BACK IN TOWN
(Lyrics by Moritz Schinn/Benedikt Kopfmüller/Robert Hubi Hofmann)
(solo: Fabi)
last night's bloody pictures capture my brain
I have to leave this city before I get insane
I blink back my tears and grab my bag
'cause I'm the usual suspect
the smelly garbage dump and the city smog
the paranoid hobos round my block
the last impressions of my bloody track
'cause I'm the usual suspect
a brand new landscape in a brand new world
no longer hidin' - no more dirt
I miss it already - I can’t get no sleep
I'm feelin' like a stranger, that's not my destiny
the reeds are swayin' slowly - the calm before the storm
I can sense the danger 'cause I will return and fight
I'll be back in town and I will clear that case
and their heads will roll 'cause I will find the evidence
I'll be back in town - no matter what they say
and if I die I'll have a smile on my face
I'll be back in town and I will clear that case
and their heads will roll 'cause I will find the evidence
I'll be back in town - no matter what they say
and if I die I'll have a smile on my face
I came, I saw, I conquered, but it's not the same
there's just my hometown blood running through my veins
so fuck the consequences, I have to go back
fuck the usual suspect
I'm a homeless man, but I will return
I have to fight for my own place in this cruel world
the last breath I take and the last words I say
a declaration of love to my city
you will see me again suckers!
(solo: Fabi)
same old landscape - same old sound
no longer hiding - they can't bring me down
home is where the heart is - my heart is buried here
my city relieves me of pain and tears and fear
now I'm back in town and I'm no longer lost
but they're hunting me - I have to act like a ghost
now I'm back in town - no matter what they say
and if I die I'll have a smile on my face
now I'm back in town and I'm no longer lost
but they're hunting me - I have to act like a ghost
now I'm back in town - no matter what they say
and if I die at least I'm back in my home town again
