Todeswunsch - Lyrics by Sopor Aeternus


Lyrics
Chill is dripping silently,I am drowning in myself.
My hope has left me alone and barren,my grave - the only loving place.I hate my own loathsome smell,this stench and old-age and maledorous fear.
How I hate each mortal cell that is rottinglyexisting deep inside of me...I cannot bear the sun so I close me eyes,it is the perfect day to end this wretched life.
Give me the reason to life so that I might laughat least I'll try in bitterness...
Stop the waiting, the cruel waiting for nothing.
All I want is to forget, finallyin Sleep of Death...I could die just like a christian.I could fade away in sleepbut I want to die for someone,for the one who waits for me.I long to be a sacrifice for the Lord,my Lord of the Darkest Side.
Everyday is a perfect day, a perfect day for suicide...!
Deliver me from the mindless crowdwhen steps grow dumb behind my back.
Save me from their poisoned locksharassing like daggers through my neck...
Here, where it's like hell to existonly Death can bring salvation.
Please, release me from my chains that crucify meto my eternal tribulation.
Here, where even my own image is spitting,where I have to hide my face.
Where the distress seems so endlessly,in this god-forsaken place...
In a former time in a long forgotten place,when the masks and the faces had been identical twins.
As our sanctuaries were locked to hypocritical liesnow befouled they lay bare as they stalked inso well gisguised...
Suicide, sweet suicidedeepest darkness veils my eyes...
Suicide, sweet suicidejet-black darkness clouds my mind...
Suicide, sweet suicide
Deepest darkness in my heart...
Suicide, sweet suicidemy unclean soul, I know no light...
