12305 (Te Nacht) - Lyrics by Einstuerzende Neubauten


Lyrics
Dies ist meine 12305te Nacht
Die ersten paar tausend,die kannst du vergessen,ich hab es auch getan
Diese hier ist auch schon fast vorbei
Was bleibt ist Nikotin und gelbe Finger
Viele vorher die habe ich verpulvertund kurz- und kleingehacktin vielen verausgabt, verbraucht, gefluechtetverfluechtigt, den Drachen gejagt
In einer Handvoll war ich nahe dranmeist am Ende, nah am Ende,gegen Ende, gen morgenvoruebergehend selbst ertraenkt
Was bleibt ist Alkohol und dumpfe Traeume
Mache gingen endlos und ich aus und loszu warten wo doch kein Bus faehrtalle vergingen, bis jetzt, bis 12305
In machen warst du vorhandenaber ich war nicht ganz da
In vielen hab' ich dich im Schlaf gesucht
In vielen hab' ich dich schlafend gesucht
Was bleibt?
Von hier bis Mars war naeherals von mir bis zu die
Ich schien aus Antimaterie zu sein -gefaehrlich!
Es war meine 12305te Nacht
In der du vor mir erschienst
Du liesst deine Augen leuchtenwohl nicht von ungefaehr
Du warst auf derselben Suche undaus demselben Grundzog's dich wohl auch zu mir
Insgeheim warst du mein Spiegelbild
Ich zog dich und zu mir
Ich war in dir - zu seh'n; und umgekehrt
Weck die Liebe nichtbevor es ihr nicht selbst gefaellt
Bevor es ihr nicht selbst gefaellt

This is my 12305th nightthe first few thousandyou might as well forgetjust as I have alsothis one here is almost finished toowhat remains is nicotine and yellow fingersmany before I've frittered to powderand diced and minced into bitsin many expended, exhausted, escapedextinguished, chasing the dragonin a handful I got very closetowards the end, close to the end,right at the end, towards morning,in its passing drownedwhat remains is alcohol and numbed dreamssome were endless and I set out and offto wait where nonetheless no bus goesall passed by till now, till 12305in some you were presentbut I was not entirely therein many I sought you in my sleepin many I sought you sleepingwhat remains?from here to mars was closerthan from me to you
I seemed to be made of anti-matter -fairly dangerous!it was my 12305th nightin which you appearedyou made your eyes glow
I'm sure with some fair reasonyou were seeking the same thing andfor the same reasonyou too were then drawn to meyou were my mirror image secretly
I drew you up and towards meinside you - I saw myself; and inversely
Do not stir up lovebefore it is itself willingbefore it is itself willing)
