Five minutes

Текст песни

[Chorus] For five minutes I was eight again, running through the streets with lightning in my veins. No fear of life, no maps, no plans — just the world in my two hands. For five minutes I forgot to be grown, and every rule I learned was overthrown. Just sunshine on my skin instead of pain — for five minutes… I was eight again. [Verse 1] I woke up older than I wanted, time weighed heavy on my bones. Deadlines stacked up in the kitchen, every dream turned into loans. But then the summer hit my senses — same warm air as years ago. And for a second I remembered someone I used to know. [Pre-Chorus] Not a stranger, not a lover — just the kid I used to be. [Chorus] For five minutes I was eight again, running through the streets with lightning in my veins. No fear of life, no maps, no plans — just the world in my two hands. For five minutes I forgot to be grown, and every rule I learned was overthrown. Just sunshine on my skin instead of pain — for five minutes… I was eight again. [Verse 2] A bus passed by, and in a heartbeat I heard laughter from the past. Plastic wheels against the pavement, time was moving way too fast. I saw my bike, my broken sneakers, I smelled grass and cheap perfume — and suddenly the whole street sounded like my old living room. [Pre-Chorus] Not a memory, not a story — but a feeling I can’t keep. [Chorus] For five minutes I was eight again, running through the streets with lightning in my veins. No fear of life, no maps, no plans — just the world in my two hands. For five minutes I forgot to be grown, and every rule I learned was overthrown. Just sunshine on my skin instead of pain — for five minutes… I was eight again. [Bridge – sanft, ehrlich] Maybe growing up is learning how to lose and still pretend. But I’ll take those tiny moments where the years don’t matter then. [Final Chorus – größer, intensiver] Give me five minutes to be eight again, one more shot at magic in my veins. No deadlines, no ghosts, no shame — just the world without a name. Let the sun replace the weight again, let me breathe before the fight begins. Just five minutes without breaking from within — just five minutes… to be eight again. [Outro – ruhig] And then I’ll be grown again.
