So Wide the World

You are running now, locked by your sorrow
Oh, you didn't want to betray your faith
You cannot even think of the light of tomorrow
You are ashamed of being afraid.

So wide the world, you found your past
In a dark corner, waiting for the promise
You hadn't faced up, it was your last
And there you calmly waited for the demise.

Loved, unbroken, your perfect chain
She was the only one you could believe
Now she's left you, never thought of your pain
And you wonder how you will live.

So wide is the world, you will find someone else.
I am loved already, go ahead and forget
And do not even dare to stop and rest
You never now how far you can get.

Never silent, your heart pounds
And it rises, brighter than the sun
You are cursed with never healing wounds
And there you disappear, you're gone.

So wide the world, you cannot even think
And I am here, always at hand.
But this time, I'm not here to make you sink
And not even to help you, my forgotten friend.
