Along the Shore

Tell me how to stop the tears,
Tell me where there is another world in which to live,
Tell me why there is no truth, only illusion,
So why should I continue crying?
 
Along the shore,
There are no waves, there is a world,
Which explodes into fragments on the breakers,
 
Tell me how to stop the tears,
Tell me where there is another world in which to live,
When people run into destruction as if it was the sea,
I would run into the flames if it would bring them back to me,
 
Along the shore....
 
Tell me how you live with death,
Hiding the tears each night, tell me how much more?
The flames that call me are not really there,
And that which has disappeared, will it return or is it gone?
 
Along the shore....
 
Tell me how to stop the tears,
Tell me how...

Accurate translation, except:

"And that which has disappeared, will it return or is it gone?" should be:

"And he who disappeared, will he return or is he already dead" ~~

I think the original translation is indeed correct, *that* which has disappeared, an impersonal, otherwise one might've written והוא שנעלם instead of וזה שנעלם, of course I could be wrong.
