Tränen Aus Kajal Lyrics in English Céline

Home / Lyrics Translation / Céline / Tränen Aus Kajal

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tränen Aus Kajal by Céline from German to English.

After everything, you're not here anymore

And I wish I didn't care about you

The night glows black, you rob me of sleep

I cry kajal tears for you

I ask myself all night who you fall asleep with

Because I still think about you

I know for sure it's over

But I never wanted it to end

I tell my friends I'm fine

But I'm so alone in my thoughts

Feels like some f*cking withdrawal

And you're already getting the stuff from another

After everything, you're not here anymore

And I wish I didn't care about you

The night glows black, you rob me of sleep

I cry kajal tears for you

Even when you leave, something stays

I want you to be there

Even when you leave, something stays

I want you to be there

I'm supposed to finally be free again

My best friends keep telling me

But I only want to be with you or alone

Man, I just can't forget you

Mom knows exactly I'm not doing well

Because she knew what you mean to me

Don't you see my soul bleeding?

I can't pretend we're friends

After everything, you're not here anymore

And I wish I didn't care about you

The night glows black, you rob me of sleep

I cry kajal tears for you

Even when you leave, something stays

I want you to be there

Even when you leave, something stays

I want you to be there

Bridge

I only think about you, but you don't give a sh*t about me

I cry kajal tears in the dark

After everything, you're not here anymore

And I wish I didn't care about you

The night glows black, you rob me of sleep

I cry kajal tears for you

Even when you leave, something stays

I want you to be there

Even when you leave, something stays

I want you to be there

Heartbreak has never looked so cinematic. In “Tränen Aus Kajal” (“Tears of Eyeliner”), Céline paints the picture of a sleepless night where the only light comes from a phone screen that refuses to buzz. The relationship is over, but the memories are still on repeat: the singer imagines who her ex is falling asleep with, feels withdrawal-like cravings for the lost love, and literally cries black streaks of mascara. Each line captures that raw mix of hurt and obsession when you wish someone meant nothing to you, yet they occupy every corner of your mind.

Hope and hurt collide in every chorus. Friends urge her to enjoy freedom, but freedom without the ex feels empty. Even her mom can read the pain on her face. Despite knowing it is truly finished, she clings to the smallest “something” that still remains, begging for the presence of the one who left. The song is an emotional roller-coaster of denial, longing and late-night vulnerability—perfect for anyone who has ever tried to put on a brave face while their eyeliner told the real story.
