Say farewell to a fading beam This leaden mist has frozen still The spectre's petrified into gloomy haze Shrouding mystery that you revolt against An end to your dreams of absolute power Only spellbound stupor in the waking hour Those opiate vapours of oblivion you inhale Hush your dazed conscience wearing it away
My memory thrown down into the abyss All my secrets entrusted into your clenched fists My curiosity dazed with this mesmerizing glitter When the pillars of cognition succumb and wither
Your soul aroused by a sudden flare Or is it wind howling out in the air? Is there someone still crying and calling my name? Or is it rain sobbing, moaning out in the gale? Is this just an illusion or can I really hear This nocturnal howling of sinister wail Can I see shadows dancing in the moonlight rays Or are these pale figures swarming in mortal embrace?
