Édes gyermekem

Merre lettek társai a kipányvázott lovainknak , édes gyermekem?
Hol vannak a gazdái hat járásnyi földünknek, édes gyermekem?
 
Merre lettek a társai a pusztát belakó lovainknak, édes gyermekem?
Hol vannak a lakói öt járásnyi földünknek, édes gyermekem?
 
Itt vannak társai a nyolcvan ezer hátasnak , édes gyermekem.
Itt vannak a lakói a nyolc járásnyi hazánknak, édes gyermekem
 
U.i: Zsungária királyság területén 1755-ben Manchuk által mongolok ellen elkövetett genocidra utal ez a dal. Szöveg fájdalmas szépségét sajnos, nem tudom átadni hiányos költői képességem miatt.

Boomerang

There was once a boomerang.
It was a bit too long.
It flew a short distance,
but it never came back.
The crowd there, for hours, still
waited for the boomerang.

Thunderstorm

Thunder...
Thunder...
What a thunderstorm!
 
Blanket over the head, the ears tightly plugged with cotton wool
(Uh uh, uh uh)
What going on there, what is that, hell is going on the sky
(Uh uh, uh uh)
Seems like somebody is angry up there, night is being flooded
The clouds are spitting fire, and I almost wet my pants!
 
I chatter with my teeth, hide myself in my bed
(Uh uh, uh uh)
My cat is in panic, lies there flattening out like an omlet!
(Uh uh, uh uh)
Bright lights on the walls, and no end is near
Apparently the water pipe is not tight in the sky!
 
Lightning and thunder dazzling and loud
(What a thunderstorm)
All nails chewed off
(During a thunderstorm)
When there's a bang, I get goosebumps
(A thunderstorm)
Press stop, turn it off, can't you see how we dread it?
(During a thunderstorm)
 
Like in the movies, my hair stands up
(Uh uh, uh uh)
Because Mister Weathergod is apparently not in a good mood today
(Uh uh, uh uh)
 
At the next thunder strike, I've had enough, and go
to my parents' bed, but both shiver as much as me!
 
Lightning and thunder, dazzling and loud...
 
Faces are pale and wan
(Faces are pale and wan)
My knees weak like butter!
 
Thunder!
(Uh uh, uh uh)
 
Suddenly the dazzling light fades away
But we have the feeling that it's too good to last
(Because here comes the next)
 
Thunder!
 
Lightning and thunder, dazzling and loud...
 
Thunder!

Agony

I constantly run into walls
because your heart doesn‘t mention me
I lie awake in tears
throughout the night
throughout the day
 
Narrow island of hope
located in the vast ocean
will it sink soon?
what agony, what agony
 
Wild euphoria, wild agony
Wild euphoria, wild agony (x2)
 
Thoughts are floating in the clouds
Longing makes life hard
You take your warmth away from me
you‘re not there, you‘re not there
I don‘t get a message
it makes my life empty
no matter what I do
I can‘t reach you anymore
 
Wild euphoria, wild agony
Wild euphoria, wild agony (x2)
 
I can‘t reach you anymore
 
Wild euphoria, wild agony
Wild euphoria, wild agony (x2)

After the Thunderstorm

The lightning struck me once.
My steely, left-sleeved cufflink
had disappeared, and there was a buzzing
in my head as if I'd many a drink.
 
And Doctor Berninger remarked,
so naughty, with wicked pride,
that my buzzing story was typical,
my lightning story was a lie.

Quadrille of Saint Joachim

She is the miller's daughter
Who danced with the guys
She lost her garter
Her garter that would not stay up
That didn’t stay, that didn’t stay, that scarcely held up
That didn't stay, that didn't stay, that didn't stay
When you feel like it, are you staying up for more gals,
When you feel like it, it stays on you longer.

Born in the Wrong World

I can't sleep, I see images
in bright colours, they get wilder and wilder.
Then, suspiciously, a car comes driving
straight towards me (towards me).1
Then I see lightning coming from all sides
and faces too, I'm very dazed.
The door opens and Petra brings me pear juice.
 
I've been completely disturbed since then,
my vision is all blurry.
What threw me out of balance back then
at night, at night?
 
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You're not alone).
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You should be happy).
 
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You're not alone).
(You should be happy).
 
A new beginning, maybe as Casanova,
under the sun with plenty of bossa nova
and a bank account that would
make everyone's head spin (head spin).
 
And then it goes off into the open space
above the clouds and it's not a dream
on the journey to bliss, so far, so far.
 
