Loblied Auf Die Zweinsamkeit

And this is the loneliness
That gave me life
Trying to escape it
I lost my hope
I cried out for love to warm me
Lost my voice and stayed silent
Restless, condemned
I dreamed the truth
I took flight
And fell to the ground

I feel no joy
I feel no joy
No life grows in me
I feel no joy
I’m tired
I’m tired
I’m tired

Caught in the web of fear
I’ve come to know myself
Unable to exist
I’m not ready to carry myself
I lie in the dirt of indifference
And live the death of forgetfulness
Am I just a creature of boredom?
Just a bad joke in an empty waiting room

I once dreamed of life
And once dreamed of love
But from life came escape
And from love grew fear...
