"Narrow, narrow, down is the machine river,

By its side, the inner west, where the ruins are

An ocean forsaken by time

Better, better, down, down toward the machine river

By the inner west, no heavens there are

Where no peaks there are.

Around the ocean, where the naked noose stalks,

The shadows of the seas below and above,

stays untrue the routes are,

for every sailor, for every poor soul,

grave, grave that Labyrinth.

But beyond her gallow seas and walled off-cliffs,

lies, it, the Forsaken Ocean.

Better, Better,

Go, go, down, down

The Machine River,

Upward and Downward,

The Gallow Ways, you are already there

North or where ever you go

Lights and shadows

Humanity and Monstrosity

Already, passed you by

Your naked noose

A warm reminder

To your haunted gaze of generations

By the inner west, Forsaken by her, no one shall see you by the Ocean

Forever lost in death, lost by time, lost ever your return".
