Der Letzte Optimist [English translation]

Nothing is as trist

As an Optimist

With their nose on the asphalt

Saying, "I am not cold,

I'll keep laying here.

I'll keep laying here."

Nothing about this is good

I will learn nothing from this

My heart pumps nothing but blood anymore

And behind these stars

Is nothing but satellite trash

Endlessness and misery

Your friends already left

They didn't know what to do with themselves

A night like this can get rather long, after all

when you can't help, anyways

You're still laying

On the sidewalk in front of their/her house

And yes,

Things aren't looking great for you.

Nothing about this is good

I will learn nothing from this

My heart pumps nothing but blood anymore

And behind these stars

Is nothing but satellite trash

Endlessness and misery

The police left, after all

Nobody likes seeing something like this

A night like this can get rather long, after all

When you can't arrest anyone

And you puke out your heart

into the ditch in front of the house

And yes,

Things aren't looking great for you.

Nothing about this is good

I will learn nothing from this

My heart pumps nothing but blood anymore

And behind these stars

Is nothing but satellite trash

Endlessness and misery

The stars blink one by one

And go out.

Because the last Optimist

Doesn't need them anymore.

And nothing is as trist

As an Optimist

With their nose on the asphalt

Saying: "I am not cold.

I'll keep laying here.

I'll keep laying here."
