Asyl im Paradies [English translation]

My inner clock fell asleep,

I’m hanging loose in time.

A storm has driven me out,

To the sea of eternity.

Give me asylum here in paradise,

Here no one can do anything to me.

Give me asylum here in paradise,

Just that moment to rest.

Out there lurk your hands,

And pull me to the ground.

I sink, I sink, and drown

In your warm mouth.

Give me asylum...

Do you hear them calling? They come for me.

Do you see the fires there on the beach,

Tell them, no power on earth,

Can get me back to shore.

Give me asylum...
