Lieber Gott [English translation]

What I see, I imbibe

And give all of you the reflection

I see the way of the world clearly

I want to be good, and yet must be evil

I want to drink in joy

I'll inhale your love

The world makes me sink into darkness

I'll always be lonely

I want to have someone

Who genuinely loves me

I see a dead body

that lies bleeding in the street

I want to have someone

Who genuinely loves me

I see a dead body

that lies bleeding in the street

Dear God,

Harden me1 for this world

And kill this mind that tortures me

Dear God,

Why do you make me see this misery,

And why won't you make my pain go away?

Dear God

A cold feeling in your hand

A smile that no longer warms me

Although I've already endured it a thousand times,

I haven't learned anything new

In a hundred different ways,

I've experienced the suffering

Created by a humanity

That stands at the edge of the abyss

I still believe in the world,

Which endlessly turns,

And in a love that remains for me

No matter what happens

I still believe in the world,

Which endlessly turns,

And in a love that remains for me

No matter what happens

Dear God,

Harden me for this world

And kill this mind that tortures me

Dear God,

Why do you make me see this misery,

And why won't you make my pain go away?

Dear God,

Harden me for this world

And kill this mind that tortures me

Dear God,

Why do you make me see this misery,

And why won't you make my pain go away?

Dear God

1. Literally "make me hard," but in English that would mean he's asking God for an erection.
