Welt der Wunder English translation
von Marteria

The waves you see crash against these rocks
For three billion years
Whether they notice us or remember anything
We were here once before
Did everything
It finally worked out
Holding something in our arms that looks like us
It becomes twice as beautiful
It becomes twice as much
When I share it with you – infinite expanse


We send robots on journeys
Bring us something beautiful
We write – let it drift in bottles
Surely there'll be a message back
We wake up with worries
Wake up with wrinkles
Wake up with a smile on our face
Someone leaves, we fetch water
Extinguish their fire
Yet we don't forget them

Because we live on a blue planet
That orbits a ball of fire
With a moon that moves the seas
And you don't believe in miracles
And you don't believe in miracles
And a butterfly flaps its wings
The whole earth trembles
We survived
And you don't believe in miracles
And you don't believe in miracles


We are so far apart
Yet feel so close
Don't speak your language but understand every word
I just have to think of you
The phone rings
It remains a mystical place
Avalanches of metal roll through the city every morning
Past our windows
Mother Earth wears jewels – adorns herself with diamonds
We rob her and set a price
We are black, we are white, we are green
And yellow, blue, gray, or red
We are sometimes Hendrix, Mozart, Biggie, Queens of the Stone Age, and Depeche Mode
We look back to the Big Bang
I can hear your heart racing
Whether we fall or rise
You have already won once
Against millions who were like you
That must be enough, man

We live on a blue planet
That orbits a ball of fire
With a moon that moves the seas
And you don't believe in miracles
And you don't believe in miracles
And a butterfly flaps its wings
The whole earth trembles
We survived
And you don't believe in miracles
And you don't believe in miracles

We live on a blue planet
That orbits a ball of fire
With a moon that moves the seas
And you don't believe in miracles
And you don't believe in miracles
And a butterfly flaps its wings
The whole earth trembles
We survived
And you don't believe in miracles
And you don't believe in miracles
