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!
