Far across the water, far across the sea, magician among the spirits, the next delivery

And the scene is set up, the boy who lost his mind, a sudden smell of ether as machines unwind 

Universe of distant stars chilling in its failings

With planets spinning deep in space parading all its flavours

We sit and stare into the night and contemplate forever

Slip away into your dreams, conclude that we may never 



Out and past the harbour where the sharks dream (stream ?) in the waves

Magician among the spirits is drowning in a cave

As Solomon's my witness, as Gabriel is my guard (god ?)

Garden of the lovely ones in the devil's back yard (?) 



Hand of God sprinkle jewels inside the velvet ceiling

Filling up our unsure hearts with wonder, awe and feeling

All the eyes are staring down and glitter like small children

Their secrets kept, lost in thought, looking at what fueled them 



Singing 'bout the old times, sepia and faded

Magician among the spirits the past has been invaded

Robert Houdini in the distance, we look up through the water

See the comet's silver trail, see the planets falter





Vast science, eternal night shrouded in dark mazes

Runes and tunes preconceived flowing through their phases

Your air or cover (??) wind is dead, consequences endless

Speed of light and empty time your borders to defenders (?) 



(Marty's evil chuckle) 



Walking in the wilderness with my pale sister

Magician among the spirits I said how much I miss her

Jackson on the slipstream, he's moving all around

Chasing tiny orphans, following the sounds, following the sounds 



Fragile and delirious, cannot understand it 

Magician among the spirits, Electra and Miranda

Passed you in a corridor you were drinking Grenadine

Drinking liquid happiness your tears could not be seen, tears could not be seen 



Violent sun propels its rays to seek out beings breathing

Ancient craft that waltz the maze of metal shells beneath me

And dust that swirls, of reddened clouds, floats above the surface

Deserted landscape slips away, forgotten secret purpose





Thin film of moisture, condensing on the screen

Magician among the spirits are you with us, Christine ? Do you really remember the boy I used to be ?

With you every single night in February 



All this ectoplasm believe in ghosts (?)

Magician among the spirits, Lord of hosts

Here we are tonight we're speaking to the light (?)

Magician among the spirits, make it alright (repeat.)





(Translated from Swedish by Thomas Norin)

"Magician!, magician!, my star!

From where on earth do you look out, into outer space!

I am in a forest heather!

You shall not find me again!

Farewell my daughters, I'll see you soon!"
