Globus Hypermarket Holding (Globus SB-Warenhaus Holding GmbH & Co. KG) branded as Globus is a German retail chain of hypermarkets, DIY stores and electronics stores.
History
In 1828 Franz Bruch (1801-1865) opened a grocery store in St. Wendel under his name. In 1865 Joseph Adam Bruch (1837-1905) continued in the management of the company. Joseph Karl Bruch (1873-1949), the grandson of the founder, took over the company from his father in 1905. Since then the company has developed from a retailer towards wholesale. On 1 February 1949 Joseph died. His two sons, Franz-Josef and Dr. Walter Bruch (1913-1999), took over the company, now converted to a limited-liability company. In 1953 the company opened its first self-service grocery at its headquarters under the name "A. Backhaus KG".

Save Me
by: GlobusSee me take my bows
And I'm heading for the exits
I can't stick around
This life's been hard
And I can't see the sense in fighting it anymore
Can't let you go
Won't you show me the door
'Cause I've made mistakes
That have hurt the ones I've loved
And I've thrown them under the bus
One too many times
There can be no redemption for a sinner such as I
Won't you wish me to the cornfield now
Won't you help me stop living a lie
So here I am in the corner of a dark room
The same way I began
Alone with these mournfoul thoughts
And a loaded gun in my hand
But a foolish part of me
Still holds out for a shred of humanity
For a queen in a robe or a knight on a steed
Can't you see that I'm just a child on his knees
Save Me from fear and pain
And love will rain on me
Save Me today, 'fore tomorrow
Finds me at rest
Save Me from fear and pain
And love come down and rain on me
Save Me today, for tomorrow, find me at rest
Now I'm standing alone in the moment of truth
As the judgement's handed down
And my feet are scarred from the broken glass
Strewn across the ground
Then you come to my side
And only to you I confide
That I've been battered and shattered and bruised and abused
For the very very last time
Won't you help me, just
Save Me from fear and pain
And love reign o'er me
Save Me, Save Me today
For tomorrow will find me at rest
Save me from fear and pain
And love will rain on me
Save Me today
For tomorrow, find me at rest
