Look where we are
We used to be the rockstars
Who never thought of no harm
'Til this thing we call life stopped gleaming
I wish there was a way to go back dreaming

Remembering gets so hard
When time is moving so fast
Wish there was a way to know that we're in
The good old days before we all just leave 'em

I tried getting rid of the pain
I tried to make it go away, but it probably won't change
Always thinking 'bout my own worries
Remember back when we had no worries?
Now life just ain't hitting the same
I sit and miss and reminisce about innocent old days
When I was afraid of nobody
Now I'm afraid of being a nobody

Don't wanna leave my bed
I'll just stay and never get it together
'Cause the voices in my head
They keep saying it'll never get better

Look where we are
We used to be the rockstars
Who never thought of no harm
'Til this thing we call life stopped gleaming
I wish there was a way to go back dreaming

Remembering gets so hard
When time is moving so fast
Wish there was a way to know that we're in
The good old days before we all just leave 'em

Sometimes I got this kinda sting that's right inside my chest
Its only purpose is convincing me that I'm a mess
And even though it's always been an uninvited guest
It finds a way in nonetheless
Wish I could change my address
And you know
Just be somebody else for a couple of days
Although I'm pretty sure we all feel the same kinda way
'Cause if you think about it
Aren't we all set in a place
Where we look back at better days
And wish they weren't so far away?

I wish that I could just go back and be the way I was
I wish I'd still not give a damn 'bout how I come across
I wish the way I saw myself had never gotten lost
In all the worries, all the thoughts, overthinking all the parts
So exhausted, always caught up inside my doubts and flaws
And I'ma count them all
Somebody catch me, I'm 'bout to fall
Yeah, I'm 'bout to fall
Can we press pause?
Or do a restart
And be who we are?

We used to be the rockstars
Who never thought of no harm
'Til this thing we call life stopped gleaming
I wish there was a way to go back dreaming

Remembering gets so hard
When time is moving so fast
Wish there was a way to know that we're in
The good old days before we all just leave 'em

Didn't we?
(We used to be the rockstars)
Didn't we?
(We used to be the rockstars)
(We used to be the rockstars)

Remembering gets so hard
When time is moving so fast
Wish there was a way to know that we're in
The good old days before we all just leave 'em​

Well - I won't be delusional anymore. I am sure that nothing will change next year either. NDR will continue their trip.
I feel sorry for Malik. Really. The song wasn't bad, but just not for ESC. NDR still doesn't understand the concept at all.
Yes, we could again start with the topic Electric Cowboys. Some said that EC would have been more terrible. But I am sure they would have gotten more than 6 points definitely.

Glad that he did not get 0 points from public. Very sad about the jury score, but he did not get last in public vote

Everywhere austerity. ARD with a scaled-down after show party

I never thought he would do better with the public than with the juries (even rising in the odds). Zero points from them is really undeserved, they did him dirty! Especially considering how a lot of other songs scored.

On the other hand, I was relieved he didn't get zero public points and managed to finish ahead of a few countries.

Still, NDR embarassed themselves once again. And this time, they can't even claim stuff like "the public wanted him" when we have clear proof they could've risked more with other acts. Even Michelle with her cringe aftershow Romeo and Julian song would have been a better choice xD Of course nothing will change though. They don't want to win.

I was the only screaming at his performance in my group watching. Like everything should be Fuego or what? Nobody is giving a damn about lyrics nowadays, they forgot how to feel… I got your pain Germany, with UK and Spain at the top you feel left at the bottom , but you didn’t deserve it. ❤️

Just checked comments in YT under his song. Bloody brilliant all of them. Forget the result, he was amazing,tonight the results are meaningless anyway.
