Dschungel im Kopf English translation
von Namika

Thoughts entwine around everything that wants to breathe
It's growing over my head
Time-consuming plants pulling at my nerves
I can't escape from here
I stand here and can’t see the dream for all the trees
So I go against it, take the machete, and follow my heart
I become an Amazon in the Amazon, otherwise I'm lost
When darkness falls

Jungle in my mind
Jungle in my mind
Even though I can't see the sky
I find my way
With instinct and machete
I survive
Jungle in my mind


Thoughts entwine around fear of the future and me
I start to feel at home in my endless green
I’ve planted new hope
And even if the termites infest my free days
I still know despite all the monkey cries
That my patience vine won’t break
Hey, I drink mosquito mules, make my loft out of a feather crown
Because the drums of the jungle are coming

Jungle in my mind
Jungle in my mind
Even though I can't see the sky
I find my way
With instinct and machete
I survive

Sometimes I dream myself free into endless expanses
For a moment away from here
But a slight rustle is enough
And my Amazons come to get me
They belong to me


Jungle in my mind
Jungle in my mind
Oh na na na na na na
Jungle in my mind
Oh na na na na na na
Jungle in my mind
Jungle in my mind
Oh na na na na na na
Jungle in my mind
Jungle in my mind
Oh na na na na na na
Jungle in my mind

Even though I can't see the sky
I find my way
With instinct and machete
I survive

Jungle in my mind
