| Who is the old man, who fills
|
| my heart with greatest pain
|
| yet his name remains unheard?
|
| I look at you and true tears shake
|
| my eternal Saturnworld.
|
| Who is the old man, whose
|
| picture burned itself
|
| down to the bottom of my soul.
|
| You push me back and raise me up,
|
| the criteria for both I long to know.
|
| Who are you I worship? |
| What is the
|
| name of the one I saw?
|
| Tell me how to reach you, to you I’d
|
| bow my head in awe.
|
| You speak to me but what is it I hear?
|
| We have never really touched…
|
| — such is the design of my greatest fear.
|
| Cruel, cruel, cruel… a veil I cannot penetrate,
|
| in different worlds we dwell,
|
| attempting to dissolve what separates.
|
| I force my face against this strangest
|
| membrane-wall and desperately I call for you
|
| from the darkest depths of my lonely soul.
|
| The mist of the dimensions
|
| through which to glance it seems not allowed,
|
| or maybe it’s just that our level is of no
|
| interest as it is simply too low.
|
| Is it true that only the mirrors’strength
|
| can conquer the mist and then be therefore received?
|
| You turn around the illusion of a voice…
|
| — my desire crowned by another defeat.
|
| If doubt walks in I am growing weak in fear…
|
| — one day all pictures fade.
|
| Lying down, looking inside
|
| I call my dead lover in his grave.
|
| My eyes have caught a glimpse of you,
|
| now I devour myself to embrace your peace.
|
| The distance grows, we drift apart.
|
| What is the use of eyes if they cannot see?
|
| Hear me in my darkness,
|
| please wait for me, I’ll find the way.
|
| I promise, I shall resist the tides,
|
| until I’m finally united with you again… |
