One way or another I knew it all
and here it's before me what I was afraid of
I saw you holding his hands firmly
and me in the corner hiding like a thief
Therefore hide away so I won't see you anymore
I can't resist a mistake
try lest I'll see you again
it can't go on from here on in
And now before me the pain and your lie
these I've asked you about and the rest you withheld
those I've seen and the rest you've kept back
the mistake that burned inside you and I held it tight
Therefore hide away so I won't see you anymore
I can't resist a mistake
try lest I'll see you again
it can't go on from here on in
I'm returning to myself and I've collected whatever was left for me
and now I dared to leave you behind
without illusions since you burned them away
and me truly how much I wanted them
Therefore hide away so I won't see you anymore
I can't resist a mistake
try lest I'll see you again
it can't go on from here on in
