Genius English Translations
Rammstein - Engel (English Translation)
[Verse 1: Till Lindemann]
Who in their lifetime is good on Earth
Will become an angel after death
You look to the sky and ask
Why can't you see them

[Chorus: Christiane "Bobo" Hebold & Till Lindemann]
Only once the clouds have gone to sleep
Can you see us in the sky
We are afraid and alone
Because God knows I don't want to be an angel

[Verse 2: Till Lindemann]
They live behind the sunshine
Separated from us, infinitely far
They must cling to the stars (Very tightly)
So they don't fall from the sky

[Chorus: Christiane "Bobo" Hebold & Till Lindemann]
Only once the clouds have gone to sleep
Can you see us in the sky
We are afraid and alone
Because God knows I don't want to be an angel
God knows I don't want to be an angel
God knows I don't want to be an angel

[Bridge]

[Chorus: Christiane "Bobo" Hebold & Till Lindemann]
Only once the clouds have gone to sleep
Can you see us in the sky
We are afraid and alone
Because God knows I don't want to be an angel
God knows I don't want to be an angel
God knows I don't want to be an angel
God knows I don't want to be an angel
God knows I don't want to be an angel
