It's just about dawn And the colors have gone To a concrete gunshot grey Strobe lights flash And blind our eyes Walkin' into a cheap cafè It's about skin Needles and pens And getting yourself a taste I'm looking at her Through a Stoli blur And thinkin' "Aw, what a waste" Oh, oh, I hope you know the way back home Bring me down before I fall I've danced this high graffiti wall So long it feels I've been up here forever Touch my face and blow away This fever-whisper when you say "It's you and me against the world together" That money machine That river of green Has seen its better days Honey leg girls Kick and twirl 'Cause there's always somebody who pays The poetry of poverty Won't give up without a fight To tell you the truth All I'm trying to do Is get through another night Oh, oh, I want you more than ever right now Bring me down before I fall I've danced this high graffiti wall So long it feels I've been up here forever Touch my face and blow away This fever-whisper when you say "It's you and me against the world together" If you're looking for an exit sign Or just a door don't waste your time They built it wide, they built it tall Graffiti wall's impossible to climb Oh, oh, Get me out of this Berlin Bring me down before I fall I've danced this high graffiti wall So long it feels I've been up here forever Touch my face and blow away This fever-whisper when you say "It's you and me against the world together"
