Signal Lyrics in English Joris

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Signal by Joris from German to English.
Do you feel the grains of sand falling?
Everything rushes by too fast
And so many dreams fade with time
Someday it'll end
But on every other day it won't
We've forgotten how much life we have left
We wanna be everything, just not who we are
We're scared of loneliness
Yet we're stuck right in the middle
I hope for the revolution, but it's silent
Is anybody there or am I alone?
Can anybody hear me?
This is my signal
Is anybody out there?
This is my signal
Can anybody hear me?
No matter how far away
Is anybody out there?
I won't give up till you hear it
This is my signal
Loud silence in the air
Empty thumping in the chest
Nothing but godd*mn silence between us
I'm sending it on every channel
I'm lighting the beacons
This will either break through or hit the wall
And if you can hear it
Then spread your wings
A sea of butterflies summons the storm
'Cause even when revolution screams inside me
Is anybody there or am I alone?
Tell me, is anybody there or are we alone?
Can anybody hear me?
This is my signal
Is anybody out there?
This is my signal
Can anybody hear me?
No matter how far away
Is anybody out there?
I won't give up till you hear it
This is my signal
Is anybody out there?
Bridge
And I see us falling
Deeper and deeper into the silence
But I believe, I believe in us
See us falling
We were quiet for far too long
Send the signal out into the distance
Can anybody hear it?
Turn it up, ’cause I'm sending it out!
I sing it loud, ask myself
Can anybody hear me?
Turn it up, ’cause I'm sending it out!
I sing it loud, ask myself
Can anybody hear me?
Turn it up, ’cause I'm sending it out!
I sing it loud, ask myself
Is anybody out there?
Turn it up, ’cause I'm sending it out!
I sing it loud, ask myself
Can anybody hear me?
Turn it up, ’cause I'm sending it out!
I sing it loud, ask myself
Is anybody out there?
Turn it up, ’cause I'm sending it out!
I sing it loud, ask myself
Can anybody hear me?
This is my signal

SONG MEANING

Ever feel time slipping through your fingers like sand? Joris turns that universal panic into an electrifying call-to-action. In "Signal" we meet someone who watches dreams fade, fears loneliness, yet realizes they are already stuck in it. The verses capture that quiet anxiety: hearts pounding, silence humming, and a desperate question – Is anyone out there?

But the song is not about surrender. The chorus fires a sonic flare into the sky, urging listeners to crank the volume and answer back. Every "Das ist mein Signal" is a promise: keep sending your message, light your beacons, because somewhere, someone will resonate with your frequency. "Signal" celebrates connection, self-acceptance, and the tiny revolutions that begin the moment we refuse to stay silent.
