Do You Want to See the Bed in Flames?

Do you want to see the bed in flames
do you want to perish in skin and hair
you want to stick the dagger in the sheet as well
you want to also lick the blood from the sword

Rammstein

you see the crosses on the pillow
you mean the innocence may kiss you
you believe it would be hard to kill
but where are all of the dead coming from

Rammstein

Sex is a battle
Love is war

Do you want to see the bed in flames
do you want to perish in skin and hair
you want to stick the dagger in the sheet as well
you want to also lick the blood from the sword

The Master

Run!

Because the master has sent us
we announce the downfall
the rider of malice
feed his ulcer of envy

The truth is like a thunderstorm
it comes to you, you can hear it
to announce it, is oh so bitter
it comes to you in order to destroy

Because the night lay in death
we announce the doomsday
there will be no mercy
run, run for your lives

The truth is a choir of wind
no angel comes to avenge you
these days are your last
it will break you apart like little sticks

It comes to you as corruption

The truth is a choir of wind
no angel comes to avenge you
these days are your last
it will break you apart like little sticks

White Flesh

You, in the schoolyard
I am ready to kill
and no one here knows
of my loneliness

Red welts on white skin
I hurt you
and you cry loudly

Now you are scared and I am ready
my black blood soils your dress

Your white flesh excites me so
I am just a gigolo
your white flesh enlightens me

My black blood and your white flesh
I will always become hornier from your screams
the cold sweat on your white forehead
hails into my sick brain

Your white flesh excites me so
I am just a gigolo
my father was exactly like me
your white flesh enlightens me

Now you are scared and I am ready
my sick existence cries for redemption
your white flesh becomes my scaffold
in my heaven there is no god

Your white flesh excites me so
I am just a gigolo
your white flesh enlightens me
my father was exactly like me
your white flesh excites me so
I am just a sad gigolo
your white flesh enlightens me

-------------------------------------------------

Ashes to Ashes

Warm body
hot cross
wrong judgment
cold grave

I now lie on the cross
they hammer nails into me
the fire purifies the soul
and remaining is a mouthful of
ashes

I will return
in ten days
as your shadow
and I will hunt you down

Secretly I will rise from the dead
and you will plead for mercy
then I will kneel in your face
and stick my finger in the ashes

Ashes to ashes
and dust to dust

-------------------------------------------------

Seaman

Come in my boat
a storm is rising
and it is becoming night

Where do you want to go
so completely alone
you are drifting away

Who holds your hand
when it
pulls you under

Where do you want to go
the cold sea is
boundless

Come in my boat
the autumn wind holds
the sails taut

Now you are standing by the lantern
with tears in your face
the daylight falls on the side
the autumn wind sweeps the streets clear

Now you are standing by the lantern
you have tears in your face
the evening light chases away the shadows
time stands still and it becomes autumn

Come in my boat
the helmsman
feels longing

Come in my boat
I was the
best seaman

Now you are standing by the lantern
you have tears in your face
you take the fire from the candle
time stands still and it becomes autumn

They only spoke of your mother
only the night is so merciless
at the end I am left alone
time stands still
and I am cold

-------------------------------------------------

You Smell So Good

Insanity
is only a narrow bridge
the banks are reason and desire
I chase you
the sunlight confuses the mind
a blind child that crawls forward
because it smells its mother

I find you

The track is fresh and on the bridge
drops the sweat, your warm blood
I don't see you
I only smell you, I sense you
a predator that screams of hunger
I track you for miles by scent

You smell so good
you smell so good
I follow you
you smell so good
I find you
- so good
I chase you
you smell so good
I will have you soon

Now I have you

I wait until it is dark
then I take hold of your wet skin
don't betray me
oh don't you see the bridge is burning
stop screaming and don't resist
because otherwise it will break apart

You smell so good
you smell so good
I follow you
you smell so good
I find you
- so good
I chase you
you smell so good
I will have you soon

You smell so good
you smell so good
I follow you
you smell so good
I find you
- so good
I touch you
you smell so good
now I have you

You smell so good
you smell so good
I follow you

The Old Sorrow

Out of the seed and into the light
a being pushes me to go
for the same thing and the old sorrow
it catches my tears with laughter
and on the mat a young body rots
where fate directs its puppets
for the same thing and the old sorrow
I know at last that nothing is given away here

Out of the seed and into the nothingness
everyone knows what remains at the end
the same thing and the old sorrow
it drives me slowly to insanity
and the same war rages on the mat
it still always scorches my heart
the same thing and the old sorrow
I know at last....

I want to fuck

Never again, the old sorrow
Never again
Never again, the old sorrow

Out of the seed and into the light
a being pushes me to go
for the same thing and the old sorrow
it catches my tears with laughter
and on the mat a young body rots
where fate directs its puppets
for the same thing and the old sorrow
I know at last that nothing is given away here

Never again, the old sorrow

-------------------------------------------------

Marry Me

You see him creeping around the church
he has been alone for a year
The sadness took away all of his senses
he sleeps every night by her grave

There, by the bells sleeps a stone
and I alone can read it
and on the fence, the red rooster
who was your heart at that time

The fear has been skewered on this fence
I now go digging every night
to see what still remains
of the face that smiled for me

There by the bells I spend the night
there between snails, a lonely animal
during the day I run after the night
you escape me for the second time

Marry me

with my hands I dig deep
to find what I missed so much
and under the moon in its most beautiful dress
I have kissed your cold mouth

I take you tenderly by the arm
but your skin rips like paper
and parts fall off of you
you escape me for the second time

Marry me

So I take what still remains
the night is hot and we are naked
according to the curse the rooster greets the morning
so I hacked off his head

-------------------------------------------------

Heartache

Save each other from heartache
for the time that you are together is short

For even if you are united for many years
one day they will seem like minutes to you

Heartache

Save each other from being in pairs

Heartache

-------------------------------------------------

Spawning Time

He loves his mother
and from the side
he gives the fish to her
it sheds its skin before empty testicles
the old skin falls on the floor

He loves his sister
and from behind
the fish eats to the mouth
the gills still bloody from sucking
on the big red eyes

Spawning time
it is spawning time

He loves his dog
oh god from above
the fish now kisses with his tongue
he spits dead milk in your face
you don't dare to touch him

Spawning time
fishmilk everywhere
it is spawning time

The mother has been taken by the sea
Spawning time
the sisters don't have time
Spawning time
the dog waves from the shore
Spawning time
the fish needs his loneliness
Spawning time

Rammstein
A man is burning
Rammstein
The smell of flesh lies in the air
Rammstein
A child is dying
Rammstein
The sun is shining

Rammstein
A sea of flames
Rammstein
Blood is coagulating on the asphalt
Rammstein
Mothers are screaming
Rammstein
The sun is shining

Rammstein
A mass grave
Rammstein
No escape
Rammstein
No birds are singing anymore
Rammstein
The sun is shining
