In the theatre of somn I fall asleep And the nocturnal play begins It's an act of the burlesque Restored from deep within In the muffled red light of the spots A shade of the aerialist She's dancing at the string And the ballet-broads they sing Go deeper, go deeper into the dream Come closer, come see what is left unseen Go further, your wicked thoughts are dwelling over here Go deeper, go deep in subvisual sleep The play proceeds beneath the dust And the roam begins to spin It's an act of the grotesque In the theatre of sin In the blinding blue lights of the spots A disfigured face of death He is beating at the string And the ghastly choir sing Go deeper, go deeper into the dream Come closer, come see what is left unseen Go further, your wicked thoughts are dwelling over here Go deeper, go deep in subvisual sleep
