Teardrop Songtext
von The Collective

We′re torn between what's right and what′s not
What's up, what's down

Left or right, deep down, on top, full stops
Exclamation mark, punctuation

100%, straight A′s, education
University, job prospects, lost objects

New posessions, new friends
Old lessons

New questions, old answers
New message

Repeat sentence, feel presence
Receive gestures

Learn more, seek blessings

Seek forgiveness

Seek freedom, seek vengeance
Be full of life, be vacant
Flee danger, be braver


Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Be careful, be reckless
Be reserved, be respected

Be flamboyant, be rejected
Be loved, be neglected
See sense

See nonsense, see the lies
See honesty

See properly, see poorly
See tarnished, see quality

Keep changing, be a changer
Be popular, be a stranger

Do favours, be selfish
Share riches, be homeless

Be selfless, be careless
Be you, be them
Be anyone


Be an enemy, be a friend
But beware

Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

You can be anything you dream of

A wise man appreciates the time on a cheap watch

Value everything you own

Somebody probably dreams of the bed that you sleep on

Be anything, it′s your choice

Always speak your mind

Your voice
We're living in the land of opportunities

You can turn silver into gold with four coins

Come on
Love is a verb
A doing word
On, on my breath

Now don′t you quit on me

Makes me lighter

I need you baby

Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
