Der erste Tag [English translation]

Nothing I have said

Nor have I ever done anything

This is the first day

You resound me with consternation

And cover me up with darkness

I don't want to love you

Nor can I live without you

Death is shining in your eyes

Your arrogance - blind anger

You spit deep into my face

And by that never see myself

Death is shining in your eyes

Your arrogance - blind anger

You spit the blood

The stab hits me

In your eyes you and I

The harshness of unity

Alone it remains unattained

With all that noise and shouting

You are never without a leader

So I am at the mercy of your hate

Of yours and of those

Whose closeness I forgot
