I bury myself in my room
Close the doors, double-checked
Close the shutters
With the world going downhill
Outside it's unbearable
Too loud, too bright, too fast
And in me, there grows a darkness
Outside it's too bright!
Peace found only in my sleep
My eyes, heavy as lead
The world rushes past me
I will not hear, will not see
Never leave this room
Come, tell me: Does that sound crazy?
Everywhere, only chaos reigns
Sheer fear₁, the bare greed
That's why I scream into the night
And in the day, I am left₂ here
Peace found only in my sleep
My eyes, heavy as lead
The world rushes past me
I will not hear, will not see
Never leave this room
Come, tell me, go on, tell me: Does that sound crazy?
My world breaks apart
And it burns at the edges
I'm afraid, I'm falling down
Say, have I lost my mind?
Say, have I completely lost my mind?
Peace found only in my sleep...₃
I will not hear, will not see
Go on, tell me, is that crazy?
