KopfÜber [English translation]

Knees made of paper

I go away from here

Lost district

I leave you behind me

All seen in no man’s land

Reversed again - it burned beautifully

My place will be vacant

Now I need more happiness than sanity

We said that it’s all predetermined?

If that’s so then why don’t I know where I’m going?

I take my heart in my hand and jump

Cold water

Overhead

A resounding chorus

And it’s nothing like beforehand

Seven seas

Seven bridges, seven senses

And what a view

There and back again

Tingling in my skin

Highway in my gut

Everything in me, loud

Soul roughed up

Daring step to a new land

I’ll be a debutant* again

Everything maddeningly interesting

Everything a rough diamond

Who said that this is all a children’s game?

If that’s so then why do so many avoid it?

I take my heart in my hand and jump

Cold water

Overhead

A resounding chorus

And it’s nothing like beforehand

Seven seas

Seven bridges, seven senses

And what a view

There and back again

Who said I have to stay right where I am?

Is it all an accident or does it have meaning?

That I want to get away from here, but I still don’t know to where

Out of the gap between ending and beginning

So I can feel that I’m still alive

And discover all my paths to me

I take my heart in my hand and jump

Cold water

Overhead

A resounding chorus

And it’s nothing like beforehand

Seven seas

Seven bridges, seven senses

And what a view

There and back again
