Testimonium
Lacrimosa
Testimony
I won’t give up my existence
Like a dying man in flesh
No sorrow is left behind
A victim now stuck with loss
I am the witness of my mortality
The witness of my own death
Here I am, just watching myself
Death spreads over me
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
As a true, real witness of my own death
I experience dying, here in my own body
Oh, as a true, real witness of my own death
Oh, I experience dying here and now within me, ah ah ah
My road doesn’t end there at the gate
That the body is denied to cross
Nor does the body finally set me free, set me free, set me free
Trapped here inside me
Where death does not welcome me
No rest, no turning back
No comfort and no sorrow
No rest, no turning back
No comfort and no sorrow
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
As a true, real witness of my own death
I experience dying, here in my own body
As a true, real witness of my own death
Oh, I experience dying here in my own body
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
Witness to my death
