We have revived the water or perhaps it simply woke up on its own
Anticipatingly... it's murmuring now along its ancient bed
Where is the stone... the tower... that worships and reveres us?
No such a stone is here, I swear... we're feeling that there should
On hottest rods we're shooting through the night along a private garden-way
Though we no longer have any business being here
On the left-hand side the greenhouse of a market garden
What fragile shoots are sheltered there?!
Merry Rock dressed in the midnight gown of tears
He is sitting on the floor and cries
His eyes are gazing at the western sky
Oh everything seems lost to him
Tapping his shoulder gently
My desire hardly concealed
You've done a lot already, and much more you will achieve!
Sweet syrup consolation is dripping from my mouth
Can I, myself, believe this solemn vow?
I shattered all the mirrors fearfully hoping
That they won't be able to remember my face
Darkest of all lights
Most greedy to embrace
Surrounded by demons
Or breathing in life
ย
Between the tides the time seems endlessly
The force of habit or whatever
Pulled me back into a well-known pain
What uses the knowledge of my progression
When the old world is gone
Without a new in sight, with my new found life
I am homeless again, again
