Aphonic Threnody / Ennui Immortal in Death 1. Aphonic Threnody - Ruins Truth is so hard to swallow We've been prisoners of your lies for so long That reality is just a drop of water in a sea of salt We've been praying your god We've been kneeling in front of your saints We paid our life for your gold We missjudged your true self Centuries of pain inflicted by your blind rage Mind devoted to tons of tales here your light shines over the light of the day Nations abandoned, people dying Children suffering, mothers crying Where's your truth now? While your holy war is coming Your crusade against all hope Your annihilation of the world Behold the children Look at those children still walking amongst the ruins You have left ruins in their hearts Wounds won't heal for them Suckin' life from infected breasts You have left ruins in their hearts Feed your hate to those mindless men They drink the blood like parasites on pale sick skin They march from heaven bringin' hell Then are the plague spreading in the land All of those deaths and tears like snow flakes on dark black earth Preach your bitter lies you "holy" men It's upon your god who must be condemned Nourishin' in filth, we lived of those lies While children were dying, our eyes dry soar We forgot how to cry Kill me now, I don't wanna see them dying I cannot stand such cruelty I cannot stand them crying I cannot watch them dying... You can see them thru TV screens You can hear them in your painful dreams Children calling your names while you've turned your backs away A shiver like a touch of fever They are crying helpless from clouds of dust All of those deaths and tears You have left ruins in their hearts Wounds won't heal for them Suckin’ life from infected breasts You have left ruins in their hearts All of those deaths and tears like snow flakes on dark black earth 2. Ennui - Hopeless [Note: Only the English lyrics are provided in the booklet. However, the song is not sung in English, but probably in Georgian.] 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
