Auf Sand gebaut [English translation]

[ Verse I: ]

Water keeps falling again and again

At the town

And they don’t listen to my warning

And they don’t see my tears

Due to the rain in their face

And they don’t believe me

Nothing but violence, nothing but lies and distress

When the rains come, the horizon turns into red

The water of this world has already been there long before us

And it will still be there when the last of us freezes somewhere

It will be in the clouds, it will be in the lake

It will rain, it will foam, snow will fall gently

The sea starts to roar, waves become whiteness and boiling

The first fish come ashore

[ Chorus: ]

Tell me, where do you want to go when the rain falls

And the country is sinking in the mud?

What do you want to do when the whole world is drowning in the eternal tide?

Where do you want to go when no more land remains there

Only water as far as the eye can see?

What do you want to do when you finally know that your world was built on sand?

Your world was built on sand

But you have not seen it

[ Verse II: ]

We sowed dark smoke up into the wind

And reap a storm which solves everything

Even our best technology, no matter how new it is

Is useless if the sky is illuminated

In every compass direction only rain is in sight

The first heavy raindrops start falling against the light

Clouds are gathering on the horizon

No tower is high enough when the flood comes

[Chorus ]

Your world was built on sand

But you have not seen it
