Sylvian [English translation]

And you ask me how it goes,

but you don't see reality

as it is.

Perhaps you

never understood—

perhaps look

elsewhere now.

And then you sit here with me,

but you don't see what's there

right in front of you.

How much neglect there is,

how little truth.

To go on in this way—

tell me what sense it makes.

And it's you

whom time never changes.

Always you—

you're breaking my heart, you know,

you're breaking my heart—do you know that?

I no longer want—I no longer want to flee.

I no longer want—I no longer want to flee.

Perhaps you

never understood—

perhaps also look

elsewhere now.

And it's you

whom time never changes.

Always you—

you're breaking my heart, you know,

you're breaking my heart—do you know that?

I no longer want—I no longer want to flee.

I no longer want—I no longer want to flee.

I no longer want—I no longer want to flee...
