Eckstein, Eckstein
Alles muss versteckt sein

Wieder lieg' ich auf der Lauer
Denn wir spielen unser Spiel
Wieder wart' ich an der Mauer
Wieder steh' ich kurz vorm Ziel

Und ich höre deinen Atem
Und ich rieche deine Angst
Ich kann nicht mehr länger warten
Denn ich weiß, was du verlangst

Ständig such' ich dein Gesicht
Wenn ich dich dann endlich habe
Spielen wir Wahrheit oder Pflicht
