Stille Lyrics in English by Chima
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Stille by Chima from German to English.
Ich übe Rache
I take revenge
Und ich Lüge
And I lie
Ich dreh' mich
I turn
Um mich selbst
Around myself
Verweiger' alles
I refuse everything
Bis ich kriege
Until I get
Was ich will
What I want
Ich bin nie um Ausreden
I'm never at a loss
Verlegen
for excuses
Und scheu' auch keinen Krieg
And I don't shy away from war
Ich sabortier'
I sabotage
Was mir am Herzen liegt
What's dear to my heart
Aber wenn die Stille kommt
But when the silence comes
Dann bin ich hier
Then I'm here
Dann bin ich eins
Then I'm alone
Aber wenn die Stille kommt
But when the silence comes
Dann bin ich hier
Then I'm here
Dann bin ich eins
Then I'm alone
Ich halte dafür
I'm for it
Halte dagegen
I'm against it
Ich bin niemals
I'm never
Zu übersehen
To be overlooked
Ich schreie lauter
I scream louder
Um mich selbst zu übertönen
To drown myself out
Ich sehe rot
I see red
Sehe schwarz
I see black
Und erblinde bald
And soon go blind
Vor Wut
From rage
Ich denk ich würd' was ändern
I think I'd change something
Doch am Ende wird nichts gut
But in the end nothing turns out well
Aber wenn die Stille kommt
But when the silence comes
Dann bin ich hier
Then I'm here
Dann bin ich eins
Then I'm alone
Aber wenn die Stille kommt
But when the silence comes
Dann bin ich hier
Then I'm here
Dann bin ich eins
Then I'm alone

sabotier' — sabotage
Sabotier' is a colloquial, shortened form of "sabotieren," meaning "to sabotage." It's an intriguing word because it reveals a self-destructive tendency.
In the song, the artist sings, "Ich sabotier' Was mir am Herzen liegt" (I sabotage what is dear to my heart). This line powerfully conveys a struggle with self-sabotage, making the word both unique and emotionally resonant within the context of the lyrics.
