At night
I don't answer the door anymore. They knock every day at 4:00. I don't call for a carriage, I walk all the way to you The walls are thin and spies are at the market, they all wear the same necklace and know where I live. We meet at the edge of the desert, nobody is here at this time, we can talk undisturbed and there are no prying eyes. They usually come at night to get the people. and afterwards another house is vacant. A few still spout perseverance slogans, but nobody listens to them anymore anyway. There are guards everywhere, everything is monitored 24 hours a day. The borders are closed, for years already, all you have left is inner emigation. I've known you since we were kids, I know I can trust you, too. We've been planning to get out of here together for a year now. You got us some weapons, Now we just need a ship. You say you can't take it anymore. and you're very hopeful that we'll make it. As I say goodbye, I once again look deep into your eyes I think about you all the way home, I don't think I'll get much sleep. They usually come at night to get the people. and afterwards another house is vacant. A few still spout perseverance slogans, but nobody listens to them anymore anyway. There are guards everywhere, everything is monitored 24 hours a day. Nevertheless it happened again tonight, downtown, something exploded. And the temple says: "There is no danger to the public" and yet somehow everyone knows about it. I went to you again today, the streets were completely empty. Your name wasn't next to the door, someone else stood there. He gave me a letter from you that said you are sorry. And besides, you wish me luck and thank me for the nice time. I know you had to betray me, but that's no good to you now. You didn't know I've been working for the temple for years. And we usually come at night to get the people. and afterwards another house is vacant. A few still spout perseverance slogans, but nobody listens to them anymore anyway. There are guards everywhere, everything is monitored 24 hours a day. The borders are closed for years already and tomorrow morning I will visit your execution. based on Farin Urlaub Racing Team - Die perfekte Diktatur, because that song shook me. Hard.
