The Harrowing Years |
This I have learnt: |
World forces all of us down |
The fleeing years bend our backs |
Love but smears our hearts |
Here I now lie still like a broken bow |
Soul sullen and rigid with the will to die |
Sighing after the days long since gone |
Cursing every step on this ill-fated trail |
In vain I try to forget |
In vain I try to forgive |
Black bird from evening sky |
Raven from heaths of night |
Come and take my cares |
Carry away the grief |
Bereave me of my woes |
Rend off these earthly throes |
Fly them to deepest lakes |
To the starlit shores |
This I have learnt: |
Even the sweetest wine turns sour |
We work our fingers to the bone |
All our efforts of no avail |
Here we all are but troubled guests |
On darkling earth |
Lost echoes that pine away |
Into the dusk |
Nothing more than the wind to rely on |
Nothing more than the death |
To comfort us in the end |
In vain I try to forget |
In vain I try to forgive |
Black bird from evening sky |
Raven from heaths of night |
Come and take my cares |
Carry away the grief |
Bereave me of my woes |
Rend off these earthly throes |
Fly them to deepest lakes |
To the starlit shores |
This I have heard: |
All ends in serene sleep |
All these sorrows are washed away |
As we lapse into the night |
As we lapse into the night |
But I know it’s a lie |
I know it’s a lie |