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You're not alone).
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You should be happy).
 
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You're not alone).
(You should be happy).
 
Then I go off into open space,
into the clouds in the next dream
on the journey to eternity, so far, so far, so far.
 
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You're not alone).
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You should be happy).
 
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You're not alone).
(You should be happy).
 
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You're not alone).
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You should be happy).
 
I was just born into the wrong world.
(You're not alone).
(You should be happy).
 
(You should be happy).

The world is changing

1. The world is changing, something is being predicted,
The earth is moving, a mystery is floating,
The answer to the question, Jesus is coming,
Accompanied by holyday retinue, with His army from heaven.
 
A: Jesus is coming, the Bridegroom is coming on the clouds,
Are you ready, you virgins?
Be always on waiting for Him
Ready to welcome! : /
 
2. It's a great preparation, the bride is ready,
Just wait for the signal, get ready to fly,
The cry is heard in the spirit: “Oh, Maranatha!
Oh, come, come, Jesus, we look forward to You '
 
3. For the signs show us that there is no long time,
Soon it'll be dawn, and the night is over,
On the clouds with great glory Jesus comes
With thousands and thousands of flocks, we'll meet Him!

My Beloved Child

Where are the peers of the horses that filled the tether, kongurai?
Where are the people of my six clan, kongurai?
 
Where are the peers of the horses that filled the steppe, kongurai?
Where are the people of my five clans, kongurai?
 
Here are the peers of the eighty thousand horses, kongurai
Here are the people of my eight clans, kongurai

Earthquake

Whenever the wind changes
Whenever the wrong ones celebrate
Whenever the horizon dawns
Whenever my pulse races
Whenever it's raining doubt
And I look into the gloomy flicker
 
I swim in the breakers of my soul
And I can't reach the shore anymore
 
Like an earthquake
I feel this war inside of me
I fight alone against this emptiness
Like an earthquake
I feel this deficit
Find me before I lose you
 
Whenever day comes
People torment themselves through the streets
Whenever I silently stand by
Whenever I disturb
I can't hear my breath anymore
Like I'm going the wrong way
 
I swim in the breakers of my soul
And I can't reach the shore anymore
 
Like an earthquake
I feel this war inside of me
I fight alone against this emptiness
Like an earthquake
I feel this deficit
Find me before I lose you
 
Like an earthquake
I think about you all the time
See how my shadows rise
Like an earthquake
The power of love shakes me
Doors burst open and I can live
Live
 
Like an earthquake
I feel this war inside of me
I fight alone against this emptiness
Like an earthquake
I feel this deficit
Find me before I lose you
 
Like an earthquake
I think about you all the time
See how my shadows rise
Like an earthquake
The power of love shakes me
Doors burst open and I can live

Tears

Forever would be more beautiful, but it's usually a dream.
The summers pass by and the room is empty.
Somewhere a new prophet of eternal love
is waiting.
Until then, nothing works anymore, even there.
 
No reason to cheer!
This is what I see.
 
Take my tears and go.
Eventually it won't hurt anymore.
I'm really spellbound and torn,
but I know what I see.
Take my tears and go.
 
New love, that's our fate.
It will forgive us, a healing consolation.
After all these years, do I understand it?
 
Take my tears and go.
Eventually it won't hurt anymore.
I'm really spellbound and torn,
but I know what I see.
Take my tears and go.
 
How often I drive out of the city
because I need to see the horizon.
I need a new goal,
I have to to change my life.
I have to distract myself,
I have to finally be able to say goodbye to you,
even if I can't forget you
 
Take my tears and go.
Eventually it won't hurt anymore.
I'm really spellbound and torn,
but I know what I see.
Take my tears and go.
Take my tears and go.
Take my tears and go.

Scream

Versions: #1
One exhausting day, on a day that was too long
Filled with sighs, you soothe your worn out mind
Today, and again tomorrow, you will get up once again
Surely, you'll live through the day
 
The vague expectations, and the dreary laughter,
It gradually changes as time goes by
The pain breaking out from your sorrowful heart,
It won't disappear
 
Can they hear our forlorn cries?
You've held it in this far, so surely you can withstand it again
Even when darkness comes for a visit while walking this long path
We were always together, grasping each other's hands
 
In a put out room, a single ray of light shines through the window
You hope it'll shine brightly on you someday
If you wish and wish it, it will come true
That's what you believed, and were waiting for
 
Can they hear our forlorn cries?
You've held it in this far, so surely you can withstand it again
Even when darkness comes for a visit while walking this long path
We were always together, grasping each other's hands
 
Why is there no answer?
Why are they silently covering it up?
 
