[Verse 1]
Our beating hearts drive us down
Down to the deepest foundation of life
In nature's womb, creation's ground in chaos
Where the secret key of the all lies concealed

[Chorus]
Blessed darkness
Shadow of earth
Lost and abandoned
By our time
Your secret ground
Your sacred ground
Ever reaching down

[Verse 2]
What is secretly perceived is made clear
My hand is but a tool of another farther located sphere
The chthonic spirit's wailing beckons from the other side
From the bridge of dark somber realms to the world of man

[Chorus]
Blessed darkness
Shadow of earth
Lost and abandoned
By our time
Your secret ground
Your sacred ground
Ever reaching down
Down, ever down

Deep within the labyrinth
In forgotten tombs they lie
Glistening in radiant splendor they cry
Far below the world of man
