Gürtel am Arm [English translation]

Kevin is not stupid but also not smart

He likes to hang out home for hours

With his two dogs on the couch

but when it gets dark, he goes out

Without money, without perspective

Until there's a cell phone lying around, opportunity makes a thief

No thinking, simply pocketing

He doesn't give a shit about their lifes, he wants to save his

Gambling and then rocking to Kottbusser Tor

To this place where he lost his hope

The phone and the brown stuff change owners

Yes, Kevin is a junkie

And every time when it begins

When the fear burns and this shaking steers his hand

Then he doesn't care anymore

because he's addicted and he injects himself, happily

Huh, Kevin wears a belt around his arm

He aims, pulls the trigger and it becomes nicely warm

When he presses dreams to his veins

one of the Christiane F's kids and he escapes

Huh, Kevin wears a belt around his arm

He aims, pulls the trigger and it becomes nicely warm

Only a shadow of himself, in the candle light

because he doesn't feel anymore, his heart is broken

The needle tip pierces through the skin

Suddenly it's not so loud anymore

because slowly the poison takes its course

And all of the lights go out

He falls and falls

To a better world

Nothing is how it seems anymore

and he cries

Every tear is a word that he can't say

This load leaves his breast, he begins to breathe

And everything is so light, as if he flew

For a short eternity he feels the joy

And every time when it begins

When the fear burns and this shaking steers his hand

Then he doesn't care anymore

because he's addicted and he injects himself, happily

Huh, Kevin wears a belt around his arm

He aims, pulls the trigger and it becomes nicely warm

When he presses dreams to his veins

one of the Christiane F's kids and he escapes

Huh, Kevin wears a belt around his arm

He aims, pulls the trigger and it becomes nicely warm

Only a shadow of himself, in the candle light

because he doesn't feel anymore, his heart is broken

The cold sweat sticks in the face

The eyes stare lifeless into emptiness

His stomach turns around and the skin itches

Until he pours out this food out of the can

He stretches out his hands towards the sky

Because this pain eats him from the inside

He wants to scream, but he can't

He wants to scream, because he suffers, because he knows that he's sick

And every time when it begins

When the fear burns and this shaking steers his hand

Then he doesn't care anymore

because he's addicted and he injects himself, happily

Huh, Kevin wears a belt around his arm

He aims, pulls the trigger and it becomes nicely warm

When he presses dreams to his veins

one of the Christiane F's kids and he escapes

Huh, Kevin wears a belt around his arm

He aims, pulls the trigger and it becomes nicely warm

Only a shadow of himself, in the candle light

because he doesn't feel anymore, his heart is broken

Huh, Kevin wears a belt around his arm

He aims, pulls the trigger and it becomes nicely warm

When he presses dreams to his veins

one of the Christiane F's kids and he escapes

Huh, Kevin wears a belt around his arm

He aims, pulls the trigger and it becomes nicely warm

Only a shadow of himself, in the candle light

because he doesn't feel anymore, his heart is broken

Kevin wears a belt around his arm
