Music #25

This is my favourite german song at the moment. I translated it for you :)
Meine Soldaten - Maxim (My Soldiers - Maxim)     


I am building a wall and blowing up all bridges.
Systematically suppressing all thoughts about you.
Burn all photos and censor the songs.
No matter what, I mustn't lose control ever again.

Everything that moves, I keep it under close surveillance.
Immediately eliminate suspect elements.
Only a sign of weakness is enough, a trimble of fingers
I need cool blood, it does me no good to remember you.
It does me no good to remember you.

And everytime my heart calls for you,
And the chaos erupts inside of me
I send my soldiers
To break down the resistance.
Everytime my heart calls for you,
And it burns in the streets inside of me,
I order my army to do everything,
To put it to silence again.
It's gagged, broke,
It's locked away.
And finally it obays, my poor heart.

A good soldier doesn't ask questions.
He walks circles in the park until the legs fail
Stars with dust like a yes and your name
A soldier forgets everything,
In case of emergency even his own name.

But I only need one betrayer, one leaky spot
A tiny stone for a huge wave
A spark in the tinder and everything is in flames again.
The whole facade collapses like a house of cards.
Collapses like a house of cards.

And everytime my heart calls for you,
And the chaos erupts inside of me
I send my soldiers
To break down the resistance.
Everytime my heart calls for you,
And it burns in the streets inside of me,
I order my army to do everything,
To put it to silence again.
And everytime my heart calls for you,
And the chaos erupts inside of me
I send my soldiers
To put it to silence again.
It's gagged, broke,
It's locked away.
And finally it obays, my poor heart.
