I think the song talks about a weary traveller who wandered into an abandoned old church during nightfall. He falls asleep, and then has a nightmare about being seduced by the evil spirit of a woman (succubus?).. he has sex with her ("storm of passion, bathed me in sin") and comes close to having his soul enslaved by this spirit. The mesmerizing and haunting bridge with the woman-like singing portrays this part.. when the protagonist screams "NO!", he awakens from this nightmare to find that daylight had come, and discovers that he fell asleep on the woman's grave.
An eerie and awesome song from Symphony X, one of my favorites.
