We are diving
in neutral waters.
We can laugh at the weather
all year long,
but if they spotted us
the radars would howl
our misfortune:

Save our souls!
smothering drives us crazy.
Save our souls,
hurry and get us!
You there on dry land, hear us,
our SOS gets weaker and weaker
terror splits our souls
in half!

And the tension builds up,
but there is no way to go forward!
be it port
be it starboard
be it straight ahead,
a horned death
prevents us from moving!

Save our souls!
smothering drives us crazy.
Save our souls,
hurry and get us!
You there on dry land, hear us,
our SOS gets weaker and weaker
terror splits our souls
in half!

But we're here by our own free will
this is our world, after all!
Have we gone mad or something,
wandering into a minefield?!
No time to panic now!
We will run aground!
said the commander.

Save our souls!
smothering drives us crazy.
Save our souls,
hurry and get us!
You there on dry land, hear us,
our SOS gets weaker and weaker
terror splits our souls
in half!

We will surface at dawn,
orders are orders,
better die in daylight
than in a bleak light!
Our course is not plotted,
we have nothing, nothing!...
Please remember us!

Save our souls!
smothering drives us crazy.
Save our souls,
hurry and get us!
You there on dry land, hear us,
our SOS gets weaker and weaker
terror splits our souls
in half!

Now we went up,
but there is no way out!
Full speed ahead toward the docks,
nerves taut as ropes.
This is the end of all misery,
all ends and beginnigs.
We are throwing ourselves on the docks
instead of torpedoes!

Save our souls!
smothering drives us crazy.
Save our souls,
hurry and get us!
You there on dry land, hear us,
our SOS gets weaker and weaker
terror splits our souls
in half!
