The World The World falls around us And shrapnel Shrapnel rips through the air And we stand Cause there is no hiding But love Love will shelter us there
And we kiss As if nothing has happened And the bombs Fall far to the side And the bullets Dont seem so frightening And nothings so striking As the slowing of time
And the Night The Night falls around us Breaking away To the dawns coming light As the smoke The smoke settles around us Still we stand To the defeat of both sides
Dann sind wir helden Nur diesen tag
And we are then Heroes For only this day
Credit for the last two lines goes to Apocalyptica and Till Lindemann (Rammstein) from the German version of David Bowie's "Heroes". The last line is the literal translation of the line preceeding.
