Life is empty, can’t remember anytime before,
On a plain lit cold December, see it evermore,
Gliding through this life, and another is a child,
and we’re doing games, and losing things,
Always playing gigs.
Somewhere in the sky, where the moon the stars shine bright,
Where the sun is shining, in the night.
I am in disgrace, yet i see a smiling face,
and i hope you let me, share your place.
I don’t live today.

Rain in the sky , make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.
Sun in the sky, make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.

Rain in the sky , make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.
Sun in the sky, make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.

Rain in the sky , make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.
Sun in the sky, make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.

Well, I lived in magic solitude
Of cloudy-looking mountains
And a lake made out of crystal raindrops …
Roaming through Space tenthousand years ago
I’ve seen the giant city of Atlantis
Sinking to eternal waves of darkness …

Somewhere in the blue distance
Are those long-forgotten trees of yore
A broken violin floating alone in December
Darkness everywhere and nothing more.

Symbol – strange Symbol – Melancholy
Painting torrid colors to a sky of green
Candle breathing one night only
Far away – in chillness – bleak – unseen …

Drifting galley – ghostlike shadow,
Sails rigged to catch and kill the Time…
Echoes wandering down an endless meadow
To call the Thing … Sublime !…
