Lost in abyss of speech, earnestness in my face, you should die by my hand
A world unknown by man, a world beyond all suffering, born of divine humour
I can’t help it either, that Adam ate an apple, but I’ll have to pay all the same
Life was always frightful, we all cannot help it, I’m responsible all the same
Condemned to live
'Cause we are guilty
The everlasting war, between humane and divine, eternity and time
Better learn to listen, have no other disire, than to pay and to pay and to pay
Understand it all, I will learn to love, the world of pleasure and dancing
Intoxicated warmth, the sinner’s bound for hell, but I’m glad to take a kiss with me
Condemned to live
'Cause we are guilty
You know where this other world lies, the world of your own soul, leave the farce of reality behind you
Man’s heart contracted, by those kinds of fears, from his former, former life
An agony to witness, the fantastic extent, to which I learned to belie myself
Far deeper and stronger, more awful than hell, I burned in the flame of love, the flame of love
Condemned to live
'Cause we are guilty
