Nichts [English translation]

All of a sudden my phone rings

I'm alarmed - what an akward sound

A voice says much that is important

And much that is undoubtedly true

Everything I hear makes a lot of sense

I am asked whether I am busy.

But I'm not doing anything

I'm not doing anything

I'm not doing anything

I'm not doing anything, l'm not even breaking up

Time goes by - everything changes

Time goes by - but nothing changes me

Time goes by - and actually

There is much to be done, but I won't do it

For I'm not doing anything - and it doesn't bother me

I'm not doing anything - and I don't worry about it

I'm not doing anything - what needs to be done

I'm not doing anything, l'm not even breaking up

My only friend is not you or she

My only friend is lethargy

The sun rises, I am still awake

The moon is high in the sky, I'm still thinking

I see the stars, they are so far away

There is no point in reaching for them

I'm not doing anything - and it doesn't bother me

I'm not doing anything - and I don't worry about it

I'm not doing anything - what needs to be done

I'm not doing anything, l'm not even breaking up

I don't kid myself

And I don't imitate you

And I know that I

Won't wear me out any more

I'm concerned

I'm doing me something to eat

You make me so weak

And I can't forget you

I'm not doing anything - and it doesn't bother me

I'm not doing anything - and I don't worry about it

I'm not doing anything - what needs to be done

I'm not doing anything, l'm not even breaking up

I'm not doing anything - and it doesn't bother me

I'm not doing anything - and I don't worry about it

I'm not doing anything - what needs to be done

I'm not doing anything, l'm not even breaking up

I'm not doing anything
