Vivre [English translation]

At night I hear voices that begin to speak.

I want emptiness.

Another day goes by that I live through

Another night of anguish when I go astray

I try to hang on but fall beeath the weight of troubles,

I switch off because happiness rings false.

Here the people talk to me and forget me

At night I hear voices that begin to speak

I get close to the edge and I can see the bottom.

I want emptiness.

But if I take a step too far

I will fall under the weight of troubles,

my soul drifting.

I was lost in my dreams.

Before time finishes me off

who would know to tell me?

That one has to live (oh no)

To live (what use is living?)

To live (what for?)

To live (what for?)

When I can't find the strength to struggle any more,

nor the strength to resist,

nor the strength to go on,

to weep.

I'm not giving up because I must not,

And that voice in my head like an echo

Between life, emptiness, and chaos

You know that for me happiness rings false.

I can't stand up any more, help me,

Here the people are crazy. Don't leave me,

If even my consciousness is gone

Help me.

But if I take a step too far

I will fall under the weight of troubles,

my soul drifting.

I was lost in my dreams.

Before time finishes me off

who would know to tell me?

That one has to live (oh no)

To live (what use is living?)

To live (what for?)

To live (what for?)

I can't find the strength to struggle any more,

nor the strength to resist,

nor the strength to go on,

to weep.

At night I hear voices that begin to speak

When night comes

I want emptiness

I try to keep up hope

when I hear them say

That one has to live (oh no)

To live (what use is living?)

To live (what for?)

To live (what for?)

I can't find the strength to struggle any more,

nor the strength to resist,

nor the strength to go on,

to weep.

One has to live

What good is living?

I haven't the strength any more no no
