1. Trapped Inside The Sun
I am a mourner in lack of tears
the ghoul now played by his own fears
that little boy inside of me
caught in unreality
now let me crawl
now let me bleed
wriggling in uncertainty
I clench my teeth
still unable to overcome
that a part of me is gone
I am the truth behind the lies
I am the wrath, I roll the dice
that greatness inside of me
deciding upon reality
now let me crawl
now let me bleed
wriggling in uncertainty
I clench my teeth
still unable to overcome
that a part of me is gone
trapped inside the sun
you are the darkness in their eyes
you live the wrath, you are the dice
you feed upon what bleeds in me
you are reality
now let me crawl
now let me bleed
wriggling in uncertainty
I clench my teeth
still unable to overcome
that a part of me is gone
i'm trapped inside the sun
still I am but a snowflake
spun on the whims of the
blizzard's glorious downpour
now let it come down!
open to the sun!
let it take me by the hand
and lead me to seemingly
inevitable change
I am a mourner in lack of tears
the ghoul now played by his own fears
I am the truth behind the lies
I am the wrath, I roll the dice
2. The Third Injury
for ever now man has been lost
in comprehensive darkness, seeking control
great minds have flakkered,
casting shivering light upon
looming immensity (possibility)
mankind detested what was unveiled
for it meant giving up his inbred sense
of superiority being reduced to but a splat
in the blackness of the eternal flow
rise above me
chasing shadows through my head
thinning as smoke when I try
to grasp what was not meant to be asked
betrayed by origin and belief,
humanity now suffered a third great injury
mankind lost his head to the axe
of freudian philosophy
you are the keeper,
you leave the site on burning
my only true kin,
yet you besiege me with...
with doubt
for all things lost
come back to haunt
with sodomizing threat
crazed by the voices in my head
things new spoiled by regret
how he closed his bleeding hands,
not willing to give up control
staring disbelieving
in the dark nethers of his soul
you are the keeper,
you leave the site on burning
my only true kin,
yet you besiege me with... (death)
in the eye of the storm
a sombre scene is set
a refuge for a familiar figure
lying petrified on a bed
paled face, eyes wide,
staring at the tapestry
of swirling emotions
above his head
his white lips open
unable to suppress
- a scream -
is this me I'm looking at?
3. A Thousand Sufferings
Tell me what you need
how you make 'em bleed
ripping out their love
raping out their love
like a thousand times before now
tell me what you want
how you live to haunt
creeping up their veins
after a thousand years of suffering
how you avenge a thousand sufferings
tell me what you breathe
rosettes of putrid meat
feeding on their life
feasting on their life
like a thousand times before now
tell me what you see
how (what) you came to be
wrenching out their pain
after a thousand years of suffering
how you avenge a thousand sufferings
how you give suffering
tell me what you need
tell me how you breathe
tell me how you feed
tell me what nameless dread
lies behind the mask of the psychopath
leading him to submit to the decadence
of lycanthrophy and thrive in suffering
freed from all sanity
after a lifetime of baring this sodomy
visionary of new times
disease of the city nights
visceral seduction by my side
I'll dance you into the morning light
as the world rolls by in all its pain
I'm counting bleached bones
in my closet again
empty people, with empty eyes
all craving the coldness of my knife
this city is now mine to take
I'll dance on its pain and eat its warped brain
lipstick smeared over pornographic smiles
go on living your life of lies
freed from all shame and regret
I'll deliver this city,
high pregnant with death
read my words on fragments of dried out skin
- god of all sin but I am only what lives
and breathes inside each and every one of you -
you're feeling it too
4. Run To Heaven
though love and life have led us to subside my ways
still eclipse in rememberance of those times
when we thought the dream to overpower the quirks of fate
high on the purity of the innocent rays we took a trip,
minds set to lush green infinite space
we ran to heaven, go !!
I've lost it all to you, blissful times of certainty
brothers in every way, we though we'd always be
heavens watchers you and me
how I looked up against the paleness
of a life where nobody pledges me eternity
we ran to heaven, go !!
and how my eyes have seen it pained
how these eyes have seen it fade away
how my eyes witnessed it burn
my feverish eyes have watched it all die
on my knees, i am forced to sacrifice
to this ever changing life
these hands...
look at these hands
look at them stains...
why can't it all just burn
and fade away
still I cannot forget your face
I am forced to fratricide
though my eyes have seen it pained
though these eyes have seen it fade away
though my eyes witnessed it burn
I will never cease to run ...
we run to heaven, go !!!!
