Ναυάγια [Navagia] [English translation]

deported on 8th avenue

I’m paying my truth’s tax

and whenever the need gives me an order

How (much) this truth frightens me

Birds of Paradise become silent

It’s the same with or without you

Do not turn this street’s lights on

Don’t you just ever stop saying you love me

Because only tears, only tears

And my life, countless shipwrecks

only tears, only tears

And my life, countless shipwrecks

My soul sags every now and then

I want you, but I don’t have, to give you

I;m struggling, with nothing* beside me (*meaning noone)

my end is watcing me and is laughing

My blood into my veins got sick

I’m counting my incumbency days

The guilty ones will never pay

And they will crucifie me on a Golgotha

Because only tears, only tears

And my life, countless shipwrecks

only tears, only tears

And my life, countless shipwrecks
