Babelfisk [English translation]

I waited for you to come, but you didn't come

Think I'm done waiting in a moment

You say it's fine, but we should have an interpreter

If I may not hold you, I'm kept awake1

If only it would clear now

We're chasing better, but it's still just fine, you

A broken promise, that's what we have to go with

Should be good, but it's still just promising

They can see it - it looks like another chance

You say, I think too much about what others see

It would be great if you hit me here

You say it mustn't happen every time it happens

It feels nice, it's a trick you can

Even if everything you say is really ugly

I wish I could leave it alone

Don't bother, it fills everything, but it's already happened

The darkness falls, time stops

There's nothing I need to do

The night is waning, I say to myself:

"What can it be, you want?"

Stars fall down, the light stays on

For an eternity

Tears on my cheek, slowly drying

Now we take it again

We were to go all the way around, now we are all the way

As if there must not be mistake, it's maybe the mistake

We've been there too long, it's too far

Say, I'm thinking too much, I've been thinking the same

Everything feels ugly when it's mixed with a lie

We're too far out to go in the water on a lie

Before it was fresh, now your face is lazy

Don't bother being awake but I can't sleep

The dream of being two ends by one

I remember when you said I'd soon forget it all

But I hope there will be more

Have seen a lot, but have never seen like that, like that (like that)

Hard past, now I'm softened

But it's too difficult to enjoy life in an emergency lane

Everything I counted on, I see it fall

I think I'm counting the wrong numbers - it's wrong

The darkness falls, time stops

There's nothing I need to do

The night is waning, I say to myself:

"What can it be, you want?"

Stars fall down, the light stays on

For an eternity

Tears on my cheek, slowly drying

Now we take it again
