Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
A perfect instant that I did not let pass me by
That I'll cherish in the very moments before I die
As it replays and replays behind my smiling eye
And I'll leave this world behind knowing that I had a good life
Escalating laughter at each other's laughter
Obliterates what came before and what is going after
That dreaded question no longer matters
Annihilated by the answer, hate to say it but the answer is
Love
Torrents coming from me, words are not enough
They are but clumsy human tools for describing stuff
The most beautiful phrase ever conceived of
Is just a rock bashed against another rock
For the ears of the gods above
Tsar Bomba of my love
Fifty miles away sailors' faces are still falling off
Thermonuclear blast is blasting high above
100 megatons is not enough
The atmosphere ignites if you desire it my love

You were sick but now you're well
And you've got work to do
And do well
You were sick but now you're well
And you've got work to do
And do well
In secret and in silence for my childhood I've yearned
Shackled to a ghost that I have only just now learned
Was the root of maybe all of it, the fickle death of novelty
My place in the infinite
Culminating in a terrifying cacophonous sound
I am reborn as I turn around
Face towards what's in front of me
Leave behind what's behind
I've yearned for my childhood for the final time
And I'll earn this new childhood that I'll proudly stand beside
That burden I thought would crush
My weakened shoulders made them broad
The hurting I thought would grow as I got older, it has not
The perma-frost growing ever colder, it has thawed
A monolith dissolves as I hold her and I'm in awe
Hypoxic vessels once closed down
The lungs are open now
Capillaries are flushing red and proud
With purer air and richer blood than I thought could ever be
Yeah, she's breathing life back into me
You were sick but now you're well
And you've got work to do
And do well
You were sick but now you're well
And you've got work to do
And do well

She's breathing life into everything around me
She's breathing life into everything I see
I was sick but now I'm well and I've got work to do
I've got a name for everything I'll ever be
She's breathing life into everything around me
She's breathing life into everything I see
I was sick but now I'm well and I've got work to do
I got a name for everything I'll ever be
Everything I'll ever be
She's breathing life
