Dark Delight - Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows

Hands folded in a prayer,

A rosary embedded in-between … -

Tonight I’ll join you in your sleep.

(… sleep brings no joy to me …)

I’ll bring you back to life this night,

It’s meant for the flesh at least … -

I’ll join you in your sleep.

(… sleep brings no joy to me …)

Come up, I hear your voice … — this is not me,

I’m not aware of what I’m doing.

I’ll shiver at the recollection,

When I’ll awake with the soil … on my hands.

I know, they will find you … fallen asleep again,

Between the mounds and crosses.

Tomorrow night it will be just the same … -

It will be just the same.

(… sleep brings no joy to me …)
