We are going under the water... in neutral waters. We can disregard the weather all year long, And if we are caught, the alarm will howl About our fate! Save our souls! We hallucinate from suffocation! Save our souls! Hurry up! Please, hear us out on a shore! Our SOS signal is weaker and fainter, And the horror is stabbing our souls in half! The aortas are ripping, but do not dare to go up! There left and right, and straight ahead Stays in our way Death with the horns!   Save our souls! We hallucinate from suffocation! Save our souls! Hurry up! Please, hear us out on a shore! Our SOS signal is weaker and fainter, And the horror is stabbing our souls in half! But we are free here, Since this is our world. No hysterics! Or we’ll crash into the shore!     Save our souls! We hallucinate from suffocation! Save our souls! Hurry up! Please, hear us out on a shore! Our SOS signal is weaker and fainter, And the horror is stabbing our souls in half! We’ll swim up in the morning. Order is order! It’s easier to die under the sun! Our path is not traced, We have nothing to mark it, But remember us! Save our souls! We hallucinate from suffocation! Save our souls! Hurry up! Please, hear us out on a shore! Our SOS signal is weaker and fainter, And the horror is stabbing our souls in half! Here we swam up, but no exit’s in sight! Full speed! The nerves are on the edge! The finish of all sadness, of all beginnings and the ends had come! We’re charging towards the pier Instead of torpedoes! Save our souls! We hallucinate from suffocation! Save our souls! Hurry up! Please, hear us out on a shore! Our SOS signal is weaker and fainter, And the horror is stabbing our souls in half!
