There in the distance the sunset is burning
Your words are running through my head
And this town is floating in my vision
Let me fall asleep, barbiturate
Give me a day to rest
Give me some money, give me a reason to stay here
Can you see, I'm like a bare wire
Tomorrow's Monday
Which means I'll fall asleep alone
Wrapped in the walls of communal appartments
There in the distance the sunset is burning
Your words are running through my head
And this town is floating in my vision
Let me fall asleep, barbiturate
Surrounded by walls covered in drawings
Surrounded by paneled houses
Under close-watch of the systems
Under the weight of our debts
We hope for a better life
It's night already, not a single soul around, only floors above me
The station, a tram is going farther down the ringroad
I want it to take me away from here and bring me home
There in the distance the sunset is burning
Your words are running through my head
And this town is floating in my vision
Let me fall asleep, barbiturate
Give me a day to rest
Give me some money, give me a promise
That I will never have to go through all of this again
Tomorrow's Monday
(One cannot live the way I do)
Which means I'll fall asleep alone
(Taking pills to sleep)
Tomorrow is a new day
(Two skeletons in your closet)
It has no space for two
(Meeting every new day and starting everything all over again, all over again, all over again...)
There in the distance the sunset is burning
Your words are running through my head
And this town is floating in my vision
Let me fall asleep, barbiturate
