Lyrics & Translation

[English]

wCOOPER (VOICEOVER): Previously on "Last Generation."

Russell's been missing almost two months.

COOPER: I only wrote with Russell.

So I'll write with you.

It's worth a shot.

DETECTIVE BENDEL (ON PHONE): This is Detective Bendel.

We have found something.

[HEART BEATING]

[SIGHS]

[KNOCKING]

They're ready for us.

You doing OK?

I'm trying.

[SIGHS]

[EMOTIONAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Thank you all for coming today.

[SNIFFLES] Sorry, I'm not very good at this stuff.

It's been a tough few weeks since they found him.

But I think this is exactly how Russell would want his memorial

to be like--

a bunch of friends sharing their music.

Cooper and Emir are going to kick us off.

H-- hi.

S-- so we wrote this song for today.

So-- go, I guess.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

(SINGING) You never cried, even when your heart was aching

and when you lied.

I couldn't tell if you were faking.

I think you like the fact that no one ever

saw inside your head.

If you fear that you're alone, you

should know it's never true.

Behind the mask you wear I can see a glimpse of you.

And all the walls you've built are thinner than you knew.

I am right here.

Just let me break through.

I'd like to ask so many things I'll never know.

I bet you'd say the way to move ahead is to let go.

Still, I'll never stop thinking of the words

I should have said.

If you feel that you're alone, you

should know it's never true.

Behind that mask you wear I can see a glimpse of you.

And all the walls you've built are thinner than you knew.

I am right here.

Just let me break through.

Let me break through.

Let me break through.

[APPLAUSE]

Thank you.

[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]

Hey, that was amazing.

You two really have something.

Ah, he's jealous.

Cooper this is Chris.

Hi.

He works for an ad agency in town.

Like you, he insists on having a real job.

I'm very sorry about Russell.

I didn't know him well, but always liked the guy.

Thank you.

I wonder how you'd feel about me adding your track to my set

list?

Are you serious?

Yeah.

Oh my god, yeah.

I would be honored.

I'm sure Emir would too.

Yeah, I hear you've been more than just writing together.

Phil has a really big mouth.

He also said you're leaving Berlin soon.

Yeah, I wanted to be here for this.

But there's really nothing keeping me now.

Oh, it's a shame.

It feels like we hardly gotten to know each other.

Cheers.

There's a lot that we still don't know--

the four hour time gap?

They said he left the club to 2:30

but his estimated time of death was 6:30.

His wallet was missing.

His nose was broken.

Maybe it happened in the fall from the bridge.

His skull was cracked too, which could

have been the cause of death.

That's what the police report said.

So what-- you think someone killed him and then threw him

in the river?

Jesus, Phil--

He won't listen to reason.

Guys, guys-- I'm just saying.

There are still some unanswered questions.

Like the guy, whoever it was he was seeing,

still hasn't come forward.

Why would he?

We-- the box.

We still don't know anything about that.

All right, I can't listen to this anymore.

He's right, Phil.

You've got to let it go.

Hey.

Hey-- you're leaving?

It's winding down.

Hey-- he needs his space sometimes.

I think he's upset that you're leaving.

This was always the plan.

They're taking me back at the law firm-- what?

When you were performing up there, you looked happy.

When you said the words law firm,

you looked like you were about to puke.

Now you're just being mean.

No-- no, I'm being right.

Phil.

I want you to stay.

Emir wants you to stay even though he'll never admit it.

It's been a hard day for both of us.

Do you know what Russell would want us to do right now?

Hm?

Go dancing.

[LAUGHS]

You know what?

It makes as much sense as anything else.

Cheers.

[TURKISH MUSIC PLAYING]

[SPEAKING TURKISH].

[SPEAKING TURKISH].

You should have been there today.

You knew Russell.

You met him a bunch of times.

[SPEAKING TURKISH].

[SPEAKING TURKISH].

[SPEAKING TURKISH].

Well you've always been the responsible one.

Danke.

Hey, have you seen the doctor yet?

No, and I don't want to talk about it.

All right.

Look, I called because I need advice.

I've been keeping a secret for a while now, and if I tell

it could make a lot of things worse.

But if I don't, I'm not sure I can go on living with myself.

Well it sounds to me like you've already decided.

I was afraid you'd say that.

[HOUSE MUSIC PLAYING]

MUSIC: If you feel that you're alone,

you should know it's never true.

Behind the mask you wear I can see a glimpse of you.

And all the walls you've built are thinner than you knew.

I am right here.

Just let me break though.

(LAUGHING) Never mind.

PHIL: Wait, wait-- OK, good.

Good.

What?

I gave Sebastian the track.

I thought you'd be so excited.

No, I need to tell you something.

I think I know what happened to Russell.
