Dust Of Life

The marks of life burnt into
The bleeding flesh, the crying soul
The wounds and pain relieved by you
Gave me the strength to reach my goal.

The spell of the thoughts
They never will know
The might of the spirit
They never will share.

With their feet on the ground
They never will touch the stars
Wherever they turn to
I've been there long before.

But those who reached my heart
Encouraged me to carry on
Anyone who touched my wit
Became a mate, a chosen one
Hail to you out there
Somewhere in the dust of life
I bend my knee respectfully
To you out there, you gods, you friends.

To walk the path that`s not illuminated
Requires strength that feeds on me
To break the rules with pride and willingly
Brings on their hate and jealousy
Not to be just one of the common herd
Not to let others control my fate
They don't understand and they do not accept me
And in the shades the vultures wait.

But those who reached my heart
Encouraged me to carry on
Anyone who touched my wit
Became a mate, a chosen one
Hail to you out there
Somewhere in the dust of life
I bend my knee respectfully
To you out there, you gods, you friends.
