Was ich alles hab', was ich nicht brauche
What I have everything I don't need
Und trotzdem ist es hier
And yet it's here
Die ganzen dinge, die sich stapeln
All the things that pile up
Zu wenig platz dafür
Too little space for it
Ich hab' es satt, will wieder atmen
I'm fed up, I want to breathe again
Die alten kisten sind noch da
The old boxes are still there
Ich hol' sie raus und mir wird klar
I'll get them out and I realize
Sieben kartons, mehr brauch' ich nicht
Seven cartons, I don't need more
Ich packe nur ein, was wirklich wichtig ist
I just pack what's really important
Sieben kartons, die reichen mir
Seven cartons, which are enough for me
Und was zu viel ist, bleibt eben hier
And what is too much stays here
Jedes teil, das auf dem weg bleibt
Any part that stays on the away
Macht die seele wieder leicht
Makes the soul easy again
Und da liegt mancher schatz vergraben
And there lies some treasure buried
Unterm ganzen haufen zeit
Under the whole heap time
Ich pack' ein, was mir den mut gibt
I pack what gives me the courage
Etwas neues anzufang'n
To start something new'n
Da kommt einiges zusamm'n
There's a lot coming of me
Sieben kartons, mehr brauch' ich nicht
Seven cartons, I don't need more
Ich packe nur ein, was wirklich wichtig ist
I just pack what's really important
Sieben kartons, die reichen mir
Seven cartons, which are enough for me
Und was zu viel ist, bleibt eben hier
And what is too much stays here
Da war'n schon so viele menschen
There were so many people
Ich vergess' ein paar davon
I forget a few of them
Und für freundliche gesichter
And for friendly faces
Hab' ich wieder platz gewonn'n
Have I back platz won'n
Wer kann sagen, was passier'n wird?
Who can say what will pass?
Wer die lücke dann noch füllt?
Who will fill the gap?
Hab' wieder platz in meiner welt
Have' back in my world
Sieben kartons, mehr brauch' ich nicht
Seven cartons, I don't need more
Ich packe nur ein, was wirklich wichtig ist
I just pack what's really important
Sieben kartons, die reichen mir
Seven cartons, which are enough for me
Und was zu viel ist, bleibt eben hier
And what is too much stays here
