I carry the dirge of times To unfold the misery in men A single trace behind My fortune fades I know it's the same Thaty you will face In your subsequent steps
I cannot try in this stream of life This time my look, alarmed Will bring you against Those thousand dreams I have ever built myself Do you know now I'm geting empty?
Trust me back against the ground To the ice of this playground Before I turn into soil Under the wrecked stars
But now, when I've climbed The trampled heights And soaked beneath The desolated skies See me without disguise And the dew that mornings brings Stoned on my back And with friends bewildered Someone made me a statue - so dead
I cannot hide in the sands of time And let me tell you This is far beyond control And you paint my future bible black
But now, when I've climbed The trampled heights And soaked beneath The desolated skies See me without disguise And the dew that mornings brings Stoned on my back And with friends estranged You made me a statue - so dead
