Euthanasia (from the Greek: εὐθανασία meaning "good death": εὖ, eu (well or good) + θάνατος, thanatos (death)) refers to the practice of intentionally ending a life in order to relieve pain and suffering.
There are different euthanasia laws in each country. The British House of Lords Select Committee on Medical Ethics defines euthanasia as "a deliberate intervention undertaken with the express intention of ending a life, to relieve intractable suffering". In the Netherlands, euthanasia is understood as "termination of life by a doctor at the request of a patient".
Euthanasia is categorized in different ways, which include voluntary, non-voluntary, or involuntary. Voluntary euthanasia is legal in some countries and U.S. states. Non-voluntary euthanasia is illegal in all countries. However, in the Netherlands, physicians can avoid prosecution by following well described and strict conditions when non-voluntary euthanasia is performed on infants.Involuntary euthanasia is usually considered murder.
The Four Corners is a region of the United States consisting of the southwestern corner of Colorado, northwestern corner of New Mexico, northeastern corner of Arizona and southeastern corner of Utah. The Four Corners area is named after the quadripoint where the boundaries of the four states meet, where the Four Corners Monument is located. The majority of the Four Corners region is part of semi-autonomous indigenous American Indian nations, the largest of which is the Navajo Nation, followed by Hopi, Ute and Zuni Indian nations. The Four Corners region is part of a larger region known as the Colorado Plateau and is mostly rural, rugged and arid. In addition to the monument, commonly visited areas within Four Corners include Monument Valley, Mesa Verde National Park and Canyon de Chelly National Monument. The most populous city in the Four Corners region is Farmington, New Mexico, followed by Durango, Colorado.
The United States first acquired the area now called Four Corners from Mexico after the Mexican–American War in 1848. In 1863 Congress created Arizona Territory from the western part of New Mexico Territory. The boundary was defined as a line running due south from the southwest corner of Colorado Territory, which had been created in 1861. This was an unusual act of Congress, which almost always defined the boundaries of new territories as lines of latitude or longitude, or following rivers. By defining one boundary as starting at the corner of another Congress ensured the eventual creation of four states meeting at a point, regardless of the inevitable errors of boundary surveying. The area was first surveyed by the U.S. Government in 1868 as part of an effort to make Colorado Territory into a state, the first of the Four Corners states formed. The first marker was placed at the spot in 1912. The first Navajo tribal government was established in 1923 to regulate an increasing number of oil exploration activities on Navajo tribal lands.

I see the future
I see the future coming down on me
Swimming in the sea, coming down on me
Say goodbye, then hit the sky
Say goodbye, then hit the sky
It's lost in space
Somewhere in time, born too late
Too high to climb, too high, too late
Say goodbye, then hit the sky
Say goodbye, then hit the sky
Come into the light, feel alive
Come into the light, feel alright
I'm out of mind, put out of sight
I looked into the future
Now my mind's not right
But it's out of sight
Say goodbye, then hit the sky
Say goodbye, then hit the sky
Heat from the sun
Ignites the air, the air that we breathe
What did you achieve?
Just what did you achieve?
Say goodbye, then hit the sky
Say goodbye, then hit the sky
Come into the light, feel alive
Come into the light, feel alright
Come into the light, feel alive
Come into the light, feel alright
Come into the light, feel alive
Come into the light, feel alright
Come into the light, feel alive
I've been sentenced to death, now my time's near it's
end,
but I'm completely innocent and committed no crime.
I did what any man would do to assist a friend,
my woman's existence cut short in her prime
She was the one; she came to me and a new world began
in loving ecstasy we thought we'd grow old gracefully.
Years passed and her her health fell in decline,
a shadow of a girl that was once mine,
her trembling voice that gasps for every breath,
her weary hands that try and hold back death.
'Twas a tragic end to her long suffering.
A lethal dose will ease you from the pain,
just close your eyes and your dignity will remain.
Peacefully drift away.
Hard to hold back the tears as I watched her die,
thinking of all the happy times now we must part,
it's hard to hide and escape from her dying cry,
it's like a stake being driven through my broken heart.
Her body cold and still, the loneliness of the silent
chill,
her ghostly groan casts a shadow across our devastated
home
So hear my story 'cause the truth is here to see,
I did what was best and set my lover free,
a judge and jury failed to forgive,
they say I denied her the right to live.
