Marry me

(translation to: heirate mich)

You see him creeping around the church
He has been alone for a year
The sadness took away all of his senses
He sleeps every night by her grave

There, by the bells sleeps a stone
And i alone can read it
And on the fence, the red rooster
Who was your heart at that time

The fear has been skewered on this fence
I now go digging every night
To see what still remains
Of the face that smiled for me

There by the bells i spend the night
There between snails, a lonely animal
During the day i run after the night
You escape me for the second time


Marry me

With my hands i dig deep
To find what i missed so much
And under the moon in its most beautiful dress
I have kissed your cold mouth


I take you tenderly by the arm
But your skin rips like paper
And parts fall off of you
You escape me for the second time

Marry me

So i take what still remains
The night is hot and we are naked
According to the curse the rooster greets the morning
So i hacked off his head
