She is a careful and patient shadow
Man's faithful enemy
Unceasingly transformed, rebaptized
Behind a different mask
I know it's always the same face,
Always the same eyes greedy for agony
Always the same compassionate ears
Listening to our Moans,
To Our Heartbeats
Passive and disinterested
Like an infidel wife
This cold and wet mouth
Will give us the very last kiss
Death is red,
For those who experience her torments
Bound to death like a daughter to her mother
She gives her mass graves overflowing
Of sketched life, of projects and hopes
What's good to see her so active
Abandoned, in the arms of another plague
Humanity slowly disappears
Someone prays, some others cry
What's the good to see her so active
Sickness born with life She is a careful and patient shadow Man's faithful enemy Unceasingly transformed, rebaptized Behind a different mask I know it's always the same face, Always the same eyes greedy for agony Always the same compassionate ears Listening to our Moans, To Our Heartbeats Passive and disinterested Like an infidel wife This cold and wet mouth Will give us the very last kiss Death is red, For those who experience her torments Bound to death like a daughter to her mother She gives her mass graves overflowing Of sketched life, of projects and hopes What's good to see her so active Abandoned, in the arms of another plague Humanity slowly disappears Someone prays, some others cry What's the good to see her so active Explain Request ×
