Out beyond these walls
In the uncharted forest night
In the cobwebbed halls
Of forgotten mansions of our mind
There's a terrible wind blows
Howling in our skulls into our very souls
Bread morsels and mushrooms
Destroying angels
We picked on our path
And we couldn't find home
We were Hansel and Gretel
We were Jack and Jill
On our way to witches house
We fell down and broke our crown
Babes in the abyss
We were just
Babes in the abyss
Out beyond these walls
In the poison garden of our mind
Tangled tracks may lead us
To madness or to heaven's delight
It's a pathless way they say
The quest for a hero and heroine
Toad stools and fairies
Deathcaps and cherries
In these woods
Nothing's as it seems
Diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle
The cow jumped over the moon
The little dog has burnt its tail
And must be hanged at noon
Ringel ringel reihen,
Wir sind der Kinder dreien,
Sitzen unter'm Hollerbusch
Und machen alle husch husch husch
Babes in the abyss
We were just
Babes in the abyss
In the uncharted forest night
In the cobwebbed halls
Of forgotten mansions of our mind
There's a terrible wind blows
Howling in our skulls into our very souls

And we couldn't find home
We were Hansel and Gretel
We were Jack and Jill

We fell down and broke our crown

We were just
Babes in the abyss