One exhausting day, on a day that was too long
Filled with sighs, you soothe your worn out mind
Today, and again tomorrow, you will get up once again
Surely, you'll live through the day

Light in the Ocean

How many times have you prayed at night,
begging for this leaden pain
to finally fall away?
How many hours
have you held out in the darkness
and wondered what tomorrow would bring?
 
And everything turns to stone,
turns to dust, becomes eternity.
Everything passes by,
will be blown away into infinity.
 
We're the last light in the ocean,
trapped in time,
waiting our whole lives
for the hand that will set us free.
And they say rescue will come,
but I can only see shadows.
And I know I'm not perfect,
but I'd like to understand.
 
How many times have you regretted your guilt,
your lust, your fear,
all too often made a slave?
How many times have you felt this stinging
deep inside your heart,
always trying to be someone else?
 
And everything turns to stone,
turns to dust, becomes eternity.
Everything passes by,
will be blown away into infinity.
 
We're the last light in the ocean,
trapped in time,
waiting our whole lives
for the hand that will set us free.
And they say rescue will come,
but I can only see shadows.
And I know I'm not perfect,
but I'd like to understand.

Without You

Versions: #1
I hear your voice as though you were still here
Carry your ideas deep within me
And I suffer the memory and I suffer the loss
I'm alone without you
I would have lived differently had I known that
 
And whenever the wind sweeps through the streets,
I'm here without you
Without you
And whenever the star inside me sinks,
I'm here without you
Without you
And whenever the wind sweeps through the streets,
I'm here without you
Without you
And whenever the star inside me sinks,
I'm here without you
Without you
 
In the diary, there's just a quick kiss goodbye
I long for so much more, I tried though
And I think about the summer air and I feel the warm light
You always built me up
I've looked into the future and all it shows is you
 
And whenever the wind sweeps through the streets,
I'm here without you
Without you
And whenever the star inside me sinks,
I'm here without you
Without you
And whenever the wind sweeps through the streets,
I'm here without you
Without you
And whenever the star inside me sinks,
I'm here without you
Without you
And whenever the wind sweeps through the streets,
I'm here without you
Without you
And whenever the star inside me sinks,
I'm here without you
Without you
Just a quick kiss goodbye
And I'm without you again

Over the Ocean

Burnt road to Arzachena
Through ripe grain and the sun's hot blaze
Two hearts flee from the, from the arena
Of loneliness and silent rage
 
(And we dream)
(Dream tears)
(Dream tears for the hundredth time)
 
Like out of the underworld
Into a magical field
Like out of the hands of criminals
Into Wonderland
 
Across the ocean
Flies the white swan
With our vow of love
Our traces of life
 
Sweet scent of the woods
Over Arzachena
And summer gold never stops
And in the evening light,
Arzachena rests
And 100 crows draw the curtain
 
(And we dream)
(Dream tears)
(Dream tears for the hundredth time)
 
Like out of the underworld
Into a magical field
Like out of the hands of criminals
Into Wonderland
 
Across the ocean
Flies the white swan
With our vow of love
Our traces of life
 
Like out of the underworld
Into a magical field
Like out of the hands of criminals
Into Wonderland
 
Across the ocean
Flies the white swan
With our vow of love
Our traces of life

The Storm

The clouds are too thick
A thundershower is approaching
I sit on the veranda
The dog is buried in fear
 
The moon sees little chance
Before the disaster unfolds
Wounded, a falcon flees
As a messenger through the pale light
 
The storm, it hurls its face at you
The storm, devastation and thunder everywhere
 
Lightning fells old trees
And they bore into the house
Sweating with fear, I sit in the cellar
And the lights go out
 
Water surges incessantly
With mud into the cellar hole
I'll fight my way out of the hole in no time
And stay alive
 
The storm, it hurls its face at you
The storm, devastation and thunder everywhere
The storm, it sends a wall of water across the land
The storm, whoever isn't already sinking in mud will drown
 
Boats come, floating past
No one sees me in the night
Lights pan back and forth
But none spot me
 
Cold flood waters tear at my body
I'm already growing stiff with cold
I feel myself slipping over
To the much sought-after throne
 
The storm, it hurls its face at you
The storm, devastation and thunder everywhere
The storm, it sends a wall of water across the land
The storm, whoever isn't already sinking in mud will drown
 
