Memory fails me, names and faces blur
– Mir aarem geeschter sin dankbar Fir Eng erleuchtung.
There is only after, or before
– Et gëtt nëmmen nach oder virun
Am I so different? Have I changed?
– Sinn ech sou anescht? Hunn ech geännert?
I do not recognise my face
– Ech erkennen mäi Gesiicht net
The scar fades but pulls inside
– D ‘ Narbe verschwënnt awer zitt no bannen
Tugging at me all the time
– Déi ganz Zäit op mech gezunn
Chewing on a feeling and spitting it out
– E Gefill kauen a späiz
Crouched in a ball gown
– Squat an Engem Prom Kleed
Anxious and ashamed
– Ängschtlech a geschummt
The vague humiliations of faith
– Elo solle mer gewise kréien,
I do not find worthiness in virtue
– Ech fannen keng Wäertlechkeet An Tugend
I no longer try to be good
– Ech probéieren net méi gutt ze sinn
It didn’t keep me safe
– Et huet mech Net A Sécherheet bruecht
Like you told me that it would
– Wéi dir mir gesot hutt et géif
So come on, tear me wide open
– Also komm, räisst mech wäit op
A terrible gift
– E schreckleche Kaddo
Let the chorus console me
– Loosst De Chouer mech tréischten
Sympathy magic
– Léift-Magie.
And light coming in the window just so
– An D Liicht kënnt just esou An D Fënster
And the wind through my fingers
– An De Wand duerch Meng Fanger
The only God that I know
– Deen Eenzege Gott deen ech kennen
And it does not want me on my knees to believe
– An et wëll net datt ech op Meng Knéien gleewen
Head high, arms wide
– Kapp erop, Waffen breet
Aching, aching, aching
– Schmäerzen, Schmäerzen, Schmäerzen
And alive
– A lieweg
And alive
– A lieweg
So I don’t have to be worthy
– Also ech muss net wäert sinn
I no longer try to be good
– Ech probéieren net méi gutt ze sinn
It didn’t keep me safe
– Et huet mech Net A Sécherheet bruecht
Like you told me that it would
– Wéi dir mir gesot hutt et géif
So come on, tear me wide open
– Also komm, räisst mech wäit op
‘Til I’m losing my mind
– Bis ech De Kapp verléieren
‘Til I cannot contain it
– Bis ech et net enthalen kann
La-da-da-da-da-da-da
– Da ginn ech bei hien, bei den zänndokter.
So come on, come on, I can take it
– Also komm, komm, ech kann et huelen
Give me everything you got
– Gëff mir alles wat dir hutt
What else? What else? What else? What else?
– Wat soss? Wat soss? Wat soss? Wat soss?
So come on, come on, I can take it
– Also komm, komm, ech kann et huelen
Give me everything you got
– Gëff mir alles wat dir hutt
What else? What else? What else? What else?
– Wat soss? Wat soss? Wat soss? Wat soss?
