1. Theta Division
2. In Un Cielo Di Pece
3. Sperm like Honey
Sperm Like Honey
Last night I lost control
Last night I lost control
Dreamt of dying
Died a thousand times.
So many different deaths
Smiling at me Caressing me Promising delight
Last night I lost control
Thought my shells were strong enough.
So many different deaths
Making love to me,
Sucking me,
granting delight.
And my sperm becomes like honey
dripping from distance,
blessing the earth, sweet as a new womb.
Death is gone, life is gone, the shells reform…….
4. Disintegrate
5. Of Lost Desires
Of Lost Desires
From this oblique matrix
He watches the plains of life
Silent are now the spirits
And the things have lost their voice.
The first born man knows and suffers.
The dead are walking
his heart with them.
The memory of darkness
Burns again
Making him the living witness
Of a collapsing universe.
The first born man knows and suffers
The dead are walking
With hands like knives
With hands like knives
With hands like knives
6. Shelter 1
7. La Simmetria Del Delore
La Simmetria Del Delore
I morti maturano, il mio cuore con essi.
Pietà di se nell'ultimo umore ha la terra.
Muove nei vetri dell'urna
Una luce d'alberi lacustri;
mi devasta oscura mutazione, santo ignoto:
gemono al seme sparso larve verdi.
il mio volto è loro primavera.
Nasce una memoria di buio
In fondo a pozzi murati, un'eco di timpani sepolti:
sono la tua reliquia patita
Desiderio delle tue mani bianche
Nel buio della fiamma: sapevano di polvere e di morte.
Erano subito di neve, cosi' le parole:
un po' di luce, e poi la nebbia e gli alberi,
e noi fatti d'aria al mattino.
Ancora un calice di profumo mi spezzava le mani,
quando la luce accendeva il crepuscolo
sull'altare del silenzio
E con piccole ali di cristallo
io solo sfioravo la soglia di questo dolore
8. For A Drowning Soul
9. The Circle of Waters
10. 7119
11. The Meaning of Solitude
The Meaning of Solitude
Punish my black heart for I have sinned.
Nail my black heart for I have sinned
Leave me alone in
This evening of despair
When nothing has the same meaning again
And this core of self-deception
Fills the pits of solitude.
Punish my black heart
For I'll sin again
With the same, old illusions
As my monodimensional guiding light.
And when everything will regain perspective,
I will finally find a meaning
to this deep grey solitude of mine.
Punish my black heart
Nail my black heart
Melt me.
12. Over Absolute Black
Over Absolute Black
Evanescent figures walk by my side
As I silently cross the borders of night
Their voices gently push me through a solid prism of noise
I hear them calling my name.
Take me with you
Take me through you
on a journey over this absolute black
The ghosts of psychic collapse
Walked by my side
As I vanished through the borders of night
Where an image of purity and domination
Painted the sky of pale dead colors
And swept away the perfume
of that fucking absolute black.
13. Lick My Poison
14. A Descent to Babylon
A Descent to Babylon
The towers of pain In crimson light drowning Imprison us
The wells of pain by purple light blessed Imprison us
We grab the nails of domination
And our fist becomes the FLAME of Babylon
With the blood of our enemies
Leaving a sour taste in our mouth
We the Archangels of Fire
unite the worlds of weakness
under our flag of DISINTEGRATION
For we are the wings of
The immense beast called SUPREMACY
Our voices raise as one
Our hearts beat as one
Our eyes see as one.
The future is ours: Babylon is falling.
