Ideal [de] - Monotonie lyrics

Seasons change and they change you

Round you go life, and then there you are

Life is hard, you know the truth

Old age creeps up, robs you of your youth

Through sheer luck we survive

I'm surprised that we're even alive

The sum of all you are

Is all in your mind

There is no fast forward

And there is no rewind

Death will end the game

Now it's time to begin

Another sacred soul

Starting over again

Back and forth you pace your cage

Is all the world a stage?

Bite your tail, climb the walls

Rat race got you by the balls?

Be true to your own views

Put yourself in others' shoes

Don't you worry very much

Nothing matters, there's no end

My head's hollow, no heart of gold

Lost my morals, my conscience is on hold

May the good outshine the bad

Remember all the good times that we had

[Lyrics: brecht]
