Von jetzt an [English translation]

My reflection looks at me all crumpled

And asks me when it's my turn

Too loud, too fast, too far, never enough time

I want to go straight, but run in a circle

I want everything in color, but see in black and white

A look, a word, a move would be good enough

I've asked myself a lot: Is it my fault

That I'd prefer to be somewhere else, just not here?

I've told myself a thousand times there's so much more

There's so much more, oh, oh, oh

From now on, I'm only letting light into my world

There's no one who can hold me down

Quantum leap into a new orbit, oh, oh, oh

From now on, I'll turn the hands1 however I want

I'll throw all my old clothes in the trash

I'll write it on every wall because I can, oh, oh, oh

From now on

Can anyone explain where the error is

When the floor shifts beneath me?

A little bit, forwards and back, I can hardly keep up

I've asked myself a lot: Is it my fault

That'd I'd prefer to be someone else, someone like her?

But I've told myself a thousand times there's so much more

There's so much more, oh, oh, oh

From now on, I'm only letting light into my world

No one else is gonna hold me down

Quantum leap into a new orbit, oh, oh, oh

From now on, I'll turn the hands however I want

I'll throw all my old clothes in the trash

I'll write it on every wall because I can, oh, oh, oh

From now on

I won't play hide and seek anymore

I won't distort myself, I won't think about it

I'll try it again later, and not even then, no, I won't think about it

I'll scream it as loud as I can

From now on, I'm only letting light into my world

No one else is gonna hold me down

Quantum leap into a new orbit, oh, oh, oh

From now on, I'll turn the hands however I want

I'll throw all my old clothes in the trash

I'll write it on every wall because I can, oh, oh, oh

From now on

From now on
