100x [English translation]
They said that everything is just a journey and you only get a break
In the brief moments when you’re at home
Old streets, holy world, neighbors slowly die away
New kids smoke the same shit, hidden in their hands
The swing at the playground swings the same way it swung back then
On the night when someone jumped onto the train tracks
Suburban idyll for parents, hell for kids
Every evening after the news, absolutely nothing
Always wanted out, wanted into the city
The Rolling Stone made small, rolled into one sheet
In the subway with our feet lazily on the seats
Every one of us thinks the same thing: “There’s nobody who understands me
Nobody who’s like me” – young fists clenched
Polish fireworks light up the forest
Today is not our day, you said
This wasn’t our year, we thought
But in retrospect it was super good, wonderful
One song played the whole day, a hundred times
And it never bothered us
Always the same paths, the streets in my neighborhood
Whistling songs, walking over the same eternally old stones
Where time never goes by and the parties are disappointing
Always sitting there, flicking cigarettes where the train tracks cross
With seven people in the Ford, sipping imported Faxe (beer)
Someone is pumping bass through his gangster-box
Russian style, sitting in a circle, spitting on the cobblestone
Eyes with heavy edges from the terrible weed from the dealers
Because the only thing that stays the same is that nothing ever changes
Strolling by the shops again
Wasting your youth, everything repeats itself in a circle
(Hook 2x)
Back in the day at our bus stop
Alone with my buddies, dirty and cold
What happened to “best friends forever?”
Are the same people impaired today?
We were here, the wall proves it
We used to know each other by heart
We have the same place in our heads
Back then, our heads were still filled with Gorbatschow Vodka
Behind our hangout where we hung around in the summer nights
Fingers pulled the labels off and off the neck of the Becks
When the last cig like a one-eyed wolf faded out
And our lives became blurred with our favorite songs
That we sang by day and shouted by night
We were weak, we turned the volume up and borrowed its power
VW Polo covered with ashes, the CD completely scratched
Seventh heaven, seventh hell, all in one night
We were kings with only Schnaps and Chio Chips
What our eyes saw was bigger than the video clips
And the first kisses are still the most honest
Every mixtape that we made was our lives’ meaning
