And what a cliche it is,
What an exercise in futility,
To say I was born in the wrong moment -
I should have been born into a different time.

What an exercise in development,
What a blister it does become,

To adhere to dying values,

Play the dying trumpet rhymes 
And listen to, the dying trumpet blues.

What a waste it would be
If I actually believed that.
If to think I was so innocent -
Another life might be any different.

They are the same lives lived in conjunction,
The same pain, the same love and the same indifference.

What a shame it would be
If I had actually forgotten that.

And what a bliss it might be
If I had never come to believe it.
