midway into the dark
straight forward pathway had been lost
i thought i had to find the cipher
of dante's comedy divine
else do i have to say -speak will i of the other things
this way to paradise is paved
with my monsters and stoned with their cries
finally come to an end
over and over and over -
over and over againthis is the day we've hailed for such a long time
death in venice so sweet -
sweet as the end
once i was hunting for athanasia
with a grim sardonic endin circle 9 there's a stairway to light
my son is the key to eternal salvation
here it starts and here it ends
over and over and over -
over and over againthis is the day we've hailed for such a long time
death in venice so sweet -
sweet as the end
precious allegories of a death in venice
where the gondolas float bejeweled -
dressed in mourningthis is the day we've hailed for such a long time
death in venice so sweet -
sweet as the end
this is the day we've hailed for such a long time
death in venice so sweet -
sweet as the end
