Oh my lover's heart is like a fortress
And when the gates part
Only then can I enter
And the power consumes me like a raging fire
And it burns completely with a selfish desire
And I lay in the ashes like a feather bed
My spirit is broken, but I am not dead

Oh my lover's heart is like the ocean
And when the waters part, only then can I see in
And the darkness surrounds me like a cold mystery
And I float like a ghost, aimless in the deep
Then I sink to the bottom, down to the seabed
My spirit is broken, but I am not dead

From my lover's heart, I cannot break free
From the very start, it took a hold of me
And now I'm shackled and bound
with unbreakable chains
And I see freedom around me
but here I still remain
So I lie like a dog at the foot of your bed
My spirit is broken, but I am not dead
No, my spirit is broken, but I am not dead
