Ars Longa Vita Brevis

[Verse 1]
There's nothing left of me to see
Among the shadows I am drowning in
The thought of washing off my sin
Is soothing, I surrender to the sea

[Chorus]
My death is being put on display
It's magnificent, you can't put it any other way
Nothing beautiful ever lives long
Vita brevis, ars longa

[Verse 2]
There's no decisions left to make
But no decisions - no mistakes
Rosemaries and poppies in my hands
My dress grows heavy, water makes a deadly weight

[Chorus]
Life, like a thousand white moths
Clings to light, and light makes up for its loss
But I am desperate to end this
Ars longa, vita brevis
