Farewell (an old poem)

In a dream you came
Drawing blood of the innocent
Oh, you were once fair, sweet

Guilt trips
Journeys into the shadow of the mind
How could I stop you?

En gang kjente jeg deg
En gang var du min

I betrayed you
You were too dangerous to me
Oh, the sweet fear of the darkness
The sweet fear of the unknown

You scared me, friend
But in the end, I knew you used me as I had used you

Drømmer om lykke
Drømmer om et godt liv
En søt stank kom sigende inn i paradis
En fallen frukt
Et råttent eple
Paradis falt

We were never friends

Merely partners in crime
Both guilty of betraying ourselves
I was saved
You still linger in the dark, unable to free yourself of the chains you created

I met you in a dream
Told you why I ran, why I despise you
You vampire, you unattractive eater of life

Jeg stolte aldri på deg, vet du
Du kan ikke for alltid leve i din egen boble
For hvert tjærefylte pust ble omverdenen svartere
Sola kunne ikke lenger entre ditt sinn

How could he know?

Only for a certain amount of time can you blame your innocent mind

Løp og gjem deg bak en diagnose
Gjem deg bak noen ord
Flyt vekk i uskyld

You are a dark force
Swiping over the ridden land
So easy to use the weak
So easy to control the human mind

”Pity me
Look at me
I am used
I am lonely
Pity me”

I en verden av omtanke var du i ditt ess

A twisted ace of spades.

So dark
You always were so dark
Oh! the rotten flesh of your hands
The sick depths of your mind

You have lost to yourself
Nobody can save you now
What a pity!

You came to me in a dream
Wet, cold and lonely
Demanding answers

Never touch me!
Never use me!
Never come near me again!

Hva skal jeg si?
Kanskje jeg en dag kan se deg fri?
Men dine skarpe tenner og bulende øyne tar strupetak

You frightened me
Ran after me, trying to catch me

In a dream you came
Invading my mind

And in a dream I saw your true self
Reflected in the mirror of the soul was nothing
Vampire!
Creep!
Never think of me again, for you are unworthy

Skitne halvkaste
Djevelen smittet deg med sin sjarm og sin stemme
Vik fra mitt lys, slange
La sjelen min hjemsøke deg
La lyset mitt vise deg veien tilbake

You are lost
I am sorry, I cannot save you
You are too deep, too far gone
Your mind is a maze of darkness
Of illegal thoughs and shameful dreams

Farewell,
Farewell to my friend deep innside of you
Sorry to leave you there
But this mess is not mine

Farvel, min venn
Jeg vet du er der inne
En siste stråle av mitt lys sender jeg deg

And then you’re on your own.
