Here is a translation of the German song. If there are any mistakes (which may very well be the case), feel free to correct me.

And Rockzmom: glad to have you back!



There is so much, much to much,
publicity everywhere
so much bread and so much games,
happiness doesn't have a name

Cars are on all streets (loose translation!),
cold images are in the heart
no one can read thoughts
the climate is getting milder

I'm building a city for you
out of glass and gold and stone
and every street that leads out of it
comes back in again
I'm building a city for you and for me

No one knows anymore what he looks like
or what his name is
everyone here is on the run
the tears are made of ice

But there should be another way
it can't go on like this
where can I find support, where can I find protection
heaven here is made out of lead

I don't give answers anymore
to these incorrect questions
time is lost so very quickly
you have to chase happiness

A city in which there is no fear, only trust
where we build the walls out of greed and contempt
where the light quickly lies, the water hangs
where every dawn and every dream is worth it
and for every glance through time and space flies into our heart