'Twas a peaceful end to her long suffering.
Rest in peace my dear; I freed you from the pain,
wait in heaven and we will unite again.
'Cause dead men tell no tales.
After five years on death row still waiting my fate,
my plea fell on deaf ears, the law of the land states,
I must hang from the gallows-the customary practice,
Are you down?
So down?
Slow down cuz it won't get no good
Low?
So low?
I know it can only get worse from here
It turns black from grey
There's no way of getting up now
Now when you are down
Cuz you see
I've got some news for you
There is no way of getting up
And this road will only take you to the end
So come on
It's done
No one is going to help you
And I
I lie
Yes I'd do it again
One thing you know will be there
Is your darkest fear
And now it's time for you to do what's right to do
It's just the way it's meant to be
There is no light at the end to see
Everyday is one step closer
Everyday is one step further down
And do you know where we all are going?
Incompleta
A pleasure of happiness. Strange to me. Among the crowd, depression comes. This fear always defeats me ... (Euthanasia)! I was betrayed by my own heart!
Recognize this kind of dream. Everytime _____ by this _____ Lasting ____ sometimes so sweet, I was betrayed by my own heart!
Euthanasia comes around. Crucified man, I need some help!
Son of God, you are to me the chosen one! Sometimes to learn how live with you, It's needed to fall Son of God, You are to me the only chance! Sometimes to know how to meet you, It's needed to fall

Writing at deaths door
Life is unnecessary for him
Being tied to machines
Won't give him the will to live
Law gives permission to kill
While it prohibits the will to die
People are against
It is his life not yours
Euthanasia
Give him the chance to die
Decision belongs to him
Human rights are against euthanasia
'cos they believe
Human must live
Whatever in peace or in pain
Pain-pain-pain is the same
My life, I loved you so, but can't dream about
A never-ending, sacred night.
Honesty was not my oath in the fields of love I heard
The weeping of her glowing eyes.
My time has come and I pray for all my life sins.
Maybe I will confess to god but without tears.
I'm daze by the light of the eternal way
Behind the gate of times.
Echoes of calls pray for my return,
Calls of known voices.
But she didn't stay with me behind the gate.
I know she didn't stay with me, my only love.
I was alone in a burning house,
I arrived there just in time.
This was to be my last act...
But my mind froze my steps.
I couldn't go on.
Please take my hand
And put it on the cold ground.
I swear, that anything I have not seen
I'll find afterwards.
And maybe one day you'll understand that I looked forward to this.
[Ref.:]
Where is light on my way? I'll give the stone cold heart to fallen angel
Where are their prophecy? I can't dispose of feeling of danger.
I promise, I will be praying for coming souls, theirs fates are here
There are too many worlds, which I would like disclose someday.
I was alone in a small town
I stayed there all my life
I used to hear songs of night in the cemetery
And the tones of church psalms,
Songs of my solitude...
Please show me the sun,
I want to see Mother Earth once more.
I keep seeing the final scenes
When chimeras of life are passing through
My ideas about family and coexistence with love...
[Bridge:]
I wanted to leave quietly
But the opportunity did not come.
Balancing on the edge of madness
With a black candle I extinguished the light of days.
Behind a curtain of sound I felt at home,
In a burning city with the remains of an image in my memory...
The night has come and tender streetlights
Enlight snowy church.
Thousand days ago you had the same thoughts
You are feel lost, without family, sinful and lonely,
Clutch cold handle of majestic doors.
That's time for the shadows of your life,
Eyes of the angels see the tears in our palms.
You're a young man with face of old man,
With scarred body and soul.
The nights are long, getting longer.
States of depression and thoughts of suicide,
Couple of perverted moments and years,
The love was called drug.
States of depression...
Dying and helpless, punishment
The life is silent as the grave
The attempt is doomed to failure
To be in mortal fear
Obituary notice fatally massacred
To the visions of the fatal truth
Stream in feelings heavenly meanings
On the sentence of death
Victim of hell always grotesque
The holy master confesses
By the mortal dread
The angel saved your breath
Euthanasia calling for you
Autopsy flesh digging pain
Euthanasia calling for you
Darkness has come to judge your death
Dead by help dead by dawn
Entrance to hell
Rotten by cancer
Mystery disaster
Freedom of pain
Be in the death throes
Climb up the satan's stairs
She's living her short story, leading for the crime,
She's speaking to mirror of river.
