Текст песни The Harrowing Years (Insomnium) с переводом

This I have learnt:

World forces all of us down

The fleeing years bend our backs

Love but smears our hearts

Here I now lie still like a broken bow

Soul sullen and rigid with the will to die

Sighing after the days long since gone

Cursing every step on this ill-fated trail

In vain I try to forget

In vain I try to forgive

Black bird from evening sky

Raven from heaths of night

Come and take my cares

Carry away the grief

Bereave me of my woes

Rend off these earthly throes

Fly them to deepest lakes

To the starlit shores

This I have learnt:

Even the sweetest wine turns sour

We work our fingers to the bone

All our efforts of no avail

Here we all are but troubled guests

On darkling earth

Lost echoes that pine away

Into the dusk

Nothing more than the wind to rely on

Nothing more than the death

To comfort us in the end

In vain I try to forget

In vain I try to forgive

Black bird from evening sky

Raven from heaths of night

Come and take my cares

Carry away the grief

Bereave me of my woes

Rend off these earthly throes

Fly them to deepest lakes

To the starlit shores

This I have heard:

All ends in serene sleep

All these sorrows are washed away

As we lapse into the night

As we lapse into the night

But I know it’s a lie

I know it’s a lie