The storm, it hurls its face at you
The storm, devastation and thunder everywhere

Good Night

There is still a lot of things to do, but
the day already passes
I don't know if I made mistakes
I'm a bit worried (It's okay it's okay)
 
Someone kept looking at me
Did they know me, or did they just look at me
What do I do to become more pretty
Should I stop eating, should I try a face mask
 
Even though I pretend to be bright, to smile
I feel scared everyday
Will I be able to do it
at least like today
 
Good night
(No matter how today anyways)
Good night
(Forget the things to forget, tomorrow is just tomorrow)
I hope you dream only good dreams like the clear snow
Don't worry about anything and good night
 
Good night Good night Good night
Good night Good night Good night
I want to wish one wish, so that it reaches the sky
Don't worry about anything and good night
 
It's been a few days
that I haven't called my mom again
It's time that I'm can speak well but
I guess there's still a long way to go
 
Even though I don't know too well, even though the world doesn't know
I'll do more better
Can I be a good daughter
to my mom
 
Good night Good night Good night
Good night Good night Good night
I want to wish one wish, so that it reaches the sky
Don't worry about anything and good night
 
Still I don't believe these moments
My dreams that started I don't believe it
Everything’s gonna be fine
We make it real all of us together
 
Alright
(It's okay, you've been through it once)
Alright
(Don't worry, this girl will guarantee everything)
I hope you'll have a good morning like you who is bright
Don't worry about anything and good night
 
Good night Good night Good night
Good night Good night Good night
I want to wish one wish, so that it reaches the sky
Don't worry about anything and good night
 
Good night

How Many More Times Do I Have To Die?

Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many more times do I have to die?
 
With each day, the memory
of what happened back
on that cold winter day returns.
In that moment,
you were ripped away from me.
Nature has no conscience,
and so now I have to continue on
when all the clocks are standing still.
 
This world casts a thousand shadows,
all existence just refracts the light.
And in each of these shadows,
I always see your face.
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
When can I go?
Tell me, how many more times do I have to die
before the two of us meet again?
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times...
When can I go?
...before we see each other again someday in another life?
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many more times do I have to die?
 
Wet, heavy sand
falling down on you,
it's the last image of you
that I have in my mind.
And above your final resting place,
a cold wind blows
over to all of us
who are trapped here.
 
And I wait for the end.
It's time to go away from here.
And we'll see each other again
in another life.
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
When can I go?
Tell me, how many more times do I have to die
before the two of us meet again?
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times...
When can I go?
...before we see each other again someday in another life?
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many more times do I have to die?
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many more times do I have to die?
 
And time doesn't heal wounds,
it's united with death.
And with each hour,
time becomes more and more my enemy.
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
When can I go?
Tell me, how many more times do I have to die
before the two of us meet again?
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times...
When can I go?
...before we see each other again someday in another life?
 
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many times?
Tell me, how many more times do I have to die?

When You Call Me

I'm searching for myself, I'm with myself alone.
I find the day in the night.
 
Pictures arise out of moving fantasy.
It's not new, but it's clear.
 
When you call me,
I'll come to you.
I'm here for you
and you're with me.
It brings a twinkle to my eye when I see
that we still get along so well.
 
What once was is not the present.
Looking back changes nothing.
 
When we see each other, we feel great strength.
Our friendship is no accident.
 
When you call me,
I'll come to you.
I'm here for you
and you're with me.
It brings a twinkle to my eye when I see
that we still get along so well.
 
No remnants.
It's as true as it was.
Not even lonely.
There was no scandal,
no scandal,
there never was.
 
When you call me,
I'll come to you.
I'm here for you
and you're with me.
It brings a twinkle to my eye when I see
that we still get along so well.

I Love You Ever So Much

I love you ever so much!
Without a doubt, I wanted to
give you a tile from my stove.
I never did anything to you.
Now I feel very sad.
With beauty, the gorse flower shines
on the railroad tracks.
Over, time-barred,
but never forgotten.
I travel.
Everything that lasts long
is silent.
Time disfigures all living beings.
A dog barks.
It cannot read.
It cannot write.
We cannot stay.
I laugh.
A sift is mainly full of holes.
I love you ever so much.

Boomerang

There was once a bommerang.
It was a little bit too long.
Boomerang! A piece flew off,
but it never then came back.
A crowd - for many hours still -
waited for a boomerang.

