Lyrics

Capture the horizon, dry tears with stale wine,

Capturing the vastness of possibilities, trying to find solace or comfort through temporary means like alcohol.

try to turn thoughts into letters, scream as loud as you can!

Struggling to articulate thoughts, urging to express emotions forcefully.

This empty streets seem like a grace of wounded hearts to me,

The desolation of empty streets appears as a relief for those with wounded emotions.

just a few hours more to come and they'll enter their long expected target.

Anticipation of an imminent event that has been long awaited.


An unending story of renunciation, my sacrifice,

A continuous narrative of sacrifice, previously given as a final offering to a dying love.

once offered to this dying love as my last, final gift.

Expressing a sacrifice made for a dying love as a concluding gesture.

In sooner days we thought,

Reflecting on past beliefs about forgetting as a path to freedom.

that in forgetting we could set ourselves free,

An acknowledgment that forgetting was believed to bring liberation.

and you know as well as I do, that from now on,

A realization that nothing can hinder or prevent personal actions from now on.

there's nothing that can stop me anymore...

An affirmation of unstoppable determination.


The ones who live by hope, will soon die by disappointment,

Those who constantly hope are destined to be crushed by the disappointment when those hopes are unfulfilled.

so let's stop pretending, you know it was the best decision to part our ways.

A cessation of pretense about the best choice being to part ways.

Farewells can get quite nasty, that's why I disappeared silently,

Farewells are often turbulent, hence the choice to depart silently.

to say good bye is still the best information we can ever share.

Implying that leaving without saying goodbye is the best communication in such situations.


An endless dawn slowly fades the end of the night,

A new beginning slowly diminishes the darkness of an ending.

as former enstrangement again defeats me from behind.

A previous estrangement resurfaces, causing inner defeat.

There's no denying, that without you I'm nothing,

An admission of feeling incomplete or inadequate without the other person.

but also with you I am still alone...

An acknowledgment that even in the presence of the other, there's a sense of loneliness.

FUCK THIS BROKEN HEART!

An exclamation expressing intense frustration with a broken heart.


The distance between us feels as far as an ocean,

The emotional distance between individuals feels insurmountable, akin to the vastness of an ocean.

when I attempt to traverse it, the raging waves wash me back ashore.

Attempts to bridge the emotional gap are futile, leading to continual setbacks.

I tried so hard to reach the other side, but I lost consciousness,

Struggling persistently to overcome obstacles but losing consciousness metaphorically due to emotional suffocation.

'cause I don't know how to breathe, when my lungs are filled with water...

Feeling overwhelmed and unable to function emotionally when drowning in sorrow or despair.
