lyrics

You accidentally killed your dog,
left him in the car with the windows up.
You didn't expect the sun to be as hot.
And when you came back, his heart had stopped.
You didn't dare to tell no one.
When they asked, you said: "You know how these dogs like to run.
And one day he was gone."

But you're marked like Cain by the wrinkles on your forehead,
saying "I'm to blame and that won't change until I'm dead".
So sad, so sad.

You accidentally hit your child.
You didn't sleep all night, now its morning and your childs going wild about brushing his teeth.
So you hit him in the face
and both of you start to weep.
You didn't dare to tell no one.
He didn't either, he was two years old -
way to young, way to young.

But you're marked like Cain by the wrinkles on your forehead,
saying "I'm to blame and that won't change until I'm dead".

But, you know, guilt was a manmade idea
to control human beings by extortion and fear.
There's nothing holy about it,
it won't get you anywhere.
If you're still feeling bad,
try saying "Sorry", my dear.
And no one else is blaming you, really!
We all came here to fail.
So get your ass out of the puddle, baby,
and your head off the track and back on your trail!

PAULA PAULA Berlin, Germany

Montag, 18:30, Berlin Neukölln. Paula reitet ihren Rauhhaardackel im Jagdgalopp zum Späti. Drinnen schmettern Songs über Klimawandelfatigue, die Liebe in sozialer Distanz und selbst geschweißte, mentale Käfige aus zerschossenen Boxen. Paula muss los. Eine nächste Schleife im Lebenslauf hat sich angekündigt und sie kann es kaum erwarten sich von ihr mit Schmackes aus der Bahn werfen zu lassen. ... more
