Rhinemaidens
I met you in the middle of a raincloud
I had just received the final blow, knockout
You, my smelling salt by way the sea
Oh, it seemed, as though I'd finally re-attached this phantom limb
Twitching into place where it had always been
Pins and needles felt like cotton
Laugh because you know you're free for the time being
In the dark, I can find my way because I feel the sparks
Surging from your fingers just like kind remarks
Telling me the day is coming soon
Would you be my Freia with her apples, or the seventh seal
Signalling the rapture and a call to kneel
"No" we say, cause it's not coming
I left you in the middle of a dustcloud
Hoping then to lose you like a ship in fog
But palms across the desert crossed the sea
Were my last words not quite as sobering as my epitaph
Faint hymns and unuttered oaths, they line the path
But I'd like to bypass ruin
Let's sing songs and spite the devil, spite the devil, spite him.
Doncellas del Rin
Te encontré en medio de una nube de lluvia
Acababa de recibir el golpe final, nocaut
Tú, mi sales aromáticas a través del mar
Oh, parecía como si finalmente hubiera vuelto a unir este miembro fantasma
Temblando en su lugar donde siempre había estado
Agujas y alfileres se sentían como algodón
Ríe porque sabes que eres libre por el momento
En la oscuridad, puedo encontrar mi camino porque siento las chispas
Que surgen de tus dedos como amables comentarios
Diciéndome que el día se acerca pronto
¿Serías mi Freia con sus manzanas, o el séptimo sello
Señalando el rapto y una llamada a arrodillarse
