Des Königs Henker [English translation]

I'm tired of the dead

Doomed

No fame and no honour

Pay for all the suffering

I don't want to die

But I've lived enough

I don't know where it'll end

I don't know how it'll go on

My word condemns to death

My trade brings death

Will never give life

Spreads no charity

I'm a supplier of hell

Denies the kingdom of heaven

Before God and before the executioner

All men are equal

I'm the king's executioner

Lie on the scaffold myself

I'm a henchman of the devil

But I'm playing god

I'm the king's executioner

My hand holds the guillotine

Damned to live death

My salvation is forfeited

I dance between death and life

Lacking any love

I only think of the hours

I counted together with you

To me you are the sun

That'll never shine for me again

I only feel the cold now

I never cried for you

I'm the king's executioner

Lie on the scaffold myself

I'm a henchman of the devil

But I'm playing god

I'm the king's executioner

My hand holds the guillotine

Damend to live death

My salvation is forfeited

I'm the king's executioner

I'm the king's executioner

Lie on the scaffold myself

I'm a henchman of the devil

But I'm playing god

I'm the king's executioner

My hand holds the guillotine

Damend to live death

My salvation is forfeited
