Man

Die Toten Hosen

You ask me what my name is

´cause you don´t know who I am

I´ll you all about myself

Then you´ll understand

You wish that we were strangers

But I´ve got other plans

I´m your lover and your best friend, your biggest enemy

I´ll stab you in the back while you are shaking hands with me

I´m nothing that you wanted but I´m everything you need

I´m good and I´m evil

I´m love and I´m hate

Sometimes I´m the real thing

Sometimes I´m a fake

I´m honestly a liar

I´m your history, your fate

I´m the hunter and the hunted, IíŸm always on the run

I´m cowardice and courage, anxiety and fun

I´m always out there searching but I never know what for

I´m the winner and I´m the loser in the same sick war

Now you know my name

Now you know who I am

I am you, you are me

My name is Man

I talk about my feelings with a mask upon my face

Declare myself as healthy, intelligent and sane

Control ma live so carefully I slowly suffocate

My hands are full of blood but my heart is full of gold

I´m law and I´m religion, I never can grow old

I´ve crowned myself my own king and Mother Earth´s my throne

I´m longing for the sunlight, I´m heading for the moon

I´m turning in a circle but I think I´m moving on

I live here and I die here within a single breath

I´m body and I´m spirit, I´m saving and condemned

Now you know my name

Now you know who I am

I am you, you are me

My name is Man
