The Shouter Songtext
von Hoelderlin

You were a shouter and you were shouting out
You were a shouter, ooh boy, you seemed so proud
You were the clown, we were just the fools around
You had no crown but you were the king in town
You were a fighter, fighting for fighting fights
Fighting just to win seemed to be alright
In the night the streets were full of fear and fright
Long were these nights and also long were the knives


Now I know that you were so depressed sometimes
You couldn′t go through that curtain you left behind
You were a dreamer, thought all your dreams came true
You were a schemer, what did you have to lose?
And so you dreamt of somebody helping you
But you were the shouter, who could have helped you?

Now I know that you were so depressed sometimes
You couldn't go through that curtain you left behind
Now I know that you were so depressed sometimes
You couldn′t go through that curtain you left behind
Now I know that you were so depressed sometimes
You couldn't go through that curtain you left behind
Now I know that you were so depressed sometimes
You couldn't go through that curtain you left behind
Now I know that you were so depressed sometimes
You couldn′t go through that curtain you left behind
