In this ruin was a road
in these stones stood
Some man's bome
through this pane of glass
a light was glowing
into summer nights long past
all the quiet years I've known
now lie buried Somewhere here
in the dryness of a peace
that flowed so free
in the graveyard of the free
in these eyes a pictures
still lives of everything that was
and inside me I know that
somewhere still survives
and the dark is falling
like it's alway fallen
and stars still rise anew
but the dawn that follows
only show me ruins
and the view leaves me so cold
in these broken bones a life
that makes do with what he can
in this silence still the echoes
of our lives always rising
in my ears still ringing
in my ears still ringing
