so you're going to the opera house
to find things you can't find at home and then
then you listen and then you grasp,
i've been living so alone
i've been living on parole,
i am living now it all behind and where i sit
be a start of a whole new world
born out of burning ariette
conceived among the stars on dome
and chandelier's molten candles
chandelier's melted candle
and the curtains close
and the audience rise
never ending applause bellowing in the Berlin blue night sky
maybe years ago you have already heard
but did not understand
and you burnt the last straw
leaving ash in your hand,
and you turned into ash
and now you're phoenix
so you're going to the holy house
divine things ain't the words the speak, you think,
if there's no shit, there ain't no sacred
how do i know if the world is ancient
how do i know if the moment is fleeting
how do i know if it's not repeating again
and all over again
and again
