It's called Helden und Diebe, Heroes and Thieves. Which sort of starts thanking the fans, and how they had never thought they could have such a huge following. Then they explain how the "viva la revolucion" spirit has changed throughout the years. They are comfortable where they are, and if the fans want to believe in something they shouldn't believe in them, but in themselves. Very cool song. Too bad not many of you speak German cause I'd bet a lot of you would love this band.
