Das Leben wartet nicht [English translation]

You scream,

"Give me my aspiration back!",

And gaze a hole into the wall,

I want

To give you a glimmer of hope,

You put it down right away

If you continue hiding yourself,

And secretly lick your wounds,

Then you will never know

Who you are,

If you don't feel the fire anymore,

And lose yourself in nothingness,

Then you'll never find

What you miss

Life doesn't wait for you,

Life doesn't wait for you,

If you want to win, then run,

Never give your dreams up,

Life doesn't wait for you,

It doesn't wait for you,

What holds you down, who holds you tight,

If you let yourself drift further,

You will yet again be on the wrong side,

Have you forgotten how it is

When joie de vivre is gnawing at you,

When you can't bear the storm in your heart

Ask yourself what you miss,

Delve deep into yourself as if it were your last day,

Time is getting away from us,

Why don't you understand that

Life doesn't wait for you
