Accept regards sent from a lonely wolf like me Regards sent without a single word At the end of the day, a cost dispute is just poverty, Again here comes the Sabbath, and we are separate. Four years have passed since the day you left home And in the closet hangs a single dress, It’s nightfall. There sits the Prince of Verse Surrounded by four walls, entirely alone. What have you solved there? You too alone each evening Sit in front of that stupid TV square A cost dispute, like a double sword, is cutting Inflicting injuries on either side. A newborn wonders about our strange existence And someone thinks, for what purpose was he born? Do you still remember our bouts of silence? Descending here again comes the Sabbath Queen, forlorn Gone are those days of anger, of blind jealousy And something inside me has vanished in its prime If sadness has passed away, so soon will ecstasy My girl of innocence, from time to time |
