"Still falls the rain,the veils of darkness shroud the blackened trees,which, contorted by some unseen violence,shed their tired leaves,and bend their boughs toward a gray earth of severed bird wings.
Among the grasses, poppies bleed before a gesticulating death,and young rabbits, born dead in traps,stand motionless,as though guarding the silence that surrounds and threatens to engulfall those that would listen.
Mute birds, tired of repeating yesterdaysterrors,huddle together in the recesses of dark corners, heads turned from the dead, black swanthat floats upturned in a small pool in the hollow.
There emerges from this pool a faint,sensual mist,that tracesits way upwards to caress the feet of the headless martyr's statuewhose only achievement was to die too soon,and who couldn't wait to loose.
The cataract of darkness forms fully,the long black night begins,yet still by the lake a young girl waits.
Unseeing she believes herself unseen,she smiles faintly at the distant tolling bell, and the still falling rain."
Black Sabbath sono un gruppo musicale britannico considerato uno dei pionieri del heavy metal. Fondato a Birmingham nel 1968, il gruppo ha rivoluzionato la musica rock con sonorità pesanti, riff distorti e testi spesso oscuri e apocalittici. I membri fondatori erano Ozzy Osbourne (voce), Tony Iommi (chitarra), Geezer Butler (basso) e Bill Ward (batteria). Paranoid (1970) è considerato uno dei loro album più influenti, con brani come "Iron Man", "War Pigs" e il titolo "Paranoid". Black Sabbath hanno avuto un impatto enorme sulla musica moderna, ispirando generazioni di artisti heavy metal.
