distress
Fear that you'll become
Fear of manipulation, of being left in the cold Scared you don't do right by everyone, fear eats the soul Scared to defend ourselves, scared and lonely we weep So scared of being scared, so scared we're asleep So scared of being scared, we go to sleep
