Berlin ( /bɜrˈlɪn/; German pronunciation: [bɛɐ̯ˈliːn] ( listen)) is the capital city of Germany and one of the 16 states of Germany. With a population of 3.5 million people, Berlin is Germany's largest city and is the second most populous city proper and the eighth most populous urban area in the European Union. Located in northeastern Germany, it is the center of the Berlin-Brandenburg Metropolitan Region, which has 5.9 million residents from over 190 nations. Located in the European Plains, Berlin is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate. Around one third of the city's area is composed of forests, parks, gardens, rivers and lakes.
First documented in the 13th century, Berlin was the capital of the Kingdom of Prussia (1701–1918), the German Empire (1871–1918), the Weimar Republic (1919–1933) and the Third Reich (1933–1945).Berlin in the 1920s was the third largest municipality in the world. After World War II, the city became divided into East Berlin—the capital of East Germany—and West Berlin, a West German exclave surrounded by the Berlin Wall (1961–1989). Following German reunification in 1990, the city regained its status as the capital of Germany, hosting 147 foreign embassies.
This is a time to reunite
I am freezing (I am freezing)
And nothing feels right
Nothing feels right!
Come back, feel this, I am never alone
Breathe in, breathe deep, I don't want to go home
Let it out, don't hide from your fears
Let it out, I'm sick of your tears
I am living in fear
I am drowning in tears
Don't let me fall to my descent
The time is now for you to pick me off the ground
(To pick me off the ground)
I promise I won't forget.
I won't forget, I won't forget!
I won't forget!
Falling into the depths of eternity
Falling into the depths of eternity
When you fail, I expect there to be a second chance
Like you would for me
I arrive without a doubt in my mind.
Realize life's undefined
Life's undefined
Is this the place I want to be
(Are these the sights I want to see)
Is this who we want to be
(Is this all you want from me)
Can you hold a candle to the fear inside of you
Can you hold a candle to the fear inside of you
This cannot be my final breath
These will not be my final words
Nothing (nothing) is written in stone
I am living in fear
I am drowning in tears
I am living in fear
I am drowning in tears
Don't let me fall to my descent
The time is now for you to pick me off the ground
(To pick me off the ground)
I promise I won't forget
