Stirb Nicht Vor Mir (English) Lyrics
The child's name is loneliness
It is cold and motionless
I cry softly into time
I don't know what your name is
But I know that you exist
I know that sometime
someone will love me
No words are left to say
With his hands around my neck
I close my eyes and pass away
In my dreams he does exist
His passion is a kiss
And I can not resist
Don't die before I do
I wait here
Don't die before I do
I know that you exist
Don't die
Sometimes love seems so far
I wait here
Your love I can't dismiss
I wait here
And candle light in the windows
They lie there together
And I
I only wait for you
Don't die before I do
I wait here
Don't die before I do
I know that you exist
Don't die
Sometimes love seems so far
I wait here
Your love I can't dismiss
Seems to be a song about a man and a woman who are soul mates, but haven't actually found each other yet. The fact that the male half of the song is in German and the female half is in English might symbolize how the two are "worlds apart".
Even though the song portrays the determination of never giving up hope in their search, it also illustrates the pain of being without one another. They repeatedly ask each other not to die before their search is complete.
This song is both melancholy and heartening. It is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.
most beautiful song on the whole Rosenrot album! I think it covers soemthing along the lines of finding the One that's perfect for you and letting them know how you feel before it's too late
I agree with ether poet i have only recently gotten into german metal very beautiful song very deep
It reminds me of Phantom of the Opera.
Christine: In sleep he sang to me In dreams he came That voice which calls to me And speaks my name And do I dream again? For now I find The phantom of the opera is there, Inside my mind
Phantom: Sing once again with me Our strange duet My power over you Grows stronger yet And though you turn from me to glance behind The phantom of the opera is there Inside your mind
wow. this song brings tears to my eyes. everyone wants to find that person they love with all of their heart and body and soul, with every part of their being. that person that they simply cannot live without. but love kills- whether slowly or not, it kills. or something like that.
I love this song. I've always thought this song is about a person who is searching for the love of their life, feeling lonely and are heart broken but determined to find that special someone before it's too late.
I think this song is about a man growing old and eventually dying, searching for that one person they can love with their whole heart. I can kind of relate to this song through my father. Ever since he and my mom divorced, my father has been living alone, searching for the true love of their life. (not sure if he is still through loving my mother :( )

So now I exist in a slow motion suicide, in a world that is a little less colorful, where sounds are a little more distant and muddled, where food has a little less taste, where joy and satiation is a fading memory, where happiness brings pained realizations the one I wish to share that feeling with is not by my side, and the only thing I pray for now is that they do not die before I do.....I dont think I could handle never seeing them again, and only ever being able to be no closer than 6 feet away from who I was meant to lay down with for eternity, until the sun swallowed the earth before casting our atoms out to drift among the stars for the rest of time together. It hurts every day. It will never stop. And it is the pain many claim in poetic prose, but the unluckiest few will have to endure. I know now why people give in to the release from this plane, and I hope they found their painless forenevermore.
