Titanium


You shout it out,
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud not saying much
I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up


I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away

Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium


Cut me down
But it's you who have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium

Stone-hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone-hard as bulletproof glass

You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium


Not Over You



Take me away – I look at my wristwatch
Just as always, a long silence finds me
The approaching train passes me by
I live with the belief that the next one will come when this one passes
If I opened my eyes for half the day, I am walking alone like yesterday
That’s not a big deal – I’m scared of meeting you
As I’m walking alone through the memories
Oh (Oh) Are you hurting as much as me? Can’t you look back at me first?
I’m standing opposite of you but I’m not over you
The shadow walking ahead of me beckons me
That narrow street corner takes me there (I follow it)
I still cleary see the two people standing there
Anyone can see that they’re so beautiful – they look pretty happy
If I opened my eyes for half the day, I am walking alone like yesterday
That’s not a big deal – I’m scared of meeting you
As I’m walking alone through the memories
If only I can turn back time
I wouldn’t have divided our memories or walked the other way
I’m not over you
Oh, you’re not by my side but
Oh but you’re still in me

Oh, the skies are clear again today
Oh, but rain falls in my eyes, oh
The memories are so sad
They remind me that it’s not now but it’s the past
