Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sophie by Silbermond from German to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Kalte Hände, müde Augen
Cold hands, tired eyes
Es flattern Motten im Neonlicht
Moths flutter in the neon lights
Der Bus kommt, letzte Reihe
The bus is coming, last row
Wischst die Tränen aus deinem Gesicht
Wipe the tears from your face
Alle reden in deiner Stadt
Everyone is talking in your town
Mit wem du schläfst und was du machst
Who you sleep with and what you do
Nächster Halt du hältst dich wach
Next stop you keep yourself awake
Willst weit, weit weg von hier
Want to go far, far away from here
Wo willst du hin?
Where do you want to go?
Was willst du finden?
What do you want to find?
Es ist Zeit zu gehen
It's time to leave
Zeit zu verschwinden
Time to disappear
Du weißt nicht was
You don't know what
Vor dir liegt, nur dass
What lies ahead is just that
Es falsch wär zu bleiben
It would be wrong to stay
Es liegt so viel vor dir, Sophie
There is so much ahead of you, Sophie
Der ganze Frust deiner Mum
All your mom's frustration
Blau-violett auf deinen Armen
Blue-purple on your arms
Tief im Hoodie dein Versteck
Your hiding place deep in the hoodie
Lange Ärmel auch im Juli damit's keiner checkt
Long sleeves even in July so no one checks
Und alle reden in deiner Stadt
And everyone is talking in your town
„Warum hat sie das mitgemacht?'
'Why did she go along with that?'
Doch warum haben wir nichts getan?
But why haven't we done anything?
Vielleicht wärst du dann noch hier
Maybe you would still be here then
Wo willst du hin?
Where do you want to go?
Was willst du finden?
What do you want to find?
Es ist Zeit zu gehen
It's time to leave
Zeit zu verschwinden
Time to disappear
Du weißt nicht was
You don't know what
Vor dir liegt, nur dass
What lies ahead is just that
Es falsch wär zu bleiben
It would be wrong to stay
Es liegt so viel vor dir, Sophie
There is so much ahead of you, Sophie
