'My eyes are so dark,
the visions are black, too
Black as the night;
The twilight state of man
is my time of existence1.'
'I am so alone;
Solitude for eternity -
Thoughts just to myself
I whisper to the shadow-
I dance with the shadow-
I wander in solitude,
I crave the blood: Dance of death.'
'To welcome the deadly kiss;
Follow the darkness into nothingness! -
Sweet nectar on your lips;
A trickle of life damp with blood,
I lick the love from your face,
I lick the hate from your face.'
'Such an inebriating sensation:
To taste my bitter existence!'
'Surrender yourself to me!
I was consumed by grief,
I was so inconsolable,
but you have sparked love...'
'Nonetheless you hide your eyes
A glow of light behind the darkness
A light that showed me
that you are imbued with fear.
Tell me please
why you bear this fear within you?!'
'Don't dance with the shadow anymore,
Please don't dance on the grave;
Dance with me the Lucifer's Waltz.
I long to be your bride
- to turn into gloominess.'
'For ever and eternally:
A spiritual caretaker of yours I am.'
'Let me welcome your kiss:
the self-destructive kiss...'
'... until I die, hold me,
and I will resurrect...
I love you...'
