lyrics

From the highest peaks of joy
Where I found the life in me
I looked back over that vale
A foggy landscape, so barren and bleak
From where I climbed I saw the sun
Its pleasant light to warm my heart
And in the depths I tried to leave
I recognised the pattern structures
that tore me apart

Clouds crept high above my head
The winds from valleys brought them back
And as they swept their shades about
I knew that upwards is not a one-way track
For where the mountains reach the sky
The dusky vales are never far
– just a single move
I still can lose all of my faith
Except for one, and that is you

And even here –
I can’t cry / I can’t hide / I can’t fly
Free from clouds that blur my sight

Now the fog is getting dense
To enclose me once again
The stalking shadows of my mind
Try seduction, well-known whispers of the end
But there’s still sunlight in the mist
To take my hand and guide me home
Again my feet feel far too weak
To walk this unreal path
my eyes can’t even show

And even now –
I can’t scream / I can’t see what’s real / I can’t sleep
Free from stirring, chaotic dreams

Which sometimes feel more plausible
Than this world surrounding me
Whose colours fade to formless nonsense
Breathless, never-ending scenes
To scare me into withdrawal
And alienate me from myself
My new resistance weak and bruised
Held only by my love for you
