When you get acquainted with universal feelings. That's what this song is about.
lyrics
So this is the future she read in your hand
love and dreams a new world
it seems not so bad
but there's a thing that breaks my heart
there is a thing that breaks my heart
love and dreams a new world with another man
and i feel that the end is near
i'll build up my way
and i know
everything so clear
i'll build up my way
without you
tell me all the reasons about your spell
asking to the mirror what will be of my self
she will be loved and you will suck
she will be rich and you will suck
run away from people with a curse on their heads
and i wake up and i feel that the end is near
i'll build up my way
and i know
everything so clear
i'll build up my way
but no fail no god no woman
will erase your name
and i know
everything so clear
i'll build up my way
without you
seven broken glasses
to wish you'll be glad
and a drop of standing tea to hope that you will never forget me
