Versprochen hat man uns so viel
We have been promised so much
Klar erschien so lang das ziel
Clearly, the goal seemed so long
Doch die wahrheit war viel mehr
But the truth was much more
Eine trügerische mär
A deceptive march
War die sicht auch sooft getrübt
Was the view also so often clouded
Versperrte uns den klaren blick
Blocked us the clear view
Hat man dich auch sooft belogen
Have you been lied to so often?
Und um deinen traum betrogen
And to cheat on your dream
Hast du auch genug davon
Do you have enough of it?
Warte nicht auf das was kommt
Don't wait for what's to come
Lass uns jetzt nach vorne schauen
Let's look ahead now
Und unsere eigene welt aufbauen
And build our own world
Nimm mich fest an deine hand
Take me tightly to your hand
Führe mich in das gelobte land
Lead me to the promised land
Zeig mir deine schöne welt
Show me your beautiful world
Die in mir den tag erhellt
The day illuminates in me
Nimm mich fest an deine hand
Take me tightly to your hand
Ich will nicht länger nur zusehen
I no longer just want to watch
Und am rande des weges stehen
And stand on the edge of the way
Traue nicht mehr den schönen worten
Don't trust the beautiful words anymore
Die ich hörte an so vielen orten
I heard at so many places
Wünsche wollen wir erhalten
We want to receive wishes
Träume wollen wir gestalten
We want to create dreams
Sehnen uns nach den kleinen siegen
Long for the little victories
Wollen nicht länger nur am boden liegen
Don't want to lie just on the ground anymore
Auf den strassen und in den gassen
On the streets and in the alleys
Sehen wir die menschenmassen
Let's see the crowds
Suchen nach dem wahren glück
Searching for true happiness
Streben nach einem kleinen stück
Striving for a small piece
