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)
 

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).

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.
 

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
 

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?

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.
 

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)
 

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
 

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...
[x2]
 

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)
[x2]
 

Jetsam

The yearning took possession of me
I wanted to be alone
I wanted nothing more of what everyone else was doing
I just wanted to be by myself
Every goal had disappeared
And all I saw was the fear of the next day
And as sheer compulsion rang out from my soul,
not one thing was clear to me
 
I am like jetsam1
After its maiden voyage and a steep, brief happiness
And I was there and it was beautiful and not of this world
I am like jetsam
And it was so hard and I cried behind the dike
I'm back, don't know for how long
But I'll give it a try
I am like jetsam
 
The passion that moved me
lost speed so quickly
Nothing was as as it had been
A shot of another kind
All friends disappeared
Courage was nothing but a deep valley of grief
Nerves were raw in this house of sand,
which was my home
 
I am like jetsam
After its maiden voyage and a steep, brief happiness
And I was there and it was beautiful and not of this world
I am like jetsam
And it was so hard and I cried behind the dike
I'm back, don't know for how long
But I'll give it a try
I am like jetsam
 
I am like jetsam
After its maiden voyage and a steep, brief happiness
And I was there and it was beautiful and not of this world
I am like jetsam
And it was so hard and I cried behind the dike
I'm back, don't know for how long
But I'll give it a try
I am like jetsam
 

• 1. “Flotsam and jetsam” are often used together or interchangeably to refer to any type of wreckage or debris that washes up on a beach. But maritime law differentiates between the two, with “flotsam” (Treibgut) referring to parts of wreckage or cargo that wash up on shore naturally and “jetsam” (Strandgut) being things that are intentionally thrown overboard and discarded. It's possible that “Strandgut” is used here as a general term to refer to both or either, but I chose to translate it as “jetsam” since the idea of being discarded intentionally seemed to fit the theme of the song better.

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
 

My Heart

My pilot when I fly,
Sunshine at the zenith.
Maroon here in the gray,
last note in the song.
My prayer when I believe,
and faith when I trust.
Soft down when I fall
and only you catch me
 
Because my heart says “Yes,”
and my heart says “No,”
and my heart says “Don't go yet,
don't leave me back here in the ice.”
 
Because my heart says “Yes,”
and my heart says “No,”
and my heart says “Don't go yet,
don't go yet.”
 
My loss when I'm shy,
Jackpot when I play.
Reservoir, dam and flood,
on the downhill to the goal.
Warm hands when I'm freezing,
last bullet in the barrel.
Just a step away from the abyss,
Yes, only you hold me back.
 
Because my heart says “Yes,”
and my heart says “No,”
and my heart says “Don't go yet,
don't leave me back here in the ice.”
 
Because my heart says “Yes,”
and my heart says “No,”
and my heart says “Don't go yet,
don't go yet.”
 
Just a step away from the abyss,
and only you hold me back.
 
Because my heart says “Yes,”
and my heart says “No,”
and my heart says “Don't go yet,
don't leave me back here in the ice.”
 
Because my heart says “Yes,”
and my heart says “No,”
and my heart says “Don't go yet,
don't go yet.”
 

I Want to Live

Whoever understands power will not break away from this world
Whoever cheats it, it will blow up in their face
Everyone goes eventually, either lying in bed
Or in the dirt, then it's too late to turn things back
 
Nothing happens by accident
I want to live!
I want to live!
I want to live!
 
I've seen sorrow a thousand times
No one will rise again
 
Speaking becomes a burden in the absence of words
Escalated hate, when man tortures man
Doesn't anyone want to get out of this power struggle?
Then there's war with new sacrificial bowls!
 
Nothing happens by accident
I want to live!
I want to live!
I want to live!
 
