Description
Sometimes everything seems to freeze - the air sticks, thoughts creak, even time crawls lazily, like an overheated cat in the sun. It seems like the world is rushing forward, cars are noisy, someone is rushing somewhere, but inside there is silence. The kind of silence in which you can hear your own heart beating in time with the emptiness.
And then, in this stillness, a fever suddenly awakens. Not even from passion - from a desperate desire to somehow burn away the stagnation, to eradicate the hopelessness. Kerosene for pain, fire for cold, sound for silence. Anything to simply feel that the blood is still flowing and not standing in the veins like stagnant water. And even if the future is unknown, the main thing is that it is not an eternal pause.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Time is passing by.
I'm standing still, far away from all of this mad life speeding down
Utopia.
It all runs fast, but nothing's changing.
I kiss the night and the world away. Pour kerosene on the flames of pain tonight.
All right.
I sit outside in the pouring fall, waiting for something to change it all tonight.
All right, goodbye Utopia.
Come around again, your neon eyes.
Leave the things we ever left behind.
We're on a silent road with empty hearts.
Maybe it will lead us somewhere.
I kiss the night and the world away. Pour kerosene on the flames of pain tonight.
All right.
I sit outside in the pouring fall, waiting for something to change it all tonight.
All right, goodbye Utopia.
All right, goodbye Utopia.
Nothing left to say.
I don't wanna stay.
I don't wanna stay.
Oh, crashing through the night.
Ordinary mind.
Ordinary mind.
Woo!
Riders on the storm. Killer on the run.
Yeah.
Nothing left to say.
Time is passing by.
I'm standing still.
Utopia
