Sopor Aeternus Résumé Lyrics

Over there that little mountain rises
While some others dissolve into a plain
Time redefines itself and falls in sadness grain by grain

"Time, my dear, heals all the wounds"
The two-tongues echoes seem to say
But nothing, nothing changes here
This pain remains and will not go away

[Lament:]
"I went weak, as I grew old
And time itself has made me slow
And as I close my eyes in sadness
A thousand seasons come and go

Might enough to cover all
And also cruel enough to reveal
But all the wounds and scars he carries
Neither force nor kiss can ever heal

No, time heals nothing, nothing, nothing
Spitefully turns away and laughs
Leaves you half-broken and in defiance
Is only added another scar
(x2)

Call it "blind" how he is writhing
Counting hours, centuries
The pain it grows and glows in tides
Unable to vanish, unwilling to cease

No, time heals nothing, nothing, nothing
Pushes 'till we're diving into different flesh
Time heals nothing, nothing
Petrified with some unnameable shame

[Lament:]
"Time's fingers claw
I am losing hold
There is no hope for me on earth
Time either still or maybe rushing
In any case it will turn out worse
Time is fleeting, time stands still
It stops for no-one and we're trapped within
But I do dream of the light
You're only falling back to the left-hand side

[Résumé:]
"How I wish what I as dead and rest in final peace
But even the luxury of death can't cure the wounds time cannot heal.
