Fallen down, creeped upon,
Among the eager, but alone.
Sleeping promise of meadows so green,
Of culms, never withering,
Beyond cold metal bars
To the dull a tempting sight,
Eventually a guiding light,
Raising hope in a subsiding world,
Elysium - not yet unfurled,
Squire you along this path.
When everything has died
And all the Platypi have fallen from the sky,
We'll gaze after the sun.
Then I will treat your scars,
Sweet Beauty from the stars,
Sing farewell to Deponia.
Slipping through the claws
Of the vulture circling,
Despite all those flaws,
Which are roaming me, lurking,
Cleared your mind,
But never quite,
You wanted to find,
I wanted to fight
My way up to the stars.
And a part of you
Was in for the game,
While doubt broke through
And overcame
The unity
Of you and me,
You went to leave
And stayed to be
Apart in love and wrath
A valourful journey, attempted escape,
Now saving the world just for you.
No problem for such a walk's all the less
stressful if you sing along with a motivating song.
And soothing guitars.
Far from home, far from the end,
It's going to be a long walk, take my Hand,
We'll go to the place with meadows so green
With culms, never withering
To Utopia
