500 Letters [German translation]

500 letters from a stranger at my door

500 letters, words like scars no one can see

It felt so innocent, a childish game

Lines of poetry without a name

Waves of paranoia washed upon the page

And soon obsession turned to rage

Why do you love me?

Why do you want to hurt me?

500 letters from a stranger at my door

500 weapons I can't take it anymore

500 letters, words like scars no one can see

500 secrets, slowly killing me

At the mercy of a violent hand

Drawing images in my head

I can't escape the way I feel inside

In every shadow just a breath behind

Why do you love me?

Why do you want to hurt me?

They found the final letter lying by his side

A smile was on his face, cold as ice

One last message written only for me

Now you won't forget

"I'll see you in your dreams"
