Sleeping, demonized I lay Laughing and talking with skeletons, While two courtesans play with the fate of mankind… Lady fortune, who never gives a smile; Lady d**h, whose smile nobody dares to see. I've traveled in the shoulders of giants, Reflecting of past and future days, Calling nameless ghosts to lead me In this journey across the abyss. I follow the path of darkness' spirits To see the seven gates of the underworld Through the dream of the secret reason.
Awaiting, possessed, I see Falling and dying thy messengers Whose wings of light will never fly again And the horned gods of Babylon rise At the time of my infinite trip. I've signed covenants of mortals, I've felt the hellish breeze From that place where martyrs live, Among the purgatory's defleshed souls; Ethereal witches pay the price And the bargeman took the course Through the dream of the secret reason
