Rammstein - Mein Herz brennt (English Translation) Lyrics

[Intro]
Now, dear children, pay attention
I am the voice from the pillow
I brought you something
Have ripped it out of my chest
With this heart, I have the power
Blackmail the eyelids
I sing until the new day comes
A bright light in the heaven's sky

[Chorus]
My heart burns

[Verse 1]
They come to you at night
Demons, ghosts and black elves
They crawl up from the cellar rows
And will take a look under your blanket

[Pre-Chorus]
Little children listen now
I am the voice from the pillow
I brought something to you
A bright light in the heaven's sky

[Chorus]
My heart burns
My heart burns
[Verse 2]
They come to you at night
And steal your small hot tears
They wait till the moon awakes
And push them in my cold veins

[Pre-Chorus]
Little children listen now
I am the voice from the pillow
I sing 'til the day awakes
A bright light in the heaven's sky

[Chorus]
My heart burns
My heart burns
My heart burns
My heart burns

[Verse 3]
With this heart I have the power
To blackmail the eyelids
I sing 'til the day wakes up
A bright light in the heaven's sky

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
My heart burns
My heart burns
My heart burns (My heart)
My heart burns
(My heart burns)
(My heart burns)
