3. Dream
1. Phantom
PHANTOM
I've been lost in conjecture
Inside the labyrinth of words
Sunk in the lake
Full of my cold dreams
Immense deeps
Of icy abyss
Among the immemorial mist
Mysterious power
Am I you?
Or are you myself?
Who Am I?
And who you are?
Give me your hand
Make me believe you exist
That you are not a phantom
Immaterial creature
Your face...
A mirror reflection of mine?
Or maybe inversely?
I want to know!
Are you silent?
Why?
What offence have I commited?
Answer me!
You are leaving again with no word
Can't you answer me?
Or maybe you are a prisoner
Just like me?
Among four walls
Only me
Among four walls
My fears my scare
Another time
Between the devil and the deep sea
Where are you?
Where have you gone?
My shadow
Whoever you are...
2. Diasparagmos
DIASPARAGMOS
The curtain disclosed the stage
The last scene to let it consummate
Diasparagmos! The crowd demands blood
The victims of life in the voice of the God. Agreed!
The wish of the crowd will be fulfilled
Grey-haired old man false prophet points you out
Mad crowd's acme
With murder in their eyes they surround the victim
To strike a finishing blow in amok
Diasparagmos! Diasparagmos!
Chaotic dance of shadows among stony statues
Blood shed upon the altar in the name of rebirth
Diasparagmos! Death and destruction
Venomous glance cast furtively
That's the end the pack of hounds is fed
The murderous passion has been paid back
The beast has gone into recesses of the soul
To revel in victory while dreaming
And when the time of awakening comes
It will leave its den to set disarray
Diasparagmos! Diasparagmos!
The moment of reflection has come the crowd has cooled down
Looking at their hands spotted with blood
Glances shrouded with silence
Are that we? Questions without answers
Nothing but silence and smell of death
That don't let forget about themselves
Anonymous crowd withdraws
They leave to find excuse
For their vile deeds
Condemning themselves on forever damnation...
Diasparagmos! Diasparagmos!
3. Dream
DREAM
Spinning vicious circle morbid thoughts come back
To strike with doubled force
I’m loosing all my sanity slowly
I’m loosing another arguments…
I’m no longer able to defend myself
As relentless blows wound me sorely
I’m gazing at the grotesque word as if through a pane
Surrounded by fears that choke me on
I can’t feel anything I have no wish at all
But answers for plain questions
I’m shrinking and fall asleep
In a dream full of nightmares and restlessness
The clock strikes another hours
Nothing is able to case this
I’m dreaming, I’m dreaming my nightmare
Deadly afraid to awake
Afraid to learn that
This nightmare comes true
Like a statue hewn out in marble
Still, bathed in cold sweat I’m dreaming
Embraced by the dark I’m standing alone
There’s nothing around but darkness
I’m trying to move and go onward
Yet I cant as something’s holding me back
The ever-present pure silence
So unnatural, so sore
I’m screaming as I can’t stand that pain
My silent scream remains unanswered
I’m silent I shed tears
That sculpt deep bloody stigmas on my cheeks
I’m loosing the remnants of delusions and faith
That something is to happen
Questions throng themselves
They will pass away With no response nor elucidation
I’m dying in torment of silence
Alone among impenetrable darkness
I’m dying doomed to be forgotten
No ultimate answers have I got…......
