I'm Not Myself
My eyes show off all of my sadness
And find no comfort here
I can't face myself anymore
I'm not me
Everything that was here
I cannot find myself inside me
Swept away like a dream
I see myself vanish more and more
I'm not myself when you're not, not with me
I'm all alone
And everything that is still left of me
I don't want to be
Outside the heavens hang a slope
And on the wall your farewell note
I'm not myself when you're not, not with me
I'm alone
I've forgotten who I am
And all that matters to me
It's all somewhere left with you
Where are you
Without you through the night
I find emptiness inside me
What have you done with me!?
I see myself vanish more and more
I'm not myself when you're not, not with me
I'm all alone
And everything that is still left of me
I don't want to be
Outside the heavens hang a slope
And on the wall your farewell note
I'm not myself when you're not, not with me
Don't want to be alone
I slowly disappear
I can't control myself
I cannot get you out of my mind now
Wherever you may be
Come and rescue me
I'm not myself when
you're not...
Not with me
I'm all alone
And everything that is still left of me
I don't want to be
Outside the heavens hang a slope
And on the wall your farewell note
I'm not myself when you're not, not with me
Don't want to be alone
(BACKGROUND
I slowly disappear
I can't control myself
I cannot get you out of my mind now)
Don't want to be a...lone
(BACKGROUND
No matter where you are
Come and rescue me
I am not me when you're not)
Don't want to be alone!

About translator
This is not a 100% direct translation, but I'd say it was about 95%-97% translation. I pretty much translated it myself with the help of friends that speak fluent Deutsch. This is how my band is going to sing it in English (we will also sing the Deutsche version.) If anything was changed in my translation, it still retained the songs exact meaning and this is probably near how they would have sung it in English if they did.
