Skies above the endless seas Engulf horizons till they disappear At a sign a ship shaking its masts Passes by like a fortress floating on wastelands
Flocks of cranes sail to the skies Where never ending paths arise Neath the blunt and timid sun Skies above the endless seas The shil, the ocean, the days are gone
Likewise lives and youth pass by They pass away, like a lie Likewise lives and youth pass by And die
Skies full of stars above endless seas Horizons till they disappear An enormous ship shaking its masts Passes by like a floating keep
Skies above the endless seas The ship, the ocean, the days are gone
But till I’m not six feet underground My angels bow to my mourning sound And sing along my weeping, over and over again
Likewise lives and youth pass by They pass away, like a lie, But till I’m not six feet underground My angels, bow to my mourning sound And sing along my weeping, over and over With the passion of a new born lover Again
And then, I will look behind to the world Like those who don’t have much to tell (eachother) When they can’t say what they want In the shadow of these ancient walls In their silence, I lay down to rest
In the same silence that swallowed the travelers Who fell asleep in time Who are now forgotten by aeons
Time is the water in which we drown Time is the fire in which we burn
Likewise lives and youth pass by They pass away, like a lie Likewise lives and youth pass by and die (and die)
Time is the water in which we drown Time is the fire in which we burn
