Rom English translation
von Joris

So many paths before me
But I don't want to go to Rome
I'm trapped in freedom
Doing everything as if I didn't know
Who I really am
Without direction and purpose
I've forgotten where to go

Blinded by the lights
I'm somehow blind beneath the city clouds
A lost child
Lost my footing
And buried my thoughts
I'm just another stone
In the high-rise facades
In the high-rise facades


And when the chaos inside me becomes quiet, no applause
Even if I wait, no one's waiting for it
When the horizon disappears, so familiar
I've been building on sand for far too long
That the sun still rises, I know that too

So many roads I've walked
And now I'm in Rome
Standing between stone walls
That quietly threaten me
It's an eternal struggle
But I won't give up
I'll build from stone ruins
A golden house
A golden house
I'll build from stone ruins
A golden house

And when the chaos inside me becomes quiet, no applause
Even if I wait, no one is waiting for it
When the horizon disappears, so familiar
I've been building on sand for far too long
Woh oh oh, woh oh oh oh
I've been building on sand for far too long
Woh oh oh, woh oh oh oh
I've been building on sand for far too long


And through asphalt
A small crack will soon appear
Come step on it and don't give up
Because when the sun breaks through the shards
The world is in light
And we stand up

Come on, don't give up
I won't give up, up, up
I won't give up, up, up
I won't give up, up, up
I won't give up, up, up

(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
