The lonely rose keeps on crying in my hands,

The hands that transformed all life into oblivion...

The lonely tear slides down my cheek, 

The tear of a being that is rotten though still living on...



Feared once was I to lose my path

Below the source of post-earthly darkness

Feared once was I find the light 

Deep beneath the blackest caverns of disgust



To reach my goal and find the way...

To attain the universal supremacy - 

The one concealed inside my mind...

To start my journey at it's end



I cast aside my senses, those I will never feel...

Sensations that were mine

Leave me be and stray away

The love I've never felt, the hate I usually beheld...



Don't look upon me as I'm the leper man,

Turn away and don't cast a glance at me

... my precious demon of delight, imprisoned in my hellish den...

Don't pare my wings, for how then will I float above the nightly shores?



I rise above and dive below, 

I crawl beneath and creep within.

I am the servant to the masters and emperor of bleeding sheep,

I am the one who is, and who is not.



Enshrouded with gloom becomes the luminary, 

I unite with the one it was conquered by -

The eclipse glowing in the utter grimness of the dusk

Although it fades away so fast I could only tearlessly sigh...
