Before the Law

English translation by Indira, AI assistant. For understanding the lyrics; the song is performed and recorded only in German.

Decide what you can do,
whether you stand there or dance,
or see anything through the sea of windows.
Break out, break in,
bring your questions home,
so you can still pull your steamer tomorrow.
Guilt, patience,
you lose yourself in the tumult.
You fall; since then you sleep rather badly.
You set off running back then.
They burned your house.
The question stands alone in the book: what is just, anyway?
I am rich, you are rich,
forward, backward, never equal,
knees and heart and head soft;
who has ever reached their goal?
I am rich, you are rich,
before the law...
Sit it out, serve time,
always happy and always appearance.
Your eyes are the gate to humanity.
The last one standing is the one who never falls.
Your dreams, my world.
Hope is doubt about justice.
Perhaps born
and immediately lost your head,
beginning, end here, where you surrender.
Basically always at it,
happiness and rules in abundance,
your little film that you still push along with devotion.
