“Umarme mich” (“Hug me”)

My thoughts are weak
My eyes hurt
I've heard enough and seen enough today
That was a really hard day, no child’s play
It was a thousand percent
Too much of everything, I've got a bone-hard job
My mind is completely empty
My strength is at an end
I can't go on
Driven by ambition
I'd never have thought
There's an ice cold wind blowing
in the houses of power

Hug me
Lay my head in your lap
Soothe me
and don’t ever let me go
Give me some of your energy
I stand as a beggar here before you

Look at me
I've been very successful
I'm surrounded by symbols, symbols of power
I always wanted to get ahead
as long as I can remember
I always give it my best
I make an effort
But good fortune is determined
by outside graces
I know it all hangs by a silk thread

Hug me
Lay my head in your lap
Soothe me
and don’t ever let me go
Give me some of your energy
I stand as a beggar here before you

Hug me
Take me to another world
Soothe me
Say that you’ll stand by me
Give me some of your energy
I stand as a beggar here before you

Hug me
Soothe me
Give me some of your energy

Hug me
Lay my head in your lap
Soothe me
and don’t ever let me go
Give me some of your energy
I stand as a beggar here before you

Hug me
Take me to another world
Soothe me
Say that you’ll stand by me
Give me some of your energy
I stand as a beggar here before you

About this Song:
“Umarme mich” is from the ich+ich album. Although it was released as a single and did okay, this song never reached the Top 10 in Germany or Austria, but I've included it here because I like it. Also see the music video link above.
