Lyrics: 

What say we burn
Burn the land behind us
Push off, set sail
For infinite seas of possibilities

Never to return
There's nothing to return to now
This new-found freedom
Plagues me like the dark
The dark that holds my heart

And now I fear we've gone too far
To find out who we are
Instead I found a mess
We'll call it meaningless

There's nothing left
Nothing left to do but
Just smile and kiss and fade and fall asleep
Laughing nervously

And if you could
Would you live these years again
It's sickeningly absurd
How all these hours were spent
We never meant to waste them

And now I fear we've gone too far
To find out who we are
Instead I found a mess
We'll call it meaningless

Too young to follow thru
On anything I say I'll do for you
And that is just my way

If you leave I know we will fall through
I'm contagious
If you fall I know I will fall too
We're always changing

love this song. beautiful.

love this song.
beautiful.

this song

These are likely some of the most powerful lyrics out there. Not only by Stabilo, but in general. I wonder what the story behind it is ???
