die brücke- CONTAGION

Why do I find myself afraid
A sudden darkness fills the air
I know I should not be afraid
the smell of smoke is everywhere

the blasphemers and the obscene
feed this blaze with kerosene
smoldering in fervent hearts
it burns white-hot when shooting starts

in a world on fire
it's better to burn than drown
we go ring-around-the-rosie now,
and soon we'll all fall down
You know with every revolution
we take it a bit too far
and we're dancing round in circles
because we don't know where we are

Why do I find myself afraid
A sudden darkness fills the air
I know I should not be afraid
the smell of smoke is everywhere

A stream of taunt gut-wrenching scenes
ripped from the air and magazines
electric cannibals and cops
A high-speed chase that never stops

Thanks Rob Holman and my great buddy Jimmy aka JLY1974

Great song. I couldn't find the lyrics so I wrote to them. I got this reply from Rob Holman himself, the band's lead singer. Thanks for the kind words! We are glad you like the songs. Thanks so much for the support. The words are: Why do I find myself afraid A sudden darkness fills the air I know I should not be afraid the smell of smoke is everywhere the blasphemers and the obscene feed this blaze with kerosene smoldering in fervent hearts it burns white-hot when shooting starts
