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
