"
A clash of titans
electrifies the air.
This wild duel warns me
I'm close to getting caught in the middle
In this isolated world,
I feel how fragile I am.
Don't try to deceive me,
You don't want to hide
that you have walked out as if nothing's wrong.
A Monster cast from paper
I don't know what I'm up against
Or is there someone else here?
Run away from me, this grave feeling,
as if there's a monster chasing it away.
Tell me it's all lies,
a silly dream and nothing else.
I'm afraid of that evil place
where no one can hear my voice.
Don't try to deceive me,
You don't want to hide
that you have walked out as if nothing's wrong.
A Monster cast from paper
I don't know what I'm up against
Or is there someone else here?
I believe in terrible fantasies
of some strange place
and all of my foolishness
that makes you burst into laughter.
In this isolated world,
I feel how fragile you are.
Let us go without fear.

I hope I do this song justice. When I listen to it and read the English lyrics I've chosen, it feels as if it's a very similar song in the sense that the message is ultimately the same.
Actually, @trdollar 's translation has a lot of ad-lib interpretations. "Traduttore traditore" they say, so here's a much more verbatim translation:

Struggle of giants
It turns
Air into natural gas
A savage duel
Warns
Struggle of giants
It turns
Air into natural gas
A savage duel
Warns
How close I am to get
Into a thumping world
I feel my fragility
How close I am to get
Into a thumping world
I feel my fragility
What a nightmare
Running
With a beast behind
Tell me it is all a lie
A silly dream and no more
Enormousness scares me
Where nobody hears my voice
What a nightmare
Running
With a beast behind
Tell me it is all a lie
A silly dream and no more
Enormousness scares me
Where nobody hears my voice
Quit hoodwinking
Don't try to hide
That you have gone through without tripping over
Paper monster
I don't know who I go against
Or is it...
Quit hoodwinking
Don't try to hide
That you have gone through without tripping over
Paper monster
I don't know who I go against
Or is it there is somebody else here?
I believe in the terrible ghosts
From some strange place
And in my antics
For making your laughter burst
In a thumping world
I feel my fragility
Quit hoodwinking
Don't try to hide
That you have gone through without tripping over
Paper monster
I don't know who I go against
Or is it there is somebody else here?
