Vom Leben und Verstehen deutsche Übersetzung
von Mikroboy

On Living and Understanding

I've often asked myself
why you like certain times
and not other times
which can almost break you

And looking your own doubt in the face
by blinding-white light
and all the thoughts and the anger
turn into a river
which cuts such a deep channel and flows so quickly
that you can't see the bank any more.

A mixture of memories and dreams
although if I'm honest I can hardly remember.
Which leads to the conclusion that imagination wins,
an overdose of luck at the moment
and if necessary nothing remains
and if necessary nothing remains.


And I was there a long time ago,
I've seen it all before.
For a while now I've not been certain,
what it was actually like over there.

A mixture of memories and dreams
although if I'm honest I can hardly remember.
Which leads to the conclusion that imagination wins,
an overdose of luck at the moment
and if necessary nothing remains
and if necessary nothing remains.

A mixture of memories and dreams
although if I'm honest I can hardly remember.
Which leads to the conclusion that imagination wins,

Because I feel nothing inside any more,
because I've forgotten what I want,
because I've forgotten how to live,
what to fight for, what to strive for.
I've had this feeling for a long time,
that I haven't been real for a long time,
not to mention down to earth
and I'm just living in reverse.


(A mixture of memories and dreams
although if I'm honest I can hardly remember.
Which leads to the conclusion that imagination wins,
an overdose of luck at the moment
and if necessary nothing remains
and if necessary nothing remains.)
