Ray of light wanders
over the strange land of your face
Soon you will wake up into the pale morning;
You wonder what you will do today,
where your heart is straying,
like all those mute objects
that won't make the room into a home
You slide over the cold floor
You open your eyes like a window
It's raining sparsely on the roofs
The birds go, leave
this town of yours behind
refrain:
Soon the earth is covered in snow
maybe the whiteness comforts it
You long for somebody to love
You long for the drunkenness of oblivion,
every morning a little more cruel
You long for a god of the broken ones,
every morning a little more cruel
Being frightened that soon a new day
is dawning from behind the horizon
Ray of light wanders
over the cold land of your body
Have you given up entirely
when all of the fear inside you
only believes in the coldness outside
and frozen heart begs;
I wish I would be gone but I can't get away, no, no
If two fall for the sake of beauty
Serving one another in the night
If two fall for the sake of beauty
Soon it will betray them while laughing brightly
refrain
