[Intro] [Acoustic Guitar, Soft Cello & Sad Oud Intro] [Slow & Melancholic Tempo] [Verse 1] [smooth, laid-back African patois, slurred vocal style] Lost in ruins, me I am bound, Scattered years upon de ground. Am I innocent or blind? Faded shadow left behind? To de mountains I have fled, Maybe forgotten, left for dead... Widout ya, an endless pain, Widout ya, I bleed in vain. [Verse 2] [smooth, laid-back African patois, slurred vocal style] A cold word is all ya leave, Burnin' slow in what I grieve. Into ashes I am turned, Is dis living, while I'm burned? Tears are fallin' to me heart, Sighs won't tear dis cold apart, In dis riddle, lost in dark. [Chorus] [Explosive Build-Up, Powerful hypnotic lazy vocal, heavy African accent, effortless flow] Broke de branch I held so tight, Never passin', dark as night! Jus' one breath is left in me, Time was wrong, n' so were we! (So were we... So were we!) [Bridge] [Rhythmic Chant, Pulsing Bass & Drums] [smooth, laid-back African patois, slurred vocal style] Like a lie... Like a wrong... Endless winter, far too long... Fire burns, den dies away, Trapped in maze, I cannot stay. (Cannot stay... Cannot stay...) Deeper silence, deeper pain! [Music Stops] Even mountains deaf... Where do I remain? [Final Chorus] [Maximum Power, Full Ensemble & Emotional Crying, hypnotic lazy vocal, heavy African accent, effortless flow] Broke de branch I held so tight, Never passin', dark as night! Jus' one breath is left in me, Time was wrong, n' so were we! (So were we... So were we!) [Outro] [Fading Oud & Acoustic Guitar] Even mountains deaf... (It's gone...) [Fade Out] [End]
