Lyrics
Requiem For a Wise Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's the end of a long quest
A real new beginning
Renouncing forever
The futile search for meaning
Renouncing forever
The futile search for pleasure
To search on far horizons
For life's real deepest measure
Adieu to you all!
Your Sage has gone on far ahead!
In your ignorance you struggle;
You'll struggle till you're dead
Bewildered by your questions
Dismayed by your ideas
Felled by your vain certainties
And staggered by your tears
He listened to you weeping
The existential scream
But in all your futile fighting
What do you really mean?
Adieu to you all!
Your Sage has gone on far ahead!
In your ignorance you struggle;
You'll struggle till you're dead
On him fall the tears of Heaven
On him and on the Earth around
Let your tears pass from misery to action
Let none forget his tears
That in his life fell to the ground
Adieu to you all!
Your Sage has gone on far ahead
In your ignorance you struggle;
You'll struggle till you're dead
Of him there will remain a living memory
What will we all make of His dark history?
