And I hope that nothing remains
I feel my misery
Endless days of crying

I am awakened from a dream
A dream, or was it still reality?
Things are not the way they seem
I am here and there is all a fantasy

But still I feel captured, closed in
Trying, how?
And I realize why I'm here
Seems so many things do appear

Every night I wish away my sickness
Every night I try to scream out my pain

And I pray for the end of my days
And I hope that nothing remains
I feel my misery
Endless days of crying

Have I reached the world in my mind?
And see the past before my eyes
All my mistakes pour over me
But will surround me too

Seems like I wasted too much time
With things not so important
I miss my friends, my family
All this time, it makes me see

Lord, please hear my voice
God, this is all vain

And I pray for the end of my days
And I hope that nothing remains
I feel my misery
Endless days of crying
And I pray for the end of my days
And I hope that nothing remains
I feel my misery
Endless days of crying

Only when it's come to an end
You'll see the things in life so dear
Try to seize the time you have on Earth now
'Cause life can be shorter than you think

And I pray for the end of my days
And I hope that nothing remains
I feel my misery
Endless days of crying
And I pray for the end of my days
And I hope that nothing remains
I feel my misery
Endless days of crying

And I hope that nothing remains
I feel my misery
