Es brennt die Welt
Illuminate
The World is Burning
The city lies dark in the night
He brought her flowers
His path leads through dark alleys to her
Just a few steps to the door
As he already feels safe
A bright light shines in the sky
A muffled rumble - thunderclap
Soon the flames are everywhere
And barely awake from his dream
Fires already light up the night
Blood red now shines the world to him
As his love turns to ashes
The world is burning!
And while the bombs are still falling
Screams echo through the streets
I see your face and do not fear death
But our love has fallen
In this war and amidst all
The rubble, no light shines for us
The world is burning!
And while the bombs are still falling
Screams echo through the streets
I see your face and do not fear death
But our love has fallen
In this war and amidst all
No morning grows among the ruins for us
And as dust and blood increase
And the wind blows through your ashes
I dream of your face and do not fear death
For our love has fallen
Long ago, but among all the rubble
One can see on bright days
That your flower blooms again!
