Lyrics by V.Bryusov

Где океан, век за веком стучась о граниты,
Тайны свои разглашает в задумчивом гуле,
Высится остров, давно моряками забытый,-
                   Ultima Thule.
Вымерли кОнунги, здесь что царили когда-то,
Их корабли у чужих берегов затонули.
Грозно безлЮдье вокруг, и молчаньем объята
                   Ultima Thule.
Даже и птицы чуждаются хмурых прибрежий,
Где и тюлени на камнях не дремлют в июле,
Где и киты проплывают все реже и реже...
                   Ultima Thule.
Остров, где нет ничего и где все только было,
Краем желанным ты кажешься мне потому ли?
Властно к тебе я влеком неизведанной силой,
                   Ultima Thule.
Пусть на твоих плоскогорьях я буду единым!
Я посещу ряд могил, где герои уснули,
Я поклонюсь твоим древним угрюмым руинам,
                   Ultima Thule.
И, как король, что в бессмертной балладе помянут,
Брошу свой кубок с утеса, в добычу акуле!
Канет он в бездне, и с ним все желания канут...
                   Ultima Thule!

Translation:

Where the ocean, for centuries, knocks on the granite,
Divulging its secrets in a pensive roar,
Rises an island, long forgotten by mariners-
Ultima Thule.

The kings who once ruled here have perished,
Their ships have sunk near foreign shores.
Grim desolation surrounds, and silence embraces
Ultima Thule.

Even the birds shun these somber shores,
Where seals on the rocks don't doze in July,
Where whales swim by less and less frequently...
Ultima Thule.

Island, where nothing exists, and where all once was,
Is that why you seem to me a desired land?
I am powerfully drawn to you by an unknown force,
Ultima Thule.

Let me be the only one on your plateaus!
I will visit a row of graves where heroes have fallen asleep,
I will bow to your ancient, gloomy ruins,
Ultima Thule.

And, like the king remembered in the immortal ballad,
I will throw my goblet from the cliff, a prize for the shark!
It will sink into the abyss, and with it, all desires will vanish...
Ultima Thule!

«Anywhere Else is a song about anxiety. Not the panicky, all-consuming kind that often results in a severe physical reaction, but a smoldering and quiet sort of anxiety, a sort of uncomfortable buzzing in the body that never quite leaves you be. It took me many years to understand that this also is a form of anxiety. It can be relatively quiet, but it's there - always. This has had me in a soft grip for a long while, and I wrote Anywhere Else before I understood what it really was that I was experiencing. I thought it was normal to feel a bubbling sense of fear almost all the time. It can make me have a hard time deciding seemingly small things like what I'm going to eat, where I'm going to go on a walk, what coffee shop I'm going to go to, what I should wear, what I should do with my day, etc. It's a constant that I've felt for most of my life, without really understanding it or believing it to be anything but ordinary.  I've decided to release Anywhere Else at this time as it feels extra potent for me at the moment, with so many of us feeling a lot of uncertainty and fear about what's happening. I hope it can provide some comfort.»
