Today my father died. All that is left from him is a small musical box and the wish to
read his diary. I miss him so much… he was the best father you could wish for. I am
so curious about what he had written in his diary – and anxious at the same time.
What if there are things in it that tear everything apart? „When you will read this – my
dearest maid – I’m already dead. In this diary I will tell you the story of my life and the
truth about yours.”
What does that mean? The truth about my life? Did my father lie to me? And how
important it was for him that I use my abilities and energies solely in a benevolent
way, although he should know that I will never abuse them. Everything he taught me
will always guide me to help people and accompagny them along their way but never
to do them any harm. For all times I will be deeply thankful for this knowledge he
passed on to me.
Strange, his last wish... He wants me to shed his ashes over a small town, far away
from here. What does that mean? I have not heard about this small town yet but it
must have been of greater significance for him, in a time before my birth…

My father died today
A lovely melody is fading
My memories will stay
For months he was waiting

For you dark brother of sleep
Limbs are crippled, pain can’t be eased
Decline and illness creep
Open doors for you, he is released

Is my life a castle built on sand
Did I hold a liar’s hand
Walls of betrayal, roof of lies
Oh I’m scared what if truth dies

Whatever words will tell
Tales from heaven or from hell
They’ll never change our past
What is true will always last

His life lies in my hand
A story from an unknown dark land
Happened many years ago
In a town where silent winds blow

Ashes to ashes he claims
Scattered pieces, nothing remains
But a fading melody
Some loving words in a diary

Is my life a castle built on sand
Did I hold a liar’s hand
Walls of betrayal, roof of lies
Oh I’m scared what if truth dies

Whatever words will tell
Tales from heaven or from hell
They’ll never change our past
What is true will always last
