Light Damage - The Supper Of Cyprianus Lyrics

What follows was written before. An eccentric supper.

Speechless prose. A dream or a vision, if you wish.

Another reality, madness & illusion.

He fights against the cold. In his torpor,

He dreams of a dream.

A narrow staircase leads him towards

a crypt which looks like a kitchen.

Where the deaf and continuous noise of pans makes this place a hell.

Animals run & shoot towards him the entrance to a room prepared for a feast.

"You, Enter! You are our guest!" shouts the Host standing

in the center of the room. Next to him, people drink fine wine.

A procession of young maidens enters accompanied by strange music.

And one girl catches his attention: "Wow, she looks like an angel."

As part of this attractive show, the Host breaks a big mirror.

The scrap glass is then transformed into colored clothes.

The Guests get dressed and begin to be fed.

All drunk & satisfied, they enjoy this good moment.

Suddenly the Host becomes angry. He was badly served.

Just like that, all bustle to offer him treasures.

"Daylight robbery!" He shouts. All are searched & found

upon each of the guests stolen precious objects.

On the girl, they find a black cat.

All consider her like a witch,

and shouted: "It's necessary to punish her!"

She's then grazed, struck, flogged, knifed, and burned.

There's no more than screams, death & destruction.

And just like that, the feast and treasures disappear.

The supper was transformed into the massacre of the girl.

We do not see her face, anymore. Her remains are lying there.

A torn and lifeless dead body. And people cackle at this purification.

At the bottom of the crypt, a madman screamed and everything changed.

The atmosphere takes on the crimson hue of the inside of a big sticky stomach.

Flames of the hell in the center, this scene doesn't frighten him.

He can see the guests who rave and discuss as if nothing happened.

We know everything and we ain't afraid of anything.

In a warm light thrown by flames.

Everything began once more among them

The Girl become again an angel.

Who says to him: "It's nothing, would they start again,

I shall return then even more beautiful than before.

Leave me another moment here my love

and we shall meet ourselves there..."

At this moment, he wakes up.
