And to the end I need to say.
And to the end I need to say:
Farewell! Your love's not your duty!
No matter that I'm doing step
To highest level of insanity...
How did you love?
You did destroy to ruins
Everything around.
How did you love?
You ruined all,
Up to end and to the ground.

And to the end I need to say...
The work by mind
Is still performed.
But hands are free
And couldn't be raised up.
The flock of scents and sounds off
Fly to the sky to greater height, but...
But to the end I need to say:
Farewell! Your love's not your duty!
No matter that I'm doing step
To highest level of insanity.

So to the end I need to say...
