Erotic and dreamlike still in its mortal disguise
|
A passionate ritual in the ruined garden theatre
|
The painted angels - shadowed high above
|
Once they gathered to worship at the picture of me
|
Like a whisper where there are no words
|
Appears the perplexed - the statue of might
|
In the cradle of the next generation
|
A spiraling ruin - lost in the gathering dust
|
|
...The faces you saw in the withering garden
|
I witnessed the flikkering - made to look like stone
|
Quivering like little figures lost in broken flames
|
Never to forget again the names carved in horrid flesh
|
|
Those words drawn in water - become our legacy of fantasies
|
|
Burn the pictures
|
So unexpected in this strange deserted place
|
Once opened its secrets would become the world
|
Its attributes would continue to unfold forever
|
|
"Through the fabric of the promised future aeons
|
I offer this suffering of my unwanted father..."
|
|
...And the stars did wander - separated in the forbidden universe
|
