Schlafen gehen [English translation]

Lipstick on the gravestone

Shards in the fur

Anytime a dream explodes

Shards fly into your Now

When thoughts are only made of electricity

Love only snow

Where does the phantom pain come from?

Why does it hurt so much?

I'm not going to sleep today

I'm perfecting big plans

I write on a helmet and a shot of gasoline

And shoot myself off into space

I won't go to sleep tonight

I'm throwing my weapons away

I'm gonna pull

the spear out of my back

And then walk out

into space

Silence would be golden right now

But

You all are talking about money

I'm throwing all my coins into the well

and wish the world

happiness

I'm flying far, far away

The world is vanishing from sight

All the headlines melt like little chocolates

Blot by blot

The manhole cover drinks all the dirt

You all wake up

And I'm gone

I'm not going to sleep today

I'm perfecting big plans

I write on a helmet and a shot of gasoline

And shoot myself off into space

I want to see stars

I'm gonna pull the spear out of my back

And then walk out

into space

Out into space

The world's getting cold

A dead torch

The world's getting cold
