In a Swoon Life´s bearing down upon me But I won´t do anybody harm no more I´m closing my eyes yet I can see The invisible sign upon the unlocked door I´m freezing, starving, burning, locked in an open room My universe stops turning; I´m living in a swoon An anaestetic Impact full scale upon my inner self Subdues the pain of setting broken bones And memories from the topmost shelf, long lost in lives long gone Come tumbling to create my chairn like gray uncaring stones. Disoriented in a black lagoon I´m diving for the ground Down to the last the big buffoon I die without a sound and see to what an endless swoon depression may amount But in the blackness I give names to all the stars I count. The doorstep though I will not cross I´ll take the brickwalls down And crush the bricks to white hot dust; remains of god and hope. I don´t believe I do not hope for peace of mind´s my goal And proudly wear the battle scars imprinted on my soul.
