Shards Songtext
von Johann Faustus

Kneel before the mountain
Stunned by it′s grace
Imagine the summit covered in clouds
The top of the world and a path to the sky
Lethal but tempting, invincible

Now watch this pebble out of millions
So small, smooth and petty
Can you see the mountain long gone?
Oh, can you see the mountain long gone?


Another strike of the hammer
Another swing of the scythe
Once-green grasses became hay
Everything else shattered to shards

As seasons went by, the oak grew huge
It's trunk was wider than 4 men could reach
And taller than the rest of the forest
How do you like my new wardrobe?

A mountain, a field, a forest
A house, a ruin, some debris
