Die Toten Hosen am ende

Only when it's over do we see that there are no goals,
And that so much of what we do is a waste of time.
It's only when the end comes that we realize the mistakes,
/>That every person does over and over again over time.
What do you want to keep except your memory?
It will be the very last thing you can give.
Only when we When we see the end, we begin to understand
What life is actually about for us.
When the end lies before us and we are alone,
We recognize for ourselves the happiness that we have otherwise never see.
The rain spreads like a net over the whole country,
Knocks on our window and reminds us
That there is no life without pain, without the search for meaning ,
No chance to stop anything, no chance to turn anything back.
Only when it's over do we see that there are no goals,
And that most of what we do is a waste of time ...
