שניצלים [Shnitzelim] [English translation]

Don't take it to heart, don't sit and dig

No walls are unbreakable

Let it-let it out, let it burn

No walls are unbreakable

Some days are good, some days are idle

In between, some days grind you into dust

Something's not right with me nowadays, thoughts going into overdrive

Yeah, even though I'm a man, I'm not always strong

I'm all confused nowadays, don't know what to ask

I'm taking everything out of proportion nowadays

All my plans turned into excuses

My ears are on mute, my heart's closed for repairs

I ain't cool nowadays, I know, I'm sorry

Going back and forth from the couch to the fridge

Starting something, then starting something else

Life is like parking on Rothschild Blvd.1, it's easy to get pulled along

I was told: "It's not so bad, just sleep and it'll pass."

But my head screams back, "Alright? What the hell's gonna be alright?"

And in this demanding race, against the treacherous time

I forget who I am, quite a lot, quite fast

But...

Give me a microphone, a stage, an audience, and that's it

Give me a night with the guys, with the arak and the wine

Man, give me some schnitzels2 on a Friday

Let me close it all up, take a moment for myself

Give me-give me-give me a microphone, a stage, an audience, and that's it

Give me a night with the guys, with the arak and the wine

Let me drive up North, put my song on

With my windows down, and a girl next to me

That's all...

I turned my TV on not long ago

I saw my childhood heroes selling their souls there

I saw a godless God

And all kinds of people hating whoever thinks differently than them

I saw how the Captain was steering for the iceberg

Commercials with kids only in the right color

I saw changing suits who lie and sweet-talk

Blaming each other for the stench

I saw how money makes you crave, a self-destructive world

On every channel, at every hour, almost every night is pointless

And it turns my stomach inside out

Suddenly I felt an excess in helplessness

I got lost nowadays, don't know how to get back

Raised the pen, let it burn

Cast aside anything sad for just a moment

And even if I won't find the way, fuck it! Doesn't matter

As long as you...

Give me a microphone, a stage, an audience, and that's it

Give me a night with the guys, with the arak and the wine

Man, give me some schnitzels on a Friday

Let me close it all up, take a moment for myself

Give me-give me-give me a microphone, a stage, an audience, and that's it

Give me a night with the guys, with the arak and the wine

Let me drive up North, put my song on

With my windows down, and a girl next to me

That's all...

Don't take it to heart, don't sit and dig

No walls are unbreakable

Let it out, let it burn

No walls are unbreakable
