In the Blink of an Eye

Why should all the wise survive

When nothing is what it may seem?

Why do all the living die

When only the dying remain?

Helpless are the broken wishes

Dashed upon the window pane

So close! But I'm one step ahead

My shadow is all you will touch

Too late! You waited too long

I stole the freedom

You needed so much

Do you hide away from me?

There's nothing here you should ignore

Do you close your eyes on me?

You've made that mistake once before

Helpless are the shattered wishes

Dashed upon the window pane

So close! But I'm one step ahead

My shadow is all you will touch

Too late! You waited too long

I stole the freedom

You needed so much

Search far, search wide

Lying down is not a matter of pride

Look hard, look deep

Never try to take this line of retreat

Don't let the bastards grind you down

So close! But I'm one step ahead

My shadow is all you will touch

Too late! You waited too long

I stole the freedom you needed so much

So close! But I'm one step ahead

My shadow is all you will touch

Too late! You waited too long

I stole the freedom

I know that you needed so much
