Lyrics: Oliver Viert
Music: Oliver Viert/Florian Franzen/Timo Bonner
I traced my shadows through the years
A fragile line that bends and breaks
The mirror shivers when it hears
The cost of all the roads I take
Will I be more than a fading sound,
A whisper lost in shifting ground?
Do I exist in the lives I’ve touched,
Or vanish when they’ve had enough?
I won’t be weighed by borrowed hands!
No echo tells me who I am!
The mark I leave, I choose to give,
Not theirs to keep, but mine to live!
The ink I spilled on borrowed time
Drips into cracks the earth won’t keep
A fleeting spark, a fragile sign,
A promise buried in its sleep
I traced my shadow through the years
A fragile line that bends and breaks
The mirror shivers when it hears
The cost of all the roads I take
I won’t be weighed by borrowed hands!
No echo tells me who I am!
The mark I leave, I choose to give,
Not theirs to keep, but mine to live!
I’m more than just a fading sound,
Not lost beneath the shifting ground.
I exist in the life I live,
Not what the world decides to give
I won’t be weighed by borrowed hands!
No echo tells me who I am!
The mark I leave, I choose to give,
Not theirs to keep, but mine to live!
Will I be more than fading sound,
A whisper lost in shifting ground?
Do I exist in the lives I’ve touched,
Or vanish when they’ve had enough?
