There he is, man in masque Human bird of prey Like the plague he elevates From the sewers of decay Sharpened claws, noble face Impeccable facade Merciless and grim The bird of prey
Fog and night, berlin square A demon in the street The czar of blood appears With a tongue so black and sweet Crooked smile, a butcher's knife A crying moon betrays Who is there to save you From the bird of prey?
A bed of roses and glass Winter months they pass I'm drowning like a little girl in may A sharp smell of cologne I'm dying here alone Is all this beauty just for me?
