QUIDAM TRANSLATION

Your world is yours
not mine, Quidam
Your dreams are yours
You may have touched the stars
but they weren't moved

And if you reach for me
I may not choose
to hold your hand.
I might smile
or I might turn away

An ordinary man, Quidam
I'm everyman
I'm anyman

Quidam, Quidam
the night withdraws
From one dream to another you dance
From the void in you
comes the evil
which draws your empty words

There's nothing left
There's nothing right
There's nothing wrong
I'm one, I'm two
I'm all yet none of you
The truth, the lie
the tear, the laughter
the hand and the empty touch
Here I am alone
waiting for the curtain call

An ordinary man, Quidam
I'm everyman
You're the unkown
I'm anyman
You're a stranger

Quidam, Quidam
the night withdraws
From one dream to another you dance
From the void in you
comes the evil
which draws your empty words

I dance in this
linen cloth of pain
Wandering without map or compass
Sweet madness is my only refuge
I am born in the shadow of the clown

Quidam, Quidam
the night withdraws
From one dream to another you dance
From the void in you
comes the evil
which draws your empty words

Quidam, Quidam
to the shores of the dream
At the threshold of shadow, you dance
[All] around you
forms the evil
which draws your empty words

Quidam, Quidam
the night withdraws
From one dream to another you dance
From the void in you
comes the evil
which draws your empty words
