[Note: Only the English lyrics are provided in the booklet. However, the song is not sung in English, but probably in Georgian.] “Show me a religion that prepares one for nothingness, for death. That’s a church I might enter. Yours prepares one only for more life, for dreams and illusions and lies. Banish the fear of death from men’s hearts and they wouldn’t live a day. Who would want this nightmare but for fear of the next. The shadow of the axe hangs over every joy. Every road ends in death, every friendship, every love. Torment, lost, betrayal, pain, suffering, age, indignity, hideous lingering illness... and all of it with a single conclusion.” [The Sunset Limited – 2011 TV Movie] A whole life is miserably crashing like ancient monuments of a once living epoch collapse under the heavy wing of infinite time Dust of the past years has blinded men's eyes marking the boundaries of their fears So purposeless and miserable, their search for a higher truth for something better than themselves Everything that once you knew everything that once you appreciated is now laying in black oceans of lies Thousands of days will pass, thousands of dreams will die but you cannot drown all the pain in those depth Aimless effort, vain hopes like a frightened animal grumbling rushed away A stream of eternity unable to fill the void of your words Human's life - the death sentence, signed at birth into this world... and eyes devoid of life, blinded by illusions... Inside of you a coward soul, you deny the truth frightened for a non-existent god gripping the cross with wrinkled hands from which the shine of life has gone ...And in the darkness, in which we always dwell, you will not find anyone who would listen to your moaning and dissolve your suffering Wipe your tears and reflect in the emptiness of death… Forsaken, as you always were Never lived, just forgotten And here is the world, as it always was Observing the light passing away It tells us to be who we really are, freedom never lasts long enough Ruins upon the scorched earth splintered remains in death's rebirth Life of man is like a crowd of worms Like worms feeding on you in your grave Silently disappointed, we observe our sanity passing away
