I ride it Yeah FROM YOUTH TO DEATH I ride it FROM YOUTH TO DEATH I'll ride it
[Translation:]
The intersection is crowded as far as the eye can see the cold1 town is still far away Just pursuing a retreating figure which vanishes in the blink of an eye When I shield my eyes from the midsummer sun the wind tatters the shadows of the roadside trees All of a sudden, without even seeing someone there I was frightened by my own shadow
I say to myself that nothing will likely change as of tomorrow To just invariably move forth
I ride it Yeah FROM YOUTH TO DEATH I ride it FROM YOUTH TO DEATH I'll ride it
Like a bird in a perfectly clear sky when I see a group of buildings I suddenly must sneak away like this in neither frustration nor despair But I've surrendered to that gentleness that exists to nestle me A weak light illuminates the whereabouts of raised (railroad) tracks, reaching for its radiation
Tomorrow morning I'll ride that bus, flying past this town So I can live my dream
I ride it Yeah FROM YOUTH TO DEATH I ride it FROM YOUTH TO DEATH I'll ride it
