Would anybody dare to know the answer ?
Would anybody dare to face the truth ?
We bide the time awaiting our answers
To our kind

We’re all in this apocalypse together
The horror we so feared can’t be undone
We all remove allegiance to disaster
Tragic crime

Life we used to know
Ends where silence comes to us forever
Night will soon bestow
Justice on a day that never ends

The piercing eyes of bullets’ shine run faster
Than peace and understanding can conceive
To use and to deceive to teach a lesson
Cross the line

Life we used to know
Ends where silence comes to us forever
Night will soon bestow
Justice on a day that never ends

I’m a true believer
A soldier with a gun
I shall swipe the earth clean
Won’t take long

Te deplangemus
Haud resistentes
A te vexati
Manebimus

I must trust my instinct
And act on his behalf
My ship is full with water
But won’t go down

Life we used to know
Ends where silence comes to us forever
Night will soon bestow
Justice on a day that never ends

Life we used to know
Ends where silence comes to us forever
Night will soon bestow
Justice on a day that never ends
Never ends

This song is dedicated to the victims of Anders Breivik, a Norwegian far-right terrorist who killed eight people by detonating a van bomb amid the Regjeringskvartalet in Oslo, then shot dead 69 participants of a Workers’ Youth League summer camp on the island of Utøya in 2011.
