Immortality
Eternal Strife: Defying Time and Embracing Immortality in Deron Daum's Melody
Lyrics
You and me
You and I have conflicting views or opinions.
We disagree
I refuse to agree with you.
I won't accept
I won't accept your help or assistance.
Your charity
Your acts of kindness are not welcome.
Lost in time
We are caught in the passage of time.
That's running out
Time is running out.
And if I go
If I leave or depart, you will pray devoutly.
You'll raise the devout
You will express religious devotion if I'm gone.
I've lived for two-hundred years
I have lived for two centuries.
And yet it's death that I fear
Despite my long life, I fear death.
Your ban I will not adhere
I won't conform to your prohibition or rejection.
I'm coming
I'm approaching or arriving.
For eternity
This state of existence will last forever.
No one can stand in my way
No one can obstruct my path.
No mists will lead me astray
No confusing situations will mislead me.
Undying lands will give way
The eternal lands will yield to me.
Immortality
I seek immortality.
Build for me
Construct a magnificent fleet for me.
A shining fleet
A fleet that shines or stands out.
Sail into the west
Sail towards the western direction.
And death we'll cheat
We will defy or escape death.
On board the castle of seas
On a ship resembling a castle, we surprise our foes.
We startle our enemies
We startle and overcome our enemies.
I step into the valley
I enter a challenging situation or phase.
I'm here now
I am present here and now for an everlasting duration.
For eternity
(Empty line)
Just then the seas turn on me
At that moment, the seas betray or turn against me.
And thrust down my vanity
They forcefully bring down my arrogance or pride.
Drown in a vast tsunami
I am overwhelmed by a massive tsunami.
All of Númenoré
All of Númenoré is submerged or engulfed.
