1. Stigmata
2. Shadowplay
Dancing figures of smoke and light
The jester’s sardonic parade
Mannequin puppet your limping waltz
On my bedroom wall
Keep pretending, keep performing
The dreamer must stay awake
Shapeless riddles told by pompous rogues
Pantomime preachers present
Empty eyes staring, sunken eyes glaring
Drowned in a moment of truth
Hourglass ticking, a childs fingerlicking
Jigsaw puzzles and clay
Silhouettoes and gepettoes circling the face of my world
You point your finger, I break each and one
A handfull of reasons are gone
‘Cause you’re nothing
But a shadowplay
I am all
No longer astray
And I’m sick n’ tired of you
So get out my house
So get out my life
So get out of my head
So get out of the way
Taciturned teasers with tattooed tears
A play of shadows they give
A blindfolded sejour from Shakespeare to Marx
Directions vague and obscene
Comedies and tragedies
Spastic laughter I sense
A room, a scene, a private playground
The front-row ticket I’ve got
‘Cause you’re nothing
But a shadowplay
I am all
No longer astray
And I’m sick n’ tired of you
‘Cause you’re nothing, nothing
But a shadowplay
I am all
No longer astray
3. Nameless
These massive stones so nameless
Bereaving and relentless
Their silence is shrouded in darkness
Impenetrable
A beacon to extinct stars
From Isis to Cernunnos
Unattainable recesses
Speak to me
You gave me a goat I could fuck
But where are you now?
I don’t know
Untouched and so gigantic
In sleep, but yet still frantic
Impetious silent relics
What is time?
Symbolic soul frustration
Immortall stone formation
These fragments of stagnation
Resistent
You gave me a soul I could kill
But where are you now?
I don’t know
Monument of existance
A tomb on walking distance
Old idols of persitance
Deaf an ddumb
Their will is cold and faceless
No world were told be grey shapes
The truth is always godless
Immutable blind
You gave me a reason to die
But where are you now?
I don’t know
4. Abstrakt Algebra
In a place called the Ozone
The two rooms divided, I was never there
Are the vectors depending?
Release the suite, meet the hyperplane
Longitude and latitude, may the two never meet
Make a circle complete with a line square and neat
A bizzare way of cancellation, integrated transmutation
The missing equation, the sixth eklination
Abstrkt Algebra
Abstrakt Algebra
Sictor virus protection
The logical factor, the basis of greek
Plus and minus, they equal
Two plus two, but sometimes they freak
Digital and analog, a note inside the captain’s log
Arithmetic, mathematic, same old form but assymetric
Elemental misery, transcendental elegy
A maze of the mind and the code I can’t find
Abstrakt Algebra
Abstrakt Algebra
Enter password rejection
Synopsis infection, carbonized seed
Biological breakdown
I breathe in the vacuum like a fish in the sea
Digital and analog, a note inside the captain’s log
Arithmetic, mathematic, same old form but assymetric
Elemental misery, transcendental elegy
A maze of the mind and the code I can’t find

5. Bitterroot
El jefe, humanitary god
Erazor, subtle nature love
Zodiac bloodmate, extends the pleasure of pain
Spit out then chew, fly ugly fly fly
Delirium, aphrodisiac trash
Inner sanctum, oh mandrake man
Revolution, anarchy in the cell
Beggars day mission, pride and passion play
Blackhearted poison in the Bacchus canal
The bitter root
O varg e veum, I dined and I choked on
The bitter root
Yeah, I tasted
The bitter root
Concise and focused
Exit, red light
Deranged hocus pocus with all
The crystalized virus intact
This chemical error
Computerized death
Will amplify and sustain
The fragile karma that’s left
Yeah, I tasted
The bitter root, yeah
6. April Clouds
I died again this morning
In a womb as grey as rain
No solice, no pity
I grasp the abyss of pain
In blood I pain
To release from this shell of dirt
Mortal expressions, vivid but so faint
Strokes forbidding, black and frail
Early April first dead light
Witness my thoughts
Words I don’t know before
The meaning you cuold not understand
I am old as damn Methuselah
Bitter, worn and cold
A life-time I lived this day
Birth, love, then decay
Years of ice were melt away
In a single warm caress
But innocence was never meant to stay
Now nothing remains but the grave
I am not afraid of dying
I will melt in the soil
Unite with my maker
Escape this flogged coil (free at last)
You showed me that rusty dagger
And carved out my heart
But a painful death can’t frighten me more
Than a single word of love
Everything’s hollow
And sorrow wil follow
‘Cause I am
The oldest of them all
7. Vanishing Man
A man among others, a face in the crowd
Whose feet you step on, whose name you don’t know
Shifting in the neverending scale of grey
Silent and discreet, an empty sheet
The picture of conformity, a man without identity
Who pulls his straw to the corporated stack
Nothing more beneath the surface
Than a name, address and serial number
A grain of sand
In a clenched hand
You’re the vanishing man
Spineless and damned
Suppressing what you can
You’re the vanishing man
Slow and slow and round and round
The wheels keep turning without a sound
Grinding, grinding soulless stew
You’re sucked into a mechanical screw
A grain of sand
In a clenched hand
You’re the vanishing man
Spineless and damned
Suppressing what you can
You’re the vanishing man
Your mouth is closed, your eyes are shut
You can’t raise your voice ‘cause your throat’s been cut
Shrinking, shrinking, vanishing man
You won’t make the way to the promised land
A grain of sand
In a clenched hand
You’re the vanishing man
Spineless and damned
Suppressing what you can
You’re the vanishing man
Refuse to understand
You’re the perfect part of a plan
You’re the vanishing man
A grain of sand
In a clenched hand
Spineless and damned
Suppressing what you can
8. Who What Where When
Stormcloud intrution, warning you by-passed the system
Stretched, overloaded, the files of the co-ordinated mantra
I sanction the urge to fulfill the psychological self
Formaldehyde euphoria, coma in the traumatic modem
I laughed in my voids as I counted the seconds in fragments
I crept through the frames of the board in a virtual sequence
Gone is the pilot, the egg and the boy in the segment
A coagulated cosmos balance that hysterical frequence
A single neutron floating in a different universe
A cloud among planets drifting by the whims of man
Who what where when
I stole the untold wish
Marked it and made it to mine
A suitcase full of secrets
Contained only my silence
Safe inside this plastic sphere
I traded the dream for a map
Recycling the winding galaxy
A asceptic of secondary absence
A premature guide to the flow
A located word of the sentence
Will feed me with what I need to know
About
Paralyzed coitus interruptus
Genetic hallucinated crisis
A rat in the trap like young Moses
Can bloom out of him metamorphosis
So
I open the screen to the mission
The final infernal decoy
A brainchild of pure demolition
The purpose is seek and destroy
Who what where when
