Inundauswendig Lyrics English Translation by makko
My life is passing me by
Numbed out, running on autopilot
Everything’s stealing my attention
Don’t get high anymore, but my eyes are bloodshot, I’m an idiot
I seriously need to change something
But I’m scared of failing
Do I do what fulfills me, or what others expect?
Open sea and I’m drifting on a raft
If I keep going like usual, I’ll be dead the day after tomorrow
The horizon is small, my worries are enormous
Everything that drags me down, I’m letting go today, ah
I’m drowning, I’m so deep underwater
I could swim, but only without my vices
I see the surface shimmering, I’m almost there
I surface, catch my breath, and suddenly I see crystal clear
Finally I feel alive
I took everything for granted for way too long
Please slow me down, otherwise I’ll overthink
Hopefully I won’t miss the moment this time
I know this inside and out
I’m a hundred percent, one hundred percent me
Baby, yeah, you know me
People make mistakes, but mistakes make you human
Finally I feel alive
People make mistakes, but mistakes make you human
I finally feel like myself
I admit it, I’ve been faking it for way too long
I know the bad habits aren’t gone from the world
But I’m really trying to make my willpower hold
High on life, I smoked my chain
Living without the high, yeah, that’s what I needed
I fooled myself, believed every lie
If you feel what I feel, trust me, you can do it too, ah
I finally know who I am now
And since then my life makes sense again
I overcome obstacles and fall back down
But as long as I’m the one deciding, it’s not that bad
I need distance from what makes me sick
Stay strong, trust me, you can do it
It took a long time for me to realize
I can only win if I do what I’m afraid of
Finally I feel alive
I took everything for granted for way too long
Please slow me down, otherwise I’ll overthink
Hopefully I won’t miss the moment this time
I know this inside and out
I’m a hundred percent, one hundred percent me
Baby, yeah, you know me
People make mistakes, but mistakes make you human
Finally I feel alive
Hopefully I won’t miss the moment this time
I know this inside and out
People make mistakes, but mistakes make you human
