lyrics

It was twenty first of august
twenty first of august
ninety eigthty seven,
summer melting faces
Under the shine of sun lucky baby’s born
Primitive but pure-preordained to
mediocrity

25 years gone by, tell me what you see?
be honest, are you proud?
are you proud? how could you be
paved me a way, told me not to be afraid
Now that I´m standing on the edge ,
I wonder what you’d say

I been to hell and back

I‘ve been everywhere you wanted me to go
And all I found was broken dreams and empty goals
Now I´m standing on the edge, ¨
on the edge

This time I am rising from the ash
new energy, new life, new hands
voice loud enough to take a stand
Don’t ever show me ways again
Now I am the one who‘s in command
of this ship - look -at the name
The queen of brand new age
The queen of brand new age

Now I am the one who‘s in command of the ship so
So grab a seat old man, and calm fucking down

I been to hell and back

I‘ve been everywhere you wanted me to go
And all I found was broken dreams and empty goals
