Lyrics:

Kinder und Sterne küssen und verlieren sich
Greifen leise meine Hand und führen mich
Die Traumgötter brachten mich in eine Landschaft
Schmetterlinge flatterten durch meine Seele
In der Mitternacht

The paradox of our minds
Too much to believe, too much to deny
You fool me again to quiet my pride
But I’m a human, I come with knives
I never promised you an open heart or charity
I never wanted to abuse your imagination
I come with knives
I come with knives
And agony
To love you

The monotony
And the rising tide
Is under my skin, is crawling inside
Adrenalin to rewire my mind
I’m only human, I come with knives
I never promised you an open heart or charity
I never wanted to abuse your imagination
I come with knives
I come with knives
And agony
I come with knives
I come with knives
To love you
With agony

Kinder und Sterne küssen und verlieren sich
Greifen leise meine Hand und führen mich
Die Traumgötter brachten mich in eine Landschaft
Schmetterlinge flatterten durch meine Seele
In der Mitternacht

[mizage]

The moment you are German and hearing these whispers thinking you´ve finally gone mad x´D

[AnimeLionessMika]

"children and stars are kissing and loosing each other, are taking quietly my hand and guiding me, the gods of dreams brought me into a landscape, / butterflies flew through my soul/ /in midnight/
just in case someone wants to know what the female voice is saying :)

[SongShixuan]

When I first heard this song I fell in love with this music. When I first saw his face, I fell in love with the man. When I first heard him speaking in interviews I fell in love with his soul. A beautiful creature. A wonderful artist.

[tatjana]

I usually never mention the person or a show that "brought" me here, but this time I must! Thank you HTGAWM for opening up my eyes when it comes to this wonderful artist called IAMX. I'm in love with his music and his unique personality. <3

[MissToxicc]

Drinking game:
Have a IAMX Music video marathon and take a shot everytime someone mentions How To Get Away With Murder

[Memily]

iamx brought me here. then i saw everyone was talking about HTGAWM and i went to check it out and HTGAWM brought me here again.
good show btw

[confectioninfection]

everything chris touches turns to gold.

[Tigerino]

take notes kids, THAT is how you transition into a chorus. Perfection. God this human is a genius. I love.

[ach.]

The idea of combinig English and German together is just brilliant. <3 Another genius IAMX concept.

[MrSophii]

please come further north in the uk! please please please please

[jjmeowy]

IAMX never disappoints. Very excited to hear the rest of the album.

[noelsmuse]

Until a month ago, I had no idea who IAMX even was. Every album I have listened to since, I cannot get enough of because every single word sung speaks to my soul. It speaks to the crazy within myself yet understands my anger -- strokes it, coddles it. It shakes up my soul, makes me feel alive in this death.

[thehouse]

How to get away with murder did not bring me here. 

[MundMoriginal]

Besides classical music, rarely have I heard such beautiful implementation of my native language in modern songs. Thanks for using German in your songs like this!

[derOLF]

Wunderschöner Gesang am Anfang, das macht das Lied aus! Einfach herausragend. Danke!

[nickzumpol]

The other day a car alarm went off and the german lyrics started playing in my head. I love how his music reminds me that the world and its people are so fucked up, yet if we keep looking, there's hope... maybe.

[joeywall]

How could someone thumbs down this? Man, he has such a good, powerful screaming voice.

[DigitalIndigena]

So in love with this man and his music. Thanks for providing me with such amazing tunes to pass the lonely hours with, Mr. Corner.

[MrSophii]

i am so happy to have listened to iamx for as long as i have. they've evolved so much. i don't think there's ever been a time when i've got bored of their music. this is yet another fantastic song from them! :D

[ABCDEFGHI]

Wow. Chris' music makes my body flinch with every song, every word, every rhythm and every video. I wish I knew how to stop but he just enchants me too much! Another amazing song.
