Wende der Zeit [English translation]
Wende der Zeit [English translation]
At the place where you’re feet are at
Lies the turning point of time
It will warm past winter;
then reverse another time
Past New Year’s Eve, a new year’s born
Your alarm clock tells you
when to get up in the morn
The wine glass – when to go to sleep
The garbage man picks up your letters
one time per week
Every Wednesday morning - at 10
Sole happiness doesn’t know time
That point in time knows neither good nor bad
There where your feet are at
The turning of time begins
There where old and new converge
You stand there - at the center - of time
You search and search until you can’t
see straight anymore
And your summer dress hangs
outside on the porch ¹
Time heals actually nothing
If your self-worth is gone
You decide - at changing tide
The world is so transparent
and so crystal clear
Everything runs according to plan
Past the ebb the tide comes in
If it goes wrong
The levee breaks
And your world will shake
Sole happiness doesn’t know when
That point in time knows neither good nor bad
There where your feet are at
The turning of time begins
There where old and new converge
You stand there - at the epicenter
You stand there - at the epicenter - of time
You lag so far behind,
you’re getting so obsolete
48 hours without sleep
The best view is in the mornings
when the house wakes up
And the morning wind – takes it out of you
And when you buy your coffee
at the bakery
With a bad mood and bad hair to boot
Then you find that you look
so honest in some way
Don’t sweat it,
it comes anyway
Sole happiness doesn’t know when
That point in time knows neither good nor bad
Here where your feet are at
The tide begins to turn
There where old and new converge
You stand there - at the epicenter - of time
