In den ersten Lebensjahren eines Kindes bringen ihm die Eltern Gehen und Sprechen bei,
in den späteren verlangen sie dann, dass es stillsitzt und den Mund hält.
(Johann Nestroy)

only one place I know where I'd want to be now
but this place is impossible to go
so I stay here chopping wood into pieces
thinking about the hypotheses

what if I was a piece of wood
it would be good but I am not
so I stay here chopping wood into pieces
thinking about the hypotheses

breaking wood to continue my dreadful life
feel the shivers shooting in my eyes
I stay here chopping wood into pieces
thinking about the hypotheses

just to burn the stuff away
to enlighten the night and heat up the day
I stay here chopping wood into pieces
thinking about the hypotheses

only one place I know where I'd want to be now
I imagine it being the destination of the smoke
I stay here chopping off my arm
throwing it into the fire and make it warm

my arm shall burn and turn into smoke
going to where I want to go
this part of me is finally released
in my imagination, at least
