Narrator:
6:30pm in the Vienna Augustine's Church,
Strange time for a wedding ceremony
but appropriate on this 24th of April 1854,
very appropriate.
Chorus:
All questions are asked, all phrases learned
We are the last of a world with no hope left
because all Sins are ( either asked, or lasted or past)
all virtues are memorised and all curses are said
and all blessings are voiced
ugliness can't shock us,
the good deed no longer an example
the evil deed leaves us indifferent
because all miracles are done
and all borders destroyed
we have seen every image and
all questions are asked and all chances are gone
we are the last of a world, which always thinks
about suicide and everything,
everything that happens helps us kill time
We finally see the stars' descent
ELISABETH.....
Priest:
Is that your wish, then answer with "Yes"
Elisabeth:
Yes.
Bells. |
