Today at daybreak
I lost my shadow of hope
I entangled myself in the nets
Being too lazy to disentangle though
And as if under a spell
I forgot the order of days
Is it my birthday today
Or the day of my death?
I am all alone in this world
Only emptiness awaits me ahead
Is it the roof or a thin line
Under my feet?
I am nearly God's equal
I am higher than a king
I will put my foot on the edge
And say: "Hello, Earth!"
And then at one stroke
I will solve all of my problems
By my imperishable ashes
And in the end I will sin
I know that sooner or later
Whether you believe me or not
It will come anyway -
The birthday of my death...
