a safe position, a back against the wall
a simple shrug to shrug the questions off
there is no action
there is no reaction
curb the deed, avert the consequence
so if no one moves and no one speaks a word
we could act ok
we must stand still
we must honor the stalemate
and we will slumber
have we ever been awake?
have we done a thing?
when summer's over will we dream of spring?
saftey could be disabling
a crippled history as an absentee
a safe position
turn off the phone
hang the blankets over the windows
'cause if no one's home, then there's no one responsible
there's no response for dissapointed eyes
to see through you
they won't see you anymore
we must stand still
we must honor this stalemate
until we find out
have we ever been present?
are we too past-tense?
when summer's over
will we face autumn?
safety is disabling
a crippled history
absentee
you're safe with me
curb the deed, avert the season
absentee
you're safe with me
when summer's over will you dream of your crippled history?
[und sonst? keine ahnung, kein plan.]
