When the Mill Wheel Stops
Left alone in solitude
I see our common time just passing by
In deafness I'm wandering through the valley of noise
Asking myself why
I'm speechless, so many words are left to say
Now I also could be dumb
You were the river that gave me a reason to live
You brought the water keeping the millwheel turning
And now you're dried up, the millstone is standing still
The wheel will never turn again
In the valley of noise
I'm searching for a waterdrop
The mountain's river spring
Unreachable for me
I'm speechless, so many words are left to say
Now I also could be dumb
You were the river that gave me a reason to live
You brought the water keeping the millwheel turning
And now you're dried up, the millstone is standing still
The wheel will never turn again
My hands are bleeding while I'm digging in the ground
I can't find anything being safe and sound
My desperation's growing and I start to mourn
Dried out, hopeless, torn
There'll be neither a lapping nor a rush
And all the harvest will rot
My soul is gonna starve to death
The millwheel stopped
I am awaiting my final breath
Why did you do your final breath?
I die with you
I die with you
I die with you
I die with you
I see our common time just passing by
In deafness I'm wandering through the valley of noise
Asking myself why
I'm speechless, so many words are left to say
Now I also could be dumb
You were the river that gave me a reason to live
You brought the water keeping the millwheel turning
And now you're dried up, the millstone is standing still
The wheel will never turn again
In the valley of noise
I'm searching for a waterdrop
The mountain's river spring
Unreachable for me
I'm speechless, so many words are left to say
Now I also could be dumb
You were the river that gave me a reason to live
You brought the water keeping the millwheel turning
And now you're dried up, the millstone is standing still
The wheel will never turn again
My hands are bleeding while I'm digging in the ground
I can't find anything being safe and sound
My desperation's growing and I start to mourn
Dried out, hopeless, torn
There'll be neither a lapping nor a rush
And all the harvest will rot
My soul is gonna starve to death
The millwheel stopped
I am awaiting my final breath
Why did you do your final breath?
I die with you
I die with you
I die with you
I die with you
