1. Asylum
In my melancholic asylum
I embrace the things to come
Betray the world with my solitude
Despair is my middle name
I'm the one who's to blame
Wear disguises of sorrow
Hide beneath the clouded sky
Dry the tears in my eye
Await the shroud
Of relief
Silence thy lullabies
Look behind the disguise
Envision
A pity entity
2. Veil of Lead
Don't try to remember
But longings are stronger
The tangled ghosts
Taking shape in my mind
A veil lower over me
I try to slide through
Threaten to suffocate
Still I am strong
Sweet spittle fulfill your mouth
Flew down the throat
Became liquid lead
Frozen in your soul
It took a fragment
And left a gaped wound behind
Distant memories
Hurting in my mind
I look for a course
To your poisoned soul
A veil lowers over me
I try to slide through
Threaten to suffocate
Weakness spreads in me
3. Weiss
Gedanken kreisen wild in meinem Kopf
Doch Ideen fìr die Ewigkeit berìhren mich nicht
Ich kann in deine Augen sehen und doch
Begreife ich nicht den sinn, der sich darin versteckt
Wie gegen Mauern zu laufen komm ich mir vor
Geh nur im Kreis, denn mein Weg fìhrt nur zurìck
Ich schwimme wie auf einem groŸen See
Umkreise einen Strudel, der mich verschlingen will
Ein dìnner Grad zwischen Glauben und Verzweiflung
Auf dem Berg der „ngste schwimme ich
Ich kann in deine Augen sehen und weiŸ
Die Kraft der Gefìhle untersch¤tzt man so leicht
Einsamkeit und Leid erwarten mich
Und nur die Legenden kennen die Qual
Es war wie vor einer Ewigkeit
Die Gipfel des Lebens standen mir bevor
Tr¤ume bestimmten alle meine Taten
Und der Weg lag fast klar im Licht
Doch dann war Dunkelheit
Der Sog schwoll an
Zog mich in seinen gnadenlosen Bann
Verstrickt in diesen Zyklus voller Pein
Verlor ich fast die Sinne
Sie schwanden mir
Ich war hilflos wie ein Blatt im Wind
Augen sie æffneten sich langsam doch
Licht konnte ich durch T¤ler voller Tr¤nen nun sehen
Der Sog verlor an Kraft und mit Mìhen
Streifte ich seinen Einfluss endgìltig ab
Ich kann in deine Augen sehen und weiŸ
Die Gefìhle vergessen sind sie niemals mehr
Doch liegen sie nun weit hinter mir zurìck
Ein neues Lied verdr¤ngte allen Schmerz
4. Sole
The sole disciple
Of a forgotten faith
Buries the last survivor
In a fading soil
Bleeding black, I'm bleeding black
Wounded
A hope is falling apart
Beneath the sacred surface
Cracks in the eggshell
Called life
Still feasting on this solemn moment
Descending... to a narrow place
Fevered dreams
Inside this immortal asylum
Eternal yearning
And petrified emotions
5. Be Kept in Suspense
What I hoped for
Disbaned in haze
Looking out for a sign in maze
A leap in the dark
What I believed
What I believed
Illusions in time
A beam of light
Which was in sight
Determined in mourning
What I hoped for
Disbaned in haze
Looking out for a sign in maze
A leap in the dark
What I sought
In my mind
A wall in my head
I swim
In a sea
Of uncertainty
What I hoped for
Disbaned in haze
Looking out for a sign in maze
A leap in the dark
My eyes
My tired eyes
Frozen in the sky
I see
A way again
A neverending circle
What I hoped for
Disbaned in haze
Looking out for a sign in maze
A leap in the dark
6. Dreams of Misery
Probably lost, all alone, I stand beside me
Hearing bizarre voices, echoing in my brain
Impaled eyes staring from above
I creep away in my silent cry
Anger, rage burst out of my fragile soul
Eager for an answer which relieve my mind
Caught in this dreams of misery
A neverending whirlpool of suffering
Feelings and emotions without control
Surround me in an impervious swarm
No escape from this scary nightmare
I propel to my aimless destiny
Bleeding orchids growing from my ceiling
Immaterial clowns dancing on my grave
Caught in this dreams of misery
A neverending whirlpool of suffering
7. Cease
An observation, a thought, I'm overcome by fear
Like a sign in her face I'm not able to ask
Like a growing river of jealousy inside me
Rising out of nothing eating into my thinking
I know
I'm overcome by these feelings
It's easy to get into such a whirlpool
Like a trap slowly built up by itself
Soon these are the only feelings that control me
Probably wrong conclusions are buzzing inside my head
I see
How I'm slowly losing my self-control
Slipping through my spread-out fingers like sand
It's wrong to regard these things like that
I know what I wanna do now
What there is to do
But it's just a load
Burdened by myself
You only know you are guilty
He is able to understand me
I think to know what eyes tell
Your miserable thoughts are growing
Now I'm looking back and realize
That everything was unfounded and nothing
But sometimes pain is like water
Rising out of nothing and getting out of hand
8. Float
A burning bridge in the wake of silence
Crossing the rivers of liquid ice
The spiral virtue sentenced with the virus
Led by temptation and the echoing words
A final reflection the firestarter's on the run
Playing hide and seek inside this maze of oblivion
A vultures' feast on the doorsteps to serenity
Tiny streams of magma dripping through the shallow graves
Gifted with the pawns of nothingness
The void's embrace a fatal delight
A leaden fly on the way to the moon
On the rise yet drowning
Entangled in this infinite trawl
Floating the deserted oceans
Sanctified is this irregular quest
And I dream of dying
Alone I wait for my bride
Now I cannot explain
These words of pain
To you my dying friend
