We know everything everywhere
But far too little about ourselves
And even that little bit gets shared
What was once real is cold now
Today synthetic, yesterday art
Those who don't notice borders often go too far
We have thousands of friends
Yet we've never seen them
Because the flashy glare is way too bright
We have thousands of dreams
Yet we lose real life
It crumbles to dust of zeros and ones
I need something I can touch
Then I can let go again
I don't wanna adapt anymore
I wanna hold my life in my own hands again
Because we're drowning more and more
In this cold sea of lights
When everything's always possible everywhere
The moment's worth nothing anymore
Wrong direction step by step
Until the next wave breaks
No time to catch our breath again
We drift click by click
Away from what's actually real
Do we swim against or with the current?
We have thousands of dreams
Yet we lose real life
We get lost in smog and fog
I need something I can touch
Then I can let go again
I don't wanna adapt anymore
I wanna hold my life in my own hands again
Because we're drowning more and more
In this cold sea of lights
When everything's always possible everywhere
The moment's worth nothing anymore
And how often have I thought?
How often have we missed each other
Because our world blinks too loudly?
You can hear and see much clearer
Feel and understand way better
Come on, let's chat a little again
And lift our heads up again
I need something I can touch
Then I can let go again
I don't wanna adapt anymore
I wanna hold my life in my own hands again
Because we're drowning more and more
In this cold sea of lights
When everything's always possible everywhere
The moment's worth nothing anymore
