Süchtig nach Geborgenheit [English translation]

I was so sure of my freedom

And now I am ill when you're not by me

You hold me tight, you let me go

Are hot and cold together

I fight for you, deceive myself

And fear deprives me of sleep

Addicted to security, hopelessly given over

Addicted to the tenderness that I need to live

Addicted to security, helpless for desire

Between dream and loneliness, flighty and captive

Never was I so true, never so vulnerable

I lose myself when you're not by me

You call after me, you leave me standing

You come only to go again

I tear myself loose, I run after you

I cannot understand myself

Addicted to security, hopelessly given over

Addicted to the tenderness that I need to live

Addicted to security, helpless for desire

Between dream and loneliness, flighty and captive

Addicted to security, hopelessly given over

Addicted to the tenderness that I need to live

Addicted to security, helpless for desire

Between dream and loneliness, flighty and captive
