As I once again look into a test picture
I fight through my trash
I run out of the house like so often before
An accumulation of false friends
A job that didn't fit me
Ever since, I reflect on
How much I so long endured
Tonight I will proclaim
I'll leave this city
Everything that I have will remain here
Things will begin again somewhere else
I run like a convict on the escape
I never stop
It is my last chance and it isn't very great
But there is no other choice
I'm happy about my new life
About everything that lies before me
I have just one single wish:
Never again to stand idly
Tonight I will proclaim
I'll leave this city
Everything that I have will remain here
Things will begin again somewhere else
Someone yells at me in my face
"It's 5:30 and now we'll make you"
On the way home, everything revolves around me
And the Test Picture keeps rustling
Never will I go from here
I'll never come out of this city
Every evening I talk of fleeing
And lie to myself from the beginning
