|
"Climbing up the tower, I'm on my way to light
|
Escaping from the castle, I've been locked up day and night
|
Have to find my way out, or I will go insane
|
Lust for light is leading me, flowing in my veins
|
|
At last I am free... what strange things to see
|
Marble slabs and columns staring at me
|
I'd better keep to the road this dark night
|
So I will not be led astray in my search for light"
|
|
Voice of fate:"Longing for light, you're to find death instead
|
Out from the dark into darkness you're led"
|
|
"Following the road to a castle in the night
|
People there are screaming, going insane with fright
|
What could it be there that scares them so
|
Well... I hope that I'll never know"
|
|
Waiting until day-time he sleeps beneath a tree
|
The wild animals avoid the thing they see
|
Not even the wolves of the forest dare come near
|
It wakes in them an arcane fear
|
|
Looking for water when he wakes up from his dreams
|
Thirsty and dirty he goes looking for a stream
|
Finding a river he sees his mirror image in it
|
The thing he sees, he knows it is himself
|
|
"This is too hard to live with", he cries in desperate tears
|
Recognizing the unearthly fear
|
Drowning himself is the only escape
|
There is no way to escape your fate
