Tell me brother, can you see? Yes, I can see. And then tell me, what do you see? I see the fire waves of a red flaming sea. Tell me brother, do you wish? Yes, I wish. And then tell me, what do you wish? I wish be blind, black dawns and gray eyes. Tell me brother, are you afraid? Yes, I am afraid. And then tell me, what are you afraid of? I'm afraid of the lady silver moon and of his pearly neonate son. Tell me brother, do you feel? Yes, I fiercely feel. And then tell me, what do you feel? I feel my black dense blood like tar and the smell of brimstone in my nostril when I kneel. Tell me brother, do you die? Yes, we all do it. So then brother, Am I dying? Yes, it is categorical, every breath is a second less, a moment left. Brother, I tell you that die is living.

Purgatory Lullaby
Tell me brother, can you see? Yes, I can see. And then tell me, what do you see? I see the fire waves of a red flaming sea. Tell me brother, do you wish? Yes, I wish. And then tell me, what do you wish? I wish be blind, black dawns and gray eyes. Tell me brother, are you afraid? Yes, I am afraid. And then tell me, what are you afraid of? I'm afraid of the lady silver moon and of his pearly neonate son. Tell me brother, do you feel? Yes, I fiercely feel. And then tell me, what do you feel? I feel my black dense blood like tar and the smell of brimstone in my nostril when I kneel. Tell me brother, do you die? Yes, we all do it. So then brother, Am I dying? Yes, it is categorical, every breath is a second less, a moment left. Brother, I tell you that die is living.
