Select language to translate this lyric
Loüm the giant black obelisk stands before me
Nothing left behind, nowhere but forward
No way to go forward but up, up
The mighty wall seems to touch the sky
There's no way around, or stay and die
The forces behind me are drawing ever closer
No choice left, I must climb the ancient black monolith
Climbing, climbing, ever higher
Foothold by small foothold
Careful not to fall from the growing heights
Making haste to escape what lies below
Feeling the presence of evil nearing its way toward me
Ascending the titan Loüm is the only path to sanctuary
Half-awake, half-dead, exhausted and half-crazed
Has this crossing been hours or has it been days?
Hungry, tired, in a trance, yet I must push on
With bloody hands and feet and knees I near the crest of Loüm
As this odyssey nears its close I fear what lies beyond
