Tagebuch [English translation]

[1]

I make a note, this is something like diary

For many years I've been looking for a good plan

Something like a friend who says: "This is the right way, I know the route"

I've got to move forward, I've been going in circles for too long

I swore we could make it if we wanted to

In the shadow of the buildings I see how the rats are pursuing me

But i don't let them fool me, no

When the night breaks in and the clouds cry

You better don't trust anyone except your friends

Get involved with the devil and you'll see

That doing evil doesn't pay off, because the devil crucifies you

He gives you Euro and Gold but holds the dagger to your throat

Because in exchange for gold the devil wants your soul

Blended by their success, many people become to proud of theirselves in order to change

We obey and observe the commands

One shouldn't waste his life time

And rethink every day from anew what you want and why

[Hook]

I've seen how it is at the top

Seen how it is at the bottom

And maybe the next step has to be a step backwards

Because I can't be happy like this, not without you

I've seen how it is at the top

Seen hot it is to be lost

I am sorry but I'll go the last bit on my own

Even though I know I won't be happy

6x "not without you"

I make a note, this is something like a diary

For many years I've been looking for a good plan

God be my witness, my dreams, I bury them now

Everyday, just a cinema in my head, stop this Dataflow

I taste the Smog in my hood with every breath I take

For many there is not only hope, what do you expect?

The devil comes and is tempting you

When you are looking for colour somewhere in your black and white life

And because at some point in time even the most beautiful rose fades

I live my life isolated from the outside world

In the shadow of the buildings, when you are cold and your house falls into ruin

You're worth nothing and you die for a bunch of money

The way down is fast, I don't need this cash

I don't see the wonders of this world without you

And what I'm saying might seem crazy

But without you I can't be happy, not without you

[Hook]

And even if you can't understand it with your heart

I have scars that you can't see on first sight

Scars that are still open, I have questions that are open (unanswered)

And even if I've been hoping for years

And even if you can't understand it with your heart

I have scars that you can't see on first sight

Scars that life gives to you and I ask myself every night

How I managed to live like this for years
