Rücken an Rücken [English translation]

Loving children, watch out

That no one does this with you

Hearts' fire, adventures are so easily inflamed

Excessively wonderfully ravenous, drained and awoken

You strive with all your strength to fight off with bare hands

Digging, pouring, digging, pouring, into the deep battle of souls

Through time and space I hear you call

Through the endlessly gray day

That we fought against and yet created,

That I succumbed to a thousandfold

You1 can never embrace yourself again

Even if you're freezing

But life shows no pity

If you risk it anyway

Back to back

When you fight often so that it'll go on

Back to back

When you know yourself by heart and yet don't understand a word

Back to back

How can you look yourself in the eye

Back to back

And, as long as you can, forgive and then go

Out of free will?

Our breath floats into the emptiness

And the kiss remains only thought of

Because I turn my back to you

Ready for a new battle

How I hunger for your eyes!

Fill my vacuum!

Even if I lose my grip

Please turn around!

Back to back

When you fight often so that it'll go on

Back to back

When you know yourself by heart and yet don't understand a word

Back to back

How can you look yourself in the eye

Back to back

And, as long as you can, forgive and then go

Out of free will?

The rescue plan, I came to get you

Just as I promised

We stole the world

Even if the storm raged

From the frying pan into fire2

We fled, thought it could work out

Ran away hand in hand

And from then on we have stood...

Back to back

When you fight often so that it'll go on

Back to back

When you know yourself by heart and yet don't understand a word

Back to back

How can you look yourself in the eye

Back to back

And, as long as you can, forgive and then go

Out of free will?
