1. God in the Political Asylum
2. Inexstasis
i caress you surrounded by
moisture and the air stops burning the lighthouse increases the pressure this room is
night's warm echo
i'm walking descending through your streets the roof are laiden with your scent inlaid the
vortex
positioned through light the vice is perfect carrion hoardes through spectres' dense heat
the arrogance
met by midday white noise you rise to me now entreat that i watch only silence between
here and the place
where you stood
3. Single Erosion
oh master completion i motion blackness unbroken for all cradled
notions the body is fragile the pulse is daunted seeks loving seeks impulse finds nothing
the movement of
the spheres means nothing to you and time scaling breath only crumbling relics to you a
heap of hack
imagery stockpile of bones a lie to you a wrong turn leads to a silent valley no birds call
from the trees it
presses you deep toward your kingdom languish there procrastinate oh sister insoluble
you motion
silence irreversible failed notions the creature you summon you carry you cradle eat
purpose kill
substance metamorphose - you enemy from your thoughts notion slips away never
prepared steel
commotion felt inside your thoughts broil upward but never betray the lie to you excess
leads to the silent
valley i vowed never to return halcyon on fields exposed as burrs and nettles sun turns
through ash, eradicate
emerge passage spent in humming atmosphere the ether crystallised hangs in front of
your eyes starlight
over my sullen valley the planet lurches round on an ancient spine
4. Killed by the Hypnotic Bastard
twas like a maelstrom with a notch that nearer every day kept narrowing its boiling wheel
until the agony
toyed cooly with the final inch of your delerious hem and you dropped lost when
something broke and let
you from a dream as if a goblin with a gauge kept measuring the hours until you felt the
seconds weigh
helpless in his paws and not a sinew stirred could help and sense was setting numb when
god remembered
and the fiend let go - overcome it was not death for you stood up and all the dead lie down
it was not frost
for on your flesh i saw siroccos crawl nor fire for just your marble feet could keep a
chancel cool and yet it
tasted like them all as if your sentence stood pronounced and you were frozen led from
dungeons luxury
of doubt to gibbets and the dead and when the film had stitched your eyes a creature
gasped retrieve which
anguish was the utterest then - to perish or to life for breath is warm and yours was all but
doomed nor dark surrounds for all the bells put out their tongues for noon and yet it tasted
like them all the
figures i have seen set orderly for burial reminded me of mine killed by the hypnotic
bastard drowned in
his own sleep a god of useless meditation a carcass of the soul of man with fodder from
the mouth of ages
5. Sun Turns Through Ash
twenty five years arranged in sequence and from the east the night
is shinning clock is spinning backwards mind lurching forward and through the silence the
dawn is
pulsing black wind, wind of nerves soul not a iron soul of crisis fragile psyche impulse held
rigid grasping somnambulance - submission spoonfed deliverance assured by motion
withheld
by force, flicker awaken and leave your body the pulse has slackened from all corners the
girders are straining a dim spectre carries you forward minutes decipher eternal tremours
racing underground arise recognise advance with eager steps - hello friend sound and
parameter held in balance blue gossamer eternally focussed minute pressure splits
concentration to grasp the world - a field full of weeds i once had a frame i once held a
glimpse
i went inside the ancient place pillars of moisture mustangs delivered evening beguiling - i
forgot it all
6. In Unmet Chambers Slain
from the vision the meditations of dreaming the lines
a human respite bleed away the scarred emotions of time and fire the reputation the stone
delerium tells the tale all rack and ruin caressing the face with tiny outstreched moments
of
discretion a demonstration astride the vision it cries of simple pain and pleasures too
complex
to comprehend expression the memories born of the solitude the widow is torn stand to
one
side in unmet chambers she is slain memories as lies - impressions memories as lies -
expression memories as lies - memorise silence the face of the messenger - a savage the
face
of the messenger of pain spilling the lines of eternity imprisoned as memories of
changeless
futile fate rising above the perfection whilst it sears the banner of recividist pate savage
the
face of the messenger is savage the face of the messenger it hates i am the lord of pain
7. Victims of the Insane (Trouble (US) cover)
8. Under the Wood
under the wood is nothing left but rotting crawl from generations all to tired
to think about it and as if nothing could be caught between the lines they prey and perish
at the
hands of insolence under the wood safe from fear following with no light we passed a
sinking
ship upon the rotting shores and asked of them why is it they can be no more "a fear of
darkness will descend upon the light where suffering shall bring the meek to tear the
might"
9. In Heaven
