Remain in silence or death arrives At strange doors we are now Quiet in tranquillity or everything breaks The bow is strung up No stepping forward no stepping back Better to remain transfixed Balanced in calmness Lest one twig shall crack A brimful chalice Just one drop more And everything cascades Benighted stillness Elusive daylight Escape in masquerade A brimful chalice Just one drop more And everything cascades Benighted stillness Elusive daylight It's our twilight Devoid of strength It is lingering No voice no words One move to deceive the haven God-forsaken without lucky stars Soon to breathe but not yet In silence to endure this Or our twilight
