Opfer statt Wahrheit [English translation]

Each step is just a moment

A flap of wings in the moth light

(I) am alone

searching for my morning

A pair of lips in the dark?

There in front of me somewhere

where the sun is

hiding from me in the evening

and becomes one with the horizon

My anger laughs bitterly

Tears turned to ice/ by ice petrified tears

Weeping while passing

And people/the humans don't cry

When they see me

My bleeding feet

My anger, that wrinkles

Even time is cheating

I am young and yet

terribly old

(I) am young and yet

terribly old

My mind is longing

for an honest kiss

Just on the cheek

My feet want to run

Shall I tame them with wire?

Where is my morning?

My day after tomorrow?

The fire that won't burn me

The honest kiss

that doesn't just suffocates lust

The shadows follow me

Still accompanying the mind

Infinitely empty

Infinitely difficult

And deadly easy

And what happens

You*1 sacrifice yourself

To me

You*1 sacrifice yourself

To me

Without a kiss

Each step is just a moment

A flap of wings in the moth light

(I) Am alone

searching for my morning

A pair of lips in the dark?
