Fly out of your cage Leave eighteen years of pain behind And feel the wind under your wings Victim of life, you’re free now Breathe the clean air – sweet smell of death Sundown is here – Another one rises
Pain, sweet pain You’re too much for me Pain, sweet pain You’ll set me free
Nothing is to stay You wander on You couldn’t wait Please wait for me I ask the stars: Where have you gone? What’s in the next world? Will we ever meet again?
Like a bird flying to the moon You never reached it - Your hunger was your doom Doomed to live or forced to die In this cage you were entrapped What did you see when your dreams held you wake? What did you say to the ghosts in your head?
Pain, sweet pain You’re too much for me Pain, sweet pain You’ll set me free
You drowned in your own blood and tears Once you have jumped there is no way back
All these illusions, trying to make it right But it feels wrong, wrong to say goodbye My beloved stranger – Nobody knew what happened I hope you can tell me later I don’t mourn your death – I just don’t know why You were always close but still so far away
Pain, sweet pain You’re too much for me Pain, sweet pain You’ll set me free
Nothing is to stay You wander on You couldn’t wait Please wait for me I ask the stars: Where have you gone? What’s in the next world? Will we ever meet again?
