As the Nightside called for my Name
From the Land of Snow and Ice
For the Spirits are dancing with me
At the Path to the Unlight
I will never again see the Light
That has once cursed my mortal Soul
Great black Goddess I'm searching
For you to fulfil your Soul with mine
I have heard your Call in the Night
As I was standing about to fall
I have felt your Hand touching me
As I was falling so silently
Like a drunken Angel I fly
And my Eyes are burning bright
Towards the Land of Snow and Ice
Where all dead Angels lie

For this Night I've waited long
When I take your golden Crown
The Dust will take my flesh away
But I remain in Clouds of Dust
Towards the Unlight I will rise
Where only Dust and Darkness lies
Where my Soul will reign in Blood
And the Demons praise my Soul

I'm falling into a Shade of Grey
That carries my dying Soul away
Silently the Wind embraces me
And kisses me in Shades of Grey
Frozen Rivers all around
And the Forest grasps for me again

She kissed my Neck
And sipped my Blood
Touched me tenderly as I felt
Immortal I remain with her
No Light shall ever reach my Eye
The Night became a Part of me
Secret Voices call for me
Whispering Shadows carry me
Night's Embrace will make me free

Im dunklen Samt der Nacht
Wenn alles fort schl¤ft und ruht
Durch Begierde vom Schlaf erwacht
Zu suchen nach frischem Blut
Dein Kærper blaŸ im Mondschein gl¤nzt
Mein Sein gepr¤gt von Dunkelheit
Dein Blut ist fìr mich wie Wein
Z¤rtlich der KuŸ zur Ewigkeit

The Shine of the Moon
So clear and bright
The Snow on my Hands
The Frost in my Heart
This never ending Flame in me
Like a Dagger that carves in my Flesh
A Symphony composed by the Wind
How sweet does it sound
What am I now

A Dream of endless Silence
Of Life that will fall down to Dust
A Dream of endless Darkness
A Dream where I kiss the Unlight
A Dream of dancing Shadows
Of Shadows that carry my Soul
A Dream of endless Frost
Of Frost that will grasp for my Soul

I hear the Shadows scream
Calling for my Soul
They will ride with me
On the Wings of Damnation
Together with my Goddess
We're restless in the Woods
Screaming with the Shadows
Who are fading all away
And as the Sun arose
Above the snow-covered Hills
I was staring at my Queen
I will kiss her the last Time
To Dust we will fall
Together we are now
Ashes to Ashes
And Dust to Dust

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
