Cover art for Ausser dir lyrics by Wir Sind Helden

I'm about to take a few giant liberties with the lyrics, so don't go thinking this is a direct translation! I just altered it a bit to make more sense in english.

"WITHOUT YOU/BESIDE YOU"

I'm completely beside myself Unhappy since i'm not beside you And I call out just to ask you Can it be that I lost what I was looking for When I last visited you?

I feel unwell, light headed on the bus So I'm learning to ride a bike headless And I know that as the years pass by I'll learn to save face at the same time

You're killing me/ You're making me Sleep and understand I'm meeting with madness for you And with the brink and the band Leave without me I'm beside you I'm short of you I'm without you I'm not at all here

I drink more than I can measure And when nobody's looking I even eat the glass I guess only vultures want to be around me And I'm biting your name into the grass

You're killing me/ You're making me Sleep and understand I'm meeting with madness for you And with the brink and the band Leave without me I'm beside you I'm short of you I'm without you I'm not at all here
