Weathered and scarred by life
Bitter and surrounded by temptations
Like behind bars, always the same
Every one of my steps caused trouble
At night sunk in a nasty way
Almost drowned in a lake full of sh*t
Nobody took me along, I lacked maturity
But some stones just need to be polished
You came by, had your compass with you
You saw that this one stone is special
You took it with you and didn't sink it in the sea
Gave it a big warm place in your heart
Do you still know the place where I waited for you?
Side by side with the other stones I lay there
I was cold, without a home and alone
Before you came, I was just one of those stones
I was so dust-covered before you found me
You set me in motion, finally gave me fresh drive
I was cold, petrified and alone
Before you came, I was just one of those stones
You build me up, lie down next to me
I can talk about everything with you
Or just gesture without words
Back then I surely wouldn't have got that
You led me onto new paths
I felt life for the first time
I also know that not everybody gets that luck
I won't leave again, I'm only here because of you
You came by, had your compass with you
You saw that this one stone is special
You took it with you and didn't sink it in the sea
Gave it a big warm place in your heart
Do you still know the place where I waited for you?
Side by side with the other stones I lay there
I was cold, without a home and alone
Before you came I was just one of those stones
I was so dust-covered before you found me
You set me in motion, finally gave me fresh drive
I was cold, petrified and alone
Before you came I was just one of those stones
I was only dusty, worn-out and planless
Before you came, took me with you
Nobody needs to rescue me anymore
Do you still know the place where I waited for you?
Side by side with the other stones I lay there
I was cold, without a home and alone
Before you came, I was just one of those stones
I was so dust-covered before you found me
You set me in motion, finally gave me fresh drive
I was cold, petrified and alone
Before you came, I was just one of those stones
Do you still know the place where I waited for you?
