Man
Die Toten Hosen
You ask me what my name is
Cause you dont know who I am
Ill you all about myself
Then youll understand
You wish that we were strangers
But Ive got other plans
Im your lover and your best friend, your biggest enemy
Ill stab you in the back while you are shaking hands with me
Im nothing that you wanted but Im everything you need
Im good and Im evil
Im love and Im hate
Sometimes Im the real thing
Sometimes Im a fake
Im honestly a liar
Im your history, your fate
Im the hunter and the hunted, Im always on the run
Im cowardice and courage, anxiety and fun
Im always out there searching but I never know what for
Im the winner and Im 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
Im law and Im religion, I never can grow old
Ive crowned myself my own king and Mother Earths my throne
Im longing for the sunlight, Im heading for the moon
Im turning in a circle but I think Im moving on
I live here and I die here within a single breath
Im body and Im spirit, Im saving and condemned
Now you know my name
Now you know who I am
I am you, you are me
My name is Man
