lengsel - the world monotone lyrics

[words: tor magne, music: tor magne and lengsel]

remove the tears
and the thrill they give
and melancholy (melancholy)
will become a burden
rather than a strength
devastates me
divides me

among gods
i crawl
in a condition
forced upon me
freedom a straining thought
uncomplete

fling salt in my eyes
so that the inner well
may drain away
and my visit stand visible
before me
restless

i realize what i have summoned
hear the death-conscious moan
the world monotone is now the nervous one
the world monotone is now the nervous one