New Moon

Who doesn't like to dream of happiness in being?
Who sees their path from the very beginning?
Who does a facepalm?
Who feels the imbalance of their ego?
 
Who drives the worries onward?
Who loves the moon with heavy thoughtfulness?
Who pays attention to the optical illusions?
Who crawls, lost, out of the sewer?
 
Who just goes right along with the herd instinct?
Who likes falling through the sieve?
Who's the chump with the birthmark?
The shy one with the tormented soul?
 
I think it's me!

Spirits To The Light

Why no love and miracles,
everyone dies a miserable death.
Everything smells of fire and tinder,
corpses in the dirt.
Dead line the sandy streets
as though it was normal.
These images aren't just horrible,
but disgusting and brutal too.
 
That could be you too,
just as well as me.
In the face of fear,
everyone thinks of themselves.
 
Refrain:
Bring peace back to the country,
reach out all your bleeding hands,
send your idea of the enemy into the void,
bring your spirits to the light.1
 
And so your homeland burns
without prohibition.
And so the old send
death to the children.
 
[Refrain] (2x)
 
That could be you too,
just as well as me.
In the face of fear,
everyone thinks of themselves.
 
[Refrain] (2x)
 
Bring your spirits to the light.
 
  • 1. This is clearer in German because of the plural form of 'you,' which English doesn't have. It should be interpreted as '[All of you] bring your spirits into the light.' 'Spirits' is plural because it refers to more than one person, not one person with multiple spirits.

The Return

Sought my luck in strange lands
But then it was over
Inspiration came to an end
A gift for the two of us
Many people and countries
Passed by me
 
You're my angel
On the shield of my world
You're my heaven,
The one who holds onto our hands
 
All my fear has vanished
All my tears released
I also moved over mountains
And am ready for anything
Many people and countries
Passed by me
 
You're my angel
On the shield of my world
You're my heaven,
The one who holds onto our hands
 
You're my angel
On the shield of my world
You're my heaven,
The one who holds onto our hands
 
(You're my angel
On the shield of my world
You're my heaven,
The one who holds onto our hands)

Brothers

I open my heart's gate, closing the gap
Deep in a thicket, I recall
How you suddenly took flight, left a gaping wound in me
Because what did I even know back then
 
Out of the heat of the moment, I emerge unscathed
Spoiling for rebellion, scorning judgement's day
Childhood shapes us, reason observes
And we weep and rejoice
 
You are my darkness - you are my light
All that is tainted, all that is pure
Break away because strength, requires a price
Survive to thrive, you are the price
 
On Jerusalem's rooftops, like a fish in the sky
A boy with no roof that partied and partied, and...
Remembers Sabbaths, stranded bare plates
And birthday candles I blew out in your stead
 
And darkness- and light
All that is tainted, all that is pure
Break away because strength, requires a price
Survive to thrive, you are the price
 
When mother's laughing, inside she's shouting
Who will tell her what days will bring- what a child will bring
Is there even a way
To water the flower, and not with her tears
 
You were her darkness- now there's light
All that is tainted, all that is pure
Break away because strength, requires a price
Survive to thrive, you are the price
 
I open my heart's gate, closing the gap
Deep in a thicket
I recall

70 years in the car, I’m traveling and looking
At what was and what will be
And how my soul is still this nation
 
From the Massada of sunrises
From Jerusalem of the [Slichot Kippur] prayers
From the Kinneret beaches
From the parties of Tel Aviv
 
My father dreamed and prayed
To live in the Land of Israel
Today my child asks me
What is the story of Israel?
 
This is my home, this is my heart
And I will not leave you
Our ancestors, our roots
We are the flowers, the melodies
Sitting as brothers and sisters
 
The same neighborhood, the same street
Jacob’s twelve sons
Bring together their wanderings
In their knapsack of longing
 
A man is his native landscape
Engraves lines in the palm of his hand
Between the prayers and the vows
The fragrance of a citrus orchard
 
And in my mother’s eyes
I’ll always find my place
The guitar is playing
An ancient tune that gives direction
 
This is a my home
This is my heart
And I will not leave you
Our ancestors, our roots
And we are the flowers, the melodies
Sitting as brothers and sisters
 
From the beginning, everything has been sewn
Patches, patches of the story
Like two words – they connect
The golden needle of a poet
 
I am from here, I belong
And every friend of mine is like a brother
You are beating in my heart
I am east and west
 
This is my home
This is my heart
And I will not leave you
Our ancestors, our roots
We are the flowers, the melodies
Sitting as brothers and sisters
 
This is my home
This is my heart
And I will not leave you
Our ancestors, our roots
We are the flowers, the melodies
Sitting as brothers and sisters

Archimedes the Pythagorean

X-144-A-A1B-K2R-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-Zero
 
Archimedes—Archimedes—Archimedes
 
Archimedes the Pythagorean, I tell you friends,
knows how to invent the impossible—and then and then,
he always saves our heroes who get into trouble with secret formulas
known only to him.
But he gets distracted and forgets to ask for payment—
and a cent—no, no, he does not have a cent to his name.
 
