Ich bin wie ich bin [English translation]

My ears work well, people talk much

I can hear what they talk

It seems that everyone knows exactly

What is missing in my life

I always thought I try to please everyone

Now I realize that this is impossible

When hundreds of people want hundreds of different things

You start spinning around

I start spinning around...

And I am how I am searching for sense

I'm alone here with myself

Close my eyes and sit down

If power breaks down I play piano

And I am how I am and I fly somewhere

I'm here in the dark with myself

Close my eyes and look inside

If power breaks down I play piano

If power breaks down I play piano

Sometimes I am not able to get along

My shoulders heavy as lead

Then I dance with the moon and sleep in sunshine

But it will pass

The following day I embrace the whole world

I take you with me and invite you

Actually I like to have you by my side

And sometimes I like to be alone

Sometimes I like to be alone too...

And I am how I am searching for sense

I'm alone here with myself

Close my eyes and sit down

If power breaks down I play piano

And I am how I am and I fly somewhere

I'm here in the dark with myself

Close my eyes and look inside

If power breaks down I play piano

If power breaks down I play piano

I run through the rain, longing for palm trees

Didn't see the sun for so long

But as long as the stars don't fall off the sky

It is not time to go

There is not the time to go yet...

And I am how I am searching for sense

I'm alone here with myself

Close my eyes and sit down

If power breaks down I play piano

And I am how I am and I fly somewhere

I'm here in the dark with myself

Close my eyes and look inside

If power breaks down I play piano

If power breaks down I play piano

If power breaks down I play piano
