I don't want this wait to end There are hearts you need to mend By your side and far away For all the broken yesterdays Gratitude and tenderness For our God and for this mess And all the haunting memories Our darkened past, our misery And with each relapse I shall collapse The experience of pain And the freezing of our veins It lies ahead and kills the joy Turns the men back into boys How am I to fathom loss Comprehend and bear a cross That is too cold to be bore When I'm already so sore? And with each relapse I shall collapse There's a cosmic truth I've learned And a love for which I've yearned It rips my heart out of my chest I cannot live, I cannot rest Our mortality so real I could touch it, I can feel Every heartbeat, every breath Is one step closer to our death And with each relapse I shall collapse And you know when we're both gone And the sons of our sons Are forever gone in turn My love for you will still burn

Grauwind 04:00
Durch die graue Wand hör ich noch die Stadt, Würd am liebsten Nächte lang dem rauschen lauschen, Denn ich werd nicht satt In diesem kalten Land halt den Wind gut fest, Damit er nicht verweht, ich würd am liebsten ewig hören wie seine starken Schwingen klingen Bis kein Baum mehr steht Weißt du noch, der Herbst kam und wir lachten Berge, Jetzt fühlen wir uns wie Zwerge Jetzt fühlen wir uns wie Zwerge Weißt du denn, ich seh den Regen und weine Meere, Ein Traum aus Rauch und Glas verschwand, Hundert Jahre lang Wind, Wind, nimm mich mit, ich will entliehen, Mit grauen Wolken will ich ziehen, Daß keiner meine Seele nennt Weit, weit oben, wo die Luft dünn ist, Bin ich dünn und für niemanden da Kalt erscheint mir heute unser Licht, Und ich sehe dein Gesicht verdunkelt In glatte Schatten eingehüllt Die Hand gibst du mir so kühl und fern, Früher mocht ich sie so gern, doch heute Scheute ich sehr vor ihr
