Common Grave Falling From The Sky
I've died falling from the sky
Have you ever been there?
Have you ever been there?
I was there and now I am on the ground
Smashed, my pieces scattered here and there
You have shoved me
You have shoved me
And yet a moment before, we walked together
And while I'm falling through the sky
I see your face fading behind the clouds
Around me only air, air that flows fast
Like the thoughts which accompany my fall
All this seems to me so absurd
And while I'm falling through the sky
I see your face fading behind the clouds
I trusted you
I let you bring me up there
The warmth of your hand made me forget the fear
I wish it could grip me now that I'm falling
I wish it could save me before the crash
I was there and now I am on the ground
Smashed, my pieces scattered here and there
And I see the sky farther and farther
Why did you shove me?
And yet a moment before, we walked together
And while I'm falling through the sky
I see your face fading behind the clouds
Around me only air, air that flows fast
Like the thoughts which accompany my fall
All this seems to me so absurd
And while I'm falling through the sky
I see your face fading behind the clouds
I wish you could see me from up there
I wish you could hear me from up there
If you were here you would become aware
That my body doesn't bleed
That no lament comes out of my mouth
