Winterreise, Op. 89, D. 911: No. 5. Der Lindenbaum (arr. for choir)

歌詞

I stand here looking at the faces with forgotten names Oh can't you see that I am fading. I tried to love you but you only have yourselves to blame I am so tired of this masquerade. They're all around me paranoia starts this strain again Am I insane? Why am I laughing. Feel like exploding, holding back with all my discipline Don't ask me why, I'll tell you nothing. I'm walking in my frozen mind Growing colder by the step I'm talking to myself again Have I finally reached the edge. I wipe away these icy tears You know I've done my part Subzero winds they numb my fears In this winter of my heart. Please help me god I'm freezing I know it numbs my pain From the bottom of hell she's crawling Can you feel her? I know the fear of bleeding I know that pleasure is pain From the bottom of hell she's crawling Can you feel her? Lay down with a whore called darkness I know she calls your name She calls my name. Lay down with a whore called darkness She calls your name. I lock my doors up and prepare myself for lonely days I don't want to love or see the dawn A storm is coming And its going to blow you all away Why am I laughing Now that all is gone? I bid you all A cold goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
