The Hungry Abyss
Embrace of the Phantom World
Lyrics
The lonely night stares out with hungry eyes
The night, personified as lonely, seems eagerly attentive and longing.
The lonely night hears all
The night is capable of perceiving everything, including your fears and cries.
Your fears and cries
It listens and acknowledges the fears and cries within you.
The Phantom World is here and is now
A parallel existence or alternate reality, described as the "Phantom World," is present in the current moment.
The Phantom World hat enwrapped
This alternate reality has surrounded and enveloped you completely, much like a shroud.
You like a shroud
Angels of Darkness, Angels of Light
There are contrasting forces at play: Angels of Darkness and Angels of Light.
Born of your craving, born of the night
These opposing forces have their origins in your desires and the darkness of the night.
A lover comes on the ether of a dream
A lover arrives through the intangible realm of dreams.
A lover comes to take you as you sleep
This lover seeks to claim you while you are in a state of slumber.
The trembling kiss will feed
The kiss from this lover in the dream world sustains your starved soul.
Your starving soul
It provides nourishment to your deprived inner being.
The trembling kiss will free
This kiss also offers liberation from emotional coldness.
You from the cold
It brings relief from feelings of isolation or detachment.
The ghostly touch is a touch to much
The ghostly touch, while comforting, might be overwhelming or excessive.
The ghostly touch and yourself
This touch and your own instincts may not be trustworthy.
You cannot trust
There's a warning about the unreliability of the ghostly touch and self-perception.
Beautiful demons, irresistible nightmares
Beautiful yet dangerous demons and irresistible nightmares are depicted.
Monsters magnificent, born of the night
These monstrous entities are splendid and emerge from the darkness of the night.
The Abyss is staring back
The Abyss, representing a profound emptiness or unknown, is gazing back at you.
