I slept amongst the dead, ate the flesh of dogs and black leavened bread
I pronounce the three unclean names carved in bone, to consult this mantic head Sorcery as a divinatory tool, to find that stone all philosophers seek
A black shadow ascends, possessing its vessel and so the skull begins to speak
Conjuration

For I shall live forever, yet all I want is to die
Forever in decay, my flesh rots away

“Here we go back to Dippel and his laboratory, in his pursuit of the elixir of life. The skull with a forked tongue was like his way of interacting with the dead. In the song he talks about how he tries to get information from the skull to make his elixir of life. And in the end—in the song, anyway—...
