Come with me into the underworld
Do not be scared of the dark
For it gives peace unimaginable

Come with me into the love of death
Let your heart not spill from your eyes
For until then will you be worthy of life

Let your nails sink and grow into my skin
Let our blood be a bond of eternity
Let your sweet breath sink into my nostrils

Open your eyes and look into mine
Listen to the silence from my ears
Let my veins resonate with your heartbeat
Speak through my mouth and bite my lips

Let our eerie love
Plant a dripping tree
With branches of body parts
And fallen leaves of organs

Our hearts will beat as one
Through the wet roots
And we will forever live
As sacred love.
