Heute möchte ich euch einen weiteren Song vorstellen und werde ihn diesmal (trotz englischer Übersetzung) als erstes in die Kategorie "deutsch" legen, weil ich hier bereits tolle lyrische Beiträge gelesen habe.
Ich teste noch aus und weiß noch nicht, wo ich hier am ehesten zuhause bin, aber habe schon nette Leute hier kennenlernen dürfen, deshalb werde ich sicher nicht komplett falsch sein.
Der Song handelt von dem Gefühl des "hier gefangen seins" und dem Traum einfach abzuhauen. Aber auch von dem Bewusstsein, dass dies nur eine weitere Flucht wäre, an deren Ende man sich wieder selbst gegenüberstehen würde.

Today I would like to introduce you to another song and will put it this time (despite English translation) first in the category "German", because I have read here already great lyrical contributions.
I am still testing and I do not know yet where I am most likely to be at home, but have already met nice people here, so I am sure I will not be completely wrong.
The song is about the feeling of being "trapped here" and the dream of simply escaping. But also aware that this would only be another "wrong escape" and that you would end up facing yourself again
Lyric translation:
Would you stay awake for me?
The walls around me breathe hastily and crush me
You say it is your own fault if you are not happy
There is no reason to want to please anyone here
And no reason for this, but I feel like I'm captured
There is a packed suitcase under the bed
Tell me if you would come with me when I pick you up tonight
Tell me if you would stay awake for me
I've thought about it so often
I know your job, the duties and the things around it
Against an unfathomable dream that bursts and dies again
And in the end I stand in front of myself again
And just want to get away from there because there is nothing that still holds me
Refrain:
Tell me if you would stay awake for me
Tell me if you would stay awake for me
I never did it anyway
Maybe it will work tonight
My life here is nothing more than an entry in a diary
Which one does not want to read because everything in it calls failure
And you still say it would all be acceptable
that's what makes it so bad and I feel like I'm being charged again
In my mind there is a plan that has been established for a very long time
Tell me you do not feel like all the time here passes useless
I have to go where you really live
Or is it already too late?
I know the shack, the family and all that keeps me here
Only for an ill-conceived dream because it just torments me
And in the end I stand in front of myself again
With fear of my courage and fear of this world
refrain
One day I'm gone
One day I'm gone
One day I am
One day I'm gone
refrain
Thanks for watching ❤️
