Can you tell me my friend
What dreams really are
Let me put an end
To these stupid thoughts of yours

Dreams depict my long departed hope
For everything I’d wish it would come true
They tighten up around my neck the rope
Can’t you see they’re killing me, you fool!

They impulsively make me feel
That the ashes can turn into something solid once again
That there might be some life left for me to steal
And with such misconceptions I rush to encounter the dead

A lethal virus it is, that warps my brain cells
And devours my existence
Venom that brings me closer to the tolling of the bells
And deceives me with persistence

Every dream brings me one step closer to the end
For it diverges from my reality
Every dream brings me one step closer to the end
For it reminds me of this life’s vanity
