Strive for perfection and you'll be wasting your time best strive for progress and you'll do just fine set your sights lower let that be your goal more stress-free so let it be peace in your soul chasing what seems to be never-ending schemes and success only possible in distant dreams goals that there's no chance of achieving lower your sight don't give up the fight that you believe in Strive for perfection and you'll be wasting your time best strive for progress and you'll do just fine set your sights lower let that be your goal more stress free so let it be peace in your soul running around in circles never getting anywhere everyone else getting ahead life not seeming fair it always seems others are living their dreams contented few words said if you look in their head they are just as demented Strive for perfection and you'll be wasting your time best strive for progress and you'll do just fine set your sights lower let that be your goal more stress-free so let it be peace in your soul

Opfer der Zeit

By Roland Köhler


Es handelt sich hierbei um eine Art deutsche Version der Songs "Victims" und "Time" von Culture Club. Dieser Text entstand auf der Rückfahrt von Schladming im Oktober 2012, wo mir in einem kleinen Tal der Tod begegnet war. Oben war es schön warm, in diesem Tal schlagartig eiskalt und frostig und ich war überzeugt den Tod zu spüren. Dort kam mir die Melodie zu "Victims" in den Sinn und schrie verlangend nach einem deutschen Text. In der darauffolgenden Nacht kam eine Freundin von mir nach einem Herzanfall ins Krankenhaus. Sie hat es überlebt, ich habe ihr diesen Song gewidmet.