5. Silhouetes
I long for this viscid infliction to disappear
an insult in the eyes of life causing me to sear
while I'm drunk on its obscenitty,
it's eating away at my integrity
unwrap the image what do i see?
an enmpty satisfaction secretly draining me
so dark, so weak the nethers of my soul
being compelled (condemned) by the image of a broken doll
how I've fathered this insanity
now let it be swallowed by your sea
my own reflections, a guiltful sight
how am I distasted by the hunger in these eyes
fall into temptation and into guilt
undermining everything I build
clinging to my shadow this mirage breating decay
how it has finally dawned upon me
the spell is tightning and I want out
even the blood from my veins can't smother the doubt
how I've fathered this insanity
now let it be swallowed by your sea
let it give away to something better,
to something new
for I am tired of craving the crude
Quiet now, let your hands bring back the peace
upon these broken shores of serenity
to give way to something better,
to something new
for I am tired of craving the crude
6. Amsterdam
7. Juglar Of Bones
an endless fall into thin air
devoid of all time and sound
I never felt my body touch the ground
still I laid there, sprawled,
wearing a painless stare
paralysed under purple skies
as silence swells to deafening
screams a spiral chaos
confusing me outside of myself...
laying upright
I face myself
a twisted corpse
a mangled shell
I've lost my form
so vulnerable
without me now
and for what purpose
it's not my game
it's not my game
it's not my hate
still with pain and life I pay
the necromancer
juglar of bones
so high on his corrupted throne
I face the violence
men as beasts
at each others throats
now forced foes
neglecting true spirit
a raving glow
tied behind
refusing to let go
it is your game
it is your hate
still no pain nor life you pay
the necromancer
the juglar of bones
so high on his corrupted throne
my life - my pain - my form - my soul
8. Crape
take this crape
I just can't walk away
trapped inside
take this crape
I just have to walk away
I'm trapped inside
patterns of lifelong frustration
revolving 'round this dazzling mutilation
issued from opposing sensations
can't turn my back
faithfully fulfilling my role, my deep-rooted act
by launching myself into yet another counter-attack
I can still not turn my back
patterns of lifelong desecration
burried under sandhills of negotiation
unleashing yet another chain of humiliation
can't turn my back
I'm the horned daemon in this play
reaping what I sow today
blot on the family tree
take this crape
you just can't walk away
trapped inside
take this crape
you just have to walk away
you're trapped inside
shackled by the winds
that made us to what we ware
what I am darkling
all in the family...
take this crape
we just can't walk away
trapped inside
take this crape
we just have to walk away
we're trapped inside...
9. Soulshriek (Despair, My Bride)
The house once filled with laughter and delight
home to shrill nothingness
now hear the wind pound the doors
she screams the peaks,
my sneering wedding choir
but a far greater force lies inside
has come to claim her wedding night
restless, she roams the upstairs rooms
and screams the breathing walls
her draging footsteps from the staircase
the bloodchilling rustle of her gowns, as she comes close
save sanity in a little box in my head
her icy fingers touching the nape of my neck
she has come to claim her wedding night
demanding what's hers, my righteous bride
her shape plunges me into dismay
still with her I must lay
for I am the enthralled numbed by the sight of her
It's been a while where black roses bloom
it's been a while where happiness mourns
I sink into her embrace, her maddening whispers,
her nails diggin' my skin reentering stigma,
with ashen lips and coarse tongue
she feeds from the old wounds
and she'll take me to a moonless heaven,
into the weary night
for she shrieks my soul with
those empty sockets of despair,
my righteous bride
10. Torn Into Divinity
your essence circling
the centre of my soul,
tempting a new ascend
the pain has all but gone,
only now there's your softening
beauty to relent
molten silver pumping my veins
overpowering entanglement
in the gossamer of delightful complexity
leads to thrilling agony
as i find myself torn into divinity
into divinity
as I am doomed, forever lost,
to you and to our shadowplay
as I am doomed, to pay the cost,
when moving to brusque, fearing the day...
the chain will be broken
life without you
what is left of me
without this realm
that leaves a paled reality
where my mind is she
and loss is my only enemy
we take care of the shadows
for you and yours and me and mine
are now one
where my mind is she
and loss is my only enemy
you are the answer
to my life
to my sins
you are the key
to what bleeds in me
for all eternity
and to what breaths inside of me
for what grieves you
grieves me, my love (what's)
inside of me
inside of you
