[00:35.609] It begins with a blessing, it ends with a curse
[00:40.027] Making life easy by making it worse
[00:44.303] "My mask is my master", the trumpeter weeps
[00:48.849] But his voice is so weak, as he speaks from his sleep
[00:52.883] Saying: "Why, why, why...
[00:56.820] Why are we sleeping?"
[01:27.781] People are watching, people who stare
[01:32.268] Waiting for something that's already there
[01:36.787] "Tomorrow I'll find it", the trumpeter screams
[01:41.028] And remembers he's hungry, and drowns in his dreams
[01:44.989] Saying: "Why, why, why...
[01:48.868] Why are we sleeping?"
[02:10.251] Why, why, why, why are we sleeping?
[02:17.741] My head is a nightclub with glasses and wine
[02:21.959] The customers dancing or just making time
[02:25.927] While Daevid is cursing, the customers scream
[02:29.888] Now everyone's shouting, "Get out of my dream!"
[02:34.210] Saying: "Why, why, why...
[02:37.432] Why are we sleeping?"
[04:16.630] It begins with a blessing, it ends with a curse
[04:20.843] Making life easy by making it worse
[04:25.307] "My mask is my master", the trumpeter weeps
[04:29.473] But his voice is so weak, as he speaks from his sleep
[04:33.794] Saying: "Why, why, why...
[04:37.510] Why are we sleeping?"
