lyrics

When you’ll be gone
How will I feel?
Will the darkness eat up the light you’ve sheltered me with since I’m born?
Will I stand up like a man or feel forever like an orphan?

You don’t have the right to leave
Life is too short to grieve
My eyes won’t drop enough tears
To beat out the rage my soul fears

When you’ll be gone
At the break of dawn
When you’ll be gone
When the spirits moan

Stay strong!
Stay strong!
Carry on!
Go on!
Go on!
The fire’s never gone

When you’ll be gone
How will I give?
Will the sadness eat up the strength you gave me to help grow the newborn?
Will I rise up in the light or be teared down by endless fright?

You don’t have the right to leave
Life is too short to grieve
My eyes won’t drop enough tears
To beat out the rage my soul fears

When you’ll be gone
At the break of dawn
When you’ll be gone
When the spirits moan

Stay strong!
Stay strong!
Carry on!
Go on!
Go on!
The fire’s never gone

When you’ll be gone
How will I live?
Will the madness eat up the wiseness you’ve infused since years in the stubborn?
Will I be strong enough to carry on when things will get rough?

You have the right to leave
Even if there is still so much you can give
These tears will dry up
And I won’t crack up

When you’ll be gone
At the break of dawn
When you’ll be gone
When the spirits groan

When you’ll be gone I’ll stay strong!
When you’ll be gone I’ll carry on!
When you’ll be gone
I’ll grow on, I know the free spirit you are will never let me down

*

“If I create from heart, almost everything works; if from the head, almost nothing” says the painter Marc Chagall. Herz Machine applies this quote to the letter, delivering a rock full of frequencies that make our heart beat and our blood circulate. A rock combining melodic bursts, sharp riffs, lyrics with several levels of interpretation. ... more
