I stagger in desolation To find you in isolation Doomed was I, to want that which cannot be They tell me, ‘beware!’ They not know of the depth of you
They tell me, ‘a love you shall not utter, my dear, you cannot alter!’ I tell them what a sweet sweet living they waste Not to have their heart beat for you
They ordained me to change the ballad They showed me the way to Lethe I sang the only ballad my heart fathoms And showed them my way to Acheron
So in anguish, I dwell! To solely love you In the abyss of my heart
But the illusion of us Is all there is A secret garden you are Behind the door of my soul
