[Verse 1]
This I have learnt:
World forces all of us down
The fleeing years bend our backs
Love but smears our hearts
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Here I now lie still like a broken bow
Soul sullen and rigid with the will to die
Sighing after the days long since gone
Cursing every step on this ill-fated trail
[Chorus]
In vain I try to forget
In vain I try to forgive
[Post-Chorus]
Black bird from evening sky
Raven from heaths of night
Come and take my cares
Carry away the grief
Bereave me of my woes
Rend off these earthly throes
Fly them to deepest lakes
To the starlit shores
