Schwarzer Schmetterling: Nekrolog [English translation]

Faded writing on a stone

Hated poison in my being

No black butterfly that flew

No priest spoke the obituary

Do you know who I was and what I am?

I am the black butterfly

Who is swinging with you to heaven

Because you're all I've got

I sing when there's nothing left in you

And I dance on my grave

Feel you so deep and close

Find you, for you are there

Transform you every day

With every new wing stroke

Do you know what you are doing and what you are?

I am the black butterfly

Who is swinging with you to heaven

Because you're all I've got

I sing when there's nothing left in you

And I dance on my grave

Shadows lay over the land

The candle has burnt down

Only a last glimmer remains of the day

I dance and dance and dance for you still

When the house of your soul is in flames

and there is no way out of you

You are helpless for air because of the morning

which comes to you, hindering your breathing every time

When desire stirs and with anxiety

you feel that time is fleeing you like a fog

When you scream like in your mind, in the midst

of thousands, and yet no one sees you

If no one wants you and you live

in the exile of your own hopeless world

Every friendly hand has been banished for a long time,

the pain overcomes you, let me go

Do you finally know who I am?

I am the black butterfly

Who is swinging with you to heaven

Because you're all I've got

I sing when there's nothing left in you

And I dance on my grave

And I dance on my grave

And I dance on my grave
