Das Kaputtgehen [English translation]

I refuse to sink down,

because if I did, I'd run the risk of sinking too deeply

I sink like a stone in a well

Until I reach rock bottom

I sink right down to the ground

I'd have to cry by the bucketful

To float to the top

That's why I just keep to myself

I sink down far too deeply into any kind of emotion

Either I feel out of control or I feel far too much

And that's why I break things into pieces

I break things into pieces

You can't lose something that isn't there

And that's why I break things into pieces

I break things into pieces

Around me lie piles of waste and debris

I don't let anyone come near me

because if I did, I'd run the risk

Of being touched

I simply close myself off, bolt the door

And bend the key out of shape

I'd have to cry by the bucketful

To float to the top

That's why I just keep to myself

I sink down far too deeply into any kind of emotion

Either I feel out of control or I feel far too much

And that's why I break things into pieces

I break things into pieces

You can't lose something that isn't there

And that's why I break things into pieces

I break things into pieces

Around me lie piles of waste and debris
