Igor Herbut - Mantra

Before I get up again
I'll fall once more
Like a mantra of a few words
I repeat it to this day
These are the children of those
Who caught their breath like a miracle
In their footsteps I lose myself
Through lost streets
I feel pride and anger
When I remember the laughter
That carried through the nights
Like music that's too loud
Like love and sin
When you still believe in them
Close your eyes
When you disappear

The dead sky surrounds us
Covering us
For so many years
You are fading away like
Each of the little stars
Over each of our roads

The dead sky surrounds us
Covering us
For so many years
You are fading away like
Each of the little stars
Over each of our towns
Where I forget the pain

Spit us out on the sidewalks
The same houses
Between the walls of cities so gray
Beautifully endless
In my blood I have the toil of humility
In my eyes there are grains of soil
I do not fear for tomorrow
Though I feel fear as I once did
I know the notes of curses
The truth inside out
Till the dawn breaks us
Each star will fade
In my hands I tear up our world
Without memory
For all that the pain has taken
Forever

The dead sky surrounds us
Covering us
For so many years
You are fading away like
Each of the little stars
Over each of our roads

The dead sky surrounds us
Covering us
For so many years
You are fading away like
Each of the little stars
Over each of our towns
Where I forget the pain

Threw us out on the street
The same words
Against the walls of those
Who only want to hide
Children of the old God
Under the pale stars
Tomorrow we'll start over
If we lose again today
