Fall
Jester's Funeral Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

music by Stefan Schmidt & Bastian Emig, lyrics by Stefan Schmidt


I look back upon grey years of grief: to questions I received answers in which I believed. But as days went by I came to find that feelings of another kind kept on growing in my mind.

I raised my head and whispered a dream into the sky.

Fall from the sky, I wait below to drown in you. Blue stormwinds blow. Fall from the sky and carry me far away from home.

I feel relief and fall asleep. Knowing there are hands to keep me far away from falling deep. Hold me now and tell me everything you are feeling deep within, your thoughts, your life, the mood you're in.





When I'm away I am a million stars shining down on you. Thanking god this dream came true.

Fall from the sky, I wait below to drown in you. Blue stormwinds blow. Fall from the sky and carry me far away from home.
I yearn to be consumed by the deluge that descends from the sky, with tempestuous gales pushing it onward. May it carry me away to a foreign place.
