1. Rising
2. Writhing
Sharing the table with gods
Drinking their nectar in equality
Listen to the talk of the immortal
Denying their omniscience
Blinded by overconfidence
he hides the hollow icon
"I swear I don't have it"
No honesty, just theft
Flesh of his own son to eat
– It was his last misdeed
Dehumanized he fell
– Down and down beneath
Writhing to the ground
– To bedew his lips
Water draws back
– He touches sand
Begging he falls before them
Sentenced to eternal agony
Nothing to drink he runs dry from inside
Branches of fruits blown away
Boulder upon his head seems to fall
Fear cords up his throat
Triple torments for the king
And his son has been reborn
Flesh of his own son to eat
– It was his last misdeed
Dehumanized he fell
– Down and down beneath
Writhing to the ground
– To bedew his lips
Water draws back
– He touches sand
3. Black In Men
You cannot describe what's happening within
A disruptive factor
- I am the dog that doesn't bark but bite
Inseminate beliefs of hate inexpressible
Compassion denied
- I am the cloud on your sunshiny day
I humilate, I agitate
I break your spine
- I'm lil' devil that dwells in your ear
You cannot fight me with tooth and nail
I'm omnipresent
- I'm the 666 on your celestial shine
You'd kill for me
You'd kill for...
Black in men
I turn the world's back on you
There's no resistance
- I am the dirt on your snowwhite dress
You suffer for the sins that I have done
My mental garbage
- I'm never sorry when you are worried
Sickening supremacy, I press you down
There's no escape
- I am offense, you are withdrawal
Nothing is as it was before
A subtle mutation
- I am on fire when you are frozen
You'd kill for me
You'd kill for...
Black in men
4. The Grimace Of Angst
Take a look back
– Feel something that's behind you
Prepared to attack
– A grin that stares through you
Heart beats so fast
– The inmost fear it comes creeping
This shock will last
– Adrenaline keeps on flowing free...
Rumbling, rustling, the noise that makes you turn
Break out in a sweat, your stomach starts to churn.
Some sound comes from very far
Objects in the mirror seem closer than they are...
Don't take a look back
– There could be something that's beside you
Distorted face
– The grimace which mocks you.
Heart beats so fast
– The inmost fear it comes sweeping
This shock will last
– Adrenaline keeps on flowing free...
Rumbling, rustling, the noise that makes you turn
Break out in a sweat, your stomach starts to churn.
Some sound comes from very far
Objects in the mirror seem closer than they are...
5. Bloodred Letter Day
Plunging it in its chest
Subject's color reddens
Solid blade by moonlight
My order is to serve
Killing is my business
Noone stops my business
A note in my calendar
No need to surrender
Red X mark
Six bullets are greeting
Strengthened I leave this place
On violence I am feeding
Again I'm falling from grace
Killing is my business
Noone stops my business
A note in my calendar
No need to surrender
I cannot refuse, I got no time to lose
I must do it today, throwing your life away
Killing is my business
Noone stops my business
A note in my calendar
No need to surrender
I cannot refuse, I got no time to lose
I must do it today, throwing your life away
6. Road Leads To... ?
7. ...Nowhere
As life's u-turn draws nearer
You think you see your spheres now clearer
As you drown in senseless utopia
Asphyxiated by your own dementia
As life's u-turn draws nearer
You think you see your fears now clearer
Deception of mind – corroding
Drifting away – reality
Your road, it turns to nowhere today
- and nothing you have learned
Your road, miles of straight it wears down
- and nothing you learned at all...
You think you're a god now
Crushing the face of truth
Shades of yours are here – elusive
You get caught in self-weaved webs
You think you're a god now
Ignoring the face of lies
Words of yours are spoken – silent
You are caught in your own trap
Your road, it turns to nowhere today
- and nothing you have learned
Your road, miles of straight it wears down
- and nothing you learned at all...
8. Swallowing Emptiness
You're so blind – So Am I
Bleeding Eyes – Eye can't see
Falling down – In Fathomless Depths
Soundless I Plunge – Into Dark
(Feels like something's stabbing me, I feel so vunerable...)
You're so blind – So Am I
Bleeding Eyes – Eye can't see
Falling down – In Fathomless Depths
Soundless I Plunge – Into Dark
I can't do anything, it gets out of control
World of disillusion, it tears on my soul
A fading will to patch up the scars
World of confusion, the downfall is near...
No remedy – It's definite
Final wars – When comes the end?
Hypocrite – who sees just good
Life denied – Can't hear no more
(Feels like somethings hit me, I feel so violated...)
No remedy – It's definite
Final wars – When comes the end?
Hypocrite – who sees just good
Life denied – Can't hear no more
I can't do anything, it gets out of control
World of disillusion, it tears on my soul
A fading will to patch up the scars
World of confusion, the downfall is near...
9. Mors Interruptum
Now, it's the time, my forced lapse of life
Shine of the blade that reflects the light
Affinity for death, it quickens my beat
Moribund I set the cut, blood soaks the floor
I want to run but the ground is pulled away (underneath)
I want to reach the light but my sight is blurred (blind)
I’m already focussed on the other side (thoughts)
As my heartbeat awakes
Hey – who gave me back the breath
I stood on the sill to death
Pull the plug and let me go
Cold wind blows through my hair
Bridge at night, I can feel the air
Last step - I leave the brace
Hard water benumbs my face
I want to run but the ground is pulled away (underneath)
I want to reach the light but my sight is blurred (blind)
I’m already focussed on the other side (thoughts)
As my heartbeat awakes
Hey – pull the plug and let me go...
10. Second Ascension
We'll rise
Like phoenix to the skies
We laid down shattered and torn
But tomorrow we will be reborn
We enter the heavens
Hovering through time and space
Shifting our senses
Travelling a parallel universe...
