Warum So Tief?
Lacrimosa
Why So Deep?
Speechless again - warmly helpless - and ashamed
So I step before her today...
And so I step before you again today
Mother fear and father pain
Not adopted - no, your blood flows through my veins
Your heritage is my part
Once without fear of pain - I thought I could escape
Could escape from you and myself
But the more it drew me to her - the more
I recognized you in me
Why so deep - and why now?
Why before her - why this irony?
Why so hard - and why not simply defeated?
Must I really pay for every encounter
Forever and ever with all my love?
Once without that one final feeling - of being lost
Just once with her - no rage in chains
But I can't even deny it - that I love you
Mother fear and father pain
Why so deep - and why now?
Why before her - why this irony?
Why so hard - and why not simply defeated?
Why can't I simply deny your heritage
And waste away in life
Why so deep - and why now - mother fear tell me?
Why before her - and why this irony - father pain tell me?
Why so hard - and why not finally defeated?
Must I really pay for every encounter
Forever and ever with all my love?
Why so deep?
And why so terribly lost?
Why before her?
Why only before her?
