Like a fairy tale with unhappy ending.

The difficult question

is eating me up inside.

If you had the chance

to choose again.

Tell me what you want.

Tell me, would you

then do it all again?

The game can teach that

some moves only destroy.

But we know so well

there are a thousand reasons.

Though my heart is bleeding

I gave my life for the short moment,

the holy moment,

when our love burned

while the time passed

from the both of us

and disappeared.

You and I:

dreams made of glass,

crushed with one blow.

We stand among the shards,

we who belong together.

Separated, we leave.
