Hack Translate: Haus Der Drei Sonnen (House of the Three Suns)

I love this song. I love even more Nena's voice singing it. It's been tough to find it translated to English and even then I don't know that I would trust the English translation all that much. I decided to go with an impartial robot and use Google Chrome's translation engine while searching for Haus Der Drei Sonnen via the German Google. This is what I got. I was shocked to find out that the music definitely matches the lyrics. And they are fascinating. I decided to include the video from Youtube as well at the end. Enjoy. 

German: 

Im Haus der drei Sonnenfern von dieser Welt
wo leuchtend die Räder des Schicksals rotier'n.Im Haus der Geschichtendie niemand erzählt
wo Raumschiffe einsam im All explodier'n.Im Schnellzug der Hoffnungder nirgendwo hält
kämpft ein alter Spieler um sein letztes Geld
will alles auf einmal und sofort -Das Schiff das sinktdoch der Käpt'n bleibt an Bord.
Im Haus der drei Sonnenfern von dieser Welt
im Schnellzug zur Hoffnungder nirgendwo hält
wo leuchtend die Räder des Schicksals rotier'n
und Raumschiffe einsam im All explodier'n.
Mal geht's ihm gutund dann geht's ihm schlecht -manchmal hat er Glückdoch meistens hat er Pech.Im Haus der drei Sonnen vergisst er die Welt
er hat seine Verluste noch niemals gezählt.Der Schnellzug zur Hoffnung ist lange entgleist
im Haus der drei Sonnendas Groschengrab heißt.Alles auf einmal und sofort -Das Schiff das sinktdoch der Käpt'n bleibt an Bord.

English: 

In the house of the Three Suns away from this world

where bright rotate the wheels of fate

in the house of the stories that nobody tells

where spaceships explode diern lonely in space

In holding fast to the hope of nowhere

an old player is fighting for his last money

everything at once and immediately

the ship is sinking but the captain remains on board the

Signature

I've been mulling over identity and uniqueness today. I find each person's unique qualities to be fascinating and a large part of what attracts me to them. I find most, if not all, of my friends possess something like this. I'm guessing that people who don't have these "uniquenesses" probably don't wind up jiving with me and may not end up developing into more than an acquaintance. It's definitely something I can pick out in each one of them. They are as unique and different in their individual styles, likes and dislikes, moods and quirks.

What is getting me is how not like this I feel. I can pin down someone's "signature" on the world around them but not my own. It's probably just me being over analytically, but I look at myself and see copycatting. I see little bits of everyone else out there as the sum total of who I am. None of it seems like it's a spawn of my own individuality. Granted, most of my experiences are my own or are a reinterpretation of a shared experience with someone else. But outside of that, what makes me standout sharply against the background?

This question will be around for a while, I'm thinking. I am on a quest to figure out what makes me unique and develop it. I'm tired of blending in with the background. Not sure why that is the way it is, but awareness can only act on it or let it be. There is no going back and changing the past. Who'd really want to? It would rob me of this process of self development.
