As Many Years (Go Passing By)

Every day and every night
Same lonely world
Blinding dark and senseless light
Stories untold
Empty feelings, cold and pale
Lonely weeping, soul's for sale

As many years go passing by
I will stay the same
Bitter and alone
Keeping you in my flame

Emptiness is growing strong
Feeding from pain
Streets and homes are getting cold
Nobody's to blame
Life's without, pain's within
Scream and shout, let me in

As many years go passing by
I will stay the same
Bitter and alone
Keeping you in my flame

As many years go passing by
I will keep this flame
Oh, it shines so bright
Lonely light in the shade
