TONIGHT
OJO 2004

The future is behind me
no way back no way around it
all the bridges are burned
there is no hope
and all I have learned
is now forgotten past
and there is no chance for anything
to last or grow
tonight I have to go
yes tonight I really must leave

I wonder what it is like
life on the other side
I wonder what it is like
never to wake up

The future is behind me
I can't find anything that can
remind me
about life love joy and nature
all I can feel is complete failure
in my daily existence
so what is there really to live for
behind these closed doors
the only way out is not the midnight train
it is the final one I will take
and my ticket is paid
I am for sure leaving tonight
it is decided in my tired mind
the final solution
will solve everything

The future is behind me
no way out no way at all
every secret dream
that I dreamt is now long gone
I can't remember anything no more
so how can I continue
with living my life in this strange way
when there is nothing
that drags me in the right direction
tonight I have to go
yes tonight I really have to leave
my heart tells me so

The future is behind me
at least so I feel
since I can't find any escape way
out of this little prison cell
it is a true living hell
yes tonight I really have to go
or maybe I should sleep on it for a while
because it is good
to be alive
