| In tombs we lie, the brotherhood of decay and decomposition,
|
| the ones who left our worthless lives to rot and be forgotten.
|
| As worms seek shelter in my flesh and bones are grind to dust,
|
| I listen to the rain above and bide my time in darkness…
|
| Now billions lie as I do, their gods rest among them.
|
| Awiting the worlds impending doom, our bloodless features frozen.
|
| Remembering my life as it was — not trapped in this pit of ineffable woe.
|
| Estranged from the sun and the winds, yearning no more nor bewailing.
|
| Within my mind darkness has fallen too…
|
| The loneliest grave, I sail the sea of tranquil dominion,
|
| brilliant, eternal ocean of darkness.
|
| Emerging like a newborn from the verge of oblivion,
|
| still my eyes gaze at the light of the stars.
|
| I’m free now at last, and I see no god to punish my soul, I’m alone.
|
| (Oh stjrnklara ddsrike, himmelska avgrund,
|
| vad tider fr du med dig nu — mnniskans vl eller ve?)
|
| [Oh starlit kingdom of death, heavenly abyss.
|
| What times do you bring to Man — to our benefit or to our end?] |
