maybe I'm brave enough
maybe I'm strong enough
maybe I'm worthy
after all

give me the chance
and give me the power
that is the only way to know

I want to be the sign
at the center of your sky

I want to be your lullaby
I want to be your night

I want to give you what you want
Tonight and every night
I want to shine

I want to be a diamond in your light

you're us
it's true

and we are you
the same bright blue

the same stardust

sometimes you're you
that's OK too

but as we know and trust
you're us

if you are quite still
you can almost hear
the sound of machines

of fear
of chaos
of hell

voices in his head
telling him to ****
and by force of will
to build
an empire of the dead

sacrifice it all
this time no one wins
even those left standing when
the dominoes fall

life is a candle
in the hand of a madman
and if you are still you can
feel the Earth tremble

I see the world
unraveling
the future
hanging by a thread

I try to memorize the spring
I hope I never will forget

the joy and hope
of innocence
new life
in the trees
on the ground

I try to walk
the Fool's calm steps
to face the sky
and not look down

my love for you
has grown
deep into my soul

that's the truth

I want to climb it
high into the sky

and at the same time
I want to tear it out
by the root

I'm tired of playing the fool
waiting for you
wasting my youth
chasing you
lost in space
like a wild goose chasing the Moon

I'm tired of wasting my time
hating you
when I'm the one who keeps choosing to lose
choosing to water a vine with no fruit

but my soul has grown too
it has grown around you

and you are oh so close to the core
evermore
too deep for me to move

we've read this story
we know how it ends

we learn this lesson
again and again

time after time
after time till the end

till no one learns anything
ever again
