Das sind wir [English translation]

We wear our shadows as a second skin,

Full of bullet holes, scars,

Well covert in grey.

Stitched medals gleam obsoletely.

But winning and losing,

Both part of us.

'Cause in every crack that stays,

There's a bit of eternity

Because we are future and memory.

And somewhere in between,

We are singin' to the beat of music for nights

With tears in our eyes

But with a laughing face.

Oh, this is us,

Winners and losers

Unified in ourselves at the same time.

It tears us again and again,

A mosaic of thousand pieces,

All bricks become one,

Kaleidoscope with a thousand colours.

So often hard to understand.

But this is us.

Oh, oh, this is us.

We cast dark shadows

for miles ahead,

But in our dreams,

We paint them golden.

Celebrating the victories,

Blackening memories.

But our yesterday, our tomorrow,

Both part of us.

And the elation fades,

but a bit of luck remains,

Because we are future and memory.

And somewhere in between,

We are singin' to the beat of music for nights

With tears in our eyes

But with a laughing face.

Oh, this is us,

Winners and losers

Unified in ourselves at the same time.

It tears us again and again,

A mosaic of thousand pieces,

All bricks become one,

Kaleidoscope with a thousand colours.

So often hard to understand.

But this is us.

We often only know right or wrong,

This is us.

Aren't we everything at the same time?

This is us.

And things are moving almost endlessly.

Took so long to understand.

This is us,

Oh, this is us,

Oh, this is us.

A mosaic of thousand pieces,

Oh, this is us,

Kaleidoscope with a thousand colours.

Oh, this is us.

A mosaic of thousand pieces,

Oh, this is us,

Kaleidoscope with a thousand colours.

Oh, this is…
