Verse 1
I fell so low I saw the bottom of the sky,
The city screamed, "You're nobody"—I became the first.
Mama prayed while I was ashes,
Now my pain is fuel for the light.
If I disappear, don't look for me there,
Where fears break people in half.
I started a line—finish it, brother,
Tell me, who will I become when...
Chorus
When I tire of everything?
Where can I get the strength now, give me an answer.
When I tire of everything?
Where can I get the strength now, give me an answer.
Verse 2
I know that I can make it through!
That I will ignite the perpetual motion machine of fate!
But eternal sleep won't let me go
And takes me into darkness.
And I will kindle my soul
To an eternal flame,
Opening it up to the whole world,
And igniting sadness—
Starting joy!
Chorus (repeat)
When I tire of it all?
Where can I find the strength now, give me an answer.
When I tire of it all?
Where can I find the strength now, give me an answer.
Bridge
For life is ablaze, lighting a light!
And Mama will tell me where the fire of hope burns,
Where my former doubts will remain...
Outro
With a new wind, I fly away again.
Where are you, my dear—
I miss you.
I read old letters again,
I remember how I miss you!
