Das Leichteste der Welt [English translation]

I heard the sun has come back into your life.

I heard you feel free and learned to laugh again.

I heard that I'm merely a chapter of your past now,

And that leaving was the best thing you could've done.

I saw your heart belongs to someone else now,

You moved on quickly despite saying you wanted time alone.

In the photos I come across, you’re both beaming,

You look so annoyingly happy.

And I, I can't sleep at night

Without the pill bottle.

And you, you have both feet planted firmly on the ground in your new life,

Your sights set straight forward, as though it's the easiest thing in the world.

According to everything I hear, you live a fabled life now.

Searching for a house on the ocean, with kids… wasn’t that our plan?

Whereas my flag is stuck at half-staff, I can't seem to get my head out of the sand.

I’m miles away from feeling distanced.

And I, I can't sleep at night

Without the pill bottle.

And you, you have both feet planted firmly on the ground in your new life.

Your sights set straight forward, as though it's the easiest thing in the world.

But what breaks my heart the most

Is seeing how happy you are now.

And the bitter realization that we've reached zero, there's nothing left,

And every day and every year

Was for nothing, a waste of time, what a waste of time.

Maybe one day I'll be able to sleep again

Without the pill bottle.

And maybe somewhere out there is another life for me,

But to imagine that is currently the hardest thing in the world.

And I, I can't sleep at night

Without the pill bottle.

And you, you have both feet planted firmly on the ground in your new life,

Your sights set straight forward, as though it's the easiest thing in the world.
