Keine Zeit zu warten
Keine Zeit zu stehen
Überall Maschinen
Die sich weiterdrehen

Keine Zeit zu zweifeln
Do musst funktionieren
Keine Zeit zu halten
Ohne zu verlieren

...Einatmen
...Ausatmen

Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Auch wenn do weiterläufst
Do kommst nicht ans Ziel
Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel

Keine Zeit für Träume
Es muss weiter gehen
Keine Zeit zu fragen
Oder zu verstehen

Keine Zeit für Liebe
Denn do kämpfst allein
Niemand sieht dich bluten
Niemand hört dich schreien

...Einatmen
...Ausatmen

Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Auch wenn do weiterläufst
Do kommst nicht ans Ziel
Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel

Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Auch wenn do weiterläufst
Do kommst nicht ans Ziel
Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel

Das Leben rinnt dir durch die Finger wie Sand
Die Zeit vergeht wie I'm Flug
Do läufst I'm Kreis und do verlierst den Verstand
Doch do bekommst nie genug

...Einatmen
...Ausatmen

Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Auch wenn do weiterläufst
Do kommst nicht ans Ziel
Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel

Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Auch wenn do weiterläufst
Do kommst nicht ans Ziel
Wach auf!
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel
Do bist mitten I'm Spiel

Wach auf!
Wach auf!
Wach auf!
