Guilt
(Østby / Khan)
I have crossed
the ultimate limit today
(a war is half-way won)
time and time again
I've said to myself;
there's a time
and place for everyone
frozen flame subsides in hunger
my heartbeat lingers as I wonder;
could it be that my affection lies ?
I will have to try to comfort you
what is on your mind ?
as I woke this morning
in the flare of my shame
(the claws of night
still within reach)
I possessed the powers
to arise from the pain
there's a time
and place for all and each
consciousness abash inside me
tears assunder, pleads me guilty
could it be that my affection lies ?
I will have to try to comfort you
what is on your mind ?
on an empty stage the play goes on
I applaud the actors
as they slowly pass
guess it lies
in mankinds constitution
the vivid dreams ... they seldom last
