Oh, thou depressed soul
Which makes me feel neither empty nor whole
Have I not yet paid the toll?
Or must I seclude myself more in the darkest depths as a mole?
Thine praises shall I extol
If only a diamond would create from this coal.
If only I knew my role.

Role
Oh, thou depressed soul
Which makes me feel neither empty nor whole
Have I not yet paid the toll?
Or must I seclude myself more in the darkest depths as a mole?
Thine praises shall I extol
If only a diamond would create from this coal.
If only I knew my role.
