Deep in a dark crypt,
So far off in time,
Under the old slab I'll be,
All bitterly cover and bined,

Until that time that crypt,
And my dark tomb rest now,
As a future ghost yet to come,
Where uneasy people fall to the ground,

Until then a golden rose takes my place,
While it shall bloom and flourish,
So I shall live from the dark,
Until its petals shall fall,

I will wither and die in my tomb.

If your afraid of the dark, then why did you come?
