lyrics

Du kannst mich öffnen, du wirst nichts finden,
ich bin eine Schachtel in einer Schachtel in einer Schachtel und immer so weiter.
Wie eine dieser russischen Puppen, nur ohne das Kernstück,
wie der Fahrstuhl ins Nichts und die unendliche Leiter.

Wenn du meine Haut berührst, ist sie kalt und rauh,
wenn du an mich denkst und die Augen schließt wird alles grau,
denn mein Herz ist kein Organ, es ist ein Stück Granit,
ich bin dein Mädchen aus Beton, hart wie Bakelit.
Alles wird grau.

Sag mir noch einmal deinen Namen und deine Lieblingsfarbe,
ich habe schon wieder vergessen, wer du bist.
Aber ich kenne dein Gesicht, ich habe es auf einem Geldschein gesehen,
laß uns gehen, ich rufe schnell den Fahrstuhl ins Nichts.
