Frische Luft Lyrics in English Wincent Weiss

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Frische Luft by Wincent Weiss from German to English.
I'm still the boy from the old stories
Even though there's so much new in the north
It would be interesting to know if something changes
But if I stay, then I despair
Tie my eyes and I come into the world blind
Know every corner here by heart
Feel foreign where my home is
Will it get better again? I don't believe so
I will surely miss it a bit
But it would be better to leave
I need fresh air
So I can breathe a little again
Be somewhere I've never been
Take my jacket and just walk away
I need fresh air
So I can breathe a little again
When something ends, something new begins
Just have to believe and then everything will be fine
I need fresh air
Since we live together, it feels different
I thought we would grow old together
Now I'm glad when I'm outside
I don't know if it will get better again
I will surely miss you a bit
But it would be better to leave
I need fresh air
So I can breathe a little again
Be somewhere I've never been
Take my jacket and just walk away
I need fresh air
So I can breathe a little again
When something ends, something new begins
Just have to believe and then everything will be fine
I need fresh air
Bridge
I need fresh air
I need fresh air
So I can breathe a little again
Bridge
When something ends, something new begins
I need fresh air
So I can breathe a little again
Be somewhere I've never been
Take my jacket and just walk away
I need fresh air
So I can breathe a little again
When something ends, something new begins
Just have to believe and then everything will be fine
I need fresh air
Outro
I need fresh air
I need fresh air

SONG MEANING

Need a breath of Frische Luft? Wincent Weiss sings about that restless moment when everything familiar starts to feel too small. He is still “the boy from the old stories,” yet his hometown and even a once-cozy relationship now feel stifling. The chorus bursts out like opening a window: “I need fresh air so I can breathe again.” It is a catchy reminder that stepping into the unknown can be healthier than staying in a place where you are gasping for space.

The song captures the bittersweet mix of excitement and fear that comes with change. Weiss admits he will “miss a piece” of what he leaves behind, but he trusts that “when something ends, something new begins.” With every beat, he zips up his jacket, heads for the door, and invites us to join him on a walk toward new horizons and renewed self-belief.
