DIES IRAE, DIES ILLA
SOLVET SAECLUM IN FAVILLA
TESTE DAVID CUM SYBILLA

Gothic is that enormous portal
That leads to the grey wide hall
The masterwork of dark art
So holy to have...

Fear of heavens carved in a wild frame
So attractive, drug for my brain in awe
Rex tremendae majestatis
Cum salvando salvas gratis
Pains of ancient, genial talent

And I feel all around
This wonderful sound
Of my divine abstraction
Stendhal old vision
Paint my new syndrome
Sacred hidden truth
Dies irae, dies illa
Solvet saeclum in favilla

Angels and perfect straight lines
Gargoyles protecting from old evil
Now trapped in naked marble
That rides from crypts to...

Fear of heavens carved in a wild frame
So attractive, drug for my brain in awe
Rex tremendae majestatis
Cum salvando salvas gratis
