Hand in hand,

there is no greater darkness

than the one that's growing steadily between us.

Hand in hand,

there is no greater darkness

than the one that's growing steadily between you and me.

United scars... the dripping blood

and a body that fears no one but itself!

As above, so we are: So below, as we are!

In the blink of an eye

stars collapse and we are here,

hand in hand and torn apart.

Can’t you hear the countdown?

Can’t you hear the clocks

that are ticking in our hearts?

And so we are

and so we have been

since the dawn of time:

Hand in hand.

And there’s no greater shadow

than the one we cast upon our own salvation.

We closed our minds to each other

So we could see nothing more

than a feeble glimpse.

And what we saw was that time flew in vain,

so there’s no room for ourselves.

And so we are

and so we have been

since the dawn of time:

Hand in hand.

And there’s no greater history

than the one we're writing with our own sweat.
