A little song from our upcoming Album "Sgeht'n?" about staying alive purely to spite everyone who pissed you off today. No warm hugs or cheesy motivational quotes—just absolute stubbornness, a lot of anger, and the ultimate refusal to let the world win.

The Bridge
ㅤ
You stand up there, where the city falls silent
Where the black river disappears below
Your hands buried deep inside your jacket
Like you've got nothing left to lose
The lights go rushing by, but none of them see you
The world keeps turning, only you remain still
And I stand below, between rust and concrete
Watching your shadow on the bridge above
ㅤ
I don't know your name
Don't know why you're here tonight
But I can see how this fucked-up world
Is driving you to the edge
ㅤ
Take one step back from that bridge
You don't owe them shit
Don't let this city get away with it
Breaking you, then starting fresh tomorrow
When everything inside you screams: "I've had enough, I'm done"
Then stay standing, if only out of spite, for one more moment
Not because life is offering you anything right now
But because your ending would be their fucking victory
And they don't deserve that
ㅤ
A car honks, like you're just in the way
Like your drama is nothing but an obstacle
A window opens, someone starts to shout
But nobody asks what brought you here
They want heroes, as long as nobody falls
And clean stories for a dirty world
They say, pull yourself together, it'll all be fine
But none of them have to stand up here
ㅤ
I don't know your wounds
Don't know what brought you to this point
But I can see how this fucked-up world
Is driving you to the edge
ㅤ
Take one step back from that bridge
Take your life back
Don't let this city get away with it
Breaking you, then starting fresh tomorrow
When everything inside you screams: "I've had enough, I'm done"
Then stay standing, if only out of spite, for one more moment
Not because life is offering you anything right now
But because your ending would be their fucking victory
And they don't deserve that
ㅤ
Maybe there isn't even a reason
Maybe tomorrow won't be any better
Maybe everything will stay hard for a while
And every bit of hope will sound so empty
But you don't owe this world a pretty picture
No quiet ending, no final scene
Spit in their fucking faces
Come down from here alive
Unforgiven, wounded, and a thousand times angrier
ㅤ
Take one step back from that bridge
Take your fucking life back
Don't let this city get away with it
Breaking you, then starting fresh tomorrow
And if you can't see a reason to stay
Then stay out of spite, until you can fight again
And don't count on anyone promising you anything
But your ending would be their victory
And they don't get that victory
ㅤ
You stand up there
Morning breaks
You turn around
That's all I need
