Patch

[Verse 1] A piece of your soul was torn away, They say: “Come on, just live on...” But a patch is an unreliable thing: It’ll tear off — and not only here. They stitched you up alive, in haste, Only the thread turned out too thin. And now emptiness blows through your chest, Longing scorches you from within. [Chorus] And they keep saying: “Wait, it will heal! Time heals, come on, just forward!” But where now is that abandoned edge, Where the days burned? Where is that paradise? This patch will crack in the wind, And darkness will crawl along the seams. If you tear the zenith from the sky — Then where will the soul fly? [Verse 2] Every step now is thin ice, You barely step — and it starts to crack. Someone cut a piece out of the heart, Put it in your hands and simply said: “Here...” But how to live with emptiness inside? Only thoughts alone in the night. Help me, lead me through the dark, Teach me to live! Show me! [Chorus] And they keep saying: “Wait, it will heal! Time heals, come on, just forward!” But where now is that abandoned edge, Where the days burned? Where is that paradise? This patch will crack in the wind, And darkness will crawl along the seams. If you tear the zenith from the sky — Then where will the soul fly? [Outro] And no one will show the way, You’ll have to pass through this abyss. Let the bad fabric tear, Where emptiness was — steel will be. From shards and cracks of ice A new height will take shape. It will heal, the edge will scar, There will be a day, you’ll find your paradise. Breathe. Catch this light. There, beyond the sky, lives… dawn.
