Away
I want to go
I want to go
I don’t want to stay
Nameless, friendless, and alone
Like an attack, robbery, or even assault
Impossible to stay
My heart is on fire
The grieving of the night
With boundaries between Bismark during my night life
I want to go

There is no sufficient reason for going

The nights so cold
The nights so old 
I must stay
Too far and frightful
With my heart burning on fire
The road from here seems like a bum
The light screeched 
I was wrong for trying to go
The world will stay strange to me
I am strong rich and faithful
