So many questions
but no answers about me
where is my home
in my head it drones
where will I go
senseless wandering
no open door
nowhere to return
where will I go
where do I belong
where's the end of my way
where will I stay, where will I go?
my life is hopeless
nowhere to turn
where do I fit in
where do I belong
I don't follow footprints
I wanna make my own
wherever I go
there was someone else
the answer to this quest of life:
will I find my way
to refresh my soul
exchange for promises and hope
I'm wandering in tears,
new perspectives I will find
I dive into the sea
to realms of unknown blue
I break the surface
to drown in nothingness
Calm before the storm
Storms drowning everything
Floods drowning all
You're sinking down
Water, deep, blue, cold
The sea's calling You
Floods drowning all
Blue dimensions
Water, deep, blue, cold
destroying all
And the flood's destroying all
And the world is sinking down
Blue dimensions over us
Our world is dying
Black clouds appear
and the rain falls
Lands under water
they sink into forget
Cold under water
lies the wreck called mankind
With how sad steps You climb the skies !
How silently, how pale Your face...
What may it be, that even in this place
that busy archer his arrows tries ?
Liebe verendet zu Staub und verlabt mich
Mein Geist, er schaut auf zu den hoheren
Zielen und reichert fur mich Unvergangliches
an, Vergangliches bringt mir nur
endliche Freuden
Leave me, oh love, which reachest but to dust
And You, my mind, aspire to higher things
Grow rich in that which never takes rust
What ever fades but fading pleasure brings
Verbreite die Strahlen, gib' mir Deine Macht,
die die Wolken besiegt und das Licht mir bewegt
durch den Fruhling des goldnen belebenden Blickes
Ich suche den Weg in der Dammerung schwer
And let the day be time enough to mourn
Let walking eyes suffice to vail their scorn
The shipwreck of my ill-adventured youth
Without the torment of the night's untruth
