|
The waves slide down |
|
On the crackblack shore, |
|
And the sea rolls on |
|
Into emptiness. |
|
To love is to lose, |
|
And to lose is to die. |
|
All our meanings dissolve |
|
Into emptiness. |
|
No flags now fly |
|
In the weeping wind. |
|
The dry earth is covered |
|
With emptiness. |
|
When I meet you again, |
|
I will wear only lies |
|
As the signs and the sighs |
|
Of emptiness. |
|
You believe in a creed; You believe in a war. And you kneel at the altar Of emptiness. |
|
Hark, Hark, the dogs do bark. |
|
Pain is coming to town. |
|
When I meet you again, |
|
I will wear only lies, |
|
As the signs and the sighs |
|
Of emptiness. |
|
Of emptiness |
