1. Obsession
Wild obsession
Comes back persistently
Intrusive illusion
Like a snake slithering
I know it can't be true
So I scream: Fuck it all!
But in my helpless brain
The seed of evil is sown
CHORUS:
I'm somewhere on the side
She is there with him
He looks at her with passion
What a son of a bitch!
And I think: Oh no!
Then I'm falling down
To reach rock-bottom
Still feeling mad inside
Am I insane?
I'm creating fuckin' treason
Only in my head
Damn it! Bloody hell!
Still the same peace
The same infirmity
There they are together
I wish I could stop thinking
chorus:
I'm somewhere...
2. Robin's Cruise
You would not recognise me now
After all those years on the island
Though my heart is hot with love
My skin turned into dry parchment
My body feels like a block of lime
A curious map of scars and creases
No one could read and make sense of me
Robin - a half-baked host of the reef
chorus:
I'm alive - a one-man island
Stranded alone on the margins of life
Whatever happens don't try to save me
I have forsaken the meaning of time
Exposed to the blazing sun of the reef
I found consolation in awkward prayers
With memory consumed by salt and heat
I could not picture a human Jesus
One day I spotted an advancing sail
But went to great lengths not to be seen
I thought the world was peopled by fools
With souls diseased with imperial greed
chorus:
I'm alive - a one-man island
Stranded alone on the margins of life
Whatever happens don't try to save me
I have forsaken the meaning of time
I'm alive, a single island
Charmed by the speechless songs of the sea
I'd rather die in my bedding of sand
The starry heavens shine only for me
3. Ball Of My Life
Pageant of light
In the ballroom
Pictures around
Their smooth faces luring me
Come with; us don't be afraid
This ball is being held for you
Illusion of brightness
Because happiness lurks in the shadow
I look inside; don't know why I feel it there
Don't want to come back to the ball/banquet
chorus:
Mine is the night and the dream
For just a moment right before the dawn
Under my eyelids are born
Moments and words that I recognise
Open wings of gates to paradise
Essence of happiness in my dream-
A gentle whisper: look after me
I tear the pictures; shatter the mirrors
Because they distort
Because they contort
I create an illusion that is hollow
Delusion of brightness
That they make my own world
Freedom of colours, no boundaries
So I could do whatever I want
chorus
4. Seeker Of Truth
Easy rules
Easy formulas
for Easy life
Searching for truth in the world of lie
A lie of thousands faces
A thought is floating in the infinite sea
Of rudeness and lunacy
Obscurity and insularity
I don't get who is blind
Me or the morons on TV
Chorus:
The sailors on the sea of lunacy
I don't want to sail with you
Sail alone
The sailors on the sea of lunacy
To the hell of ignorance
Sail alone
Dead rules
Dead formulas
for Dead life
Who will point to the source today?
Who will show us the path today?
I'm drowning immensely
In this daily pulp
Which will make everything even
The army of people with souls made of shit is growing
chorus:
5. Doringen
She waited on
The days were stark
She tried the trick
Of praying hard
But tricks don’t work
Gods play it tough
This is romance
No loss - no love
The lonely knight
Somewhere in Wales
Kisses his dear
Doringen’s face
The trial of love
Was part of the rite
I shall dote no more
Beyond your sight”
chorus
Doringen, Doringen
Your man’s miles away
Left you with prayers
Mournful to say
The lonely knight
Somewhere in Wales
Kisses his dear
Doringen's face
The trial of love
Was part of the rite
I shall dote no more
Beyond your sight
She will not wait
Done by a villin
Thrice in the woods
Craves it again
She asks: who cares
for chilvary?
Is not dreaming
Grossly unreal?
chorus
Doringen, Doringen
Your man's miles away
Looks for adventures
A most knightly way
solo
chorus
Doringen, Doringen
The fool miles away
Sold you to devils
Call it your day
Doringen, Doringen
The fool miles away
Sold you to devils
Call it your day
6. Memories
Memories go up the stairway of my soul
And I never tell them to stop
Fragments of thoughts today have no meaning
Silent pictures of me from the past
I immerse my heart in the wonder of creation
And strain my inner sight
I look for the essence and meaning of existence
That I always leave one step behind
Chorus:
I'm reviving shadows one more time
Only for myself
Dancing echoes in streams falling down
Hearts and thoughts
Thoughts and hearts
I'm reviving shadows one more time
Memories go up the stairway of my soul
Some wait, some don't
Sometimes a dream will fail
When an invisible tear washes me
I feel that yesterday everything was good
And it is always better than today
Human nature is ever unfulfilled
Never still but moving back and forth
chorus
7. A Sin Act (Instrumental)
8. Canton Eyes
Eye to eye, cash in hand, cold heart
The vamp-wigged girl is now in your hands
Laced stockings below lean thighs
An exotic number it's for the good times
The eyes are slanting wildly catlike
The shrill musk scent feels just as wild
Her mouth trained promises whispered
A leather skirt an Asian charm in pink
You should have thought twice before
You reached for that precious piece of China
The mind is fettered by silk-spun lust
An occidental sap trapped by a Canton mynah
She makes you whimper - sounds unknown
You find a Self you haven't known before
Your nape coated with the opium of her lips
Your spine tingles with anguish and delight
You know you'll come crawling back
To her drugging lap and breast sometime
Thirsty of the mystery accent of her tongue
You sold your reason to your Canton love
You should have thought twice before
You reached for that precious piece of China
The mind is fettered by silk-spun lust
An occidental sap trapped by a Canton mynah
9. My Day
This is the day when I want to be alone
Without you
Without friends
Without anyone
And it doesn't matter if it's here or there
Ceiling- the only bearable companion
My home - guardian of my peace
You won't chat with me today man
So better stay out of my room
Chorus:
I'm sick of you all
Today is my day
I don't need your worries
I'm sick of you all
I don't need your help
This day is for me
And I hear the words I hate
Are you sick?
What's happened?
It's the kids again?
And then I'm not ashamed to swear
Today is the day of my ego
Leave me alone
Don't ask me why
That's the way it's got to be
chorus
10. Chainsaw Killer
Some say Jasper's father was really mean
He wouldn't sleep a wink all night
if he forgot to make his wife cry somehow
The man's brain was eaten away by drink
Some say Jasper's mother went bonkers
For they would find no other answer
To the mocking question whether
It was sane of her not to leave or die
chorus
Jasper may have gone through the hell
In his buried infant days
But it may well be.
It seems to me
No one quite knows why
He went down the murky road
Of a chainsaw , of a chainsaw killer
Some say Jasper's grand-dad had an axe
The best lumber-jack in the hamlet
Could handle an ancient oak alone
And then leave his money to the whores
Today chainsaws scathe the forest green
Flooded by platoons of hearty lads
Raving motors scare the wolves away
Jasper roams alone in woods and broods
chorus
Jasper may have x2
Jasper thinks the trees should grow in peace
He fondles the birch-bark with affection
No one listened to him until the day
When a state-owned chainsaw disappeared
Some say Jasper could not use a chainsaw
Some say: "he couldn't tell chalk from cheese"
But our Jasper is gone so are his wits
Cavorting newshounds are swarming in his hut
chorus
Jasper may have x2
