1. Awaken
Awaken
Awaken
Arise my frozen heart
Fill me with your warmth
I am in dire need
Please rule o'er me once again
I've felt so cold these last few years
My mind could ne'er've kept me
Pretense gave naught but fear
I need to believe I'm alive
and life should be so much more
I lost my faith in you
how come, I can't even recall
Please let me breathe again
Let me believe your sweet lies
of me not dying alone
of someplace to feel at home
I can't remember what it is to feel
My being beckons relief
This can not be the life to lead
Hand o'er my joy, you wicked thief
So come forth now and carry me
Through this existence
that much you owe me
Awaken, my cold heart, take this,
your last chance to revive me
Awaken
Awaken
So here is your final chance
to make me believe or understand
what I have been missing out on
Nevermore will rely on
those self contented happy fucks
who insist it's worth the sing
of a thousand unkept promises
Bring me the faith to which they cling
Lead and I will follow you
Lead and I will follow you
This time
I'll follow
your lead
I promise to be brave
Awaken, please,
my frozen heart,
this is my last call
2. Le Cirque Macabre
As far as my memory serves me right
I have always been right for this show
Come to me, see me now
I am a warning sign
Beggars can not be choosers
Accept that, show some spine
This is my life, a freak show on parade
Welcome to Le Cirque Macabre
This is my life, a freak show on parade
I can only tell you what I haven't done
How you do it, is up to you
Find a way though, find it fast
Choose a path and follow through
For if you don't help yourself to
a vision of your future
I've waited far too long for my wounds to heal
Don't romanticize my weakness and my failure
For if you do you will find out
how hell really feels
The twig I cling to for dear life
Is rife with thorns
I'll bleed forever
Come to mee, see me now
I am a warning sign
Beggars can not be choosers
Accept that, show some spine
This is my life, a freak show on parade
Welcome to Le Cirque Macabre
3. Such Horrid Anxiety
I see you are lonely
I can tell from your eyes
They glaze over like mine
So when I'd ask you
Could you not say yes
Whilst you are so benign
What fear then holds me back
Could you ever be unkind
I saw through your eyes
Saw how they'd shun
And lost their glow
Somehow
I know that pain
I know it well
I feel it too
Come now
Would you believe,
What we could conceive
Once we're as one
Don't freeze
When you imagine our kiss
Do you taste heavenly bliss
Or the monstrosity,
Taste of remiss
The thought of tonight
Makes doubt fill my head
Such light relief
Such heavy dread
Would you give yourself
To the likes of me
Are you prepared
To fall
Can you at all
Love such a foil
Or will you flout
Have me crawl
I see you are lonely
I can tell from your eyes
They glaze over like mine
So when I'd ask you
Could you not say yes
Whilst you are so benign
What fear then holds me back
Please don't be unkind
Please
Don't make me crawl
4. The Hopeless Appeal
I can not carry the weight of the world alone
So I must ask you now
For I can not do this alone anymore
Oh my love, would you please be mine
Will you give yourself tonight
Come to me and we'll arise
Far above the misery of mankind
We'll not know such sorrow
We'll only know the power of our love
You and me,
Together we will become gods
Become gods
I can not carry the weight of the world alone
So take my hand and look into my eyes
When you say that you love me
Be mine tonight and forever
Be mine tonight and I'll be yours
We'll be lovers in the sun and for
All time our love will be known
So come to me tonight
When you know it is the promised time
For us to unite and show the world
What true love has always been
Come to me and we'll arise
Far above the misery of mankind
We'll not know such sorrow
We'll only know the power of our love
You and me,
Together we will become gods
Become gods
I can not carry the weight of the world alone
Come into my waiting arms
Hold me close to your heart
For if our lov can not be
This world and this life mean nothing to me
Please say you cry these tears of joy
If not the outcome of my fear consumes me
If so, could you please still embrace me
So we may at least die ... toghether
Come to me and we'll arise
Far above the misery of mankind
We'll not know such sorrow
We'll only know the power of our love
You and me,
Together we will become gods
Become gods
5. In Blood Unite
I'll set foot inside your home
Like I have so many a day
This night is different; 'tis our last
We can't survive on what remains
In your eyes I recognize
The same pain that grows in me
For every day, we live decay's
Gruesome symphony
Come with me
We'll reach for the stars
Become eternal legends
Erase these bitter scars of ours
Immortal love
Though chained by life
I'll free us from this burden
In blood unite we become one
In blood unite to surpass blight
In blood unite 'gainst those who seek harm
In blood unite sacrifice is right
