lying awake, a sultry summer night
an unsureness deeply tormenting me
about what was right and what was not.

sleepless roaming through the rain
loosing myself in oppressing thoughts
I will never get away from.

is life determined?
or can we change our fates?
so what would be different?
what would not be the same?
asking myself about the scale
of trivial decisions I once made.
every single way we choose to go
excludes a million others.

chances that I did not seize
gates I shut without noticing
what might have become of us?
how would our future be?
fatalities I could not feel
were leading me to nothingness
would I recognize myself today?
would I still be the one I was?

you will always follow
turning my unsureness to pain
wash away my sorrow
like watercolours through the rain
can you hear me calling?
after all what will remain?
everything is falling
relentless as the summer rain.

seasons are about to change
turning from summer to fall
yesterday seems so long gone
with tomorrow yet to come
eyes are closed - I see you there
standing and smiling upon me
seconds when it all makes sense
can last for eternity.

there are wounds that do not heal
this pain will never pass
remembering the words you said
the smile you sent to me
now I'd give everything to let you know
how much I would miss you
and as silence shakes my world
the angels cry in heaven.

you will always follow
turning my unsureness to pain
wash away my sorrow
like make-up through the rain
can you hear me calling?
after all what will remain?
everything is falling
as the inexorable summer rain.

chances that I did not seize
gates I shut without noticing -
and as silence shakes my world
the angels cry in heaven...
