Wir sind am Leben English translation
von Rosenstolz

Have you tried everything?
Did you have a go at everything?
Have you done all you can?
If not, get going!

Have you really lived?
Did you world really spin?
Have you done all you can?
If not, get going!

What do you want to say?
Who do you want to ask?
What do you want to experience
and what will you give for it?
Who gives you peace
and what fell by the wayside?


I can hear your heartbeat
Nobody will destroy you
You are alive
You are alive
Because your heart still catches fire
Because your heart still knows love
You are alive
You are alive

What do you want to believe in
or do you believe in yourself?
How often are you being betrayed?
How often do you lie to yourself?
How many doors will you open?
What locks won't you ever pick?
How often can you resist
and when do you crumble?

Why will you cry
and how often will you stay silent?
And whom will you pray for,
do you even know why?
And with whom will you rest
and who do you run away from?


I can hear your heartbeat
Nobody will destroy you
You are alive
You are alive
Because your heart still catches fire
Because your heart still knows love
You are alive
You are alive

Oh oh oh...

And have you lost your way,
I'm there, will take you home.

I can hear your heartbeat
Nobody will destroy you
You are alive
You are alive

Oh oh oh

We are alive
We are alive

I can hear your heartbeat
Nobody will destroy us
We are alive
We are alive
Because our heart catches fire
Because our heart knows love
We are alive
We are alive
