Seducing Dementia - Herrschaft

I am sprawling in my armchair and feel so good

A watchful glare wrapping and taking care of my sensations

A restrained explosion

I feel even better, and more and more cheerful

All the joy building up at the bottom of my throat into a bouncy and hysterical

ball

-CHORUS-

Seducing dementia

I’m Unable to hold it any longer

I need to pour this joy out

Even if only a little

Both sensations of movement and movement of sensations

I need to declaim those words — again and again

I want to share this truth with every man

As if I could kiss this world

But as it takes ages to command my lips to move

And finally my words so odd, slightly disturbed I decide

I will not move my body

But let the room dance around me

-CHORUS-

Seducing dementia

I’m Unable to hold it any longer

I need to pour this joy out

Even if only a little

Only now I realize — how tense and painful I am

For I’ve been sitting such a long time now

All my muscles prickling, my whole body is under strain

Trying to relieve the point of pressure again

I need to stretch my will and lean aside uncross my legs

But my body remains frozen — and paralyzed

My whole motion painfully slow I feel it’ll never end

Blocked by fear as if a single move could make everything fall and crash

Seated and petrified

Agonizing till the achievement

Prickling and terrorized

Of taking over the control