Her inner fight and war against others.
She pervaded into the post-mortem scenery through mist.
So far from valley of morass, from cry of the village bells.
Her soul is not confused. Maybe mind, premonition?
Labeled a madwoman, she seeks from people,
Horrify children voices, girl with scars of decease.
She rises her fiery torch, in the middle
Of the night in the moonlight.
Slowly walking to her revenge, burning homes of enemies.
Lamentations in the wind, humans forever lost.
She's fighting for love and against hate of others.
After everything's burnt, will she feel the mercy and grief?
For father an mothers, hanged for profane lies, for her destiny,
When she defended her soul in darkness.
Without the love of god, with her god or farewell?
In the gardens of deafening amazing
I have fulfilled my destiny
Beyond human understanding of life
When unspoken wishes found freedom
And the desire to awaken frozen time
And open the gate to illusion
In a solitude and understanding of human vanity
I walk through the landscape of forgetfulness.
Foggy curtains hide misunderstanding.
Not everyone can see the unwritten words
Of our destinies,
As we search for the path to sensuality
Permanently trying to leave our trace
We bring nothing into this world
And a simple life offers only a little
Of what we can carry inside of us.
In the gardens of discovered silence
I have fulfilled my destiny.
Take me away, Sir, from the mirror of the past
The tears are dripping in the eternal well
And ripples on the surface create
Impenetrable cells surround the seconds of our lives.
All unspoken,
There is no one left I can confess to.
All unspoken
I can swallow up the letters of those sentences.
All unspoken,
A tongue, as carved from a throat.
All unspoken,
Writing alone on the wall of tears.
The presents has been scattered into the dust
Why do I wake up in the past?
I can see through blind eyes
Into the kingdom of the fallen.
The words I haven't spoken
Are disappearing in the depths of buried hopes.
In the echoes of unlived tomorrows
I learn to listen to the steps of solitude.
Dancing shadows create a silhouette
Of celestial freedom and connection.
I'm waiting by the wall of tears.
Outsider the borders of time, inside the temple of light.
The unspoken desires
When you couldn't peer into my soul.
Unspoken admissions follow you
You drift through my world toward my arms
Without prejudice and monotony.
I promise, as I see you crawling on the ground -
Everything will come to be.
Everyone can see behind the screen
A reflection of heavenly light, but...
We lost our faith
We became lost in the future
Nothing lasts forever.
Where there are damned skies and oceans,
There is time for the pain... and for eternal abandonment.
This human race has overstepped it's condition
A deformation of souls and thoughts.
We're dragging a bloody flag, colored
By the night and the reddest tears.
We lost our face
We lost our identity
Standing on the threshold of a new evolution
Which will be for us the final destination.
I do not believe anyone remembers
What exists around us.
We close our eyes and we know why
We fight for money and the children cry.
We lost our pain,
We lost our judgement.
Nothing lasts forever.
Whoever wants to stare at empty hearts
Can lift up his eyes... and thousands of phrases echo from faraway
Who cannot cross over must find his end...
That is what we chose, there can be nothing else.
You should die but they won’t let you.
They’ve plugged you in so you have to,
stay alive cause they don’t want to,
let you die like your supposed to.
Life is nimble, death is quick.
Who knows the cure for what makes you sick?
How much longer will machines prolong,
the unavoidable death of a lifeless form?
You should die, they can’t help you.
Came back to life or let death release you.
What should I do, should I kill you?
What is right, what is wrong?
Life is nimble, death is quick.
Who knows the cure for what makes you sick?
How much longer will machines prolong,
Walk the twisted road that makes you bleed again
The same one that made you dry like an empty well
Smash your head into the wall again
You were a slave in heaven and now a superstar in hell
And in the pouring rain...
Lie like a black-thorned rose,
In a sea of harpies, dream,
Dream for the euthanasia,
Dream and dream...
Fall between the lines that made you scream again
so loud it made you crack just like a broken doll
And a magic pill to fix a broken will
We'll break the walls of silence,
Until the sun comes shining through
And in the pouring rain...
