From cradle to grave
She sings to you softly
The voice of an angel
The soul of your kin
You taste the tears
As they run down so red
You feel her soft touch
Faintly on your skin
From cradle to grave
You've entered this world
Against your own will
Listen -
The sounds of the echoes not still.
Awaken my child,
For it is your time
Go with no regrets
Neither reason nor rhyme
From cradle to grave
You have not a choice
No one will hear you
Overpowered your voice
Rise with the mountains
Sink with the lake
Don't you see?
There's no give, always take.
Your heart is a platter
From which they will feast
You must dig deep inside
To conquer your beast
Search in the shadows
For what it yours
Quick! Before they
Close up the doors
You've missed your chance
A heart that has stopped
From which blood has drained out
Every last drop.
From cradle to grave
The end is so near
So find out what matters,
And hurry, my dear.
The broken clock
May be frozen now
But time races on
Somewhere, somehow
Don't try and fight it
Don't get up and scream
Your fate is yours
Do you know what I mean?
