Life Tracing circles in empty vales, with a broken compass As distant hilltops shine With the last remaining gleams of color left in this world No crows circling above this land And no migrating birds To show the way out Watching the same day repeat again Keeping me locked in this cell Living outside time, I dwell. Preserving my mind from slowly turning insane Moments slowly vanish Each followed by their twin A never ending "now" With nothing to call "then" Today, I wander in the fog Tomorrow, I will cough the blood from my lungs A deep red to become Another shade of grey Today, my head lies on the floor My body convulsing, rejecting the poison Yet, this stream of blood will stale And won't paint the way to leave from here No escape from my circle of torment

All my ties are stretching thin Just one more step ahead, and it will all be gone! Downwards, on this road up to the sky You stand, gazing upon me Still the same expression on your face Like I was never going to leave And still The same impression in my chest Like I was never meant to stay Self-deceit Constructed emotions Deep in me I’ve always known the truth For I could never fear the pain of loss For I was always on my own A landscape of scattered ruin From bridges you tried to build To reach the lonely island On which I was drifting away Mijn bolster Als hardnekkige mist Ondoordringbaar voor haar licht Gebeiteld in weemoed Gekluisterd in verdriet Door koude omhelst De winter verstild De klauwen van duisternis Als hardnekkige mist Ondoordringbaar voor haar licht Gebeiteld in weemoed Versteend in verdriet Door koude omhelst De winter verstild

Slowly falling up Clouds like ambient fog Curvature of the earth The sky becomes my world Sense of direction lost Attachment and desire fade away Regrets, as echoes of a dream In which I dreamed of life Above - or is it below? The sea of life is boiling Full of tiny dots, connecting And later drifting apart Frenetic pulsations Perpetual stagnation It all seems so vain now Hearts broken over forged desires Minds destroyed by fabricated ambitions A game where everyone loses at the end So may you take it all from me Self-generating grief, unsolvable frustration And may you only leave the parts that are really me To make me light enough to ascend Among the stars Into stardust
