Du Nimmst Mir Die Angst [English translation]

My visor is foggy

Head and collar 1 are asking me every day how I feel

I say nothing, close my eyes, take a breath, count to ten

Breathe out, open my eyes

How am I supposed to feel?

I have feeble arms, the gun is so heavy

They're shooting with live ammunition everywhere, but my magazine is empty

Champagne for those who keep the enemy at bay

The chess play is a power game, the whole world a battlefield

But if the worst comes to the worst

My legs won't get weak anymore

Because I'm finally getting along again

Because no doubts are creeping up on me,

That the getaway car will come to me

One phone call to you is all it takes

You take my fear away, you take my fear away

My blue light, my alarm, my ambulance

You take my fear away, you take my fear away

Not all of it, but as much as you can carry

Only you take my fear away

If I lie awake and the world around me is quiet

Then my pupils make known they want to dilate

To pace out the heights and breadths of the night

Those are sleepless times

You take my fear away

Drugs and pills cannot calm me

Cardiologists have nothing to help me

Only you take my fear away

And if the worst comes to the worst

My legs won't get weak anymore

You went to the extremes

And reached my core

You take my fear away
