When a shade follows my footsteps at night
That could be you
I descend to the riverside
As I'm staring at the blackened water flow
I sense you getting close
I know you're getting close

I could reach my hand
And fool my heart one more time
I could stick to what remains…
It's helpless: our future is behind us!

You say that you go, you don't go
And you never leave a choice
You say that you need, you don't need
Though there's urgency in your voice

You've been searching for happiness
But emptiness you've found

You think you belong - no, you don't
You're still living on your own

Is there a future for me?
Is there a hope?
Sometimes illusions, they drown
And dreams are gone with the flood
