Himmel auf [English translation]

He bears one thousand crosses during the day

365 days a year

12 hours mark his face

it's okay, but it's not pretty

every morning he walks through this door

every morning he keeps wondering why

and every day slips through his hands

breakneck speed against de wall

isn't there for me

some luck* out there?

the end of the tunnel that promises light

He wants so much, but not really

just a little bit of luck

when will the sky* rip open?

for me, too? for me, too?

when will the sky rip open?

for me, too? for me, too?

when will the sky rip open?

Tell me when, tell me when

when will the sky rip open?

for me, too? for me, too?

Tell me when will the sky rip open?

when will the sky rip open?

It's like living in paradise

when she shoots the sweet poison in her veins

she forgets everything, that seemed so merciless before

The cold sky and the cold Berlin

She's not much liked in this city

because our net didn't catch her

because the devil drew his circles around her** (= she got trapped in a vicious circle)

nothing has fallen in her lap yet

isn't there for me

some luck out there?

the end of the tunnel that promises light

She wants so much, but not really

just a little bit of luck

when will the sky rip open?

for me, too? for me, too?

when will the sky rip open?

for me, too? for me, too?

when will the sky rip open?

Tell me when, tell me when

when will the sky rip open?

for me, too? for me, too?

Tell me when will the sky rip open?

when will the sky rip open?

when will the sky rip open?

when will the sky rip open?

when will the sky rip open?

when will the sky rip open?
