Genau entgegengesetzt [English translation]

She:

Exactly the opposite is the (proper) direction

You will lose when you're winning

Your heart already knows which way to go

You can only take what you give

What you seek to diminish will grow

What you seek to weaken will grow strong

What you destroy will destroy you

You're bringing pain into this world

The door to all miracles slams shut right in front of you

You can't see it, you don't know who you are, you want more

You surrender your name, you think that's the only way to keep things safe

You're confusing the heart, confusing the heart

He:

Exactly the opposite is the (proper) direction

Now, just as ever, nothing's too late

You can't hear what doesn't make a sound

There's no use singing about it

Both: As deep as the oceans

He: And as untouchable1 as light

Both: So deeply hidden and yet so close

So inexplicable and so true

The door to all miracles slams shut right in front of you

You can't see it, you don't know who you are, you want more

You surrender your name, you think that's the only way to keep things safe

You're confusing the heart

He: Confusing the heart

She: The thing I'm talking about doesn't name itself

He: Has no name, nor face

Both: It finds you when you're not looking

When you only want to be what you are

She: Exactly the opposite is the (proper) direction