Lie like a black-thorned rose,
In a sea of poppies, dream,
Dream for the euthanisia,
Dream and dream...
And in the pouring rain...
Lie like a black-thorned rose,
In a sea of puppies, dream,
Dream for the euthanisia,
Dream and dream...
Lie like a black-thorned rose,
In a sea of puppies, dream,
Dream for the euthanisia,
The sun means day and night for us is resurrection.
Wings of years don't save our weakness
The bells of churches our joy, our care.
The room is darkened I can't hear the voice.
The dream is alive and I see you all of us again.
I crossed the dark and I see the past, here am I?
Maybe I'll breathe maybe I'll stay with you or
Beyond the gate?
We're smiling and crying, your name sounds in our ears.
I don't believe, I'm on the way between the death and eternity
And I'd like to wake in your kingdom on one day.
We're just puppets you haven't changes us, we're
Afraid in your arms.
Invocation:
The gate of the eternal temple is opening, it's so near...
(I am the key... , I am the key...)
I'm on the burning stairs
Closer to the dark horizon.
On a hospital bed...
I'm losing the moments of my reality.
I was a sinner tested by fate
I didn't know the value of the gift of life
I was a stranger in every street
And maybe it wasn't me...
I'm in an endless space
I can hear the beat of my heart.
My failures paid for my eternity
My bottomless well of sins is full...
I felt young for all my life
I was close to my unfulfilled dreams
Pictures of the past mean a desire and dream
Lead me through the way of truth; I want to be back in my life.
Stay by my side
I've to make a lot of things right
Stay by my side
The time for violence is gone
I pray for those lives
Which remained in front of the Gates
I pray for those souls
Whose voices I can hear every night.
I can see you all,
Who live your lives without meaning
Love for your family
Hides disagreements leading to pain and losses.
I am for my doom, as like you.
But I have one chance to open my heart
At the end, we are all the same
From difficulty and disaster to the path of hope.
The members of NIM (National Identity Movement),
Friends, brothers and sisters to Kathrin.
Under the mask of understanding, they sway in their hands
The tools of annihilation
The planned violence is changing the vision of revolution
The reality of these days is spinning roulette wheel
Removing Erin takes it's toll
The idea of a struggle for their own conviction
Fails in attempts to declare the ideal
The message engulfed in the joy of emotional motives
Turns into the hunt for the renegade
It's hard leave under the threat of uncompromising attack
Every time she turns round the corner
She is afraid they will be there.
I don't wanna be there when they break through her door
Every day now is the day of the rope.
You may hope to see wake up the sun.
Joy and happiness, strangers to your minds.
Your only certitude in this damned world is
The innocence is lost.
The songs of your fatherlands, undesired pride.
Tons of live arms are the flags of fire.
You lost all brothers, so suddenly.
This cruel damned world we still cherish.
Just silent memory sounds in my head.
So many ways to destroy mankind.
We have chosen the shortest way ever known,
Do I hear the song of freedom?
In an empty house, where I had seen your face
Eternal silence came you disappeared without trace.
Behind the empty house smell of arms like a witness.
One cruelty is over, hatred breed fear
Maybe you disappeared.
If loving means losing, then love in the afterlife.
Light and dark, we always fumble at the bottom of conscience.
Slave and time, all stories of horror go repeating... of violence.
Light and dark, why do I keep the seeing wraith of your soul.
Slave and time, all stories of horror go repeating... of violence.
Stay alive, another sunset. No time to cry, I must tell you.
Oh, how I would die for you. Stay alive, another dawn.
In the meadow full of flowers and scared with crosses.
Please, wait for me!
Gekas na svou chvili, propadls falesnemu chtici
Je to noc zklamanych dusi, neni nic, co te znici.
Tise spi, zivotem vonici, telo mlady dcery tvy.
Odsouzena na tvoje hrichy, na dlouhy minuty sileny.
Studena samota prochazi telem tvym, telem tvym,
Vzdyt sis to pral.
Tvoje city dabel hlida, je bezmocna, chces jeji telo, jeji dech.
Pral sis horet v jejim tele studenym,
Hazdy odpor znicit, I kdyz nechce - musis to mit.
V mori slanych slz se pritom utapi,
Detsky hlas, detsky plac, detsky splin.