My paramour
Receive now
This blade of our transcedence
It will likewise
Impale me
Feel the growth of our remembrance
We will become in death what we
Could not become in life
We will become in death what we
Could not become in life
Bleed, bleed
Bleed for me
So you bleed for me as I too for you
And you know there comes and end to all this torment
My love, do not despair
Our deaths will be known for decades to come
And the tales of our lives,
These horrific burdens of foul disposition
We yearn for the unachievable to dire straits
And each time we fall we crawl to our feet
Only to again be struck down and feel the pain,
The stinging pain of this habitual bludgeoning
"No more," we beg, "no more"
But come another day, come another woesome bane
This is where it must end and end it will
Our souls seeping from our bodies ever so gently
Slowly falling free
I can not bare this any longer
And your eyes betray your heaviness
Come now my love, let's this life adieu
Fly your way away from these chains
Haunt not our defiers, you journey requires haste
Take care my love we'll meet again
Whe we're both on the other side
Where in golden shrines freedom rests
To end this endless night
Come with me
We'll reach for the stars
Become eternal legends
Erase these bitter scars of ours
Now in our hands
Our souls as one
Shuffle lose our mortal coil
We bleed out deliverance
6. Mid-Evil
Way back when, in medieval times,
The masses gathered from all around
Ignorant, scared and frustrated all
They were out for blood and sounded their call
They screamed
"Drown 'em, drown 'em
Till they're dead
Come let's drown those queers we've found
In our whiskey underground
Like Chinese snakes, like Roman mice
A delicacy, a delicate spice
Drown 'em, drown 'em
Till they're dead
Until they're dead"
We still live in
Mid-Evil times
Half of us
Are ignorant swine
"Come let's drown those queens we've found
In our whiskey underground
Like Chinese snakes, like Roman mice
A delicacy, a delicate spice"
"Come let's drown those fairies we've found
In our whiskey underground
Like Chinese snakes, like Roman mice
A delicacy, a delicate spice"
7. Hope is Lost in Glass Rain
I'm desperate for will to forget you
But although my memory tails shamelessly
Your face is burned in way too deep
And my mind starts pouring lies out over me
Shards of glass flash in front of me
I can not tell truth from my own fantasies
Shards of glass show what used to be
It's hard to tell even what it is
I think I see
Shards of glass falling endlessly
When my mind plays tricks constantly
Testament of my sanity
Tragic how dementia grabs hold of me;
My decrepit mind is slowly falling
A descent so loud it's scaring me
From afar I hear my madness calling
I begin to express this deep, deep longing
But loose my words almost instantly
It feels like it once was significant
But comes out as pure lunacy
Don't think less of me
Just because I broke
Would you withstand
A tide so strong
I stood in it's way
Forlorn
Feels like letting go
I don't have to know
When it finally comes
I will leave with it at once
Leave me be
I don't want you to see
And remember this reject
Undignified and dead
There is a reverence in seeing
long awaited lunacy finally setting in
But the indignity of something that once
stood so proud falling down is wrong
How any man could be asked to bare it
I do not know
I can no longer see my reflection
in these shards of glass
and now I see that all this time
the glass puppet was me
8. Frightfully Familiar and Beloved Demise
These waking hours known so well
Sleep end this horrid day before the next bad spell
Feel it slowly setting in,
Fight it, I can't
Toos 'n' turn feeling the cold of night
Tear my heart right out
First the sharp sting, then the sour burn
Such diseased delight
The vulgar comfort of recognition
Acerbitas Familiaris
Feel it coming; it can't be far
Damned be indecision
It only comes in solitude,
No daffodils for me, William
Slitting wrists
Cease to breathe
Please insist
To be brought relief
Time's running out
Too late now,
it's setting in,
Mother keep me,
It's through my skin
This is torture,
No man deserves
They may not hold,
My tormented nerves
I've cried myself to sleep so often
I can't even remember the time before
Toss 'n' turn feeling the cold of night
Tear my heart right out
First the sharp sting, then the sour burn
Such diseased delight
It came to me in solitude
And will stay with me for life
Do you see this darkness
on the horizon?
NO
Tell me please,
will this pressure ever lessen?
MORE
If that is so, I beg you tell me
what is wrong with me!
BEING
What then, wise oracle,
will become of me?
LEFT BEHIND
It's hard to trust,
A guiding light
Is it the shimmer of savior?
Is it the settling of dust?
Or could it be,
My mind aflutter
'Cause it's detached,
Finally?
It is the reflexion of clear steel
The use of which is clear to me
Freedom is a sharp blade
I'll push it in until I sleep
Burn - My - Lost - Soul
Burn - It - Now
