Lyrics
[Intro - Clear and in a bitter mood]
The bittersweet embrace of reality...
[Verse 1]
*Between the anvil and the dream,*
*between duty and the space,*
*where thoughts strike sparks—*
*I learn to say ‘yes’ to this life.*
[Pre-Chorus]
*My hands grasp stone,*
*yet my spirit longs to be fire,*
*wants to burn what binds me,*
*until it finds itself in creation.*
[Chorus]
*What is Love!!!
*The hammer falls, the spark flies—*
*Reality, you bitter poison,*
*you become nectar when the spirit glows!*
*Dance the contradiction, dance it out,*
*the think tank, it smokes and trembles!*
*Greatness bursts forth from constraint—*
*he who says yes, he alone still lives!*
---
[Verse 2]
*Emotions show me,*
*whether wildness still dwells within me,*
*whether I breathe or creep,*
*whether I burn or yield.*
*Every pain a compass point,*
*every joy says: Here I am rich!*
*In the workshop of my soul*
*iron becomes gold—I choose!*
---
[Bridge - spoken, deep]
*They tell me: You must—*
*I say: I will!*
*They tell me: That is how it is—*
*I say: That is how I make it anew!*
[Yelling]
*The superman wears no chains,*
*he forges them into wings.*
---
[Chorus-varied]
*Embrace the stone of life!!!
*which you carry uphill for ever!*
*The think tank frees you from illusion—*
*realise that you shape yourself!*
---
[Outro - calm, almost tender]
*And when the last hammer falls silent,*
*and the night grows still,*
*then I know: All was well—*
*for I said Yes, with all my might.*
[Bridge - alternate and reflecting]
[These words want to be sung, shouted, whispered—depending on how alive you are today.]
*The same day returns forever—*
*and I? I beg: Just once more.*
*To carry this fire once more,*
*to say yes to fate once more.*
[Final chord, fading away]
[End]
