For know that my life resides not in me but far far away
For I am body without soul
My soul I have hidden only to be found by he who shall possess me
Bring it to me, do not leave me alone in the forest
Find the last link in the magic chain by which my life is darkly bound
Bring me the casket, the serpent, the soul of the Swan
Woman and all that can never never be ...
In the ocean there is an island
On the island grows an oak
Beneath the oak lies a casket
In the casket are seven birds
Seven birds sing away sweetly
Not for long
Cut off their pretty heads and I am yours
I pray you, will you come for me?
I pray you, won't you set me free?
In the forest there is a lake
In the lake lives a serpent
Inside the serpent there is a swan
And in the swan there is an egg
In the egg my heart lies
Now slowly squeeze
And as you break the shell the spell is broken
I pray you, will you come for me?
I pray you, won't you set me free?
