Irgendwo in meinem Geiste [English translation]

Somewhere in my mind

Is a dark chamber

Well locked and guarded

Missed by no one

Snow lies in this chamber

Raging with the winter storm

No light nor fire

Illuminates the dark tower

Kept prisoner in this old tower

Sits a small, naked child

Freezing and shivering from the cold

Frightened as only children are

Is abandoned and alone

No one hears it's lamentation

Not even its own father

Is asked where it may be

Don't ask about my worries

My need doesn't matter

No one can be allowed to live my suffering

No one can be allowed to know my pain

Don't ask about my fears

Never ask what happened

When my own child was buried

Which I never saw again

Don't give up

Will one far-off day

Someone go into the chamber

See the child and its suffering

Their light of life will wither

Wait for the father's word alone

Who can easily save it

But the wish for the rescue

Is ripening hesitantly

Don't ask about my worries

My need doesn't matter

No one can be allowed to live my suffering

No one can be allowed to know my pain

Don't ask about my fears

Never ask what happened

When my own child was buried

Which I never saw again

Don't give up

Don't ask about my worries

My need doesn't matter

No one can be allowed to live my suffering

No one can be allowed to know my pain

Don't ask about my fears

Never ask what happened

When my own child was buried

Which I never saw again

Don't give up
