Sandy Cliffs 09:42
I saw him there on the sandy cliffs, where the pines talk to the stones in the sea. He told me, my time has come, but I didn't believe it. What did I ever believe? Did I ever believe? I crossed the seven seas but was blind. I reached the edge of the world but was blind. The victory taste on my lips was so bright, but silence reigned, and I'm still here and still blind. The holy fool wheezed "It's coming, it's real". Then he swallowed the cross. And in the flagellants groans, in the torturers songs, in the clang of the steel, I heard the sound that I lost. But when the silence reigned I was blind.

They howl lullabies, I swear. If they howl lullabies ― beware. They come inside and stare. If they come inside ― beware. They howl lullabies, I swear. If they howl lullabies ― beware. The swaddled child they bear… if they swaddle the child ― beware. They howl lullabies, I swear. If they howl lullabies, I’ll be there. The desire of their arms is so fair. I’m the numb, swaddled child they bear.

Oh, my lovely son... Now it's time to get ready for the road. I will take your burden on my back. And you will pass this way with your big heart, with your courage and love. When people ask you how you do it, just keep quiet, cause the reticence is a sign of dignity. Оh, my son, I saw a dream where all the answers were. I woke up screaming, and couldn't stop the tears. But sweet redemption was in those flames. Death was there, but also grace. Oh, my son, my sorrow. Be ready for the greatest act in life. Behold His mercy, fear and tremble! But remember ― any power is divine. My son, my seed, my glory and my pride. My son, my son, it’s time to prove your love. How come, Father? You’re so proud and fragile. Who disfigured you so? Wash your hands before you go home...before your long way home.
