Genug ist nicht genug [English translation]

No, it can not be an error,

that today the skies are bright and high.

And it's not by chance, for sure,

that the morning lights defeat the haze.

Motionless I'm sitting at my window,

and some market women catch my smile.

Somewhere out there, this pulsation,

and I'm sick of being a decal.

I must rush down to the street,

and then run after young doggies all the time -

Summer's sticking to the houses,

subway shafts are breathing hard!

The belly of this city's swelling,

and I'm ready for the big bang now,

and a smug god on the rooftops

is preaching 'bout frugality.

Enough is not enough,

by no means I'll be fooled.

And silence is a fraud,

enough never can suffice.

Sat around for far too long now,

and the light is steaming 'bove the ground.

Something's got to happen finally,

or something will burst inside me.

That tickle on my tongue,

even the sewage tastes like wine.

I just quickly lick my lips,

then I dive into the busy crowd.

Let's escape tomorrow, and

together we will stand against the wind.

Only ancient gods will perish,

when we're godless in the end.

As diligent as always,

on the first ranks morality is praised,

but my ego's sacrosanct,

I don't care a bit about their fate.

Enough is not enough,

by no means I'll be fooled.

And silence is a fraud,

enough never can suffice.
