Elegi [English translation]

You see the other half of the sun, as it sets in west

I sit alone here and wonder where we'll end up next

With you on the other side of the world I get time for nothing

While the night sheds cold blue shadows hereabouts

We were going to manage anything, we were never going to say no

And what you trust me with, I'll trust you with

There is a storm coming tonight, ransack and confess

The son of god will descend from the heavens again

You will stand naked in front of the truth and the qualms of the world

He will try your mettle, he will test your morals

We stand silent by the fork in the road, where summer ends

Like teenagers on the way home after yesterdays debut

Now nothing would be like before, we were in another division

We could hear the dark water of autumn flow under the bridge

We were going to manage anything, we were never going to say no

And what you trust me with, I'll trust you with

And just now I got to hear your laugh

And it told me that you miss me tonight, and so do I

It's quite by the street, like it never is otherwise

It is as if the night here, has seen everything and silently sings along

An elegy for all the sorrows this autumn was about

For a mother that got sick, for a child that never came

For the shadow over the yard, where the sun never shone through

For a strength that wasn't there, you miss mine, I miss yours

For a silence between the walls, that cut through cement

Two pair of eyes in emptiness from September 'til advent

For a man that wen to work, as if nothing had happend

For a woman that said everything is ruined, everything is burnt

An elegy for all the roads that we have yet to walk

For a time that just goes and never comes again

We were going to manage anything, we were never going to say no

And what you trust me with, I'll trust you with
