HAVING LIVED THROUGH HALF OF MY LIFE,
I FOUND ME IN A GLOOMY WOOD
Having lived through half of my life
I found me in a gloomy wood
And when I wandered off the right path
I suddenly reached a mountain’s foot
The forest so rough set fear in my mind
The valley had pierced my heart with dread
Surrounded by beasts while climbing to the top
I saw a good man ahead
Having lived through half of my life
I found me in a gloomy wood
And when I wondered off the right path
I suddenly reached a mountain’s foot

DO COME BY
I won’t wait alone in the fire
Time goes by so slowly in the fire
Birds and bees don’t fly near the fire
Lay with me my love
Do come by, do come by...
You can fuel my thoughts and the fire
Black hearts burn like coal in the fire
Do come by, do come by...

NEVER RETURN
To the mount of light
To the mount of light you’d led your steps
The panther, wolf and lion
The panther, wolf and lion perched ahead
To the bowel of mine
To the bowel of mine, in time, you came
Leave all hope behind
Leave all hope behind who cross the gate
Lo so, lo so..... they never return
Andró, andró..... you might never return
To the city of woe
To the city of woe you pass through my mouth
Walk among the lost
Walk among the lost along the path
Through the bowel of mine
Through the bowel of mine the nine steps of hell
Leave all hope behind
Leave all hope behind who cross the gate

MY LOVE
Since you came, my love
I’ve been wanting to know you
Since you came, my love
I’ve been longing to show you
my love
I’ve been wanting to see you
my love
Since you came, my love
I’ve been meaning to tell you
Since you showed up my love
I’ve been longing to call you
my love
I’ve been planning to show you
my love
I’ve been dying to hold you
my love
Been longing to show you
my love, my love...

WOMAN
We rose out of blood and blood drips from our black eyes eyes, WOMAN
Our waists and temples with snakes and adders are bound bound, WOMAN
Vengeance and anger are objects of our old trade trade, WOMAN
On the circling walls we hide our bat wings and we wait, wait...
On your knees and bow your head to the fury of WOMAN
Count your sins and your blessings for the fury WOMAN
Till the very end we serve the lady of woe woe
We’ll punish anyone who will swear a false oath oath
On your knees and bow your head to the fury of WOMAN
Count your sins and your blessings for the fury WOMAN

APPLE TREE
Far away and long ago
You took my heart and took me whole
And when I crossed the river wide
You forgot my poor abandoned soul
Rest your mind
Cause nobody knows what you might find
Under this apple tree
Of evil and good – eternity
All things must pass, wither away
Yet you will live another day
You’re no rock, no plant, no animal
You come from the grace of the above
Rest your mind
Cause nobody knows what you might find
Under this apple tree
Of evil and good – eternity

Farewell, I'm Falling

FAREWELL, I’M FALLING
What lonely soul is this
Comes knocking on my door
I cannot open it
It’ll yearn forevermore
Hear me, I’m calling
Let me inside
I need your warmth
I need your light
What lonely soul is this
That haunts me in my sleep
I’m not afraid of it
I hide my treasures deep
Help me, I’m falling
Can’t you hear me call
He’ll rest my soul
Will he rest my soul
Farewell, I’m falling
Don’t hold my hand
I’ll pull you down
I’ll pull you down

SWEET HONEY PIE
Tututu....
There’s a soul in the body, Domine
Tututu....
What is ash will turn to ashes, Domine
Tututu....
Neath the sheltering sky, what can you hide?
Neath the all-seeing eye, where can you go?
The dark pit of your soul
Believe – or die
Sweet honey pie
There’s a soul in the body, Domine
Tututu...
Neath the sheltering sky, what can you hide...
Believe – or die
Sweet honey pie
