Platinum Songtext
von Momus

If I told the truth I′d like to live my life again
Walk around my youth in somebody else's skin
One life′s not enough, all that we contain
Nothing's gonna save us now
Let's go back in time and see what bridges we can burn
Kick over our tracks on the eternal return
Throw away the facts and things we never learn
Nothing′s gonna save us now
Take me to the place where my deceased are relived
Give me answers to the question, "What would have happened if"
Beyond the third dimension, beyond the fourth and fifth
In a parallel universe
Hey DJ, you′ve got it all wrong
No more golden grapes, no more platinum songs
Put these frozen moments in the fridge where they belong
Nothing's gonna save us now
I don′t fear it, life's not sad and death is not the end
Looks like you got typecast by a double-crossing friend
Looks like we were here before and we′ll be back again
In a parallel universe


No regrets, at least not yet, is all that we can say
Sandwiched ourselves in life's identity parade
Gone the crimes that you committed, gone the things you made
To a parallel universe
Hey DJ, you′ve got it all wrong
No more golden grapes, no more platinum songs
Put these master tapes back in the safe where they belong
We've got to live the Hallelujah now
So let's go
Walk the city streets with me and cross a thousand lives
Count the possibilities that shine in people′s eyes
Ask how many dreams we kill to keep our dreams alive
We′ve got to live the Hallelujah now
Thank you for the memory, they cursed you later me
My Christians are at work from two to fifteen
Missed the sixth verse and the rest is history
Nothing's gonna save us now
Hey DJ, you′ve got it all wrong
No more greatest hits, no more platinum songs
Put these little shits back in the ground where they belong
Nothing's gonna save us now
If I told the truth I′d like to live my life again
Walk around my youth in somebody else's skin
One life′s not enough, all that we contain
We've got to live the Hallelujah now
So let's go
