Berlin

Waiting for the take off

Trying my make amends

With something I could never reconcile

I’m thinking back to countless conversations

How do I forgive in time?

Morning noon and night

We could talk about it till our mouths were dry

I always knew this moment would surely arrive

And while the cuts are so deep

I know that feeding on anger

Is no way to survive

But sometimes I just want to tear it all down

I took to the streets where they tried to rub me out

But Anna’s eyes so kind and true

Well they seem to shine right through

This heaviness I’m feeling

Checkpoint Charlie

Nothing to write home about

And a sign that says Wannsee 20k away

Sends a cold shiver through my spine

Stepping on squares of gold

The animal is sleeping underground

While stories from the Berghain

Are casually thrown around

Sometimes I just want to tear it all down

I took to the streets where they tried to rub me out

But Anna’s eyes so kind and true

Well they seem to shine right through

This heaviness I’m feeling

Yeah sometimes I just want to break down and cry

Cos’ no God of mine would have let so many die

So forgive me if I let my anger fly

But I’m in no mood to apologise

For this heaviness I’m feeling

This helplessness I’m feeling

EY44

Looks like we’re leaving on time

You could never numb the pain

But I think I’d like to see you again
