lyrics

Our life – a bitter trip – is a riddle we can’t solve.
We live as strangers with blindfolded eyes.
Nobody knows
Why we suffer, why we die.

Our common fate – departure – is inescapable as sin.
We die as losers that have lived in vain.
All the time, we paint with gestures
The progressive shape of our death.

Sometimes we feel the pain, sometimes the joy
Of this sentence we serve – bleak countdown to nothingness.
We feel the anger, a grain of pleasure, hope and despair,
Till when we vanish in the final farewell.

Who’s first amongst us to pass away?
Who’s next to leave?
We all are doomed to our demise.
Who’s next to die?

Who’s first amongst us to fade away?
Who’s next to cease to be?
We will all give up the ghost.
Who’s next to be no more?

Here in the unfathomable fields of the living
Each and every one of us brings inside
That seed, unknown, that hideous crime
Against life that at one point or another
Shall fatally bloom, exploding into death
Our carcass flower and its petals dyed red.
No matter what, for those who remain
Nostalgia comes in the shape of a desert.
And yeah, I know I will mourn all the ones I love
Except for those who will outlast me when I am gone.

Who’s first amongst us to turn away?
Who’s next to disappear?
We all shall perish on our way.
Who’s next to fall from here?

Who’s next to be taken away?
Who’s next to turn their back to life?
We all have got to die.
The end is certain. Death shall come.
