Algol Lyrics
shifts from day to day - rises, abates, intesifiesagain, sometimes triumphant and sparkling,sometimes pale and faint. For a long timewe've searched with wonder for the keyto this mystery, the right element toyour eager and changing, queer temperament.Now we've dispearsed the haze of the riddle:you've got a companion on your journey,like a slave, a faithful shadow heconstantly follows you on the desolatepath, he circles and sneaks quiet around you, closely.Never have we seen his guise, dark, parches,stiff and cold, but still we know he exists;like ashamed he hides behind you - freeand merry you shine - until he onceagain crawls out of the darkness andcovers you. And your glare becomespallid and dull, and your mind cloudy.Now we've dispearsed the haze of the riddle:you've got a companion on your journey,like a slave, a faithful shadow heconstantly follows you on the desolatepath, he circles and sneaks quiet around you, closely.And similars there are - many Algolswanders in the space - maybe evenmore among us on earth. Sunlight spiritsdarkened by a shadow, young princesconcealed by old slaves, doublesouls,divided creatures - a blissful son of thelight indissolubely linked with a bitter dark demon.Now we've dispearsed the haze of the riddle:you've got a companion on your journey,like a slave, a faithful shadow heconstantly follows you on the desolatepath, he circles and sneaks quiet around you, closely.
