Παραλύω [Paralio] [English translation]

It seems like the day has blended into the night

And it seems to me that death and life are one and the same

And, on the heart monitor's screen, my heartbeat

Looks like an endless straight line

And it seems like you accidentally stopped time

And everything has crashed into my face;

Changing me deep inside...

And I feel fear inside my chest

As bitter as burnt remnants in a coffee pot

And I see that the light in my mind

Fades a little more with each passing day

And, in the mirror, my face changes

And it becomes another face; a face I don't know

That horrifies me.

I paralyze,

I feel as if the world had disappeared under my feet

Like on the first day of school in August

And, in my heart, the temperature has reached minus two

I paralyze

(I hear) brakes squealing, a horn blares

And a bus rushes by just a few inches from my body

And then, when I think that I must still live without you

I paralyze

I see my life as if it were a gigantic wall

That stands at the end of the road

And the voices of the children in the school's playground

Resound in my ears like a threnody

And the road that once lead me

To your doorstep

Isn't there anymore
