Requiem of the Music Angel
I dwell in solemn shadows
In the darkness down below
Five below your world of glamour
Five below your golden glow
In the tunnels long and winding
Where no others dare to go –
And my face you'll never know;
And my face you'll never know.
-
I can see you from my kingdom
Your sweet voice I clearly hear,
And I hear your blackest sorrows
And I hear your darkest fears.
You stand alone, and now I hear and
See you coming near –
For I dwell beyond the mirror;
For I dwell beyond the mirror.
-
I will take you through this darkness
And into my inner soul:
Past the shadows, dark and silent
Past the deep and murky shoal
Where joy and tears both mingle in
My heart, the empty bowl –
And my love consumes me whole;
And my love consumes me whole.
-
You asked to see too much of me,
And now you've gone too deep!
You now know where the ugliness
In my own heart does sleep!
You know the demon secret that
Your grotesque angel keeps –
And at my dark lyre, I weep;
And at my dark lyre, I weep.
