Confessional - Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows

Where do I begin,

where should I start?

So much to tell… or nothing at all.

At the end of the day it is all the same,

'cause that’s how things are.

No-one ever writes, no-one calls,

only replies, so I have to go first,

which is tiring and sad,

but all that I have,

so I just go ahead with it.

I do believe,

I do believe, I do believe, I do,

I do believe in friendship…-

in friendship and in truth.

I often try picturing what it

would be like to have a friend,

someone who spends his time

with me, enjoys my company

as much as I like him.

Someone who calls for no reason

at all, simply out of a whim…-

whom, at the end of the day,

I don’t have to pay

like everyone else.

Someone, who has no gain from

knowing my name, my weakness

or strength, who doesn’t pretend

and isn’t afraid to share pleasure

or pain, is honest and true.
