Ferryman
Dear ferrymanGet the boat
I turn my head to the left
Everything there is dead
I turn it to the right
And I see all the filth
Dear ferryman, take me away
The water is smooth
The light is pale
On the other shore
My tribunal
What will they say?
Was I always brave?
Was I one of the good ones?
A sheep in the herd?
And I count my demons
And I torment myself, the place where they live
Dear ferryman
I can't tell you
What the world does with me
What the world does with me
I know one thing
That is for sure:
I am only happy sleeping
And only in the night
Dear ferryman
Who killed me?
Is it this one here
That now laughs at me?
Who skinned me?
Who hollowed me out?
It hurts for sure
But I will go
And I count my demons
And I torment myself, the place where they live
And I can't manage to catch them
All that remains for me is to count the demons*
