Flackern, Flimmern. [English translation]

They make children, we make love

They count defeats, we count victories

What if we fall? What if we fly?

Close your eyes, count to seven

Darling, they spread lies

Half-fiction, a little exaggerated

Plus smoke and mirror

Heights pull us down, lousy eyelids

We're incredibly tired

Searching nightlong through nothing

Finding nothing in everything

Spit out poison and bile1

I'm totally exhausted

Maybe my tunnel, your sidetrack?

Next bottle of wine

No, you don't need to stay awake

My so called shit still means the world to me

As long as the voice is still withstands and I can escape the heartattack

It'll be Kansas City Shuffle

Everyone's looking to the right

We rush past them on the left side, forever and I

don't understand those fears you have

What torments you every night

Listen, what you're talking about in your sleep

Far away, and yet near where you lie

And suddenly everything (is) so easy

So easy, as if it's happening on its own

First flickering, then flickering*, lightning and thunder

The wolves scratch on the door

Everything (is) so easy

So easy, as if it's happening on its own

First flickering, then flickering*, lightning and thunder

The wolves scratch on the door

Worse and worse, before it gets better, attack it now

With not much to lose, besides time and reason

I'm at the edge of insanity, holding on with one hand

It's weirdly comfortable in the eye of the hurricane

I've been carrying this darkness deep within me for years

But let me tell you: I've never loved like I loved you

If I quickly flee, it's not because of you

Sometimes I don't want to be found, but I'll come back

Seriously, I was never as afraid as right now

Rarely sleep before six, self-doubt from A to Z

Nighttime in bed, no breath, rolling around

I know, it's difficult, but I really hope that you stay

Eyes everywhere, eyes everywhere

I really hope that you don't go when I fall

Eyes everywhere, eyes everywhere

I really hope that you don't go when I fall

And suddenly everything (is) so easy

So easy, as if it's happening on its own

First flickering, then flickering*, lightning and thunder

The wolves scratch on the door

Everything (is) so easy

So easy, as if it's happening on its own

First flickering, then flickering*, lightning and thunder

The wolves scratch on the door

And suddenly everything (is) so easy

Everything (is) so easy

And suddenly everything (is) so easy

Everything (is) so easy

1. It's an idiomatic phrase to describe a really angry emotion
