Dark voice, I am weary
Your words tie me in silence, sorrowing
toward the little flame of the earth
The end of time has come.
On the ground I am weak
Your words tie me in silence, sorrowing
toward the little fire on the earth
The end, the time has passed.
On the ground I lie
Your words tie me in silence, sorrowing
toward the little fire on the earth
The end of time has come.
On the ground, I am weak
Your words bind me, sorrow
toward the little fire on the earth
The end of time has come.
On the ground, I am weak
Your words bind me, and I grieve
toward the little fire on the earth
The end of time has come.
On the ground, I am weak
Your words bind me, sorrow
toward the little flame of the earth
The end, the time has passed.
