1. With Rue and Fire
Walking alone with a tempting grin to follow the voice that guidesa small frown. Sobs echo past these blinded eyes and deny me of myhappiness. Dismal shades of light brightens my path to solitudeand sympathy. In some sick way I enjoy my pain. It always seems toindulge me. Frozen walls of ice guard my every dream, protectingme from what seems real. With rue and fire, all demons are castaway. With water and stone, the sadness drowns in vain. On thornsand glass, I'm tortured with love. In tears and blood, I forgiveyou once again. This day, I remember the cloudy sky In which Itraveled high above. But now my wings are broken and I am leftalone.
2. The Jealous Sun
Awaken my soul and open my eyes. Show me the journey and feed mymind. Take me away to lands of green. Forever falling through Godsblack veil. Darker spirits than this, have fallen past my eyes.Even through this twilight, my smile lies to me. I can smell thescent of dark and cold winters frost. Deeper in the void we looksearching for a golden glance. The jealous Sun is burning for me.So many years my heaven has wept. 25 winters of mourn. In darknessI reach out for light Sighs from above rain down on me. Pitifulheart always alon.e Face down I lay, I'm forced to lick the earth.Cold rain drops far, covering me, soothing my pain. Swelling eyes,fill with blood, blinding me, visions of red. Bitter sweet, tasteof life, broken man, I spit on your gift.
3. Suffer the Red Dream
I can see the twilight and twisted shadows it creates. I can hearthe heartbeat of lifes lost sorrow. Never once can one man dreamthe absence of a holy shrine. Eating dirt to fill this void thatremains empty and dry. Liquid from my tears that plummet foreternity, help to drown the flowers and sprout yet another cry.For all these fallen angels and the Gods in which they serve,where will they go when it all comes crashing down? Your smiledoesn't help me and your laughter holds no joy. I never asked foryour pity, or your worthless love. All of this means nothing to aheart that does not beat, for this is no salvation and thedarkness shrouds my face. In between this granite frown and asmile made from blood, the placement of my hands shall cover myeyes of black. No words can leave my mouth for my throat is coarseand dry, and my legs quake beneath me, falling before my pain.Kneel before the suffering and cover your face with earth. Smotheryourself with elegance and dream the dream of red.
4. All the Beauty Twice Again
A moonlit breeze softly flows past the ancient night. Alwayscalling out to the saints who hear nothing. Never to see theroyality of age, and the beauty of life. Fortune comes for allman, inside a fragile wish. Forever sending guides of hope untothis very flame. To burn away every dream. All the beauty, twiceagain. To whisper in the wind. Follow me to the edge of the sun,where only the coldest of hearts can survive. Laughing to mock me,in sadness we dwell. Standing alone, all time stands still, foryou.
5. Reaping Forest Calm
Cowards form the veil. Sampling of the salt. Desire looking glass.In evening they shall come. Pity stains our hands. Insects bite myeyes. Forever calling home. Reaping forest calm. Long painfulhymns, a dirge of blackened day. Falling to my knees to kiss thehorses tongue. Moonlight invades, cancerous lust. Drawing a smile,bold men have tried. With sugar we taste, through darkness wefall. In memories lost hope, I seal my eyes. Through vertigo'stouch, and a northern winds breeze, onward I search and foreverI'm lost. It feels like an eternity since I last saw the light onyour face, and if I recall, you left me the wind and taught me tofly. I must have you for one last time and I will pay for my sinswith one thousand lashes from the roses stem across the very chestthat holds my beating heart.
6. Before the Wind
Embrace the silence and listen to me. Our time is short and mywords are pure. For every song the angels sing and for every leafthat falls, I will be thinking of you and I'll blow you a kiss. Iused to dream of the blue in your eyes, now my dreams are colorblind. Clenching my fist to crush this pain, Its always the hatein my smile that devours me. Transcending down far beneath mymeans. A final breath of you to keep with me. Infantile tears aremelting the morning snow. And shiver I will, for the heat in youis gone. Never forget to smile as you look upon this world.Somewhere I'll remain alone thinking of the morning past.
7. For Every Leaf That Falls
A feather falls and ripples cross the pond. Reaching the end ofnothing, turning stone to dust. Careless are the children who failto see the means. Splash away the visions of serenity forgotten.
8. Serenity Forgotten
Enjoy the sunlight and ride the winds. Forever warm, for I seenow, happiness facades my sorrow. This outer smile is torn bygrief, and my sunlight soon fades away, and I watch in silence.Lost here in a poetic trance, my paradise pounds inside my chest.I remember the days forever with unopened eye. As quickly as itall began, the darkness overwhelms my joy. How is this so? How canit all be gone? Is there no solution? Welcome to my mind. Is thereno help for me? Forever with unopened eye.
9. Forever With Unopened Eye
And here we walk eluding the night. Telling you tales of how I amlost. You know things now that I can't explain. And I must avoidyour beg for words. I can see by the look in your eyes, the trustyou once had is gone. I can't hide from what I am. Come with meand leave this behind. Close your eyes and dream of me. Waste notyour time for now dawn breaks. Shield myself from the tears onyour cheek. Open my arms to greet your embrace. Hold me closelyand absorb my warmth. Let me go now and tremble alone. Together wecan hear The screaming butterfly. United as one Gods will fall totheir knees.
