lyrics

A life devoted to collect wood
For its purpose was unclear
Day by day ignored soul’s food
Emptied the whole forest dear
For you

Like prisoners long for bread
Decaying man with light marvels
All my blood was drained
And confused Paradise with sparkles
And filled my box with them

Forgive me, I choose to live at the stake
And be gone on my own sake

Miss me as you would miss a moving target
Sweep the ashes, bury the grief and forget
Because I could not escape the prison of winter

A hopeless match you could ignite
A tiny flare against cruelty
That could show you the narrow way at night
But that it would still hide your beauties
And show as well your impurities

Let me go through this part on my own
I don't want you to see the pile
Nor smell the fuel my pain sown
The spring I will see in a while
Along with fallen trees

Forgive me, I choose to live at the stake
and be gone on my own sake

Miss me as you would miss a moving target
Sweep the ashes, bury the grief and forget
Because I could not escape the prison of winter
