Translation of Regen from German to English
Every time it rains here (it rains here)
The street smells like the sea (like the sea)
And when snow falls outside once (snow falls outside once)
The apartment block turns into a mountain (apartment block into a mountain)
And just for a moment
It almost seems (it almost seems)
As if this wasn't the saddest
Place in this city (place in this city)
Throw the last cigarette from the roof balcony
Sparks rain from the house of cards made of reinforced concrete
Here where everyone asks what they should wait for
Because since the nineties, no lift has come to the top floor
Lips hang on the glass, dry from the Our Fathers
The outlook for you is black, gray walls seem more colorful
Here, where you always have a damn reason for stress
You live close to the clouds, but worries pull you down
Yes, here you need imagination every morning
Because constantly eating shit spoils your appetite
Yes, only when you see what no one sees
Your hell here on earth briefly becomes a paradise
Every time it rains here (it rains here)
The street smells like the sea (like the sea)
And when snow falls outside once (snow falls outside once)
The apartment block turns into a mountain (apartment block into a mountain)
And just for a moment (oho)
It almost seems (it almost seems)
As if this wasn't the saddest
Place in this city (place in this city)
The apartment block so high, I can tell you what a cloud tastes like
Here there is true love, but only purchasable
There, where you only recognize red light at night
As if we lived in the remnants of Disneyland
Ah, this area is crazy my neighbor asks me daily for the way
"Where is the way to happiness?"
Every tear like another shower
And I'm just a small stone in a wall
Already too far out, I swim towards land
Eyes open, but I can't find a beach
It fucks my mind
But in the end, even rain is a piece of heaven in your hand
Every time it rains here (it rains here)
The street smells like the sea (like the sea)
And when snow falls outside once (snow falls outside once)
The apartment block turns into a mountain (apartment block into a mountain)
And just for a moment (oho)
It almost seems (it almost seems)
As if this wasn't the saddest
Place in this city (place in this city)
(Every time it rains here
The street smells like the sea (oh-oho-oh-oho)
And when snow falls outside once (oh-oho-oh-oho)
The apartment block turns into a mountain (oh-oho-oh-oho)
And just for a moment
It almost seems (oh-oho-oh-oho)
As if this wasn't the saddest
Place in this city)
