Abreißen English translation
von Revolverheld

Dark outside and my alarm clock screaming at me way too loudly
Late again
Through the rain into the gray of safety concrete
Up and away
I walk in the middle and never stand on the cliff
Cause the best is yet to come
Live for the weekends when I'll just crash
Falling deeper and deeper into the black hole

But there is this voice in my head
That knocks again and again from the inside

I have to tear down, rebuild, break down, today
Paint the sky blue again (people)
Everything is allowed, I must get out of this gray
Tear down, rebuild, break up, today

Tear down, rebuild, break up, today


Everything according to plan, I'm always ready to go, you can rely on me
Change is hard, that's why I stay there
I'll gladly take my place again
All you have to do is ask, I never liked to argue
And the door slams in my face
I'm happy to keep waiting and just shine
I never hoped for a thank you

I have to tear down, rebuild, break down, today
Paint the sky blue again (people)
Everything is allowed, I must get out of this gray
Tear down, rebuild, break up, today

Tear down, rebuild, break up, today

All cleared, all destroyed
All rubble and ashes, as it should be
Everything wrong, the account empty
I wave from afar without return

But there is this voice in my head
That keeps knocking from inside
There's this voice in my head
That keeps dripping from the ceiling

I have to tear down, rebuild, break down, today
Paint the sky blue again (people)
Everything is allowed, I must get out of this gray
Tear down, rebuild, break up, today

Tear down, rebuild, break up, mic drop
