You walk on a carpet of golden leaves
Rememb'ring lost hopes and old pipe dreams
The ground collapses under your feet

Hey... What a deceit !

And you bought happiness in material things
You got drunk in fame and felt the stings
You turned mad, my dear, in this merry-go-round

What an odd fairground

When you turn your inner eye
You realize
The vanity of your existence
In the murmur of silence

Have a look beyond the horizon
Maybe you'll see these fields of light which come
The free spirits move into a subtle ether
Far from lands burned by greed and anger

This is a fragment from elsewhere

You've played this role a thousand times even more
Disappointed, you closed the door
Your head is full of fashionable ideas

It's only ashes

Now lying on the ground you feel a cool breeze
You'd like to relive childhood fantasies
You aren't the man that you wanted to be

Be quiet wait and see

When you turn your inner eye
You realize
The vanity of your existence
In the murmur of silence

Have a look beyond the horizon
Maybe you'll see these fields of light which come
The free spirits move into a subtle ether
Far from lands burned by greed and anger

This is a fragment from elsewhere
