Laura [English translation]

After dawn, came the day 1

At night we were bluer than the colour itself 2

Now everything is monochrome

Hhumans are electric

Since you're gone I am powerless

It's true, at the end there will only be scars

The pain gets smaller and bigger at different times of the year

Some day I'm going to step on its stretcher

You are and will always be my big question mark

When you shouted at me I should piss off

When I shouted at you, so anti "What's up?!"

When you threw the telephone

The telephone crashed in slow motion against my temple

When blood dripped from my forehead to the floor

I left, in the evening I got so wasted

We loved each other in the wreckage of our laptop

From this conflict, to shouting follows love

To crying follows a feeling which makes you addicted and sad at the same time

Your smell was my home

Your true lies, your different point of views

Your perspective, sharp Blue which glares at me

Your birth mark on your left bladebone

The things you said to me, which I underwent

The thing I said to you, which you forgave me

The sleeping world of the night used to be our playground

When the sunset light shines in this colour,

Then there's a hole in the air where you stood

Do you here me where you are

Stay exactly where you are, soon I'm also coming

So wait for me

/x2

In the cocoon on the nightly highway

At speed 200 are we completely alone

We are completely safe

The streaks of light are our only witnesses

We are both thinking about the world "Up yours!"

Mutual loneliness, 2 egomaniacs

Two who sleep too little, a melodrama

You have your weaknesses

A small aide which helped you and helped you until you were not yourself anymore

When we met, you used to be four years older

When we broke up, eight, and the city a couple degrees colder

Too much drawn, too much to work somehow

Nutrition for the ego, anabolic for your mental quirks

You slipped away from me

The curse of the black amex

Death in instalments bought with your father's money

I wanted to hold you, but I was too young, was too dumb,

was too proud

We both had a bellyful of her ways

When the sunset light shines in this colour,

Then there's a hole in the air where you stood

Do you here me where you are

Stay exactly where you are, soon I'm also coming

So wait for me

/x2

When my phone rang, with your number

At first I didn't answer

At the third time I cursed and did it though

When someone was on the phone, who asked "Who are you?"

An acquaintance of yours'

He said my number was the last

Which you dialled before the accident

When your father, which I've never met, said

Your car, bridge, multiple times flipped over

Split seconds, no skid marks detectable

Suicide, 10th May, funeral in Munich

Then clicking, silence at noisy ears

That's the way I've frozen in my inner north

How I shouted at myself, how everything tightened

How everybody looks at me accusing since then

I wrote this song x-times for you

x-times I threw it way, never the right words

also this time it's not perfect enough

I'm driving in Tokyo through Shibuya with the last train

In the flickering neonlight

I'm seeing you in the window

I would love to be where my girl is

My icecold angel

How often I tried to push you aside at any costs

Your classical Tiffany silver necklace

Still today I see your shilouette

In a crowd

There's a deep cut where you have been

But something is there

There's not nothing where you have been

There's light where you habe been

A shimmer, a slight one

I can see it, nobody besides me

When your are at the big party

Reserve us the best place

Then we are talking about your last sentence

When you are above,then wait for me in the light

When you are down, then wear you dress with slit

The checks which my mouth has written weren't covered

I have searched but there's nobody that can replace you

And yes, it's right, we both weren't perfect

Too many arguments, too much drama, too much sex

You were my new continent, I discovered you

If I meet you again, then I will never leave

Then I will never leave again

Then I will never leave agaian

never leave again

Then I will never leave again

never leave again.
