She’s sleeping, you see, asleep she fell Until morning you cannot wake her Night has curled her up Helped closing her eyes She will wake by herself when the sun will say so When birds will start calling into the sky Don’t wake her, I’m asking you please So that I won’t have to kill you
So great that she doesn’t know yet How much blood has turned into water How many souls rise each day to heavens Living so little in their bodies How many more tears will the blue sky drop Taking moist from people’s eyes That strength holds on other’s weakness And the weak is torn like paper apart I have to protect her At least cover with my own weak body So that the sticky hands of damn fear Don’t touch these sweet shoulders Let her sleep some more Let her dream of sea and wind And please, let her forgive me And I will steal her grief
I will die, tearing hearts apart If we have to kill, than do it right
For every hurt inflicted to her For every hair that falls off her head I will rub salt into your wounds Rip your stomach open with a curved knife Let her sleep some more Don’t wake her, it’s not worth it The world might still surprise her If love can open her eyes
I will die, tearing hearts apart If we have to kill, than do it right
