We’re just looking sideways, we don’t know where we are going.
We’ll forget everything once we’ve set off.
The wheels are rattling underneath, there’s a lamplight in the distance,
time has long since stopped, or it hasn’t even started yet.
Its monotonous rhythm snatches
your blood-pumping heart, your destiny from the moonlight.
To the tune of the late dawn it’s exposing another side of it
until your life turns into a star.
The track’s glowing, the iron’s shedding sparks
during the long journey, heavy with struggle.
If it brakes, you’re terrified, afraid that now it’s your turn
before you’ve arrived at your foreordained destination.
Existence appraised by distance, every mile carves a wrinkle into you.
Now you can see how far you’ve come and how much you’re worth.
No more doubts, they have long since been hiding behind you.
Until life turns into a star, it’ll keep on carrying you!
