Translation
Bilingual
Shattered windows are staring from eroded walls
Doors hanging aslant on rotten hinges (hinges)
Some streets still traveled, where a sane mind cringes
By wanderers on iron horses, where darkness calls
ย
Riding, hurrying over broken pavement so as not to spend
This eerie night with ghosts (this eerie night with ghosts)
And there are ghosts (are ghosts)
ย
Those that lived here, worked and died
Yet, while they were alive, their hopes, their virtues crucified
If you'd ask them, they would tell you of a greed beyond all limits
Of, a need to destroy a simple way of life
Their presence may yet be felt
Spirits floating where once the living dwelled
Between buildings crumbled, torn, and shifted
Ravaged by time, you'll see, once the fog has lifted
ย
Collapse was slow, but the wise men knew, predictable
Yet, humanity's actions taken despicable
The ashes rose, a last vision
Too late, too late, too blind to see
ย
The ones who lie unburied
Could have changed the course of time
But preferred to stay unworried
Descend into sin and crime
ย
The ashes rose, a last vision
Too late, too late, too blind to see
But when the castles crumbled
That were built on sand or cloud
Gods witnessed mankind tumble
Mankind before Mammon bowed
