Текст песни: The Page at the End of the Internet + перевод

Suddenly I found it

The page at the end of the internet

As I did sink through trails of links

Somehow I landed there

The address was all asterisks

No paths leading in or out of it

A visit counter at the top read zero-zero-one

The background: tiny tiled stars in the night sky

A midi file droning single notes at a time

A row of gifs of planet earth, all their rotations in line

A cluster block of times new roman all caps center aligned

And this is what it said:

«I looked into the mirror. The person who looked back was not myself.

They were the other. God’s unfortunate messenger. They had a message for me.

For the whole world. They told me the truth. They told me the world would end

when its core stopped spinning. There was an urgency to their message.

The event would happen soon. I saw the earth from space. The great blue dot.

But it wasn’t blue. It was now red. Like the whole world was ablaze.

One supercontinent wrapping around its center with its oceans on its top and

bottom. I saw the world break. Huge cracks in the earth. In them the throne of

beelzebub was visible. His red hot gaze burnt the souls right out of those

unfortunate to be too close. I saw the earth stop moving., atmosphere still

traveled. Thousand mile winds still spinning on a stationary earth.

Thousand mile winds still spinning on a stationary earth. Mountaintops torn

off their bases. Trees violently uprooted. A young boy ripped from his mothers

arms which were ripped from their sockets entirely. All sent skyward at a speed

I could barely comprehend. I saw men whose feet once stood firmly on the ground

flying. No, floating. Helplessly flailing. Their eyes bulged. Their stomachs

distended to the point of bursting. Then they burst. Their viscera floating

away from them as their lifeless bodies looked on. I saw men, women, children.

Their skin so burned and covered in blisters they no longer looked human.

The sun’s radiation turning them into something otherworldly. Then the vision

stopped. The person in the mirror stared back. The strangest thing happened.

A burning sensation in the back of my skull. Four numbers branded into the

neural cavities. Days. Hours. Minutes. Seconds. The numbers kept flipping.

Changing. Counting down. I knew when these numbers reached zero the core would

stop spinning. The world would end. The prophecy would become true.

The numbers are still there. Now I will relay them to you. Counting down

37 days, 12 hrs, 33 mins, 53 sec

37 days, 12 hrs, 33 mins, 50 sec

37 days, 12 hrs, 33 mins, 47 sec.»
