Songtext von Sun Wukong

Where I come from is a place Of simple creatures, of no consequence For as long as I can remember I've been obsessed with achieving greatness but to what end? The notion seemed so deep Brooding disdain all along in me That a greater purpose Lay hidden from view Searching in vain To leave this domain Though there have been many Whom I could call friend Roads steep and laced with pain Have forced every one I've ever known To fall behind They lied down to rest While I carried on forward But I felt no satisfaction Even though I am the Great sage equal of heaven Searching in vain To leave this domain I was told that the truth is Only those who risk going too far Can find out how far one can go Now I've crossed the earth I've reached the end And offered my soul What can one do to savor life When everything is rushing so fast All alone, slave of time I know there is no turning back The purple dusk reveals a new road Reaching out to the stars To End is to Begin anew The colors have changed to a darker hue I have now finally awakened to Emptiness
