No one knows for how long
We've been seeking for an opening
Working our way through the thicket of our thoughts
Pulled under by the marsh of this dreadful course
Stripping ourselves of longings and remorse
It has been a while
It's been a while since we've last took a breath
And felt the time and the urge
To indulge into what we've become
To hesitate in front of the truth
Gathering the courage to face another traversal
Across the phantom of our common solitude
Moving upwards, from the undermost gorge
We've sculpted our faces with the mud
Where we've been left to wallow
Hanging by a thread
Suspended on the edges
Of the clefts in our skulls
A pale glimmer of light is piercing through the dark
Faintly carrying us along our path
A fleeting iridescence
From the black beyond
Reminding us
We have learned to live in loss
No one knows for how long
We've been seeking for an opening
Working our way through the thicket of our thoughts
Pulled under by the marsh of this dreadful course
Stripping ourselves of longings and remorse
It has been a while
It's been a while since we've last took a breath
Since we've last took a breath
Of light
With all this mud let us rebuild our world
Liquid gold seeps from the deepest cut
And we still haven't said our last word
May this gleam forever shine on
To hesitate in front of the truth
Gathering the courage to face another traversal
Across the phantom of our common solitude
Moving upwards, from the undermost gorge
We've sculpted our faces with the mud
Where we've been left to wallow
Hanging by a thread
Suspended on the edges
Of the clefts in our skulls
