Wie Weit

These are the correct lyrics: Mein Leben dreht sich So monoton und still Und zeichnet dabei einen Kreis Kreis der Ewigkeit

Ich kann dem Gefühl nicht entgehen Ich sei ein dauerhafter Gast Das Gold dieser Welt Ist nichts wert Verbrennt meine Haut

Wie weit muss ich gehen Um zu sehen Dass die Nacht ein Ende sucht Wie viel muss ich geben Um zu fühlen Bin ich denn verflucht Will ich's wagen Ist es gut Oder bin ich doch verflucht

Why am I sad Why am I sad when I have more than I ever had

Mein Leben ist einsam Ich bin zu schwach, um aufzustehen Gestreckt auf dem Boden, wie gelähmt Der Himmel ist zu schwer

Meine eigenen Regeln sind mein Feind Wie die Trägheit in mir Und etwas zu ändern ist so schwer Ein Krieg, den ich verlier

Wie weit muss ich gehen Um zu sehen Dass die Nacht ein Ende sucht Wie viel muss ich geben Um zu fühlen Bin ich denn verflucht Wie gross ist die Sehnsucht Die mich treibt Verlier ich meinen Mut Soll ich mich ergeben Oder lebe ich Das Leben nach der Flut Will ich's wagen Ist es gut Oder bin ich doch verflucht?

And these are the English translation: My life is turning So monotonously and quietly Drawing a circle Circle of eternity

I cannot escape the feeling I was a permanent guest The gold of this world Is worth nothing Is burning my skin

How far do I have to go To see That night is trying to find an end How much do I have to give To feel Am I accursed Shall I dare it Is it okay Or am I yet accursed

Why am I sad Why am I sad when I have more than I ever had

My life is lonely I am to weak to get up Racked on the ground as if I was paralysed The sky is too heavy

My own rules are my enemy Like the torpidness in me And it's so difficult to change something A war that I loose

How far do I have to go To see That night is trying to find an end How much do I have to give To feel Am I accursed How strong is the longing Which drives me Am I loosing my courage Shall I surrender Or do I live The life after the flood Shall I dare it Is it okay Or am I yet accursed

Seasons of grey... I do not know where you got these "correct lyrics", and I can't claim they'd be entirely wrong. But the so called corrections are so minor I had to read extremely carefully the lyrics you have posted on your comment to find the differences. Also...The lyrics I posted here are from the official CD booklet, and if there has been some sort of typos in it, it cannot really be helped. I do not speak German, so I cannot tell for sure which lyrics are completely correct. All I can say is that I usually like to put my trust in the version mentioned in the booklet if I do not hear the vocalist singing otherwise myself. In any case, I am sure we all appreciate your effort for posting the English translation. For that I thank you.

I am from Germany and I have to say that your part

Mein Leben ist ne Weide Zieht sich vom S�den nach Nord(en) Gestreckt auf dem Boden wie gel�hmt Der Himmel ist zu schwer

does absolutly not occur in the song. there are also minor mistakes.

seasons of grey wrote the correct lyrics. thank you!

I'm too lazy to interpret the whole song, but I feel like the line "I cannot escape the feeling I was a permanent guest" is about feeling like you don't realy belong in the world, therefore you are a just a guest.
