I've often hit the nail on the head
And yet I was merely strangled
I've often called the voice of my life
And yet it was merely the past
If I should see the future beaming with joy
I will forgive myself Tell me the meaning of my life
Tell me the meaning of forgiveness
Tell me the meaning of my d**h
And why I'm a murderer I've often dared, but defeat caught my eye
So many years I believed in myself
All these years without any success
All these years without, like a dilettante Tell me the meaning of my life
Tell me the meaning of forgiveness
Tell me the meaning of my d**h
And why I'm a murderer A whole life full of mistakes
A whole life in order to resist
My tears are filling up an ocean
A character in a play
Always the same things in my hand Tell me the meaning of my life
Tell me the meaning of forgiveness
Tell me the meaning of my d**h
And why I'm a murderer
