You still look at me when I fall to (my) knees Every day at dawn, with devotion And you look at me after dark When I wash away the dirt of the day... With a prayer In a clean robe like a loyal servant I flee into blissful sleep The morning is idyllic, inspired by love I begin my holy day Today I will praise the name of the lord The name of the lord I will humbly pronounce I go out with hope the filthiness strikes Under a black sky no one demands love Under a black sky nobody believes the truth Under a black sky nothing will ever change Like an inspired conqueror I fire up my desires Under my gaze all resistance is extinguished Heaven and hell! Spilled blood mixes with sand Sometimes you see that anger in my eyes The anger mixed with dread, mixed with fear And it's only sometimes that madness calls to me Sometimes you want me to be tender But you see blood-grey hands clenched into fists And these are just the moments when the anger is madness I am the fuse, you are the match I'm the wood you're the spark You still look at me when I fall to knees Every day at dawn, every day in chains Locked in your words, locked in my imagination In the guidance of the wise, in the oracles of the saints
