Who is the old man
Who fills my heart with greatest pain
Yet his name remains unheard
I look at you and true tears shake
My eternal Saturnworld
Who is the old man
Whose picture burned itself down to the bottom of my soul
You push me back and raise me up
The criteria for both I long to know
Who are you I worship
What is the name of the one I saw
Tell me how to reach you
To you I'd bow my head in awe
You speak to me but what is it I hear
We have never really touched
Such is the design of my greatest fear

Cruel cruel cruel
A veil I cannot penetrate
In different worlds we dwell
Attempting to dissolve what separates
I force my face against this strangest membrane-wall
And desperately I call for you
From the darkest depths of my lonely soul
The mist of the dimensions
Through which to glance it seems not allowed
Or maybe it's just that our "level" is of no
-interest as it is simply too low
Is it true that only the mirrors' strength
Can conquer the mist and then be therefore received
You turn around the illusion of a voice
My desire crowned by another defeat

If doubt walks in
I am growing weak in fear
"one day all pictures fade"
Lying down
Looking inside
I call my dead lover in his grave
My eyes have caught a glimpse of you
Now I devour myself to embrace your peace
The distance grows
We drift apart
What is the use of eyes if they cannot see
Hear me in my darkness
Please wait for me
I'll find the way
I promise
I shall resist the tides
Until I'm finally united with you again
