They talk about what’s hot and cool

they swear by today.

looking at them I think they’re fools

life goes on anyway

The day is gone with the light

as always we all came here to bid farewell

and yet we don’t get that the star has died

But I’m standing on the other shore

I can see everything from here

standing on the other shore

It’s dark over the city and the tower

I’ve gained nothing -

same as you have, believe me

And I’m not scared of pain,

what’s to fear? pain is my sister,

I pray to her

And still I stand on the other shore

where I see everything

I stand on the other shore

And I talk about what’s hot and cool

and I swear by today

I look at myself and think I’m a fool

life goes on anyway

It’s good the century has died

although not all came to say “goodbye”

but we don’t get that the star is still alive

And I still stand on the other shore

where I can see everything

I stand on the other shore

I land on the other shore

and I see everything, I get to the other shore

I stand on the other shore where I see everything

I stand on the other shore

come and stand with me on this shore

where I see everything

come and stand with me on this shore!
