In Der Stille Lyrics in English Subway To Sally

Home / Lyrics Translation / Subway To Sally / In Der Stille

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song In Der Stille by Subway To Sally from German to English.

Now it is quiet, you lie with me

And I don't have to say anything to you

We circle around the same star

Carried away from gravity

Now it is quiet, you lie with me

Just a blink of an eye away

And yet so unreachable far

For every gesture, every word

You know the pain in my stomach

The threads that pull around me

Are too tangled to escape

But you know my longing too

Now it is quiet, you lie with me, a dark moon follows its path

Thoughts sharp as claws

Attack me like wolves

You know the pain in my stomach

The threads that pull around me

Are too tangled to escape

But you know my longing too

My arms spread out

Around you like flames

We plunge into the sun

From which we both come

Your arms hold me

Oh, we will be light in the light

We plunge into the sun

From which we both come

My arms spread out around you like flames

We plunge into the sun from which we both come

SONG MEANING

In der Stille invites us into a midnight moment where two lovers lie side by side, wrapped in absolute quiet. The silence is not empty; it is charged with gravity, moons, and circling stars. Although their bodies are only “a blink of an eyelash” apart, unseen threads of pain and longing keep them feeling both incredibly close and frustratingly distant. Thought-wolves with razor-sharp claws pounce on their minds, hinting at inner fears and tangled memories that refuse to let go.

Yet the song refuses to stay in darkness. Like twin comets, the couple’s arms flare out “like flames,” and together they plunge into the very sun that birthed them. In that fiery embrace, hurt and hunger melt into pure light, suggesting that real connection can burn away every shadow. The track blends Gothic mystique with cosmic romance, turning a quiet bedroom scene into an epic, star-crossed journey from silence to supernova.