I've seen sorrow a thousand times
No one will rise again
[5x]
 
Nothing happens by accident
I want to live! (I've seen sorrow a thousand times)
I want to live! (No one will rise again)
I want to live! (I've seen sorrow a thousand times)
 

Life and Death

The anger, it screams, nervously released
Life and death
The brain of power remains ever awake
Life and death
 
Take the sword in your hands, my friend
We are strong through the pains
Don't hold back the tears of fear
There are candles on the grave
 
Forgive me, my hero, that is the world
Life and death
It pleads, a child, crying in the wind
Life and death
 
Take the sword in your hands, my friend
We are strong through the pains
Don't hold back the tears of fear
There are candles on the grave
 
[Instrumental]
 
Take the sword in your hands, my friend
We are strong through the pains
Don't hold back the tears of fear
There are candles on the grave
[3x]
 
There are candles on the grave
 

Quo Vadis

Stormy time, icy wind
My gaze focused forward
though I don't know where
The world is still turning
though it seems to me that it's turning back
 
Show me the way, without a goal
I'm searching for your heart
I want too much
The world is still turning and so much makes sense
But I ask myself
I ask myself, where is it going?
 
Quo vadis?1
 
Man and machine, work and pay
Love creates people, daughter and son
We're in this world,
do we need to understand life?
 
Bend the steel, melt the stone
You give of yourself and are not alone
The world is still turning there, alone
But I ask myself,
I ask myself, where is it going?
 
Quo vadis?
 
Faith, sin, love, hate
What doesn't yet fit will be made to fit
 
Quo vadis?
 
Quo vadis?
 
And I ask myself,
I ask myself, where is it going?
 
Quo vadis?
 
Where is it going?
Where is it going?
 

• 1. Latin for “Where are you going?”

Ice and Snow

Deep in winter, deep in the lake
rests the soul of the fairy godmother
The many enemies are necessary
Make them lonely,
and it seems as if she were dead
 
All the people make her afraid,
slamming the doors wherever she stands
They transpire with loud rage
Just because they think she's not good
 
Ice and snow, wild and beautiful
Come to me, Snow Queen1
 
They want to be better than all the others,
dominating the whole world
and wandering in souls
Manipulating, wherever possible,
celebrating the power of evil
until no one lives anymore
 
Ice and snow, wild and beautiful
Come to me, Snow Queen
 

• 1. ”Die Schneekönigin” (“The Snow Queen”) is a fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen.

Goldrush

When the fear ever swirls within you
When courage spreads its wings
The spirit seems to have lost its bearings
Hope gives way to grief
Only time stops the tears until you wake anew
 
When your goal loses all life
The goldrush of love still irritates you
in the deepest cave
 
You for you, everyone for themselves
Hard like stone, just like you want to be
Speak with me, I with you
Friends stand before your door
When you go, it doesn't stop,
it still hurts so much
 
When your goal loses all life
The goldrush of love still irritates you
When your goal loses all life
The goldrush of love still irritates you
in the deepest cave
 

Jeanny

Jeanny, come, come on
Get up – please,
you're getting soaked
It's late already, come on – we have to get out of here,
out of the woods
Don't you understand?
 
Where's your shoe?
You must have lost it
when I had to show you the way here
Who lost it?
You, yourself? I, myself?
Or, or we did? Us?
 
Jeanny, quit livin' on dreams
Jeanny, life is not what it seems
Such a lonely little girl in a cold, cold world
There's someone who needs you!
Jeanny, quit livin' on dreams
Jeanny, life is not what it seems
You're lost in the night, don't wanna struggle and fight
There's someone who needs you!
Jeanny
 
It's cold,
we have to get out of here, come on
Your lipstick is smeared
You bought it
and I saw it
Too much red on your lips
And you said, “Don't hit on me!”
But I saw through you
Eyes say more than words
You need me though, hmh?
Everyone knows we'll be together from now on
I hear them now!
They're coming!
They're coming to get you
They won't find you
No one will find you,
you're with me!
 
Jeanny, quit livin' on dreams
Jeanny, life is not what it seems
Such a lonely little girl in a cold, cold world
There's someone who needs you!
Jeanny, quit livin' on dreams
Jeanny, life is not what it seems
You're lost in the night, don't wanna struggle and fight
There's someone who needs you!
Jeanny

Someone who needs you
Someone who needs you

Oh Jeanny
You're lost in the night, don't wanna struggle and fight
There's someone, someone who needs you!
 
