Striving to catch my breath

And not to lose my head

At the point of dying of thirst

While the water is around my neck

Lost my foothold in the deep

With no mercy from beneath

Lost my voice crying for help

Waiting for the saving hand

When the waves are closing

Above my head

You’re the one who brings me

Back from the dead

Enemies on every side

Who hate me without reason

They want me to give back

What’s never been taken

The mockers sing about me

I’m the song of the drunkards

I’ve become an alien

I’m a stranger to my brothers

Cains of this day

Seeking my life

Hating the cause

That drives me inside

Cains of this day

Seeking my life

Hating the cause

That drives me inside

A flame inside consumes me

A flame inside

A flame inside consumes me

A flame inside

When the waves are closing

Above my head

You’re the one who brings me

Back from the dead

When wolves and vultures are

Circling around me

You come near and

Make them flee

When the waves are closing

Above my head

You’re the one who brings me

Back from the dead
