Down on me Lyrics by MAYBEPOP

German verboten

2012

I look the operation staff over their shoulders
The tube slides down my throat
The clumsy doctor’s hands are shaking
The angel says that nothing can go wrong
During the coma – says the angel - I am free
To go wherever I please
Just to be safer, says the angel, I can go
To where the light shines brightly
They’re looking down on me – you’re looking down on them
There’s more to this matter than meets the eye
They’re looking down on you – I’m looking down on them
I’m not so sure if I like this state of mind
And if the sick bed starts to bother me
I will return, go home for a while
She changed my room around and round and anyway
She must hate all my old junk piles
After the coma lasted half a year I thought
Her way of life has been shaken
But now my son, he sells my keyboard
By and by, the boundaries have been taken
It is amazing how they, when you cannot hear
They speak and they brag about you
Oh, I don’t care – that is the beauty, when you die
But I’ll get my revenge soon
They’re looking down on me – you’re looking down on them
There’s more to this matter than meets the eye
They’re looking down on you – I’m looking down on them
I’m not so sure if I like this state of mind
I asked the angel right there from the very start
Will he forever be at my side?
He said, that all depends on how long this thing there
Can still write my life signs
I didn’t think of anything, but slowly I believe
That they need the beds
The doctor indicated to my lovely wife
That very soon I’ll be dead
I know it well, there’s not much time left for me now
I know I have to decide:
Will I now go through the door into the light
Or keep suffering in quiet?
They’re looking down on me – you’re looking down on them
There’s more to my struggle than meets the eye
They’re looking down on you – I’m looking down on them
But all is well, if just the angel’s on my side
They’re looking down on you – I’m looking down on them
There’s more to his struggle than meets the eye
They’re looking down on me – you’re looking down on them
But all is well, if just the angel’s on my side
