So Calm
Xavier Naidoo · Alles Kann Besser Werden [2009]
Which year are we in
Which year are we in
Dann bin ich wieder aufgewacht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgewacht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgetaucht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgetaucht
Can't you hear the alarm
Can't you hear the alarm
Because you see me so calm
But I can hear the alarm
It has been a long, long fight
To bring back the dark to the light
How will we go on, I'm walking along
How will we go on, turn the radio on
How will we go on, press "on" and then run
How will we go on
Dann bin ich wieder aufgewacht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgewacht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgetaucht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgetaucht
How will we go on, I'm walking along
How will we go on, turn the radio on
How will we go on, press "on" and then run
How will we go on
Dann bin ich wieder aufgewacht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgetaucht
Can't you hear the alarm
Can't you hear the alarm
Because you see me so calm
But I can hear the alarm
Can't you hear the alarm
Can't you hear the alarm
Because you see me so calm
But I can hear the alarm
So we're born again
Bur far apart long distance
But I'm on my way
Ready to disappear in an instance
So this is the time and place
Same procedure, same weapons, same face
Same problem, same planet, same race#
Ring the alarm, the next generation is coming
Ring the alarm, the X generation is coming
Ring the alarm, the best generations are coming
Ring the alarm, regenration is coming, is coming
Ring the alarm, for the next generation is coming
Ring the alarm, the X generation is coming
