There was a road

There was a road where the lights disappeared,
The facts in the mirrors didn't recognize you.
All promises remained just empty words,
And tomorrow always ran further and further away.

Shaking hands, unsent messages,
Suppressed crying, unfinished business with you.
The night lied again: it will be easier now,
But the morning slapped him in the face: this is nothingness that does.

**Pre-Chorus**
Yet deep inside you there was a spark burning,
A voice that can never be completely suppressed.

Deep can be very, very bad,
But it's not the last word, just a place that slipped away.
You stand up and continue the life,
That you always wanted to live inside.

**Verse 2**
Have you seen how much it took from you,
Friends, family, your future from your face.
Your time has flowed away like wine on the floor,
And you thought there was nothing to bring back from this.

But suddenly you realized: your heart is still beating,
Your faith doesn't have to be filled with the shadow.
You are not the same as what you missed,
You are not your fault, just someone who tried.

**Pre-Chorus 2**
And in the silence your heart slowly answered,
This is not the life you ever wanted to live with you.

**Chorus**
This moment is instructive in itself,
There is a path out of the dark, no matter how confusing.
No matter how much drugs ruin your life,
You can get out of it if you finally believe.

The deep can be very, very bad,
But it's not the last word, just a place that has slipped away.
You get up and continue the life,
That inside you always wanted to live.

**Bridge**
I don't promise that the morning will be easy,
The past will still pull you back with silence.
But every step you take towards the light,
Will be a new sentence in what you tell yourself.

You can't erase what happened to you,
But you can paint your faith in tomorrow in different colors.
And one day, looking back, you'll understand what it said,
This moment that burned you right now:

**Breakdown / Chorus excerpt**
That no matter how deep the dark poison pulls you,
It can't take your whole self away from you forever.
There's something inside you that's pure and free,
That takes you by the hand and leads you through the walls.

The deep can be very, very bad,
But it's not the last stop, just a falling balcony.
You let go and enter that life,
That you've always kept inside the light'.

**Outro**
Today you still stand trembling, but already on your own side,
And with every breath you write a new time on the walls.
This moment that hurts, but is still free,
Because it shows: you can get up – and you will stay longer.
