Stanotte nel sonno i suoi corvi sono venuti da me
Li ho visti - dormivo - il suo volto era sulle ali
'La mente raccoglie il suicida, lo spirito il morto'
Ma io non volevo morire nè uccidermi - e ho sospirato
Ho preso il cammino del fuoco e bruciavo nel cuore
La fiamma dell'impiccato lambiva l'ucciso
Dell'ultima lacrima era impregnata la corda
Nel mezzo vivevo - di volontà
Scorsi la via
Non c'era altra via

Last night in my dreams his ravens came to me
I saw them - I was asleep - his face was on the wings
'The mind gathers the suicide, the spirit the dead'
But I did not want to die or kill myself - and I sighed
I walked the path of the fire and my heart was burning
The flame licked the hanged man
The last tear impregnated the rope
I lived in the middle - by will
