Zuhause Lyrics in English Max Giesinger

Home / Lyrics Translation / Max Giesinger / Zuhause

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Zuhause by Max Giesinger from German to English.

Didn't I always want it this way

Never be at home

Always wired

Stagnation as the biggest enemy

I rip the roots out

Before they go deeper

Always on the move

Always ready to jump

Am I really searching

Or just addicted to change?

I wonder how long

This is supposed to keep going?

Been on the road so long

My head just wants to keep going

My heart says that I

miss home

Wherever that is

When will I stop and quit running away?

Because I miss home

Wherever that is

It's

a flood of new faces

Sometimes I don't even know myself anymore

Wake up somewhere and wonder

Where I really belong

Run away from myself

And can hardly keep up

Experience more and more

Always another notch up

Gotta go one level higher

Almost all lives used up

When will I ever be content?

It's really not that hard

Been on the road so long

My head just wants to keep going

My heart says that I

miss home

Wherever that is

When will I stop and quit running away?

Because I miss home

Wherever that is

It's

I've run most of the way up to here and

I'd like to someday be the boy who arrives

It'll be clear to me when I get there someday, and until then

My head just wants to keep going

My heart says that I

miss home

Wherever that is

When will I stop and quit running away?

When I miss home

Wherever that is

My head just wants to keep going

My heart says that I

miss home

Wherever that is

When will I stop and quit running away?

Because I miss home

Wherever that is

It's

SONG MEANING

Max Giesinger’s “Zuhause” is a road-trip anthem for anyone who’s always on the move yet secretly longs to park the car and stay put. The lyrics follow a narrator who keeps ripping up his roots, chasing new faces and fresh thrills, because standing still feels like the enemy. His mind is addicted to motion, but his heart keeps whispering that something vital is missing: the feeling of home—whatever and wherever that may be.

As the verses race forward, we hear an inner tug-of-war: adrenaline vs. belonging, curiosity vs. comfort. The singer wonders whether he’s truly searching for something meaningful or just hooked on change itself. By the chorus, that doubt turns into a confession: he’s tired of running and wants to discover the place—or the state of mind—where he can finally arrive. “Zuhause” shows that home isn’t always an address; it can be a moment of peace when the head stops sprinting and the heart finally catches up.
