A saeculum is a length of time roughly equal to the potential lifetime of a person or the equivalent of the complete renewal of a human population. The term was first used by the Etruscans. Originally it meant the period of time from the moment that something happened (for example the founding of a city) until the point in time that all people who had lived at the first moment had died. At that point a new saeculum would start. According to legend, the gods had allotted a certain number of saecula to every people or civilization; the Etruscans themselves, for example, had been given ten saecula.
By the 2nd century BC, Roman historians were using the saeculum to periodize their chronicles and track wars. At the time of the reign of emperor Augustus, the Romans decided that a saeculum was 110 years. In 17 BC Caesar Augustus organised Ludi saeculares ('century-games') for the first time to celebrate the 'fifth saeculum of Rome'. Later emperors like Claudius and Septimius Severus have celebrated the passing of saecula with games at irregular intervals. In 248, Philip the Arab combined Ludi saeculares with the 1000th anniversary of the founding of Rome 'ab urbe condita'. The new millennium that Rome entered was called the Saeculum Novum,[citation needed] a term that got a metaphysical connotation in Christianity, referring to the worldly age (hence 'secular').[citation needed]

Dann bin ich wieder aufgewacht

Can't you hear the alarm
Can't you hear the alarm
Because you see me so calm
But I can hear the alarm
It has been a long, long fight
To bring back the dark to the light
How will we go on, I'm walking along
How will we go on, turn the radio on
How will we go on, press "on" and then run
How will we go on
Dann bin ich wieder aufgewacht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgewacht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgetaucht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgetaucht
How will we go on, I'm walking along
How will we go on, turn the radio on
How will we go on, press "on" and then run
How will we go on
Dann bin ich wieder aufgewacht
Dann bin ich wieder aufgetaucht
Can't you hear the alarm
Can't you hear the alarm
Because you see me so calm
But I can hear the alarm
Can't you hear the alarm
Can't you hear the alarm
Because you see me so calm
But I can hear the alarm
So we're born again
Bur far apart long distance
But I'm on my way
Ready to disappear in an instance
So this is the time and place
Same procedure, same weapons, same face
Same problem, same planet, same race#
Ring the alarm, the next generation is coming
Ring the alarm, the X generation is coming
Ring the alarm, the best generations are coming
Ring the alarm, regenration is coming, is coming
Ring the alarm, for the next generation is coming

Ooooh, when we lie awake,
We feel alright
Give yourself away
To the rising tide
Find your home again
I'd light the way
Til the strait runs dry
Need to find a place
Where the? can run
Counting down the days
Baby, one by one
We can get away
When the work is done
Feel so calm in the way you are (x4)
Ooooh, such an easy way
With the draft outside
Brings the light of day
On the lantern's eye
Broken by the storm
When the door was wide
We'll repay the faith
When time is right
I'm not wasting time (x6)
Break it off before it sticks and we can't get rid of it
Paint the cracks, fill the holes
Cover up this broken home
It's such a mess, you left it here
Hoping for a better year
With less to say and more to do
I only wish we'd made it through the one before
And in a while you'll understand
That I am just another guy
With all the faults you couldn't fix
I kept them locked away inside
What went wrong before you left?
Was it something that I said?
I only opened up for fear of falling out of touch again
And I didn't mean to make the same mistakes I swore I'd always leave
Behind with all the other skeletons the past will never let you quite let go
And in a while you'll understand
I am just another guy
With all the faults you couldn't fix
The ones that never go away
And I didn't mean to be your perfect
I never was the one
I only opened up for fear of getting too close to the sun
I met you by the bay under Sausalito skies
The bridge looks different in the winter
And the Sacramento rain keeps on falling as I write
In this letter never sent
To a girl I used to dream of
