Christmas tree in the devil's house

"There are too many walls in this room,

the room, in the house, the house on the hill.

Bright shadows on the wooden floor,

silence, steps on the stairs , chains in the night.

Now from here, the light on the window seems stronger,

even the sky has stars that begin to dance,

now from here the cold seems to come with the wind,

trees and light… Christmas tree on the devil’s house.

 

Soup on the fire and music from another world,

there’s a violin on the table and the smell of tobacco.

Black and white photos of unknown faces,

silence, steps on the roof, dust on the shoes.

Now from here, the light on the window seems stronger,

even the sky has stars that begin to dance,

now from here the cold seems to come with the wind,

trees and light… Christmas tree on the devil’s house.

 

The vampires roam in the night,

they have dreams made of silver in their pockets.

Dark mantles and desolate street eyes,

for the whole life raisin’ our head we’ll see Manster house.

Now from here, the light on the window seems stronger,

even the sky has stars that begin to dance,

now from here the cold seems to come with the wind,

trees and light… Christmas tree on the devil’s house.

 

We live by dreams and in the dreams nightmares grow,

like frozen leaves on the driveway.

Like wild tales of summer evenings ,

your room is still too far away in this corridor.

Now from here, the light on the window seems stronger,

even the sky has stars that begin to dance,

now from here the cold seems to come with the wind,

trees and light… Christmas tree on the devil’s house.
