~Der Schrei~

Translation

~ The Scream ~

A scream in the night
full of painful atonement
breaking through the quiet splendor.
Then I realize
that of my self
that scream escaped.
I look up to the sun
her blood-red face is fascinating
fills me with bliss.
The pain that I feel
Lingering flames
is never cool.
By moonlight tonight
oh don't you dare scoff
my deed is accomplished.
I'll be with you
all loneliness will fade
only you will scream.
The way I screamed all those nights
bedded in darkness
only one thought: flee!
My knife will cut
Silent
and end my suffering.

I like to be foolish to ask
you are alive
no matter how long I've suffered.
I will feel your warm blood
accompanied by silvery tears
in me the blazing embers suffocate.
The knife's edge now shines blood-red
in the light of the moon.
My spark of life thin as silk.
Resting under you
the roots of the beech
oh hear me curse myself
The time has come
urgently it reaches for me.
Again, I am not the winner.
You're lost, so am I.
i have to follow
obey the painful duty
A scream breaks the silence of the night
It was my last cry ...
