Was weißt du schon von mir [English translation]

You think I'm a falcon

Soaring above

An open book - a clear-cut case

The one you're witnessing right now1

Solid as a rock2

Always giving ear to you

A party on a weekday

Your "don't you have any plans for tonight either"

You think I've grown immune

Fortified against your karma

And that you're like a sister to me

You're so wrong

----

[Chorus]

You don't know this guy

Who's laying awake at night

Making heads or tails

Of every word you say3

Every one of his plans only has

Your heart in its sights

What do you know about me anyway?

You don't see any of those tears

Don't see the sad look saying good-bye

On the stairs, suppressed by his pride

Nor how long he remains standing

Outside your door

What do you know about me anyway?

-----

My head is an island

No dream can escape from

Even the slightest touch from you

Hits it like a tsunami

I'm drowning in your eyes

Into which I'm staring incessantly

Thirstily hanging on every word you say

So close to a solution

You think there's no fire burning

Behind my pokerface

And that you know me inside and out

Well, you don't

[Chorus (2x)]

What do you know about me anyway?

1. Or, more figuratively, "(You think) the way I'm acting right now is how I really am".2. Lit. "a reef in your surf", referencing an idiom.3. A pun in the original German where the idiom literally means "to make a rhyme", so the literal translation is "Making a rhyme of every word you say".
