Alles Was Zählt

They give me 81 years here
Fifty-hour weeks, workhorse
I smile for about thirteen minutes a day
Take vacation every other summer
Get 1.5 kids on average
And forty-five thousand gross a year

Is that all that matters?
Somehow I can't feel it
All that matters?
I've never been good with numbers, yeah
And every time the day rushes past me
I realize how much I miss you
I believe, all that matters
You can't count that

The wristwatch counted every step
Says I should go faster, or it'll be too late
And reminds me to take a sip of water
I've searched for the word 'meaning' seven times
And Amazon recommends me this book
But where's the meaning if we don't see each other?

Is that all that matters?
Somehow I can't feel it
All that matters?
I've never been good with numbers, yeah
And every time the day rushes past me
I realize how much I miss you
I believe, all that matters
You can't count that

They broke me down to
Six senses and 212 bones
Tell me, when the heart stops beating, who calculates the worth?
They broke me down to
Thirty trillion cells and 212 bones
But the heart beats and longs for more

Is that all that matters?
Somehow I can't feel it
All that matters?
I've never been good with numbers, yeah
And every time the day rushes past me
I realize how much I miss you
I believe, all that matters
You can't count that

And every time the day rushes past me
I realize how much I miss you
I believe, all that matters
You can't count that
