Lyrics in English:
Anguished grief, rage beyond measure;
Grieving despair, full of madness;
Endless languishing and a life of misfortune
Full of tears, anguish and torment;
Doleful heart living in darkness,
Ghostly body at the brink of death
I have ceaselessly, continually;
And so, I can neither be healed nor die.
OUTRO (A priest during a celebration…): ‘In the world, many men and women, many children both deaf and impaired are cut off from all communication, strangers amongst their brethren, wounded by those they love. May the Lord accompany them so that their hands and their eyes become a sign of reconciliation.’
The whole thing especially with the Jacques Callot art in this video is just a beautiful experience. I think I like this demo version better than the sped up one that made it into the album.
