lyrics

Βαδίζοντας αβέβαια με όραση θολή
Στους κήπους της μιζέριας
Και κάθε βήμα να σε φέρνει πιο βαθιά
Στης ύπαρξης το τέλμα

Αγκάθινος ο δρόμος το πέλμα σου γεμίζει με πληγές
Όμως στο βάθος βλέπεις χρυσάφι
Το κόστος δε λογάριασες και ξέσκισες τη σάρκα σου
Για να γλυτώσεις το άγχος
Τι κι αν αντάμωσες ανθρώπους στην πορεία
Πάλι παρέμεινες μόνος
Σαν ναυαγός που μεσοπέλαγα βυθίζεται
Και του τελειώνει η ανάσα αφέθηκες
Ο νους σακάτης κι αυτός
Μοιάζει προδότης και εχθρός

Σηκώνοντας το χέρι σου ακούμπησες τη σήψη
Σαν να μην σ ένοιαξε ποτέ η ύλη
Κι έτσι στο τέλος κάηκες στην πύρινη γραμμή
Εκεί όπου χωρίζονται η συνήθεια και η ανάγκη

*

Walking full of doubt and blurry eyes
In the gardens of misery
And every step brings you closer
To the end of existence

The road is full of thorns that wound your feet
But you can still see the gold at the end of it
You didn't reckon the cost and so you ripped your flesh
To save yourself from this agony
What if you met people in the way
You still remain alone
Like a castaway who is drowning in the waves
And running out of breath you let go
Your mind is crippled
and seems like a traitor and a foe

You raised your hand and touched the decay
Like you never cared about matter itself
Thus, you finally burned at the fiery line
Where habits and needs divide
