Translation of the song lyrics Siehst Du mich im Licht? - Lacrimosa

Siehst Du mich im Licht? (original)

Deine Lippen in das Fleisch gepresst
Die Meinen wild verzerrt
Der Orgasmus der Verwundbarkeit
Die Seele schreit nach mehr
Nur herein in meine kleine Welt
Und friss dich durch bis zum Schafott
Zerbeisse jede Zelle meiner kalten rohen Haut
Und du bleibst leer
Hast zerstort
Nur fur Sekunden diesen Rausch erlebt
Und du bleibst leer
Hast gelogen und betrogen
Und bei allem dich nur selbst projeziert
Zwei Augen I’m Kopf
Und die Ohren links und rechts
Und so tot wie ein blinder Fisch
Du kannst mich nicht verstehen
Nein — du wirst mich nie verstehen
Nur reden kannst du uber mich
Dir ist es scheissegal ob es wahr ist oder nicht
Denn am Ende trifft es niemals dich
Du bist die letzte Instanz
Du bist die Regel der Instanz
Du bist der;
order jeder Wahrheitssubstanz
I’m kurzen Augenblick
Des blinden bermuts
Verspruhst du deine Weisheit
Deine Falschheit — Deine Sucht
Und du bist dir nichts bewusst
Deine Dummheit ist die Lust
Die deinen Verstand langsam ausradiert
Und du bleibst leer
Hast zerstort
Fare Sekunden diesen einen kurzen Rausch erlebt
Und du brauchst mehr
Du musst lugen und betrugen
Und bei allem —
Siehst du mich I’m Licht?
Zwei Augen I’m Kopf
Und die Ohren links und rechts
Und so taub wie ein blinder Fisch
Du kannst mich nicht verstehen
Nein — du wirst mich nie verstehen
Nur schreiben kannst du uber mich
Dir ist es scheissegal ob es wahr ist oder nicht
Denn am Ende trifft es niemals dich
Du bist die letzte Instanz
Du bist die Regel der Instanz
Du bist der;
order jeder Wahrheitssubstanz
Nicht I’m Gesprach liegt deine Kraft
I’m Monolog suchst du die Opfer
Deren Dasein dich am Leben halt
Zwei Augen I’m Kopf
Und das Herz am falschen Platz
Du bleibst das Echo unsrer Zeit
Du bist das Sprachrohr weit und breit
Nicht viele Worte mocht ich machen
Denn du machst ja schon genug
Wahrscheinlich wirst du wieder lachen
Solange trinke ich den Blut
Zwei Augen I’m Kopf
Und das Herz am falschen Platz
Und so taub wie ein blinder Fisch
Du kannst mich nicht verstehen
Nein — du wirst mich nie verstehen
Du wirst mich nie verstehen!
Your lips pressed into the flesh
Mine wildly contorted
In the orgasm of vulnerability
The soul is crying out for more
Come along into my little world
And eat your way through to the scaffold
Chew each cell of my cold raw skin to pieces
And you remain empty
You have destroyed
Only experienced this ecstasy for seconds
And you remain empty
You lied and deceived
And only projected yourself in all this
Two eyes in your head
And the ears left and right
And as blind as a dead fish
You cannot understand me
No — you will never understand me
You can only talk about me
You don’t give a shit if it’s true or not
Because it never affects you in the end
You are the last authority
You are the gauge of the balance
You are the murderer of each essence of truth
In a short moment
Of blind arrogance
You sense your wisdom
Your falseness — your obsession
And you are not aware that
Your stupidity is the desire
Which is slowing erasing your mind
And you remain empty
You have destroyed
Only experienced this ecstasy for seconds
And you need more
You must lie and deceive
And in all of this —
Can you see me in the light?
Two eyes in your head
And the ears left and right
And as blind as a dead fish
You cannot understand me
No — you will never understand me
You can only write about me
You don’t give a shit if it’s true or not
Because it never affects you in the end
You are the last authority
You are the gauge of the balance
You are the murderer of each essence of truth
Your strength doesn’t lie in talking
You look for your victims in monologues
Whose beings keep you alive
Two eyes in your head
And your heart in the wrong place
You are the echo of our time
You are the mouthpiece far and wide
I don’t want to make any words
Since it is you who makes enough already
You will probably laugh again
In the meantime I’ll drink your blood
Two eyes in your head
And your heart in the wrong place
And as deaf as a dead fish
You cannot understand me
No — you will never understand me
You will never understand me!

(translation)

Your lips pressed into the flesh
Mine distorted wildly
The orgasm of vulnerability
The soul cries out for more
Just come into my little world
And eat your way through to the scaffold
Bite every cell of my cold raw skin
And you remain empty
have destroyed
Only experienced this intoxication for seconds
And you remain empty
You lied and cheated
And in everything only projects yourself
Two eyes in the head
And the ears left and right
And as dead as a blind fish
You can not understand me
No — you will never understand me
You can only talk about me
You don't give a fuck if it's true or not
Because in the end it never hits you
You are the last authority
You are the rule of authority
You are the;
or any substance of truth
In a short moment
Of blind fervor
Are you spreading your wisdom
Your falsity - your addiction
And you are not aware of anything
Your stupidity is lust
That slowly erases your mind
And you remain empty
have destroyed
Fare seconds experienced this one brief rush
And you need more
You must lie and cheat
And with everything —
Do you see me in the light?
Two eyes in the head
And the ears left and right
And as deaf as a blind fish
You can not understand me
No — you will never understand me
You can only write about me
You don't give a fuck if it's true or not
Because in the end it never hits you
You are the last authority
You are the rule of authority
You are the;
or any substance of truth
Your strength does not lie in conversation
In the monologue you look for the victims
Whose existence keeps you alive
Two eyes in the head
And the heart in the wrong place
You remain the echo of our time
You are the mouthpiece far and wide
I didn't want to say many words
Because you're already doing enough
You will probably laugh again
As long as I drink the blood
Two eyes in the head
And the heart in the wrong place
And as deaf as a blind fish
You can not understand me
No — you will never understand me
You will never understand me!
Your lips pressed into the flesh
Mine wildly contorted
In the orgasm of vulnerability
The soul is crying out for more
Come along into my little world
And eat your way through to the scaffold
Chew each cell of my cold raw skin to pieces
And you remain empty
You have destroyed
Only experienced this ecstasy for seconds
And you remain empty
You lied and decided
And only projected yourself in all this
Two eyes in your head
And the ears left and right
And as blind as a dead fish
You cannot understand me
No — you will never understand me
You can only talk about me
You don't give a shit if it's true or not
