Jeunesse Dor​é​e

from Mitanni Mares by Gustave Tiger

lyrics

I lived to see my world going down, so I said now I'll write my book of dying. Nowhere I found enough to write, so I took some poison and lay back in the light. And I found myself in a village green, with all my fathers buried there, five fathom deep. And one said "Hey boy, you're going down, down the same road we took, into the ground".

Dora, Dora, Dora, I was always meant to tell you, I was weak and I was lying I wasted all my stupid life on trying to be someone else.

Then I rose serenely and forgot how to speak knew my words long ago, they all turned so weak, then I saw Dora flying above the fields and knew my book of dying just became complete
