The road behind is crumbling 
Time is paved by agony 
So many signs before me 
The way ahead I cannot see 
So many things that I long for 
The way ahead it ceased to be 
 
Tears of strive are falling 
A reasons shine arises 
Obsessive thoughts are calling 
Ideas just strange devices {x2} 
 
Temptation all around me 
Shall I resist Shall I give in 
Might it is the answer 
Tell me the question to begin 
Buried in time and history 
Not to strive is a sin 
 
Tears of strive are falling 
A reasons shine arises 
Obsessive thoughts are calling 
Ideas just strange devices {x2} 
 
Desire it defeats me 
Distorted pictures of my life 
An uncertain liquid 
The pool in which I have to dive 
Drowned by insane imaginations 
All what's left I have to strive 
 
Tears of strive are falling 
A reasons shine arises 
Obsessive thoughts are calling 
Ideas just strange devices {x2}
