idioter [English translation]

Where were you when they sentenced me

Where were you when I took my punishment

You, who has always defended idiots

You were there when I was crowned king

Stood on your knees when I needed a dog

Best to be on the safe side of the wall

Guard yourself, another colour of the cage

For us idiots

You said the fear, it dies away

But this anxiety still remains

It makes me doubtful when you need

Fast conclusion, fast reply

You said the fear swings slowly for us

Between real and false

Between the truth and lies

We are idiots

I believe in nothing I hear

I believe in nothing I read

I believe I have never once had belief in belief

I pray a prayer when no one sees me

You also have dark secrets

Best to be on the safe side of belief

To guard yourself, to not burn bridges

People are idiots

You said the fear, it dies away

But this anxiety still remains

It makes me doubtful when you need

Fast conclusion, fast reply

You said the fear swings slowly for us

Between real and false

Between the truth and lies

We are idiots

You said the fear, it dies away

But this anxiety still remains

It makes me doubtful when you need

Fast conclusion, fast reply

You said the fear swings slowly for us

Between real and false

Between the truth and lies

We are idiots
