Back to Black Lyrics

When the earth returns
With a thousand sunsets
To the universal darkness
Of her spectral deathbed
No spirit no thought
No reminiscence of man
Or god
Will create or destroy
Another illusion of Sein.
Your eternity is now
A replica of a million seconds
Chasing each other into
A Messiah less emptiness
Wiped out by space
Endless comet-long trackless corridors
Leading to nowhere.
As I gaze through my window
Covered in satin
I listen to Ludwig van Beethoven's
7th. Symphony
And hear little Ludwig scream
From his drunken fathers beatings
But before I weep
In despair or ecstasy
Overwhelmed by his spirit
and agonie
I paint the iris
of my eyes
with black paint
and pretend
that I'm deaf.

When the earth returns
With a thousand sunsets
To the universal darkness
Of her spectral deathbed
No spirit no thought
No reminiscence of man
Or god
Will create or destroy
Another illusion of Sein.
Your eternity is now
A replica of a million seconds
Chasing each other into
A Messiah less emptiness
Wiped out by space
Endless comet-long trackless corridors
Leading to nowhere.
As I gaze through my window
Covered in satin
I listen to Ludwig van Beethoven's
7th. Symphony
And hear little Ludwig scream
From his drunken fathers beatings
But before I weep
In despair or ecstasy
Overwhelmed by his spirit
and agonie
I paint the iris
of my eyes
with black paint
and pretend
that I'm deaf.
