RE: Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 2

Yay! They finally released the lyrics!

As somebody who's taken 8 years of Latin, yall are being way, way too literal with the translation. You just can't translate word for word and capture the actual meaning of the song; take a look at what those phrases are saying and pick some phrases in English that make more sense.

For example, like I've pointed out in the past, "Memento Mori" literally means "Remember (the) death" but that's not a phrase that really makes sense or something we'd use on a daily basis. The idiom is used primarily to mean, "Remember that you will die," which is not at all a word-for-word translation of the phrase.
