Wie Tief? Lyrics

Cover art for Wie Tief? lyrics by Eisbrecher

my English translation:

No freedom in empty eyes It is the truth that you told me No pity for this cowardice Cold mercy leads me into light All my hesitation, all my thoughts All the years, so senselessly wasted I think that I feel, I creep and I root after that which I once was, but there is nothing more there I hate that, I curse, to lose myself on the search You alone can free me from this need How deep is your death - How endless the eternity How deep is a dream -- When do you wake up No wisdom allows me still to believe in the longing that stabs me Black souls in an endless ice age Hot hope takes the vision from us All my longing, all my prayers The last chance, so senselessly missed I think that I feel, I dig and I root after that which once was, but there is nothing more there I scratch until I bleed and search the nothingness for good You alone can free me from this undertow Do you hear me - Wake up I feel, I creep to you in the deep I search, I call after you - When will you wake up?
