They walk among us, do you know?
For too long they’ve made you flow
and when they got bored to hell,
they’ve dragged you down; bid farewell.
What else are you ready to learn?
Truly, they are not going to return
to enlighten you of the ugly truth
and deprive you of your blooming youth.
What, are you frightened again this night?
Then don’t turn out the light;
Don’t search for proof
to reveal
the terrifying truth.
Gods and monsters – all the same –
they don’t shy away from their fame.
They both make you fear the divine;
both make you pray a lifetime.
