Keep my breath mute as I walk into the hall I just hear the sound of my footsteps The abbey is cold and asleep, I hide behind a wall The way is clear to go to her bed
I am the monk, holier than a saint, Let your sins flowing down To my hallowed hands I have to roam in these dark empty rooms Looking for Mathilde And her far gone soul
Pityness for the weakness of the flesh I can see your tempting eyes As youre coming to my arms Emptyness, feeding remorse and distress Like a field of dying seeds I will sink you with my tears
Ecstatic emotions as I lay her to the ground I must be in heaven right now In her eyes I can see a red light burning me So she smiles like an insane child She throws me away to the cliff where I will die I will bleed my life in a slow agony
I am the monk, holier than a saint, Let your sins flowing down To my hallowed hands I have to roam in these dark empty rooms Looking for Mathilde And her far gone soul
