Lyrics

Inspired by E. A. Poe Dear child, are you scared tonight? Your body is trembling Dear child, you are a tragic bride With a blemished mind Dear soul, I will take you To the very ends of the earth Dear soul I will break you The marble BREED is mine "Out - out are the lights - out all! And over each quivering form The curtain, a funeral pall Comes down with the rush of a storm, ..." Dear worm, are you strong enough? I will defy you Dear worm, I will rise up high From the glowing embers "...And the angels, all pallid and wan Uprising, unveiling, affirm That the play is the tragedy, "Man" And its hero the conqueror Worm"
