I've acquired a taste for money
I've acquired a taste of speed
And I don't think my life is giving me everything I need
The artificial light
The artificial sun
Burning in my eyes makes me feel like I'm the only one alive
The past is very hard
The future is very weak
The present is carried on my back like a ton of despair
If only I didn't know that someday I'm going to die
I wouldn't need an excuse
I wouldn't need to cope
I wouldn't need to quit
I wouldn't need a friend
In a world without end
In a world without end, amen
I've fallen into my soul
Into the bottomless pit
Deeper and deeper I fall
And to let myself go insane
Wouldn't be very hard at all
Crawling through my conscience
Is like crawling through a sewer
Deeper and deeper I go
And you know I die when I get too old
If only I didn't know that someday I'm going to die
I wouldn't need an excuse
I wouldn't need to cope
I wouldn't need to quit
I wouldn't need a friend
In a world without end
In a world without end, amen
