In my subterranean tower
it was "love" that has brought me here,
there are no numbers, but one and eleven,
and an uncertain feeling about the presence of three.

Built brick by brick and fear by fear
Oh, everything's inverted here.
These walls have eyes,
these vaults have ears and there's no hiding from the tears

I am dressed in the monster's skin,
"behold the cruellest mockery!":
erection,
fur and a cloak of shame my beauty is too disgusting
Oh please, don't look at me.
I am dressed in the monster's skin,

Built brick by brick and fear by fear
Oh, everything's inverted here.
These walls have eyes,
these vaults have ears and there's no hiding from the tears

Like Cronos I rigidly serve an illusion
I attempted to unman Uranus last night;
swallowing handfuls of my prophetic children,
in terror I'm fearing the passing of time.

Built brick by brick and fear by fear
Oh, everything's inverted here.
These walls have eyes,
these vaults have ears and there's no hiding from the tears

And in the silence that followed I learned to speak the secret language of denial and fear;
seemingly gentle for its absence of voices,
yet,
it's merely a shroud for a deafening scream.

Built brick by brick and fear by fear
Oh, everything's inverted here.
These walls have eyes,
these vaults have ears and there's no hiding from the tears
