Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
If we were the only ones left
we'd lay in bed
Watching tapes
of how we used to be before
You hear them knocking
on your door
So
In a language
you should know:
Det gjør ingenting
om du er her
Det gjør ingenting
at jeg har mistet alt håp
så lenge du er her
Det gjør ingenting
at jeg har mistet troen på meg selv
så lenge du er her
Det gjør ingenting
om havet revner
Og alt skylles bort
så lenge du er her
Det gjør ingenting
om du ikke vet det selv
Så lenge du er her
i all evighet
we'd lay in bed
Watching tapes
of how we used to be before
You hear them knocking
on your door
So
In a language
you should know:
Det gjør ingenting
om du er her
Det gjør ingenting
at jeg har mistet alt håp
så lenge du er her
Det gjør ingenting
at jeg har mistet troen på meg selv
så lenge du er her
Det gjør ingenting
om havet revner
Og alt skylles bort
så lenge du er her
Det gjør ingenting
om du ikke vet det selv
Så lenge du er her
i all evighet

i got a friend of a friend to translate the lyrics of jesuva for me, they are as follows:
If we were the only ones left we'd lay in bed Watching tapes of how we used to be before You hear them knocking on your door
So In a language you should know:
Det gjør ingenting om du er her
It doesn't matter if you are here
Det gjør ingenting at jeg har mistet alt håp så lenge du er her
It doesn't matter if (or that) I have lost all hope as long as you are here
Det gjør ingenting at jeg har mistet troen på meg selv så lenge du er her
It doesn't matter if (or that) I have lost my self steam (or belief in my self) as long as you are here
Det gjør ingenting om havet revner Og alt skylles bort så lenge du er her
It doesn't matter if sea opens up and everything is washed away (this is a biblical expression so my translation might be wrong) as long as you are here
Det gjør ingenting om du ikke vet det selv Så lenge du er her i all evighet
It doesn't matter if you don't know it your self as long as you are here in all eternity
