Újrajátszanám [English translation]

The windows break, the house is burning down

we’ll remove what is left of the parquet.

I may be a nobody to you, just the remainder,

but at least I’ll leave something behind.

I just want to live, not to burn away

and I can scream with full force.

There’s no fate, there never has been destiny,

and now I’m not quoting the Old Testament.

I confess my sins, my God, believe me,

I couldn’t have acted otherwise,

even if I were condemned now I’d still own it.

I confess my sins, believe me,

but I don’t need forgiveness

’cos I’d play every minute of it again.

I’d replay it.

The torn off tap’s pouring a storm on us,

tonight we’ll throw a night that lasts until the day after tomorrow.

I’m just a nobody to you, just the remainder,

but at least I can really be.

I just want to live, not to burn away

and I can scream with full force.
