Heute nicht (English Translate) Lyrics
It’s so wonderfully beautiful and quiet
Even the last doubt falls silent
The sky knows what I want here
And the wind asks where I’m staying
I dream of the distant future
As if it were a place and not a time
From how many meters is it a precipice?
If it happens quickly, then it wasn’t far
Sometimes I stand in front of the railing
Like the truth before duty
Will anything ever change
Like my shadow with the light?
And I climb over the railing
Look the abyss in the face
It asks, ‘Well, are you at the end?’
I say, ‘You asshole, not today’
Not today, not today
Not today, not today
Not today, not today
Maybe tomorrow, not today
I don’t want anyone to see me like this
But I hope someone comes by
Asks me if there’s a draft up there
And if I’ll stay a little longer
As long as I’m afraid of the fall
Jumping doesn’t make sense yet
And isn’t the end, above all,
A good time to begin?
And I climb over the railing
Into a strip of warm light
And as if everything is changing
I throw my shadow behind me
And then I stand at the railing
Spit in the face of the abyss
I shout, ‘Everything has an end
But I, you asshole, not today
Not today, not today
Not today, not today
Not today, not today
Maybe tomorrow, not today
Maybe tomorrow, not today
Maybe tomorrow, not today
