Vocals: Eva Schwabe
Piano: Christofer Bjurström

lyrics

I saw many friends, and the friend I loved the most among them
Helplessly sunk into the swamp
I pass by daily.

And a drowning was not over
In a single morning.
This made it more terrible.
And the memory
Of our long talks
About the swamp, which already
Held so many powerless.

Now I watched him leaning back
Covered with leeches
In the shimmering
Softly moving slime:
Upon the sinking face
The ghastly
Blissful smile.
