Original lyrics

EN
There's a place in our minds, where the sun ceases to shine And the mountains of our spines are cast in shadows There's a fortress in the sea and a lake that beads with the greed Of a million hundred eyes, I've arrived now, in the end I'm not allowed to be scared anymore But I am afraid of your flood Let me hold back the tears I'm sitting on I will be playing with your blood In the end, in the end There's a mistress in our bed, with a thousand pounds on her head On the poster on the wall above the light switch The sheets are damp and old and her skin is freckled with mold But the queue outside the door stretches right out To the sea I'm not allowed to be scared anymore But I am afraid of your flood Let me hold back the tears I'm sitting on I will be playing with your blood In the end, in the end.
