lyrics

The clouds are low today
And fly around my head
Days are getting shorter now
And there is no way back

The hand is moving on
Much faster than before
And all I know to be in front
Is that you have to pass that final door

A shadow came to coat you
To creep into your flesh
To poison every living cell
Entangled in a mesh
I see you, hear you
Still in my head
You're far from this world and far away from here
Somehow I can feel you are still near
I know there is a time
When we will meet again
You're waiting on the other side
I couldn't say goodbye my friend

A footprint in the soil
Will be covered by dust
A candle flame that spreads its light
Will be blown out by a gust
A human's legacy
Is kept inside our hearts
A memory can still remain
Though we drift apart

The chapter's over now
The last page has been read
A lonely place below the trees
This picture stays inside my head
I wonder where you are
I wonder what you feel
No echoe's coming over from infinity
There's nothing to reveal
