In deinen Armen [English translation]

In your arms

I shortly forgot

That they are still shooting behind me

And break weak hearts

In your arms

I didn't think

about the injuries for a moment

and about the tears on my shirt

You say, for all you know

That there has never been a boxer called "caution"

who went into a fight

By the front door on the wall

It says "Thomas + Mereike"

And when we see both of them today

He's alone, alone, alone

And she's somewhere and said while she left:

Who can give you everything, can also take everything from you

In your arms

I didn't know anymore

That the kitsch can become a war

and the wanting can become a must

In your arms

I didn't think about it anymore

About the burned children1 and

the hotplates I touched

You say, for all you know

You've never seen a horse called "gloom"

win a race

By the front door on the wall

It says "Thomas + Mereike"

And under it it says, very small

Thomas is a pig!

And that's how it can go:

Who can give you everything, can also take everything from you

And in your arms

I just lay still

And I let myself fall and just said:

Just let us give it everything
