Ewige Wiederkunft Lyrics


Darkness drips from doured mind

Pull the rope around your neck

This life was a futile, cruel torment

At last, death will bring salvation

The end of life

Eternal recurrence

Begins again

Eternal recurrence

Seek the grace of death's frigid hand

Solace awaits in the abyss

But in this moment, a demon comes to thee

In the blackness of your loneliness

A word foretelling of your damnable fate

"As you lived, you will live again

And again and again"

Every sorrow

And every tear

Are echoes within infinity

Cower from this mouth of blackened prophecy

Maw brimming in satiate malice

"I come to you now at the end of your life

To relish in the terror in your eyes"

The end of life

Eternal recurrence

Begins again

Eternal recurrence

Every man

A grain of sand

Turning forever in the hourglass

How can this be, that all shall be again?

Exacted in perfect sequence as came before

Pray that I had known! Would the sun have shone brighter, or love tasted sweeter? Or would all have gone to ruin again?

Every failure

And every loss

Endured again for forever

Deep within the Wheel of Time

Her threads weaving cyclical astral sorcery

Birthed from chaos the cosmos came to be

And to chaos and fire shall it return

The end of all

Eternal recurrence

Begins again

Eternal recurrence

Every atom

And every star

Birthed and die for eternity

The universe born from celestial fire

Expanding forever into nothingness

Shall reach its end and collapse upon itself

Back to the fire

Only to grow again and again

This is the fate of all things

That are, were, or are yet to be
