Because we only pay for infinity with blood, sweat and tears
Because you can only pay for infinity with blood, sweat and tears
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
Only the sun charges what the shadow robs me of
Because the devil is again shamelessly exploiting the sleep that I need
My heart is like an engine without limits
And what drives me are the inner voices
I have to win at all costs
But my soul only longs for silence
Because I see the faces, but forget the names
I shape my destiny every goddamn day
And with a little blood, sweat and tears I leave you more
Than just dirt and bones in a coffin
But I've been awake with one eye for far too long
But 24-hour days suck energy
But for this one moment of peace I dive in
And say goodnight to the cruel world
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
See you again when the sun burns away all my bad dreams
And the ghosts on my chest give me space to breathe again
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
I fold my hands and whisper to the moon
"God, give me strength and protect my son"
Because he gives me the reason I need to know
That this self-destruction is worth it
Used to stress, but it makes you older
Heart of gold, but getting colder
And if it's going to be good, then do it yourself
The clock's hands just spin faster
The days are getting longer because you're always just filing
One eye laughs, the other cries
Each of us would like to live better
But we have to realize that unfortunately we don't know "no"
There is still so much to do, one life is not enough
I'm just coming to terms with the world
But hear death as it calls
If you just fetch it, if you can't figure it out, I'll disappear for a moment
And say goodnight to the cruel world
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
See you again when the sun burns away all my bad dreams
And the ghosts on my chest give me space to breathe again
See you again when the sun burns away all my bad dreams
And the ghosts on my chest give me space to breathe again
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
Goodnight cruel world, goodnight
