A long time have cycled
We're now grown up adults
We've seen the seasons pass
And our beloved die
What remains of us now ?
Only withering memories
Even in summer, we feel so cold and numb
Our limbs frozen by time
Can you hear the clock ticking ?
Can you feel our souls fading ?
Can you see the stars circling ?
Can you touch my fading skin ?
Can you hear bombs exploding ?
Can you feel the burning winds ?
Can you see the world dying ?
Can you touch our bones melting ?
Where are you, golden days of yore ?
Smells of primrose, hyacinths, marigolds ?
Where are you, bright nights of old ?
Chant of crickets and dancing moths ?
We harvest what we have done
But cosmic clock will never stop
Light will shine decades after us
Stars will still grow up
Even if now the skies are grey
Full of despair and disarray
Even if hope is fading away
Light always chase the darkest days
What remains of us now ?
Only withering memories
Every day it's a waltz of falling leaves
And our bygone childhood is farther every year
Can you hear the clock ticking ?
Can you feel our souls fading ?
Can you see the stars circling ?
Can you touch my fading skin ?
Can you hear bombs exploding ?
Can you feel the burning winds ?
Can you see the world dying ?
Can you touch our bones melting ?
