Einkehr
Der Weg einer Freiheit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seit Tagen atme ich nichts als Staub
Die rostig alte Sonne wandert
Wie auf einem dünnen Seil entlang am Horizont
Sticht in mein Auge und kehrt in mich ein

Tief innen wohnt die Wahrheit
Der Anfang, der Weg, das Ende
Das Licht bahnt sich den
Weg durch meine Adern ich kann es fühlen
Wie tausend Sonnen strahlen
Suchen den Weg zu dir
Wann lerne ich im Takt der Welt zu atmen

Schwarz die Lungen, das All in mir
Wann lerne ich im Takt der Welt zu atmen

Das All in mir die Haut verbrennt
Die Hülle stirbt das Innerste wird frei





Tief innen wohnt die Wahrheit
Der Anfang, der Weg, das Ende
