Brothers

(Esperia Quartett - Totenlied)

Crawled
Underneath the fence
Long before the rain began
Stripped identity for a game
With numbers but no names

Brothers
Born from different wombs
Guided by a map of lies
What they were out to find
Is buried deep in the sky

(to his sister:)
In what could she believe?
Traded innocence for idols
A pair of bright blue eyes
Matched
With this new belief

Just one life
Salvaged
Would save the whole world
But you did not!
All life
Ended
But my smoke
Will turn
The rain
In your face
To tears

Now
Hounds are on their trail
Thunder summons death with bawl
Those who fall are left behind
In roaring silence

The rain has come
Drenched in fear
Shoved together
Skin to skin
This is no shelter
But a cage
... that cuts off breath

(to his mother:)
When did sorrow catch her soul?
This scent will never leave her thoughts
She swings in circles and screams inside
"just not like this!"

Just one life
Salvaged
Would save the whole world
But you did not!
All life
Ended
But my smoke
Will turn
The rain
In your face
To tears

Just one life
Salvaged
Would save the whole world
But you did not!
All life
Ended
But my smoke
Will turn
The rain
In your face
To tears

(Dino Sulic)

(To his father:) -

Just one life
Salvaged
Would save the whole world
But you did not!
All life
Ended
But my smoke
Will turn
The rain
In your face
To tears

To tears
