Drifting Away (Mediolanum Santonum Lamento) Lyrics


One more sleepless night before I die

No hangman waiting for me at the gallows

No angel of death, no heaven, no hell

No sirens wailing, no more pain, no feelings

I'll be drifting away to unknown shores

Many a mile away from home

One more sleepless night before I die

No one to blame, no words to say

Where no one deceives there's no more betrayal

Only questions and the reek of death shall remain

I'll be drifting away to unknown shores

Many a mile away from home

Pain and sadness pounding inside my chest

like a raging storm within me

Just like a dying sea where no one never drowned in but me

The ebb tide is carrying me where ships will no longer sail

Like the evening at dawn or a king without a throne

I am one in a crowd, I'm misplaced in my home
