From Nothing

From Nothing

A Poem by mhylands
"

Ausnichts lyrics

"

It all adds up as time flies by

A burden I endure alone

Heavy heart and heavy stone

Ego sum Atlas Telamon

 

I cannot move forward

Bound to the past

I cannot move forward

Chained to what’s passed

 

Throw away all the mistakes I’ve made

Break free of the games I’ve played

Cleanse me now, free of thoughts decayed

Start a new page, it’s all from nothing

 

Charred

Remains

Released

I withstand the faults

 

Everywhere, everyday

Stop this geared insanity

Bleeding through, tear the stain

From the snow white fantasy

 

Ich schreibe Gesichten, aus dem Nichts

Ich spiele Leider, aus dem Nichts

Ich ebnen Wege, aus dem Nichts

Ich erstelle Wahrheiten, aus dem Nichts

From nothing…

 

The pressure gradually alleviates

Allowing me to catch my breath

The deafening silence dissipates

I know how I want to live

 

I cannot move forward

Bound to the past

I cannot move forward

Chained to what’s passed

 

Throw away all the mistakes I’ve made

Break free of the games I’ve played

Cleanse me now, free of thoughts decayed

Start a new page, it’s all from nothing

 

In search of nowhere

I spend my days

Embracing the winds

Against my face

Seizing the chance

Of my own fate

To forge the trail

Through this new place

 

Soaring through the skies

Free to live my own life

Climbing higher and higher

To the ends no one knows

 

Eclipsing the moon and sun

Headed to a world unknown

Nothing will ever be the same

Life is but the pouring rain

 

Washing away mistakes I’ve made

Cleansing me of thoughts decayed

As I fly high…

Ever higher and higher…
