And nevertheless
All this meaningless nonsense
Will go up in flames

And nevertheless
All this meaningless nonsense
Will go up in flames
These days never end
We will relive them again
A recurring dream
In the black forest
In your never ending eyes
Darker than the night
Just heap it all up
Set a match to the tinder
And watch the sparks fly
In the dark I fall
From this cave I never call
To the woods I crawl
And I will burn up
Down to the ground, to the dust
From the inside out
Starry sparks arise
Flaming furnace fire flies
At the day’s last sigh
Strike a single match
Set it gently on a branch
Watch the paper catch
On the horizon
Lie visions of mountain peaks
And wild fire smoke
The same orange sun
Has set these same clouds on fire
Ageless cave paintings
