YOU WERE WRONG

YOU LET [bad word] INVADE YOU AND YOU LET ME GO

LOVE WANTS TO BE BOTH GENTLE AND [bad word] 

YOU WERE FOOL, YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN

AND WOULD YOU WEAR BERRIES IN YOUR HAIR

FOR THIS BATALLION OF LOVERS?

AND WOULD YOU SHARE THIS TABLE

SET AMONG THE STONES OF YOUR BROTHERS?

I THOUGHT I HAD NO WISH TO PROTECT YOU, TO CONQUER YOU

BUT NOW I HAVE TURNED TO YOU

SO LEAVE DEATH [bad word] TO ME

YOU WILL SEE, I WILL LEAVE NO SCAR ON YOU

FOR YOU WERE MEANT TO BE WITH ME, HERE

FOR WE ARE BUILT, TRAINED, CONDITIONED TO DISAPPEAR

WE SHALL STAY IN THE SHADOWS, IN THE MEADOWS AFIRE

AS THIEVES FOR HIRE

AND WE SHALL REMAIN INVISIBLE, FOR WE TRAVEL LIGHT

FOR WE DO [bad word] TOWARD THE LIGHT

FOR WE DANCE IF WE CAN WITH OUR EYES CLOSED

ALL ALONG THE BORDERS, ALL ALONG THE ROAD

AND WE SHALL MAKE OUR MOVEMENTS LIGHTER

LIKE THE BOYS ON THE WIRE

TO REGAIN THE JOY AND FIERCENESS

OF THE ESSENTIEL MAN

COOL OUT HERE, BESIDE ME

COOL OUT IN THE SANDS OF SPAIN

COOL OUT AND WASH YOURSELF IN MILK AGAIN

AND NOW YOU SHALL MOAN AND YOU SHALL WEEP

AND YOU SHALL LOATHE THE OTHER CHEEK

MY FRIEND YOU CAN’T PRETEND TO KNOW LIFE IN EVERY BREATH

TO WOUND MY PRIDE, TO ENVY DEATH

YOU [bad word] UP WITH THIS CURE AND REST ASSURED

YOUR LONGINGS NEVER SEEMED PURE

AND EACH TIME I [bad word] 

EACH TIME I WILL BE ANOTHER

SINNER, SAINT, YOUR ENEMY BROTHER

I SHALL MAKE YOU SAY PLEASE

I SHALL HAVE YOU ON YOUR KNEES

WIR HABEN UNSERE WELT VERLOREN

WAS ÜBRIG BLEIBT SCHLEPPEN WIR JETZT IN KOFFERN

DURCH HALB EUROPA

AN ALLE WELT UNS AUSGESCHENKT!

VOM LEBEN UNBESIEGT

WAS UNS EINT IST DER VERZICHT!

YOU WERE MEANT TO BE WITH ME, HERE

FOR WE ARE BUILT, TRAINED, CONDITIONED TO DISAPPEAR

WE SHALL STAY IN THE SHADOWS, IN THE MEADOWS AFIRE

AS THIEVES FOR HIRE

AND WE SHALL REMAIN INVISIBLE, FOR WE TRAVEL LIGHT

FOR WE DO [bad word] TOWARD THE LIGHT

AND WE DANCE IF WE CAN WITH OUR EYES CLOSED

ALL ALONG THE BORDERS, ALL ALONG THE ROAD

AND WE SHALL MAKE OUR MOVEMENTS LIGHTER

LIKE THE BOYS ON THE WIRE

WE SHALL MAKE OUR MOVEMENTS LIGHTER
