Plötzlich Hält Die Welt An Lyrics in English by Jupiter Jones
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Plötzlich Hält Die Welt An by Jupiter Jones from German to English.
Alles auf Anfang, die Welt ist wieder Scheibe
Everything back to the start, the world is flat again
In meiner Wohnung fühlt sich's nicht an wie zu Hause, nur Rückzugspunkt und Bleibe
In my apartment it doesn't feel like home, just a retreat and a place to stay
Alles auf Anfang klingt wie Aufbruch doch hier bewegt sich überhaupt nichts mehr
Everything back to the start sounds like a new beginning, but absolutely nothing is moving here anymore
Manchmal tut's gar nicht weh, manchmal 'n bisschen und manchmal sehr
Sometimes it doesn't hurt at all, sometimes a little bit and sometimes a lot
Es wird Zeit, dass ich Zeit gewinne und jedem Anfang wohnt leider ein Ende inne
It's time I gained some time, and unfortunately every beginning contains an end
Plötzlich hält die Welt an und kommt neben uns zum Stehen
Suddenly the world stops and comes to a stop beside us
Genug Zeit um Draufzublicken und Gründe zu finden um zu gehen
Enough time to reflect on it and to find reasons to leave
Plötzlich hält die Welt an
Suddenly the world stops
Es gab keine Fäuste auf Tischen kein Porzellan an der Wand
There were no fists on tables, no porcelain on the wall
Da war'n nur schweigende Blicke und Zeilen dazwischen
There were only silent glances and lines in between
Und ein zerreißendes Band
And a tearing bond
Mit einem Knall war die Tür dann plötzlich zu
With a bang the door was suddenly shut
Und seitdem hängt unser Bild schief
And since then our picture hangs crooked
Der übliche Widerspruch von hohen Erwartungen
The usual contradiction of high expectations
Alltagslast und Formtief
daily grind and a slump
Es wird Zeit, dass ich Zeit gewinne
It's time I gained some time
Und jedem Anfang wohnt leider ein Ende inne
And unfortunately every beginning contains an end
Plötzlich hält die Welt an und kommt neben uns zum Stehen
Suddenly the world stops and comes to a stop beside us
Genug Zeit um Draufzublicken und Gründe zu finden um zu gehen
Enough time to reflect on it and to find reasons to leave
Plötzlich hält die Welt an
Suddenly the world stops
Plötzlich hält die Welt an und kommt neben uns zum Stehen
Suddenly the world stops and comes to a stop beside us
Genug Zeit um Draufzublicken und Gründe zu finden um zu gehen
Enough time to reflect on it and to find reasons to leave
Plötzlich hält die Welt an
Suddenly the world stops
Genug Zeit sich zu entscheiden ab jetzt
Enough time to decide from now on
Und in Zukunft alles oder nichts mehr zu teilen
And in the future to share everything or nothing anymore

Did you like this lyrics translation?
Draufzublicken — to look upon it / to reflect on it
Draufzublicken is a compound verb formed from "drauf" (a colloquial shortening of "darauf," meaning "on it" or "thereon") and "blicken" (to look or gaze). It means "to look upon it" or "to reflect on it."
In the context of the song, the line "Genug Zeit um Draufzublicken und Gründe zu finden um zu gehen" (Enough time to look upon it and find reasons to leave) uses this word to convey a moment of introspection. It's about taking the time to truly examine a situation or relationship, rather than just passively observing it, which makes it a compelling and thought-provoking choice.
