|
Spread the fragile wings, reach for the sky |
|
Leave all sadness behind |
|
Higher and higher to reach the stars |
|
A mere butterfly in the storm of life |
|
From earth you are born |
|
And back to earth you are drawn |
|
Death's own all the same |
|
The wise, the strong, the frail |
|
Spread the fragile wings, reach for it all |
|
Sun burns the wings, greedy ones must fall |
|
A dreamer soul burns like a candle |
|
Lit from both ends |
|
Thirsty heart can never be quenched |
|
From earth you are born |
|
And back to earth you are drawn |
|
Death's own all the same |
|
The wise, the strong, the frail |
|
Remember when you were born |
|
At that same moment |
|
You were sentenced to die |
|
And to carry the burden of life |
|
Our dreams are built into castles |
|
And those walls will crumble down |
|
Nothing is forever, to each his own |
|
Spread the fragile wings, reach it for the last time |
|
The tireless hope to live a good life |
|
Our hope is in vain, our wishes will never come true |
|
Each life will end, every dream will die |
|
Remember when you were born |
|
At that same moment |
|
You were sentenced to die |
|
And to carry the burden of life |
|
Our dreams are built into castles |
|
And those walls will crumble down |
|
Nothing is forever, to each his own |