Pral sis horet v jejim tele studenym,
Kazdy odpor znicit, I kdyz nechce - musis to mit.
V mori slanych slz se pritom utapi,
Detsky hlas, detsky plac, detsky splin.
Proklina te a silnej rev, je tak znicena.
Posila te do pekel, kde misto mas.
S nozem ted, ses posel smrti, chces videt krev.
Je to noc zklamanych dusi, neni nic, co te znici.
Zatmeni v lebce, branis svuj chtic,
Slaba se trese, mlatis ji vic.
Nervy ti praskly, uz ztraci zvuj dech,
Jses jako zvire, chces posledni vydech.
Proc ses tu dal, skyz ztuhla uz je,
Navzdy uz spi, smutek nasleduje.
Prazdny dum, kde si zustal sam a jenom telo dcery tvy
Tu spi, zdeseni, kdyz vidis z jeji hlavy kapat krev
Ted vis, ze je bliz a bliz, den, sdy tu svou pout zakoncis.
Ghtel si horet v jejim tele studenym,
V sobe tolik chlastu, stal ses katem silenym.
Vecne ticho v zilach samotu rozleva,
Zradnej chtic zase prekonal tvoje ja.
Ghtel si horet v jejim tele studenym,
Kdyz prislo mlhavy rano, doufals, ze jenom snis.
Tak si shorel v jejim tele studenym
A prisel cas, kdys musel jit za ni,
Odejit, navzdy jit za ni.
We want to be honest and satisfied till the end of our days.
Millions eyes so often are blind it's agony of mankind.
The hate is born, the hate arose from perfidious love.
The wicked people rule over this world and children's cry
In the anthem of mankind.
We know the prophecy of our ancestors of the truth,
Turning into the light.
He, who promises true love and peace, then sells the war and fear.
The hate is born, the hate arose from perfidious love.
We live together in poverty and wealth,
We destroy hearts, loving their own lives.
The moonlight mirage of damned lake
Quiet screams of souls from the bottom of the wattery graveyard
And the look of a blind old man.
An image of inviolability and blind faith
Dying memories, like a life clenched in a fist.

Impious and sinful life, ravens nation is born.
We hold the cross of thorns in palms of blood.
Chorales sounds through the valley,
Celebration of the earthly life and lustful
Bodies of beauties mean sin.
Beings clad in the darkness from god's will chosen.
Coming to the village with finite resolution.
Accusation and deceit, holy will orders revenge.
Envoys of fornication driven away in wagons.
Stoupa jen dym a jak zalostny je plac vsech lidi
Kolem a z nebes cerna zar.
Pod krizem spi vzdy jen proroctvi a splin a tisice
Tvari uz zmenili jste v dym.
Zkousite Ihat sami sobe v motlitbach a hrisnikum
Svym smrt vykoupenim dat.
Zapalena je uz hranice vsech tel,
Jak zakon vam kaze, vse spalit na popel.
i came to die
terminal patient
dies inside
pain & evil
side by side
final treatment
final fear
come and take me
out of here
i came to die
Death is the easiest in life
Life is the most difficult
But life on earth is hell
If you are forgotten shared out
Physical defection deprives you of being
Of being of full value.
It humiliates and breaks the mind
Into multitude of fragments depriving by this
The unbroken one and turning into half
Avoiding the light you're hail
The darkness killing the remains of those
What is impossible to doubt.
He who lives for darkness is dangerous
In light not releasing this
Believe to understand you are sentenced for life
There is no necessity to believe in hell
Which is denied by our reason.
Believe in heaven
For which our souls needing
But this thought invariable
Persecutes us insisting to think about fearful
For most of us death is tragic inevitability,
Distress, eternal cold and darkness.
But look around and fall to think
How many people needs to die in order
To calm down into unbeing
Where are your graves?
You cannot hear a bird's song.
Innocent lives witnesses of disaster.
Forgotten names what have become of them?
In wild river never can they awake.
Penetrating flames, they're calling to myself
God sees it from afar, but leaves it till the end.
If I could drive away these clouds by my strong breath,
You wouldn't have to wait for salvation and empty future
I knew the gorgeous woods and valleys
Scents of flowers and trees,
Now you are living in Lakeland and dying days.
