Nous [English translation]

„Us” is an illusion that is dying

Because of a laughter straight into my heart,

A story about nothing at all

Just like so many other stories.

Our love that we thought to be small

Has grown while you were away

Has grown like a rupture,

Like a wound.

(Chorus)

But why (why)

Why (why)

Why (why)

Why this silence?

Why (why)

Why (why)

Why (why)

Why this great emptiness when I think about us

It was like time defiance,

Spring before spring,

A road that leads to no matter where

But sowed with roses everywhere.

„Us” is an illusion that is dying

Because of a laughter straight into my heart,

It’s the end of the first love,

My life that’s calling for help.

I dream and I break out:

(Chorus)

It’s a cry tore out from the sky,

A ray that’s missing from the sun,

Four letters drive me insane,

And in your oblivion you couldn’t care less,

You couldn’t care less.

I’m alone at all our dates,

But sometimes in my unclear dreams

A voice from I don’t know where

Speaks to me about hope and us.

„Us” is an illusion that is dying

Because of a laughter straight into my heart,

It’s the end of the first love,

My life that’s calling for help.
