Sleeping On The Back Burner

I sing without a cause to you And I fear, I fear the fear is never coming back It's been keeping me awake for so long Just for the sake of each song that came directly from wherever I've cried without a single drop It was soaked, it's soaked by the so narrow-minded boy I saw him in despair with a nose In the air and I suppose that it ruined all his passion So I set one step after another to arrive where I don't wanna go And only recognise their face when I meet neighbours in the staircase - And nowhere else but here I prayed the last time when I was twelve years old But now I call, I call a god, a higher script or whatever To please release me from these concrete hands And these dumb demands that no one ever had but me And so I set one step after another to arrive where I don't wanna go And this shows me, neither I nor you know me Still I set one step after another to arrive where I don't wanna be That's when her head turned further and she spoke of the back burner And so I set one step after another to arrive where I don't wanna go - That old fear of being idle keeps me from being my own idol Still I set one step after another to arrive where I don't wanna be I tried to kiss and to turn her, but she slept on the back burner And that's where I don't wanna be
