Only ashes and bones remain   My hair is wet, my eyes are sore   The past has been fed to the flames   I cannot breathe anymore      I try to stand on my feet, but I fall   I try to walk, but I crawl   Life – as we knew it, is over   And you are gone   Forever gone …      I will not bend to a cross   I will not kneel at your feet      Greed and anger   Made us younger   Couldn't save us when the tower fell   All my strength and all my hunger   All is lost   And none will live to tell      I rest in the ruins of days gone by   Of young affection and velvet sky   A slave to greed …   I do not feel regret anymore   I sense the presence of birds   Encircling me …   And I am gone      Til jord skal vi bli      Dark is the night   Dead is the moon   I will not kneel      I'd rather die   Facing my doom   I will not kneel
