Filler : Pink Turns Blue - Walking on both sides

Pink Turns Blue is a German rock/dark wave band which began its activity in 1985 and this song, "Walking on both sides", is from their debut album "If two worlds kiss" from 1987. The song, as it is, lends itself to restless hearts, the lyrics, if read and studied, hold surprises. To my knowledge the video is not official but made by the Youtube user Asinus Aureus. It nevertheless goes well with the song and in some regards even being complementary.


Lyrics:
I don't know I thing outside (?)
suffering endless through my life
I've seen too much I'm all alone

Who likes to sit around and wait
but to act that means to fail
All I ever thought was wrong

Damn the madness of my pride
the price I paid was much too high
My dreams became reality

Cause I'm walking on both sides

Much more real than my life
I am caged by thick ice
Makes me gloomy and morose

Why I dared to go so far
lost my strength and lost my heart
I've to stay somewhere between

Cause I'm walking on both sides

Can't escape reality
always traveling in my dreams
Nothing I could take for true
How should I know whether I love you
whether I love you

I'm walking on both sides
