Der Atem ist zu sehen, es ist kalt. Vorsichtig rutsche ich nach Hause. Kopf frei, nicht wirklich Lust auf den nächsten Tag, aber er wird schnell vorbei gehen. Und im Kopf dieses Lied... Aus Platzgründen nur in der gekürzten Fassung...


Red Right Hand

(...)

He'll wrap you in his arms,
tell you that you've been a good boy
He'll rekindle all the dreams
it took you a lifetime to destroy
He'll reach deep into the hole,
heal your shrinking soul
Hey buddy, you know you're
never ever coming back
He's a god, he's a man,
he's a ghost, he's a guru
They're whispering his name
through this disappearing land
But hidden in his coat
is a red right hand...

(...)

You'll see him in your nightmares,
you'll see him in your dreams
He'll appear out of nowhere but
he ain't what he seems
You'll see him in your head,
on the TV screen
And hey buddy, I'm warning
you to turn it off
He's a ghost, he's a god,
he's a man, he's a guru
You're one microscopic cog
in his catastrophic plan
Designed and directed by
his red right hand...

by Nick Cave

Schönes Lied. Leise summe ich die Melodie vor mich hin...
