Passion Lyrics
The passion I once had is now the ashes in my vault
I'm looking out of the window
Which consists of fragments
I'm going out of the door
Where the axe of death passes me its hand
I repress my daily routine
But I tolerate it still
Where is my passion
I once had?
I ask you
'Cause you support the guilt
Where is my passion
I once had?
I'm too sensitive for this world
The enthusiasm that I felt when I was young
Is now hatred
I repress it
But the frustration is too strong
Where is my passion
I once had?
I ask you
'Cause you support the guilt
Where is my passion
I once had?
Why don't you redeem me from this torment?
Give me a new life where I'll find my old passion
If you don't help me, I'll manage to help myself
But then I'll be victorious
Where is my passion
I once had?
I ask you
'Cause you support the guilt
Where is my passion
I once had?
Where is my passion?
Where is my passion?
Where is my passion?
Where is my passion?
Where is my passion?
Where is my passion?
Where is my paaaaaaaaaa-?
Where is my passion
I once had?
I ask you
'Cause you support the guilt
Where is my passion
I once had?
Which consists of fragments
I'm going out of the door
Where the axe of death passes me its hand
I repress my daily routine
But I tolerate it still
I once had?
I ask you
'Cause you support the guilt
Where is my passion
I once had?
The enthusiasm that I felt when I was young
Is now hatred
I repress it
But the frustration is too strong
I once had?
I ask you
'Cause you support the guilt
Where is my passion
I once had?
Give me a new life where I'll find my old passion
If you don't help me, I'll manage to help myself
But then I'll be victorious
I once had?
I ask you
'Cause you support the guilt
Where is my passion
I once had?
Where is my passion?
Where is my passion?
Where is my passion?
Where is my passion?
Where is my passion?
Where is my paaaaaaaaaa-?
I once had?
I ask you
'Cause you support the guilt
Where is my passion
I once had?

“Passion” is about the loss of vitality and the search for redemption. The narrator mourns the enthusiasm of youth, now replaced by hatred, repression, and frustration. The refrain — “Where is my passion I once had?” — is both lament and accusation, directed outward at those who “support the guilt” and inward at the self.
The song oscillates between despair and defiance: the plea for someone to “redeem me from this torment” is followed by the declaration that, if abandoned, the narrator will “help myself” and emerge “victorious.” This tension between dependence and self‑assertion mirrors the broader themes of the album The Scapegoat’s Agony — the struggle between collapse and survival, denial and confrontation.
Track #6 from the album “The Scapegoat’s Agony”:
Having rid his deeply troubled mind of any and all pestering ruminations, the unnamed antihero turns his attention to his complete and utter lack of emotional well-being.
