Yesterday I sat with my feet in the river, death was talking to me with his hand on my back
"(It's) time to think about what you have lived, tell it to me, all the sins, all the lies of your life"
Don't move a bone, cause i've got a fucking gun.
Death is dead, now his skull is in my hand.
Don't believe them, don't believe them
that's my present, just some hope
Don't believe them, don't believe them
that's my present, just some hope
Ten years later so tired and beaten, (a) few aged people with dark feelings came to my house
"Immortality is just a bad present, take death back, we're annoyed… please stop playing pranks"
Everything is done, there's no way to take him back.
(I) was so wrong, I can't cope with all this work.
Don't forget what I said
yesterday you came back down the riverside again
too tired to fight, so tired to desire
when everything is broken and everybody is mad
trying to find some brand new fate
something to replace it, something to return
back to the time when we felt so safe…
under a dagger
Don't believe them, don't believe them
that's my present, just some hope
Don't believe them, don't believe them
that's my present, just some hope
Don't believe them
Don't believe them…
Don't believe them
Don't believe them…
