Time doesn't wait,
When someone goes first
Or follows
Protecting himself,
Yet someone with fate
Plays follies.
Stay close to me and don't let me down,
[A] drop of poison won't hurt; don't frown.
And still I go, and still I go,
And wicked blood in my veins's boiling,
And wicked blood in my veins's boiling.
And still I go, and still I go,
I do not know myself where I go,
I do not know myself where I go.
Fairy tale's cruel,
As if on live wire
We walk
Among phantom shapes
And black specters, grim
And ugly.
Stay close to me and don't let me down,
[A] drop of poison won't hurt; don't frown.
And still I go, and still I go,
And wicked blood in my veins's boiling,
And wicked blood in my veins's boiling.
And still I go, again I go,
I do not know myself where I go,
I do not know myself where I go.
Children are stern,
But gestures of crones
Are playful.
From under masks
Of years they give smiles, again
Crooked.
Stay close to me and don't let me down,
[A] drop of poison won't hurt; don't frown.
And still I go, and still I go,
And wicked blood in my veins's boiling,
And wicked blood in my veins's boiling.
And still I go, again I go,
I do not know myself where I go,
I do not know myself where I go.
