Laura [English translation]
After dawn, came the day 1
At night we were bluer than the colour itself 2
Now everything is monochrome
Hhumans are electric
Since you're gone I am powerless
It's true, at the end there will only be scars
The pain gets smaller and bigger at different times of the year
Some day I'm going to step on its stretcher
You are and will always be my big question mark
When you shouted at me I should piss off
When I shouted at you, so anti "What's up?!"
When you threw the telephone
The telephone crashed in slow motion against my temple
When blood dripped from my forehead to the floor
I left, in the evening I got so wasted
We loved each other in the wreckage of our laptop
From this conflict, to shouting follows love
To crying follows a feeling which makes you addicted and sad at the same time
Your smell was my home
Your true lies, your different point of views
Your perspective, sharp Blue which glares at me
Your birth mark on your left bladebone
The things you said to me, which I underwent
The thing I said to you, which you forgave me
The sleeping world of the night used to be our playground
When the sunset light shines in this colour,
Then there's a hole in the air where you stood
Do you here me where you are
Stay exactly where you are, soon I'm also coming
So wait for me
/x2
In the cocoon on the nightly highway
At speed 200 are we completely alone
We are completely safe
The streaks of light are our only witnesses
We are both thinking about the world "Up yours!"
Mutual loneliness, 2 egomaniacs
Two who sleep too little, a melodrama
You have your weaknesses
A small aide which helped you and helped you until you were not yourself anymore
When we met, you used to be four years older
When we broke up, eight, and the city a couple degrees colder
Too much drawn, too much to work somehow
Nutrition for the ego, anabolic for your mental quirks
You slipped away from me
The curse of the black amex
Death in instalments bought with your father's money
I wanted to hold you, but I was too young, was too dumb,
was too proud
We both had a bellyful of her ways
When the sunset light shines in this colour,
Then there's a hole in the air where you stood
Do you here me where you are
Stay exactly where you are, soon I'm also coming
So wait for me
/x2
When my phone rang, with your number
At first I didn't answer
At the third time I cursed and did it though
When someone was on the phone, who asked "Who are you?"
An acquaintance of yours'
He said my number was the last
Which you dialled before the accident
When your father, which I've never met, said
Your car, bridge, multiple times flipped over
Split seconds, no skid marks detectable
Suicide, 10th May, funeral in Munich
Then clicking, silence at noisy ears
That's the way I've frozen in my inner north
How I shouted at myself, how everything tightened
How everybody looks at me accusing since then
I wrote this song x-times for you
x-times I threw it way, never the right words
also this time it's not perfect enough
I'm driving in Tokyo through Shibuya with the last train
In the flickering neonlight
I'm seeing you in the window
I would love to be where my girl is
My icecold angel
How often I tried to push you aside at any costs
Your classical Tiffany silver necklace
Still today I see your shilouette
In a crowd
There's a deep cut where you have been
But something is there
There's not nothing where you have been
There's light where you habe been
A shimmer, a slight one
I can see it, nobody besides me
When your are at the big party
Reserve us the best place
Then we are talking about your last sentence
When you are above,then wait for me in the light
When you are down, then wear you dress with slit
The checks which my mouth has written weren't covered
I have searched but there's nobody that can replace you
And yes, it's right, we both weren't perfect
Too many arguments, too much drama, too much sex
You were my new continent, I discovered you
If I meet you again, then I will never leave
Then I will never leave again
Then I will never leave agaian
never leave again
Then I will never leave again
never leave again.
