The Void Songtext
von Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble of Shadows

As a child I admired
All the children′s fantasies
Their power of imagination
Or was it sheer insanity?
To call a friend

Such magical ability
From the darkness
From the void
Into their worlds
And make it real


I am made now
I am made
Of sarcasm and pain
Because for six or seven years
In the most twisted way

I once wished for
How it somehow became true
The friendship that I held so dearly
It was so imaginary too

How could I have been so stupid?
That I never, I never realised
That the bond, the bond I thought we shared
It was only, only my mind

How could I have been so stupid?
That I never, I never realised
(The friend) The friend I loved so dearly
Lived only, only, only in my mind
