The world is filled with cracks through which I can escape;
Your word have carried me upon one more of those trails.
The land is dry to us, I fail to see to what avail
We walk apart parallel to the truth that keeps us here.
The distant line, horizon, that now draws across the sea...
My eyes have reached out my body in the hope that it could flee.
Whenever I have tried, when I wanted to get there,
A cloud had formed in my mind, no longer was I aware:
Between tangible reality
And a vanishing dream,
The path of least resistance
Still leads me up the hill.
Now a witness of my own being in change,
I no longer mould to all the forms;
I, this dreary cage.
The world is painted black and white, a moon in the lake;
Your word have brought me where I watch the mirror pearl.
The waters are appeased tonight, I can see it all too clear:
We walk apart parallel to the truth that keeps us here.
The distant line, horizon, an illusion of infinity...
My eyes have followed its line only hoping that they could see
Some form of higher reason that lie in stable shapes,
But the staring threw me off and no longer was I aware:
Between tangible reality
And a vanishing dream,
The path of least resistance
Still leads me up the hill.
Between tangible reality
And a vanishing dream,
The path of least resistance
Still leads me up the hill.
No longer a witness of my own being in change,
Moulding anew to all the forms,
I, this merry cage.
