1. Ruins of a shining Heritage
greater moonlights, greater days
old histories and heroes's places
not so far for eternity
there's a giant marching
ignorance took his eyes
mass, collective, nothingness
shades covered our pages
how could one read
how could one know
all the strong seeds
weakened, suffocated
communion lies on the past
delusion is my throne
the giant marching
has no face anymore
but my heart is a thorn
when the blinds passed on
evolution took their eyes
their small nature
gifted by a shroud
hides from the light
i hail the gods in my veins
waiting for the moment
the call beyond my tragedy
to have a sit by their side
and then
over the reeks of a won world
i'll rise my weapons and cry
for i have no one to kill anymore
2. Under an Altar, Over the Flies
I see one light...
but I'm looking back
there's no enough fire
to light too many ways
all the same portraits
alike
there's no enough fire
not even will
over an altar, under the flies
it remains dark ahead
then I look back
and i notice it was the same
a few heroes, few swords
few choosen ones
a million flies
diseases
there's no enough fire
plagues lie everywhere
but then
the ocean can't avoid
its own contamination
putrefaction flows, floods
dirty rivers on their course
when darkened water
blows the last torch
i look back
and find no direction
when darkness holds us all
over an altar, under the flies
it's all the same
and i see no guidance
on history, on philosophy
eternal fin de siécle
weak swords
when fire lies on the past
future i see none
but comes the day
i'll know if i failed
i can, i know, win their virus
but am i able to pass, alone,
their legions of worms?
3. Pathological Passion
who cares where the painkiller comes from
black belted candybox
as long as it's sold
as nails to my cross
sadness
who cares about the dots on the wall
red and grey organic paint
as long is your brain
I just blowed out
blindness
who needs quotes from some genius
staring into his crypt
as long as his eyes
get my fingers to pierce it
illness
who really knows
what was in life that corpse
as long as it feeds
dozen millions of worms
painless
fill that doll with sand
before it's gone, rot
give a toy to your children
play and learn with the dead
4. Cold Eyes Hide my Anguish
when you find no one to talk
outrageous mankind
able to think... not feeling
i see a trace in his voice
you hide
your disguise
tragedy! that's what we live
that's what we release
predictable,
hateful seeds
I plant them
when you find no one to talk
thank youself for being alone
miss my cold eyes
miss your mirror
that hides our anguish
i have nothing to add
to a tired elite
i only spread my semen
joining my children
to the doomed army
marching on this garden
up the spiral
the future right behind me
in every new step
the top gets distant
i'm close to my end
nauseous play
violent game
if i had no eyes
would you still miss them?
5. Greater than Misery
no matter how far i go
no matter how distant i look
for the content i seek
misery! thats all i see
telling my eyes to regret
how sad it doesn't know
my head won't turn back
and my travels won't end
till i learn with misery itself
all the the tricks and the diseases
misery, listen to me once
i'd not ask you to stop...
for it's your malevolence
i want to learn myself
for thats all the life needs
but i'm sure i know
why you always run away
knowing me more than i know
it's enough to be sure
i'll be greater than you
6. Torture is a Turn on
i want to sedate the world,
all the scum, and cut their pieces!
wait until they're awake
and make their tears my laugh
i want to cry...
cry out my rage
watching them die
from famine, murders and pain
oh... the whispers..
how sweet they are
when begging my cruelty
to let them live... live?
so let's keep them live
to kill them every new day
lets practice a new murder...
believes, creeds and deeds
then they are meaningless
and now i notice...
they always were
so i get up... and kill them again
7. Purification
