Birds Of Prey

The tap-tapping of your fingers

Encrusted with blood

We shall never be apart

The pitchfork and the cloven hoof

The fiddler's dancing on the roof

Oh, my soul and all that is within me

Send your prayers

Recite the rosary

Tell the birds and the beasts of prey

How to seduce

How to betray

The flowers, the serpents

The gods of the netherworld

The mad biter, the pied piper

The pale priest of the mute people

Let me awake to life immortal

After all that was

Has ceased to be

Has ceased to breathe

Tell the birds and the beasts of prey

How to seduce

How to betray
