DECEMBERANCE LYRICS

1. Dying

[A poem named "Πεθαίνοντας..." ("Dying..." in English) by Kostas Karyotakis]

Μάταιη ψυχή, στην ατονία εσπέρας εαρινής,
ενώ θα κλείνεις τα χρυσά φτερά σου πληγωμένη,
την ώρα που σα λύτρωση κάτι θα καρτερείς,
φτωχή καρδιά, θανάσιμα μα αιώνια λυπημένη·

όταν, φτασμένη απάνω στον ορίζοντα, θα ιδείς
μίση να φεύγουν οι έρωτες, χολή τα πάθη σου όλα,
όταν ανέβει από τα εξαίσια τ' άνθη της ζωής
μύρον η απογοήτευση, ψυχή μου ονειροπόλα

2. When Darkness...

The years are gone...
I turn my eyes to the sky...
And my sorrow's looking at my silent grief...
Searching for the light ...
Among dreams and nightmares, and it's hidden away...
Buried in my thoughts under the scales of time
But all I see is an image of my silence...
A maze of dead souls pass through my eyes
Capturing anything that declares my existence...

I don't know if I must cry...
Just because you celebrate my fears...
I don't know if I must live...
Just because I wrote my last chapter...

...and I feel the absence of the sun again...
...and I'm dreaming till the sun will touch your face...

As I sleep and see my funeral..
You will laugh at my nightmares
"Oh please, scream"

3. Decemberance

A passage unknown grows far beyond...
I follow her sounds but silence is everywhere...
In oceans, in forests and through tears I walk...
the winds, the rain whisper mourns...

In her hands I see my last day..
and when shadows descend I try to scream...
But blackness is graping my voice...
Only her image is with me...

"...and then I follow her into the Decemberance..."

4. Sorrow

[Instrumental]
