Engel Aus Kristall

Athos:
All these images, they haunt me
they flash in my mind
like a mirror of her
but wherever I flee
Day by day and everywhere
her image appears before me again
as clear as crystal
I still wonder
how could it happen,
how could such great love turn into such hatred
I can't forget her
no matter how hard I try
Every word, every thought, everything just brings back memories of her

My angel of crystal
shattered into a hundred thousand shards
and cut deep into my heart
My angel of crystal
The hatred darkened the sun and the world turned black
She broke at our shared original sin
My angel of crystal

I tell myself, the blame was on her
If she hadn't lied to me
she would still be with me
But I wonder, what would I have done in her place
maybe I would have stayed silent too
Like my angel of crystal
All her tears
they are countless
her wings were broken and her body tortured
The sharp shards cut relentlessly into me
and the merciless shadows of memory
they haunt me

My angel of crystal
shattered into a hundred thousand shards and cut deep into my heart
My angel of crystal
The hatred darkened the sun and the world turned black
She broke at our shared original sin
My angel of crystal

She was everything that ever mattered to me in life
I would have given my life just for her
She is still with me in a ghostly way
Give me strength to break free from her

My angel of crystal
She plucked the brightest stars from me until she shattered
My angel of crystal
Tell me God why you don't spare me from this agony
Everyone brings their own angel down
My angel of crystal
My angel of crystal
My angel of crystal
