No need to bury me
Though I remember mistily
a period of time
a passage through some unconceivable world
No - hope - nore - desire

Back in this sephulchral place
Men : hurrying - filching - crouching
To gulp their unwholesome beer
To devour the infamous cookery
To dream insignificant and silly dreams
To fight the mere incidents on the surface
A sense of lugubrious drollery

Intrudors!
your knowledge of life
An irritating presence

Over the strained time-ridden faces
distraction from distraction by distraction
Filled with fancies, but empty of meaning
Tumid apathy with no concentration
Eructation of unhealthy souls

Phantom Asylum … no desire to enlighten them
Phantom Asylum … grinning bitterly to all

And you can see behind every face the mental emptiness deepen.
Leaving only the growing terror of nothing - nothing - nothing.

Phantom Asylum … no desire to enlighten them
Phantom Asylum … grinning bitterly to all

How could I ever had mankide at my side?
How could i stand these intrudors at my side?

I've taken the high seat
Amongst the devils of the land
How could you ever understand?
Stepping delicately into the holy terror of …

… scandals & gallows & lunatic asylums
Toiling slowly on the back of an incomprehensible frenzy

Cut from comprehension
Gliding past like phantoms wondering and secretly appaled
