lyrics

Hello my friend I would like to know:
Are you afraid of the world’s end?
Do you feel alone?

I see you abandoned your values
But you said: “No, you’re wrong.
I just wanted to know where they are from.”

You said: “Maybe that is your magic spell.”
But you should fear the one.
I’m the machinist of hell

“Take it easy righteous man!
I know it’s for the cash machine”
Come on, stop making jokes of me
You have insulted my believes
I know there’s always truth in fiction
And you should fear the one
But moreover you should fear his holy son

And you said: “Well, maybe that is your magic spell.”
But you don’t look like someone
Who wants to go to hell
Where the gods wait for you
Where the gods wait for you

All drinks that you had last night
Couldn’t help against the anger
And all the songs that you wrote tonight
Couldn’t make it better

But I swear that I’ve got the answer
But I swear that I’ve got the answer
But I swear that I’ve got the answer
But I swear that I’ve got the answer

You said: „Maybe that is your magic spell.”
But you should fear the one.
I’m the machinist of hell
