Nocturnal [English translation]

First nocturnal rule

Don't look at me like that

I can't give you anything

There's nothing good in me

The earth fights the sun

And every planet

In perfect chaos

They orbit above my head

I can't control my life

I only want to warn you

I've never been disciplined

There's nothing good in me

I've got a feeling about what's going to happen

The circle is closing

Hear my warning1

That's my nature

I can't control my life

I only want to warn you

I've never been disciplined

There's nothing good in me

There's nothing good in me

An irrational impulse

To destroy it all

To make you sink and go down

Like the Red October2

And come back to pull you up

When you've touched the bottom

From a run of bad luck

Mysterious and infinite

Are the laws of chance

If you could choose

Which of them you would break

Now I can't control my life

I only want to warn you

I've never been disciplined

There's nothing good in me

There's nothing good in me

Nor anything more to say
