Eight Cups Songtext
von Ötzi

Coming to your senses
And you come into your own
And leave behind everything
You thought you had before

Making do and make believe
Was all I could think of
Now I′m so conflicted
I'm still addicted, addicted to your love

Eight cups I leave behind me
Eight cups, the ocean calls me
Eight cups, the moon is my old friend

Eight cups of blood and tears
Eight cups that I held dear
Eight cups, the moon is my new friend


Coming to your senses
It was written on the wall
Come into yourself now
Cards lay where they may fall

A cage is a cage despite the things
That made it comfortable
Welcome to your self now
And go on where you will go

Eight cups, they couldn′t sate me
Eight cups, peril may be fated
Eight cups, but I must wander on

Though the hill ascends
The path winds and bends
Eight cups, I carry myself
Walk away, walk away
Though the night has come
Walk away, walk away
And I am alone
Walk away, walk away
Eight cups, I sing to myself
