Warum [English translation]

You said it would only be for a short time

Yet it has already been an eternity

[You] said that he wouldn't stay away from us for long

Yet I have no more tears

Was it all only lies

Was it just a play for time

Everything only lies

And one question remains

Say, say, say

Why

Is Papa not here any more

Is nothing like it once was

Why

Did you say nothing to me

Did you never ask me

Say why

Why is he not staying here

Please bring him back here

I would so like to laugh again

For I feel so empty

You said I should be a big boy

Yet I always didn't matter to you

[You] Said that everything would be better with time

And I ask myself once more

Was it all only lies

Was it just a play for time

Everything only lies

And one question remains

Say, say, say

Why

Is Papa not here any more

Is nothing like it once was

Why

Did you say nothing to me

Did you never ask me

Say why

Why is he not staying here

Please bring him back here

I would so like to laugh again

For I feel so empty

Why

Why

Why

I feel pretty shit, man

Feels that way now

Why

Yes, why

Why

Why do we not simply start again from the beginning

Why

Is Papa not here any more

Is nothing like it once was

Why

Did you say nothing to me

Did you never ask me

Say why

Why is he not staying here

Please bring him back here

I would so like to laugh again

For I feel so empty
