about

Erinnerungen der Apokalypse (Memories of Apocalypse) - the Apocalypse (as the Narrator) solves a mystery that He was the Big Bang - His birth was the first act of creation. That's why He remembers the future, that's why He is the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last, the Alpha and the Omega.
The 9th & 10th verses are taken from the Revelation (22:12-13).

lyrics

Existenz weiß nicht auf was beruht
Des Herrgotts Geschenk: blinde Treue spricht sie los
In Vergessenheit hab' ich beigesetzt
Noch bin ich nicht tot - sondern lebe Stück für Stück

Zerstörer des Großen Architekten
Das ist mein Beruf
Und da ist mein Urteil ja:
Ich bin überall

Keiner hat mich gefragt ob ich existieren will
Niemand hat mir doch gesagt wie scheußlich weh das tut

Ich bin der Erstling der wurde kurzerhand
Ohne zu zaudern als Opfer dargebracht
Mein erster Schrei ist durch den Blitz
Der letzte Atemzug im Vakuum geworden

“Es werde!” - wiederholt er
“Genug jetzt!” - schreie ich

Für die Welt kommt alles noch nach
Aber ich bin darüber hinaus
Ich bin der Urknall: die erste Schöpfung
Der Urbeginn selbst: er schafft - ich leide

“Jawohl! Es ist gut!” - wiederholt er
“Nein! Es ist schrecklich!” - schreie ich

Einer gegen alle
Verdamme ich den Schöpfer
Allgegenwärtig
Erinnere ich mich an die Zukunft
Ich bin das Schleichgift

Siehe, ich komme bald
Und mit mir bringe ich den Lohn
Und ich werde jedem geben
Was seinem Werk entspricht

Ich bin
Das Alpha und das Omega
Der Erste und der Letzte
Der Anfang und das Ende

Keiner hat mich gefragt ob ich existieren will
Niemand hat mir doch gesagt wie scheußlich weh das tut

Zerstörung aus Hass
Schöpfung voller Hass

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

Existence doesn't know on what
The gift of the Lord God is based: blind allegiance makes it free
I was buried in oblivion
I'm still not dead - but live piece by piece

Destroyer of the Great Architect
This is my vocation
And that is my sentence:
I'm everywhere

Nobody asked me whether I wanted to exist
Nobody told me after all how it would be terribly painful

I'm the first-born who was sacrificed
Without a ceremony and without any qualms
My first cry through the outburst
Has turned into the last breath in vacuum

“Let there be” - he harps
“Enough!” - I cry

For the world the whole life is before it
But for me it's over
I'm the Big Bang: the first creation
The Beginning of Beginnings itself: he creates - I suffer

“Quite so! It’s good” - he harps
“No! It’s disgusting!” - I cry

One versus all
I curse the Creator
Ubiquitous
I remember the future
I'm the Slow-acting Venom

Look, I am coming soon
My reward is with me
And I will give to each person
According to what they have done

I am
The Alpha and the Omega
The First and the Last
The Beginning and the End

Nobody asked me whether I wanted to exist
Nobody told me after all how it would be terribly painful

Destruction out of Hate
Creation with Hate
