[Inspired by a short-story by H.P.Lovecraft (1890-1937)] "Climbing up the tower, I'm on my way to light Escaping from the castle, I've been locked up day and night Have to find my way out, or I will go insane Lust for light is leading me, flowing in my veins At last I am free... what strange things to see Marble slabs and columns staring at me I'd better keep to the road this dark night So I will not be led astray in my search for light" |
|
Voice of fate:"Longing for light, you're to find death instead Out from the dark into darkness you're led" "Following the road to a castle in the night People there are screaming, going insane with fright What could it be there that scares them so Well... I hope that I'll never know" |

Waiting until day-time he sleeps beneath a tree |
|
The wild animals avoid the thing they see |
|
Not even the wolves of the forest dare come near |
|
It wakes in them an arcane fear |
|
Looking for water when he wakes up from his dreams |
|
Thirsty and dirty he goes looking for a stream |
|
Finding a river he sees his mirror image in it |
|
The thing he sees, he knows it is himself "This is too hard to live with", he cries in desperate tears |
|
Recognizing the unearthly fear |
|
Drowning himself is the only escape |
|
There is no way to escape your fate |
