Oh, my lover's heart is like a fortress And when the gates part, only then can I enter And the power consumes me like a raging fire And it burns completely with a selfish desire And I lay in the ashes like a feather bed My spirit is broken, but I am not dead Oh, my lover's heart is like the ocean And when the waters part, only then can I see in And the darkness surrounds me like a cold mystery And I float like a ghost, aimless in the deep Then I sink to the bottom, down to the seabed My spirit is broken, but I am not dead From my lover's heart, I cannot break free From the very start, it took a hold of me And now I'm shackled and bound with unbreakable chains And I see freedom around me, but here I still remain So, I lie like a dog at the foot of your bed My spirit is broken, but I am not dead No, my spirit is broken, but I am not dead
