Lyrics & Translation
I knock them out of line
Between us, the desert
I will drive through it
Between us, the jungle
I load my gun
Between us, the sea
I just drink it all empty
Between us, the doubts
I clear them all away
Between us, the walls
I've got a hard fist
Between us, the forests
I have a chainsaw
And I find my ways
I run for you
I burn for you
I won't shy away from trouble
There's more between us
I run for you
I hang myself up for you
I want your heart to beat only for me
There's more between us
There's more
Between us, the mountains
I'll blow them all up
Between us, the stars
I'll make them hang lower
Between us, the future
I'll make it secure for you
Between us, the dramas
I'm looking for a new poet
Between us, the parents
I'll delight them
Between us, the career
I fill all the gaps
Between us, the stones
I set them rolling
And then I go all in
I run for you
I burn for you
I won't shy away from trouble
There's more between us
I run for you
I hang myself up for you
I want your heart to beat only for me
There's more between us
There's more
Between us, the bouncer
I'll let myself in
Between us, the tables
I break them short and small
Between us, the guy there
He has to leave now
Between us, the moment
I'll turn it around right
Between us, the ice
I'll break through it
Between us, the words
I stop talking
Between us, three steps
I reach you
And pull you close to me
Until nothing, nothing, nothing remains
Between us, stands
And I finally feel how your heart beats
I run for you
I burn for you
I won't shy away from trouble
There's more between us
I run for you
I hang myself up for you
I want your heart to beat only for me
There's more between us
