If I die in this world
Who will know something of me?
I am lost, no one knows
There's no trace of my yearning

If I die in this world (but I must carry on)
Who will know something of me? (Nothing worse can befall)
I am lost, no one knows (all my fears, all my tears)
There's no trace of my yearning (tell my heart there's a hole)

I wear a void
Not even hope
A downward slope
Is all I see

I wear a void (as long as breath comes from my mouth)
Not even hope (I may yet stand the slightest chance)
A downward slope (a shaft of light is all I need)
Is all I see (to cease the darkness killing me)
