Translation Lyrics
the whole world rises up
the whole world but us
are we sturdy enough?
the same black river weaves its path
snakes its line between me and you
it makes its constant rule
constant change
it makes its constant rule
constant change
and i'll see two breaths at the boundary
one will be me and the other will see me and say:
there is nothing reliable like change (x2)
be your own guide (x4)
cause there's nothing reliable like change
there is nothing reliable like change (x2)
the whole world but us
are we sturdy enough?
the same black river weaves its path
snakes its line between me and you
constant change
it makes its constant rule
constant change
one will be me and the other will see me and say:
be your own guide (x4)
cause there's nothing reliable like change
there is nothing reliable like change (x2)

This song is so incredibly haunting and melancholic. I think the song meaning can be summed up in the lyrics "there is nothing reliable like change, be your own guide".
As for the rest of the lyrics, it's about two people that have a darkness inside themselves (as well all do, we are human of course). You can't spend time wondering whether the other will leave the relationship (cross the boundary). You just have to be your own guide.
