A Place Called Earth

A demon is like a snake, as gentle as a dove, Or angels making love I follow the footsteps across the desert To come toward the town of the unbelieving Through the streets I walk, seeing children Shouting and dancing like friends I enter a tavern to fulfill my thirst A blind man serves me some wine and bread After feasting I ask the blind man for the time He only answers “No one knows the day or hour” I know this is no normal man, but an angel He tells me to head east and read the stars I follow the road long and narrow The stars tell me that I will reach the place of my birth Now I must rest for my spirit is weak Not long afterwards I walk through Fields of Black Sabbath as well as ravish The corn the grows there The place feels familiar, this is the place Of my childhood, I head towards my home But no one is there, only death is there I see the stairway to heaven Behind me is hell, now I see Heaven and Hell, Angels and Wolves Evil and good, this is like a curse Now I’m born on a place called earth.
