Ella Nunca Despertó I

from III by IMPERATOR

/

about

Written for a long-term friend who commited suicide, for her is this complex and poorly performed track, with the title being translated as "She never woke up", a reference to the way she died, using sleeping pills that she stole from the medics at the mental hospital.
This is for you Michelle
R.I.P.

NOTE: The whole song was 32:40 long, and was divided into three parts, however, I pefer to have just this one, as it was the one that came out of the pure feeling of loss for her.

lyrics

Ahora bajo el yugo del pesar
mi alma muerta yace,
mi mente corroída por el mal
se vuelve turbia, se desvance.

El sol se oculta sin piedad,
la luz se asfixia, fallece.

Muerte, te has llevado a mi hija;
has fulminado su triste vida.
Muerte, te has llevado a mi amiga.
Muerte, con mentiras a tus brazos se entregó.

Alma en pena, en tinieblas
de su progenie, ella no se encargó.

Su voz en la obscuridad
me pregunta, ¿Por qué tiemblas?
