I raise the chalice high   cursing god, and his crucified son   I drink to ease the pain, to forget your acrid treachery   the beauty you took from me, to decay into eternal sleep   I drink the blood from thee   oh graceful bride below the deep   In silence, I can hear you calling me   In silence, within the heart of despair   In silence, from a distant dream, I can hear you scream   Am I the one to set you free?     Usurper of dreams, of blight and disease   undivulged in a world of desires   Let me fall from this earth, for a dismal rebirth   in the land of the countless departed.     My love, I crave for thee   let me join you in your direful dreams   I leave the diurnal light   to grope trough the domains of eternal night     Wanderers of dark, let me sour through the gates   let me perish among these immortals     World of dreams, open your arms   let me perish among these immortals     Usurper of dreams, of blight and disease   undivulged in a world of desires   Let me fall from this earth, for a dismal rebirth   in the land of the countless departed.   In sparking art of shimmer   my gaudy bride appears     She sails in darkly beauty, pure she greets my eyes   approaches me like an angel, beyond all life she flies     She takes my hand and whisper, this life is not for thee   Good-bye my sweet beloved, we weren't meant to be     World of dreams, open your arms   let me perish among these immortals.     From flames of darkness, I can feel my mistress beckon   In dismal drams incarnate, in a distant world of disillusions     A memory of passion, remains within my heart   I am to die now, to join you on the infinite path   Oh sceptred mistress, from dreams of passion spawned   My queen of beauty, through darkness we will walk.
