Hello hello Mr. fighter
Look! there we go again
Go-getters don´t forsake!

They never wallow in their fate



More than a thousand miles until the end

We´re never gonna know what lies ahead
We only got today

to learn from our yesterday!



I feel alive bringing into play

My whole life going all the way

I´m still alive and I turn away

from broken mirrors

I feel alive when I dare to say

I wanna fight!

Won´t fix by running

Say yay yay yay!

Come on and raise your battle cry!

You are the one who never dies!

Hurray! Sing it lalalala!

Go on singing lalalala!

You keep on climbing over hills!

Right now you´re following your dreams!

Hurray! Sing it lalalala! Hurray!



Say yay yay yay!

Hurray!



Hello Hello Mr. Danger

No need to be afraid!

I know by heart my shades

I got the light between my breaks 


More than a thousand

Wounds upon my hands
Of every time I fought them face to face!

We go through our mistakes

To find the way to go back straight



I feel alive bringing into play

My whole life going all the way

I´m still alive and I turn away

From broken mirrors

I feel alive when I dare to say

I wanna fight!

Won´t fix by running!

No won´t fix by running!



Come on and raise your battle cry!

You are the one who never dies!

Hurray! Sing it lalalala!

Go on singing lalalala!

You keep on climbing over hills!

Right now you´re following your dreams!

Hurray! Sing it lalalala! Hurray!
