Journey

(M: Marschner/T: Swars)

 

Is this a butterfly outside? - No, it isn't one
Is this a cascade out of there? - No, it is my tear
Is this a cross flagging this place? - No, (now) it's yours

Is this a tear, there on you face? - Yes, I cry

 

I remebered the time when my journey began

Unforgotten things I had done, your son

Mistakes had never been corrected, infected of pride,

Faults, where I'd never said sorry to you, now I do

Now I am dead and you can't understand my feelings, they're bad

So many things not done, so many words not said

I died and went up to heaven, I know you cried

 

Is this a bird flying outside? - No, it isn't one

Is this a leave falling down? - No, it is my hope

Is this the wind, let you hair wave? - No, it's my breath

Is this your hand, touching my grave? – Yes, I cry

 

The last I'd seen was your face, till I went to God's place

God shaked hands with me, he said I'm dead

I couldn't believe, and looked in his eyes, he winked

He gave me the chance, go threw the time of my decline

I went back to the day, when my journey began,

I locked in your fond eyes, your son

Again I jumped, again you cried, again I was at God's side

 

As suicider escaped from life, everything at every time

You were pain in my neck Now, I know

It was my fault, my selfhood depressed me, the result

That my afflicted soul may rest in peace

 

Let me rise! - Your death need not be disguised

I'm alone! - You aren't, I had shown

I want to live! - You got the chance, I can give

I'm dead! - Everything (is) possible you said

Why should I take the blame? - It's yours!

 

Is this rain, falling from the clouds? - No, it isn't rain

Is this a rainbow at the sky? - No, it's my mind

Is this a candle in your hands? - No, it's your flame of life

Is this the way, my journey ends? - Yes, I cry
