Totes Herz Lyrics English Translation by Julia Meladin
They say a dead heart can’t be easily buried
For attached to your dead heart are memories
No matter how hard you try, you can’t shake them off
Blood still runs in your body, but your heart is dead
The pain resurfaces, memories become clear
Every tear that had gone is suddenly back here
Some things can’t be forgotten, some stay forever near
I want to return to the time when my heart was still red
Silence and solitude, pain and sadness
A pill, and my mind is clear
A heart made of cold stone
Because a dead heart can’t be easily buried
Oh, memories cling to your dead heart
No matter how hard you try, you can’t get rid of them
Blood still runs in your body, but your heart is dead
Loneliness suffocates me, haven’t been happy for so long
Felt nothing but sadness for ages
Pictures torn and thrown away instantly
Want to banish everything, as it tears me apart
Silence and solitude, pain and sadness
A pill, and my mind is clear
A heart made of cold stone
Because a dead heart can’t be easily buried
Oh, memories cling to your dead heart
No matter how hard you try, you can’t get rid of them
Blood still runs in your body, but your heart is—
All the memories have captured me, wrapped around me
All I see around me is black
There’s no therapy, for I never had depression
Just a heart that will never love again
Because a dead heart can’t be easily buried
Oh, memories cling to your dead heart
No matter how hard you try, you can’t get rid of them
Blood still runs in your body, but your heart is dead
