Lacrimosa
Facade
Silent words
My hands are bursting
As I write these lines
But I guide the pen
Since my tongue fails me
As I write these lines
But I guide the pen
As my tongue fails me
/>Only words creep onto the sheet
But the soul is wildly inflamed
Only once did I desire her
Only once - now and again and again
I banished her from my heart< br/>But it burned me so deeply
These words remain silent
For my mouth will not wake them
So they crawl back to me
And ultimately tear my heart apart< br/>Only once did I desire her
Only once now and again and again
But I never want to miss this pain
Because it is all that I have left of her
>Only once did I desire her
Only once - now and again...
[English translation:]
[Silent Words]
My hands burst
As I write these lines
The pen writes on
As my tongue fails
Mere words creep out onto the page
But my soul is a raging fire
Once alone did I desire her
Once alone - over and over
From my heart I banished her
But I'm burned deep by her flame
These words remain silent
My mouth will not give them life
So they come creeping back to me
To tear my heart to shreds
But I would not forgot this pain
For it is all I have left of her
