You never were aware of me since you died certain years before my birth I’m about your age now, soon to attain the days you lost your vital spark Although you‘re not my father, I’m nevertheless your daughters‘ brother We will never meet in person and I’ll never lay roses, just thorns to your grave
It was more than three decades ago they found you close to the woods Your gaunt dead body, held by nothing but this plaited noose My sister was with them, till today she failed to forget To her you will never age, your face will never grow old
These days of autumn at least wrecked their lives And in the long run, somehow it too shattered mine There’s no way anybody will get well again And in no way, anybody will be the same again
There is this graveyard far up in the mountains We met up there in last winter’s coldest night When mom brought you dewy flowers Like she did in all the years before
There’s so much death up there Especially at night Maybe that’s the reason It’s the only place I feel home I can totally get your motives As I know of severity too I was always aware that nothing ends with suicide I was always aware that people die from sadness
We move up to the gallows, straight up to the noose In this state of depression there’s no time left to loose So we pour this tree, this life of reckless dedication How couldn’t we? Our coffin’s shaped by its wood
I don’t know if you care But your old cabin still guards the gates to the woods It‘s still watching the mountains grow Watching all these years passing by And after death almost seized it We gave our best to fill it with life It still looks the same like back in the old days As you‘d have left it just last JuneTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
