Bitter-sweet

Sopor Aeternus Sopor Aeternus

Well, this is such a sad affair
I've opened up my heart
Oh, so many times
But now it's closed
Oh, my dear
Every salted tear it wrings
Bitter sweet applause

But when the show is in full swing
Every once in a while
High stepping chorus lines mean I'm forgetting
Mein lullaby liebchen

How rich in contrast love can be
Sometimes I'm quite amused
To see it twist and turn
To taste both sweet and dry
These vintage years
Lovers you consume, my friend
As others their wine

Nein das ist nicht, das ende der welt
Gestrandet an leben und kunst
Und das spiel geht weiter, wie man weiss
Noch viele schönste wiedersehn

And now, as you turn to leave
You try to force a smile
As if to compensate
Then you break down and cry
