about

A song about loss.

lyrics

Und der Sommer war gebrochen,
als dein Blick die Seele traf,
nachdem er die Haut durchstochen,
Gleichsinns Trost, der mich umgab.

Denn als du meinen Kern entflammt,
da floh die Sonne krank vor Neid.
Größ're Wärme mir bekannt,
entschied sich nie für diesen Leib.

Und die Hoffnung wuchs gen Himmel
trieb ihre Zweige durch mein Hirn.
Rankte nach Utopias Sphär'
den Morgenstern dort zu berühren.

Am Anfang stand ein Traum so zart,
der wie so oft am Ende starb.
Doch war es dieser Traum allein,
der meinen Namen lautlos sprach.

Die Nächte werden länger.
Meine Wurzeln sterben ab.
Das Ende kommt von innen her.
Die Blätter fallen mir vom Kopf.

Und die Grenze war gezogen,
als der Fuß sie übertrat,
als die Linien sich verwoben,
meine Hand in deiner lag.

Die Nächte werden länger.
Meine Wurzeln sterben ab.
Das Ende kommt von innen her.
Die Blätter fallen mir vom Kopf.

Wenn er nun an den Frühling denkt,
dann fällt um ihn das Laub.
Egal wie laut er nach ihr ruft,
die Sonne, sie bleibt taub.

Ein letztes Wort, ein letzter Blick,
und der Mensch gehört dem Schmerz.
Der Sommer will ihn nicht zurück,
in ihm wohnt nun der Herbst.
