Still stehn [English translation]

I did not wake up today

Since I did not fall asleep

A thought spoils my night

Should this life here be forever

Or is everything just going in circles

Does the desert need to be where water is missing

I cannot go on here

Get no step ahead nor back

That's why I should go further

Simply leave everything alone

And then I leave my city

In which I do not have a place

Try to get the next train

No matter where it goes because I don't want to stand still anymore

I have to go on, not stand still

Now I loosened all my ties

Set the sail, unknown course

Let myself float until the riverside screams

If the mountain does not seek the prophet

The prophet will search for a new way

In one or two years I am there

And then I'll realize that it was right

I cannot go on here

Get no step ahead nor back

That's why I should go further

Simply leave everything alone

And then I leave my city

In which I do not have a place

Try to get the next train

No matter where it goes because I don't want to stand still anymore

I have to go on, not stand still

Stand still, I don't want to stand still any longer

Go away, I want to go on, I am not allowed to stand still

Stand still, I musn't stand still any longer

Go away, I have to get going so as not to stand still

Stand still, I don't want to stand still any longer

Go away, I want to go on, I am not allowed to stand still

Stand still, I musn't stand still any longer

Go away, I have to get going so as not to stand still

It's in my head, I want to go away from here

I never stay longer here, I don't want to stand still

It's in my head, I want to go away from here

I want to go away from here, I want to go away from here

I will leave when everything sleeps

Now I am already on the go

And with time everything will be new

I will not regret later
