It's of course not meant literally ;) It just shows how desperate he is. He wants to find him/her so bad that he looks for him/her everywhere even under a stone. Rammstein is one of the best bands ever.
there are many misstakes in the translation, for example: "Alle Uhren bleiben stehen" means "All the clocks stay stopped" not have stopped. It is not the same.
@212025510 Yeah, but that's the correct translation. 'Stay' in german isn't the same in this context as 'stay' in english, so 'have' is better here. When you translate from one language to another you get the meaning across as accurately as you can and this may mean you don't use any of the same words. That is the skill of the translator and why bilingual people are the best, as they understand both languages equally.
@veganbeetle sorry to be the nerd here, but the meaning IS altered by using "have"
"have stopped" gives the idea that they just stopped now, that means that they were working before. but "reamain" or "stay" gives the idea that they have been idle (without ticking) for some time, and this situation continues...
a good translation would have been "remain quiet" or "stay still" or sth like that....
@SickDream Thanks, mate. You need to be a nerd when translating, it's about getting it as close as possible. I don't translate german myself, more portuguese, but the person I replied to didn't appear to understand the concept of translation at all. Word for word, that sort of thing. Anyway, cheers.
@veganbeetle dont know if i got the meaning abaut what u r saying but translatting is not word by word, it means to keep the meaning of the sentence i give u a german example!
@Deltaxify No, 212025510 was translating word for word. I was explaining to them that it is the meaning that is important. Basically, what you are saying.

I'm not sure why, but whenever I think of German I think of this kind of darker side of the world. Not wrong, just darker. From Rammsteins songs with their deeper, usually darker meaning all the way back to Erlkonig, which Rammstein has a song based off of( Dalai Lama).
@katrusify Rammstein are good for learning words but not the language as bands tend to be vague with word meanings, conjugate wrong to fit in with the sound etc
@spritejunkee i believe it means that he is too afraid to sleep without her that he is looking for so thats why he sleeps with a knife... maybe you are right thats my opinion anyways
