L'au-delà [English translation]

Don't ask me why I came,

on my Way of the Cross the road was twisted.

Don't ask me how it happened,

I don't remember, the time stopped.

I hadn't seen the night descending in small steps,

And in my insomnia I didn't understand.

I saw stars spinning everywhere,

they led me to you, here I am sorry.

Sorry.

Don't ask me why I am like that,

if the God who made me is mocking me.

Don't ask me how it happened,

when I lost my mind, the time stopped.

I searched the sky and all day long,

looked for the strings of its immensity.

I saw the fear dancing, lost in the storm,

it was the colour of a sad and slow death.

Sad and slow.

It's beautiful, the beyond,

I'll stay there.

It's beautiful, the beyond,

I'll stay there.

It's beautiful the beyond,

I'll stay there.

It's beautiful the beyond,

I'll stay there.

Don't ask me why I came,

on my Way of the Cross the road was twisted.

Don't ask me how it happened,

I don't remember, the time stopped.

Don't ask me why I came,

on my Way of the Cross the road was twisted.

Don't ask me how it happened,

I don't remember, the time stopped.