Jeanny, quit livin' on dreams

Agony

Constantly running into walls
because your heart won't make mention of me
I lie awake in my tears
throughout the night,
throughout the day
 
The narrow island of my hope
lies in the vast ocean
Will it soon sink into the sea?
What a torture, what a torture
 
Wild euphoria, desolate agony
Wild euphoria, desolate agony
 
Thoughts float in the clouds
Longing makes life so difficult
You deprive me of your warmth
You're not there, you're not there
I don't get any news
It makes my life empty
No matter what I even do,
I can't reach you anymore
 
Wild euphoria, desolate agony
Wild euphoria, desolate agony
 
I can't reach you anymore
 
Wild euphoria, desolate agony
Wild euphoria, desolate agony
 

What You Stand For

Where you are, where you've been,
The day shines, the night sings
I'm with you, there for you,
our world seems so clear
 
And though longing sometimes tortures us so much
And happiness wants even more
 
What you stand for, what you live for
What you strive for, where you're going
What you stand for, what you live for
 
Come to me on my raft,
depart with me at last
Fate beckons with a white cloth,
my life is a test run
 
And though longing sometimes tortures us so much
And happiness wants even more
 
What you stand for, what you live for
What you strive for, where you're going
What you stand for, what you live for
 
And though longing sometimes tortures us so much
And happiness wants even more
 
What you stand for, what you live for
What you strive for, where you're going (x3)
 

One Thousand Souls

One thousand souls rest deep within you
Sometimes you can feel them,
So wondrous and heavy
One thousand souls
 
You fight in the storm
And the earth stands still
You're not afraid to go through the flames
You remain persistent
like sapphires in the embers
One thousand souls
carry you through the flood
through the flood
 
One thousand souls
They offer strength and give courage
in the vast sea of love and anger
 
You fight in the storm
And the earth stands still
You're not afraid to go through the flames
You remain persistent
like sapphires in the embers
One thousand souls
carry you through the flood
through the flood
 
Upright and proud, you ascend
Fathered by fire, born out of ashes
 
One thousand souls
 
You fight in the storm
and the earth stands still
You're not afraid to go through the flames
You remain persistent
like sapphires in the embers
One thousand souls
carry you through the flood
through the flood
 
One thousand souls
carry you through the flood
through the flood
 

See You Again Somewhere Else

The cloud bank carried grief and no birds sang
Snowflakes fell silently in the dull January light
The emptiness came much too early
and the miracles much too late
You froze your most beautiful smile
for your very last path
 
And I write to you
See you again somewhere else
with all the tears and the pain
on a stone
 
Yes, I write to you
See you again somewhere else
We let go and leave
and return home
and return home
 
The flags fly at half-staff and the rain hums his song
The question of meaning, which makes no sense
I look for your name, but it's missing from the wall here
I stand in the garden of remembrance and it comes to me slowly
 
And I write to you
See you again somewhere else
with all the tears and the pain
on a stone
 
Yes, I write to you
See you again somewhere else
We let go and leave
and return home
 
Yes, I write to you
See you again somewhere else
with all the tears and the pain
on a stone
 
Yes, I write to you
See you again somewhere else
We let go and leave
and return home
and return home
 
See you again somewhere else (x4)
 

When Winter Comes

When winter comes and crystals bloom
the gleam is guarded by the moonlight at night
by the moon, the moon
 
And the darkness wears her white dress
when the ground freezes and loses its life
on time, on time
 
Cry into the wind with bliss
Cry freely, like a child
 
In the wintertime, my heart becomes so light
and it also becomes so heavy,
I miss it so much
How it was, how it once was
 
Under candlelight, I was never alone
Some cried quietly, united for hours
Like never before, never before
 
Cry into the wind with bliss
Cry freely, like a child (x2)
 

Lord of the Mountains

Storms, storms, again and again
Wood bursts everywhere
Lightning, lightning, again and again
Thunder sweeps through the valley
Rocks, rocks, again and again
Release themselves from the steep wall
Screams, screams, again and again
Rübezahl 1visits the country
 
For so many years, he was never seen
He is the Lord of the Mountains, wild and spoiled
 
People, many, many people
Some meet his rage
Magic, deep, deep magic
Transforming himself does him good
 
For so many years, he was never seen
He is the Lord of the Mountains, wild and spoiled (x3)
 
Earth, deep inside this Earth
Ghostride2 to the center
Homeland, this is his homeland
That makes our life colorful
 
Storms, storms, lightning, lightning,
Rocks, rocks, screams, screams
 

• 1. Rübezahl is a mountain spirit from European folklore and is often depicted as a man with a long white beard.
• 2. The term Geisterfahrt means to be driving the wrong way, so Rübezahl is driving the wrong way to the center of the earth.
