Sopor Aeternus If Loneliness Was All
Imagine what it would be like if loneliness was all
...! No fulfillment, nor hope inside, could I endure
this sadest fate if loneliness was all ...?
(scene cut)
"Will I ever find the one I've waiting for a thousand
years?"
but the answer to this question lies within the
confines of your (hopes and) fears.
"Heal me, feel me, reveal and seal me! Shed a light
upon my lonely soul!"
But there is no-one (no other being) on the outside to
make you whole ...

"Twelve faces shape the unholy circle, one mask for any
opportunity. This sphere must remain incomplete ...-
(as) in its centre the thirteenth mask is me."
If love was something I could feel, at least some kind
of cheerfulness ...- but i feel nothing, drowned in
pain, half-frozen in my emptiness
Beyond this veneer of friendless lies my true face,
that no-one knows. This mask's a lie, obvious and sad,
my heart is empty and all is cold.
The same stage:
(on the staircase, some other night)
Imagine, what it would be like, if love was really all
...! Then I'd truly be alone without a resting place or
a final home, if love was really all ...
"Confide a secret to me, and I'll keep it to myself!
I'm like a temple built of sadness, trustworthy like a
grave ..."
