Mein Haus [explizit] [English translation]

My house, in the middle of the street

My house is where they say that I’m a freak

In my house, I don’t know why this is

In my house, my house

Part 1:

They brought me back; it was an order

Which they, up there said that I’m now going over the edge ¹

I know they want to boycott me, censor me,

and get me down, but I don’t let them get me down

They want to obliterate me, break my will,

Put me back in the nut house again, put me back on pills again,

‘Cause I’m tellin’ the truth, this world is sick

I was always the number one topic at every PTA meeting ²

They want to beat the shit out of me

Because the kids are a mess and somebody needs to take care of it

They give me a thousand pills, want me to swallow the shit, but I spit them out again when no one’s looking

Boy, I can’t sleep; I’ve got the night sweats

I know they’re coming every night in their white jackets,

But no matter what they try

I’ll survive; this hell is my house

My house, in the middle of the street

My house is where they say that I’m a freak

In my house, I don’t know why this is

In my house, my house

Part 2:

In my house, I see how patients smoke cigarettes,

How broken existences look through the bars

They give them medicine; tell them it makes them happy

Sometimes you, yourself, think that you’re crazy

I’m locked up here, eating more pills than normal food

Completely on antidepressants, confined daily to my bed

I’ve forgotten how long I’ve been sitting down here

Whether it’s still light outside or whether it’s dark

They want to fuck my life over,

But I remain hard, yet I don’t care how much electricity they shoot through my skull

They tell you that you are the scum of the earth

I’ll smash your head through the wall, but it doesn’t change anything

I’ll carve these lines with my fingers on the wall,

You can take everything from me, but they're not getting my sanity

Doesn’t matter what you try, I’ll survive in this hell, in my house

My house, in the middle of the street

My house is where they say that I’m a freak

In my house, I don’t know why this is

In my house, my house

Part 3:

They let me out to see daylight again

I’ve forgotten which year, which day this is

I’ve fought for you until the very end; I’ve traded the white walls for the blue sky

I’ve always stayed true, no matter what they tried

Electric shocks, padded cells, or cold showers

They said I’m a psychopath skitzo, but I survived, they could never understand it ³

Now I’m free again and can see how the sun sparkles

They gave me the blame that the kids are so bad

Look at mankind; everything is just gray and flat

I’m not the way society has made us

I’m going out now, I’ll tell how sick the system is,

I’ve got to do it, because otherwise it will soon be too late

They tried to fuck me, but I held it out

In this hell in my house

My house, in the middle of the street

My house is where they say that I’m a freak

In my house, I don’t know why this is

In my house, my house