Archimedes—Archimedes—Archimedes
 
Archimedes the Pythagorean, as we now know,
has the most electronic brain of anyone in the world.
He takes a wheel, four screws, and a bell—
then the pipe from a stove and a balloon pump—
fastening everything together with glue—and then “poof!”—
a huge flying saucer appears.
 
Where does he come from—he arrives with a “eh eh eh di”—
and with a brilliant idea that brings everyone to their feet.
 
Archimedes the Pythagorean, I tell you friends,
I really wish he would come with a supersonic ray
on a visit to us here.
Using it over and over again to produce a nifty robot,
one able to move up and down and to perform work—
while we stay here all day and dance.

Over the Sea

The path leads me beyond the mind
I'll clean up if it's not working anymore
Seek my luck then, within myself
Concentrate on my world
 
Strength comes, weakness goes
throw everything out it until it passes by
 
with lots of patience, I come to the finish line
back from exile once again
 
Over the sea, the wind runs away
takes with it whatever no longer makes sense
But it leaves my courage with me
Anyway, a good place to stay
 
Wherever I go, new problem
I don't want to see what I don't want.
 
Confrontation is the process
it navigates me out of excess
 
Over the sea, the wind runs away
takes with it whatever no longer makes sense
But it leaves my courage with me
Anyway, a good place to stay
 
Loyalty and vows help only a little
if you'll be singing with others soon
 
Over the sea, the wind runs away
takes with it whatever no longer makes sense
But it leaves my courage with me
Anyway, a good place to stay

It's Raining Inside Me

A young day, I feel the autumn
The sun streams down, but it's March
The wind stands still, the air is pure
And I want to be someone else
 
Because it's raining inside me
Because it's raining inside me
 
I cry about what I am
The future hurts, where do I want to go?
The wind stands still, the air is pure
And I want to be someone else
 
Because it's raining inside me
Because it's raining inside me
Because it's raining inside me
(And I want to be someone else)
Because it's raining inside me
(And I want to be someone else)
 
And a piece of me stands up
But a piece of me remains lying down
And the fear stands up
And the fighter falls back
And the soul rears up
But its wishes remain unclear, remain unclear
 
Because it's raining inside me
(And I want to be someone else)
Because it's raining inside me
(And I want to be someone else)

Rise

The sky cries, the wave breaks
terror falls over the land
Chaos is born
There is only water and nothing else
the force presses here on every wall
and everything seems lost
 
We will rise again
a sea of flags in the wind
we will lift ourselves up
because we're made of iron
We will rise again
with tears of joy
when all the others walk away
we'll return
We will rise again...
 
The storms scream, the masses roar
nothing but ruins, right where I stood
often summoned by many
The tower of clouds covers the light
the waves wash the dike into the land
and heroes are born
 
We will rise again
a sea of flags in the wind
we will lift ourselves up
because we're made of iron
We will rise again
with tears of joy
when all the others walk away
we'll return
We will rise again...
[x2]
 
when all the others walk away
we'll return
We will rise again...

Until the End of Time

I never saw you stand before me so helplessly until the news came
The grief settled over the place, which was full of sun
Your empty gaze lost itself in the crowd, which swam in an echo
And it didn't matter whether everyone understood your look
 
Because I share your pain
And I share your sorrow
And I'll share your feelings
Until the end of time
And I'll stroke your hair
And I'll keep you warm
at night
 
After a time of melancholy, the light came back into your world
What luck, what a wonderful victory
when courage doesn't burn out
Even if the shadows sometimes pull the curtain shut
as so often happens
So I'll stay with you, until you discover happiness again
 
Because I share your pain
And I share your sorrow
And I'll share your feelings
Until the end of time
And I'll stroke your hair
And I'll keep you warm
at night
 
Because I share your pain
And I share your sorrow
And I'll share your feelings
Until the end of time
And I'll stroke your hair
And I'll keep you warm
at night
